Joan Rivers with Bo Derek on the Tonight Show (1984), Part 2

[@johnsjohnson448]

This is a terrific interview! When Joan Rivers guest hosted for Mr. Carson, it was always an epic event. Thanks for sharing.

[@XmalD73]

Joan was wicked smart!! She responded perfectly to Bo’s comments.

[@SnowboardJedi]

Rivers got killed for letting the cat out of the bag on Obama being gay and Michelle Obama a tr@$$y

[@everythingisaprocess]

For all the people attacking Bo Derek, I can see both point of views. Bo is simply saying that some people are sensitive and may take offense to Joan's raunchy humor - which is very true. Joan is saying that it is all for entertainment and if someone lets her know they are offended, she would stop. I can understand both sides.

[@infowazz]

+everythingisaprocess bo is a very sensitive kind person. that is why she avoids the moronic public.

[@MrDavfit]

Joan was Great turning this interview around

[@infowazz]

+MrDavfit not really

[@killa46464]

Very brave of Bo to speak her mind with clarity and authenticity . And Joan was as quick as a whip . They were like two very different personality sisters having a good ole squabble , which ended with a better comprehension , respect and empathy for each others opinion . Loved watching this , even if it was a little awkward . I love Bo’s dress , and she is incredibly radiant . So Blessed with beauty , as well as humour and a sweet & kind nature too . ❤

[@JeffBeaverTV]

Bo is so young here and I'm sure Age had everything to do with how sensitive she was. Joan handled this like an absolute Pro

[@dappylu]

She was 27 here.

[@antoniokinsey4041]

Nice interview. Both Joan and Bo did great.

[@sawdust2556]

Joan Rivers was kind and brilliant, and Bo is intelligent and lovely beyond words.❤

[@andytaylor4655]

bo has great common sense and beauty. I like Joan Rivers too. Just two different personalities here.

[@infowazz]

+Andy Taylor i have to agree. bo is a sweet soul.

[@debraabbadessa897]

She wasn’t her own person,she was in love with him and did and thought like him

[@hiskelogtens664]

I love how she responds to Joans question about weight and not having a weighting scale and just to enjoy the pleasure of eating

[@bunnybastille1]

Thanks very much for your kind reply. It is appreciated.

[@elisaabigailthompson4547]

Bo is a beautiful, kind, sweet, gentle, shy ,classy lady ! There is nothing wrong in her behavior in this interview she conducted herself with dignity and intelligence here. She cares deeply about animals which shows she has tremendous empathy. People finding fault with Bo are just haters filled to the brim with jealousy . This lady is darn near perfect and all these people are insulting her because they wish they looked like her. By the way, who cares if she is democret ? What does that have anything to do with this interview ? Gosh , people are so salty and pretentious , you all make me sick. God bless Bo with a long and happy life.

[@mJoN3s-w6l]

Noone jealous of b.o. chill man. Chill.

[@jameecampbell6653]

A Democrat!? Arrrahhh lol

[@underzog]

Bo Derek is a poised and beautiful woman.. Joan was a bang up comedian and interviewer.

[@markhernandez6317]

You had to love Joan Rivers!

[@erichan7270]

Bo is a natural beauty. Her makeup is not overdone and natural looking. Her skin glows. Not to mention her beautiful hair! This was 1984 and her dress would still pass as stylish today, in 2025. It looks beautiful on her!

[@td2926]

Joan handled this like a professional, Bo thought she insulted forgetting that Joan is a comedian.

[@sheemakarp6424]

This 👍🏽

[@lolachiconila7650]

Bo Derek was a 10 i must say , love combo between Joan Rivers & Bo LOL funny

[@soupful]

By Adam's does Bo mean the Universal Pictures Film "Eve and that Damned Apple" to be shot in New Zealand that got scrapped just week's before Principal photography ? Locations were locked in, sets, production crew , some cat and Universal pulled the plug on Producer-Star Bo Derek as Eve and husband director John.

[@soupful]

No doubt with Bo and John would have looked great cinematography wise, as for script comedy-romance who can say but after "Tarzan" at 5 and half million budget made domesticaly 31 million plus more international would have told Universal let the Derek's make "Eve and that Damned Apple" for another 5 million + to gross 3 to 5 times more and Universal pulled the plug just as was to start actual filming. Darn shame. Bo isnt good actress but has elevated with age by time, John stinks as actor-director but photography cinematographer is AWESOME!

