Joan Rivers Zings Foes, Old & New

By PopEater Staff Posted Aug 5th 2009 10:07AM

Joan Rivers has been getting into the spirit of her upcoming Comedy Central roast (airing Aug. 9) by zipping some zingers at random celebrities in recent days. Check out a few choice jibes:

On Jon Gosselin, to Page Six: "I'm disgusted by him. Here's a guy with eight kids who runs off to 'find himself' -- well, he should have found himself a condom."

On Brooke Shields, to TMZ: "I'd love to roast Brooke Shields. Michael's dearest friend. She hasn't seen him since 1993! ... It's called face time." (Referring to Shields' eulogy at Michael Jackson's memorial service.)

On Jay Leno, to the TV Critics Association: "I think it's brilliant that Leno is at 10 p.m. because America can get bored more easily and go to sleep earlier ... It will be nice for the Midwest because their crops will be greener."