[@coda_o7]

I'm sure being a public figure and having people write about her in the papers was so difficult for Bo. Joan making jokes about her must have just been so hurtful. Nevermind that Joan always made as many jokes at her own expense as she's made at the expense of other people......maybe Bo has lightened up since 1984 lol

[@harrysmith747]

If Bo doesn't like her why did she do the interview?

[@chaswr]

Gotta hand it to her for coming on with Joan

[@MrLC1965]

Bo Derek is a goddes. She completely eclipsed legends like Farrah Fawcett, Jaclyn Smith, Kim Basinger, Kelly Le Brock, Ursula Andress, Brigitte Bardot, and many many others. She stays in a class of her own; she is the best looking and coolest actress of all timrwith only one movie : 10

[@Melinda8162]

Totally! I always adored her, I thought so too that those you mentioned can't overshadow Bo!!

[@LinGin91]

Good for Derek. She doesn't need to pretend she's fine with Rivers' humor. Just because she says "Oh, that's awful. You should stop that and here's why..." It's not like she sued the woman for defamation. People love free speech until one person exercises her free speech in order to critique the speech of another. Two way street, folks. Most people in this comment section must think that Rivers is a pretty fragile little flower (haha) to give Derek so much shit for making Rivers explain and defend her style; clearly the woman could handle herself.

[@johnkaras6384]

Joans comments and jokes are always in poor taste.

[@mp5249]

John Karas John Derek predated a high school girl when he was married to Linda Evans. Of course he was a creepy, controlling freak (as was later exposed by her). Joan says what everybody knows and is too cowardly to say.

[@kyliefan7]

What is the movie they are talking about?

[@maggietorro]

Bolero 1984

[@concretejungle550]

Every answer begins with WE🙄

[@granny58]

She's not an individual. She's an extension of him

[@SaxonC]

So many gorgeous people are dull in real life and rely on their looks to have people interested in them.

[@user-sm7og6fi3j]

Saxon C She’s sweet. I think some people are just jealous.

[@msr1116]

No, not jealousy but an accurate assessment of attractive women who don't grow and learn and expand their world. They remained limited and serve no purpose other than being trophies or to shore up an aging partner's ego in exchange for financial benefits. Great looks last only about fifteen years tops. Then there has to be more to sustain the next five, six decades of life.

[@owrang9756]

She is not dull at all but very sweet.

[@stumack9755]

tom cruise

[@debraabbadessa897]

I had a boyfriend that did try to control me ,but it never worked out ,but if I stayed with him I’m sure I would have been under his control

[@bunnybastille1]

I wonder why Miss Perfect is being so defensive and critical. Joan Rivers seems much nicer and is wearing a much prettier dress, by the way. I guess Bo's 'attributes' have gone to her head, where not much else resides.

[@mkay3535]

Bo is right in terms of Joan hurting people. Elizabeth Taylor said in an interview she felt hurt by Joan's jibes at her weight and made her want to binge more :/

[@michaelreilly3513]

liar

[@brihmendiola4347]

If Bo had said as she entered "Joan, the floor is wet in the greenroom but I didn't do ir" would have been hilsrious. But Bo Derek is so into herself and obviously had no sense of humor.

[@CrissyRed]

wow, looks like Bo Derek has NOOO sense of humor about herself..

[@infowazz]

+Crissy Red actually bo is a sensitive person. that comes across as having no sense of humor.

[@CrissyRed]

+Twaddles McGee I understand your point of view, I'm actually a fan of Bo Derek. What I don't understand is how you can leave such vile responses, using obscene language, and accusing people of very serious offenses. We all have the right to our opinions. I'm positive Bo Derek herself Would be disgusted by your behavior.

[@CrissyRed]

+Twaddles McGee I hope Bo Derek appreciates how vigilant your obsession for her is. God bless you

[@DA90027]

+Crissy Red im not a huge fan of hers I just call out stupidity...typical religious hypocrite

[@CrissyRed]

+Twaddles McGee thank goodness we have you protecting Internet for us all

[@patrice19791]

I think if there was anybody who was responsible for her reputation as dumb, it was her husband sadly. Her frustration should have been directed at him. He casted and directed her in multiple movies that exploited her sexually and only showcased her physical attributes in kind of a raunchy way. They certainly didnt showcase any acting ability

[@mJoN3s-w6l]

She wasn't that a gr8 actress you know. Eye candy.

[@granny58]

That's because she doesn't have any

[@12gossip90]

I love both ladies...wtbs bo derek took herself too serious, joans a comedian geesh. But bo was sooo gorgeous😍💗💕

[@timothyroberts2103]

One of the most beautiful women in the world gets her feelings hurt too!

[@eugenekestner1976]

I wouldn't trade her for all the women she is got what it takes God bless

[@debraabbadessa897]

Jon derrick did control her for sure

[@sheltondk43]

Right, you can be funny without being mean. This really is the reason I stopped enjoying Joan Rivers. She couldn't be funny without being mean. I appreciate Bo's bearing, here.

[@avadakedavra80]

you have posted this comment twice... on each video. plus you don't have the sense of humor.

[@mJoN3s-w6l]

B.O. is used to being told she's beautiful (she's a 7 in my books) by elderly John dare derek. Read sean derek book "cast of characters". Dats b.o.

[@annabellesinger3717]

She does take herself too seriously,but Joan always went too far!

[@infowazz]

+Belle Singer bo is sensitive, that simple

[@donrainesoh]

Belle Singer too far? You act like she was hitler

[@bjm.x]

It's clear that Bo has absolutely no sense of humor about herself. Takes herself way too seriously.

[@freedolphin3077]

You have to be a strong person to take jokes, it's actually an honor, It means you're still relevant. This woman slept with a big business man since she was 16, she had absolutely no acting skill, she's not ugly but she's not extremely beautiful either... she's not strong enough to take those jokes, that's all.

[@jameecampbell6653]

Not extremely - wrong!😂

[@andyl4822]

Blaaah! I'm sorry, I can tell I'm in the minority here based on the other comments, but I found Bo so TIRESOME in this interview. She comes off as affected, cloying, and her breathless earnestness just seems ... false. Affected. Whatever.

[@kellymartine68]

Elle est vraiment très jolie Bo Derek

[@anthonyv1719]

16 and hubby was 46! talk about robbing the cradle. Her husband had 3 of the most gorgeous wives. Bo went on a trip as a "babysitter" while hubby was on a holiday with his wife Linda Evans, while simultaneously banging the baby sitter. Bo later apologized for her actions to Linda.

[@almaacasiointal4158]

You didn’t prove to people that you’re not what you think they are. You only proved that you are. Don’t think BD is that Smart like LE.

[@joesiano9919]

How did this dud ever become a movie star the dud is Bo derrick I would rate her a 2 then a ten

[@markharrison2544]

She was only famous because of one film.

[@zainolrahamat1807]

I think I will like Bo only in movies not in person.

[@granny58]

She's bor ing and uninter esting

[@faboze]

JOAN IS THE BEST

[@infowazz]

+faboze she is a sarcastic succubus

[@LaraDavidson1]

Bo ist so beautiful

[@jimkreider9997]

Bo is certainly a beauty. But good grief Joan is a commediene. Just take it with grain of salt

[@funtimeslondon]

Bo Derek is so beautiful that she doesn't need a sense of humour. She has to spend her time defending herself. But I wonder which film it was because the films they made were not very good ... maybe Bolero?

[@theseeker1237]

Sad all around, didnt enjoy it at all. Bo looked great in 10, but after that....she had the wrong people in her life. Happens to most of us.

[@miryanastancheva9358]

sry joan is ways more stylish ... and attractive here ...

[@infowazz]

+Miryana Stancheva joan is a succubus beeyatch

[@funtimeslondon]

Bo is beautiful - and five foot three ... She doesn't have a sense of humour - but so what who cares? She is still beautiful ...

[@joetursi9573]

George Masters, make up man to the stars told me he thought she had the most perfectly beautiful face he had ever made up, usinhg just a bit of sometyhings.

[@AGC828]

No idea why "Bo" did that suddenly....go on the "attack" on then prime time TV....when the idea is to promote her next film or just talk and stay relevant. The point of talk show interviews. I mean, I've watched the Joan Rivers Show.....back in the day....YES, they (her brand of humor) does get annoying "poking fun at celebs...which are based on half-truths" has been done by other comics. Though they do it less....and knowing that was Joan's "schtick"...let it be.....was Bo on weed..."high"?? She was known for being a heavy weed smoker from the time she was 16, skipping school, hanging around on beaches getting high... That aside...she was beautiful for sure an dhad a nice figure....what gets me today is how tiny she actually is. I used to think she was almost 6 fteet tall.....she's actualy only a hiar over 5'1 :)) Yet they marketed her so well back then....used the right camera angles in her films... Odd observation--lot of the biggest stars ar "tiny"---Lady Gaga--just a little over 5'1, Tom Chruise--little over 5'6, Shania Twain -under 5'3.....top porn stars are under 5'3.....shrug.... Actually...if you look at Bo's face "critically" she isn't a "beautiul" a they made her out to be. If you can see past the makeup....e.g. her head chape, "round" forehead...she just had a face "makeup people could work with"....

[@debraabbadessa897]

Bo Derek was under John Derek spell on her ,he told her how to be and was abusing her as what he wanted her tombe

[@paulbradley705]

It's easy forgetting joan is a comedian.i forget everytime she attempts a joke.

[@Zeldagirl64]

Like Joan

[@summerholliday44]

back off the Elizabeth Taylor jokes that's not funny

[@andyl4822]

Joan followed the golden rule in comedy (especially insult comedy): she never punched down. You don't pick on someone in a position of less authority, status, or power than you. Elizabeth Taylor is one of the most famous and most successful entertainers in Hollywood of all time. I'm not saying that means she doesn't have feelings or deserve humanity like anyone else. I'm just saying, she's not being bullied. She's stratospheres above a raunchy, self-deprecating cable tv comedienne, which is why people don't feel badly for laughing along, because they know she's doing just fine regardless of what Rivers jokes about that day. And Rivers knows that too. She knows she's lower on the totem poll and references that fact frequently to poke fun at herself. It's part of the act/context to any jokes she does make at the expense of others. Now the tabloids and their ruthless mockery of Taylor's weight (complete with unflattering paparazzi photos) was a different story. That was malicious and delivered by hack "writers" without a shred of humor.

[@paulbradley705]

Like the Sam Fox interview Joan was outwitted by a much younger woman. Joan called her dumb them smart.Hypocritical Joan always backstabbed and disguised it as humour. Only her self effacing humour is a tiny hit funny.

[@janetfigley1026]

Yikes.. Joan has her # times 1000. Ahhw.

[@johnknowing-zr8de]

Bo Derek another insecure Democrat that cant take a joke BUT she will take the MONEY . Shes a DRIP BORING crybaby. I did't see her complaining bout all the men that wanted to bed her at night

[@nancycamp-nelson5253]

Actually she is not a Dim.. On her twitter account she posts on the anniversaries of Green Beret that gave their live, and salutes them. Very much for veterans, and animal welfare.

[@johnknowing-zr8de]

Nancy Camp-Nelson Bingo Another democrat for BS "animal welfare" I've listen to this Dem thing for decades!!! But those Dems dont give a rats ass about their poverty voter base Just feed them and they will vote for you for over 50 years Then forget them until next election Look how Dems turned the simple thing of owning a dog into a CULT social status God forbid if you dont get a "rescue dog" and then you hear the WHOLE story behind it. Dems ruse about Medical pot was really about Dems wanted to SMOKE their Pot to relax because they are neurotic insecure people. I told my Dem freind you watch as SOON as this MED pot gets approved next will be personal pot grown at home for Dems to get high and that was the REAL reason for Med Pot to pass. Then Dems keep selling make pot legal so we don't have prison overcrowding Now its reduce th. she is dimwit and what you posted has ZERO to do with NOT being one By your brainwashing you think what she's a Rep because of the veterans thing, which is prevalent that way and never should be

[@nancycamp-nelson5253]

More than aware of those Dims. I grew up in Madison WI and moved back in the late 90's. A perfect example of a city being destroyed by them. With that being said, Bo is a GOP. Met with President Bush, and probably President Trump, don't know that for a fact. honorary member of the Green Berets. Has her own dog products line that subsidizes animal charities. Was put on the race horse commission by then gov. Schwarzenegger to help protect the horses themselves. So no, Bo is not one of those Hollywood fakes, but is a genuine caring non-liberal person. Everything you wrote about the Dims is right on. But don't group her in with that sad, USA destroying group. @@johnknowing-zr8de

[@funtimeslondon]

Tell you what - Bo Derek comes across more intelligent than Trump! She can put a more interesting sentence together.

[@biancadevino]

what? LOL

[@troyott2334]

Aryan Goddess

[@cheryldevine42]

Bo is very classy. Joan was not. That is what this video is about. Respect others.
