Joan Rivers has an opinion on just about everything—and Angelina Jolie's recent admission that she underwent a preventive double mastectomy is no exception."I think what she did is absolutely, incredibly brave and wonderful for women and women's self-image," the 80-year-old entertainer and Fashion Police host said in an exclusive sit-down with E! News."For all these women that are going through this and going, 'Oh my God, I am not a woman anymore,' here is one of the most beautiful women in the world saying, 'This is what I have done, and I am still Angelina Jolie,'" Rivers gushed about the Oscar winner."She is someone every woman can look up to, saying, 'If she can do it, I can do it,'" the usually far-more-critical comedian continued.But then the Joan we rely on for our weekly dose of starlet-skewering reappeared."It affected me so much I took three jokes out about her in my act. Do you understand how upsetting that is?" she groaned. "That dumb bitch. Those big, stupid vagina lips. And now I can't say anything!" But, on a more serious note, Rivers acknowledges that having one's health is pretty much the thing to be grateful for."I am very, very lucky," she said. "I am 80 years old and I have—big deal—a bad knee, but that goes back to hockey in elementary school...But I am very lucky, very healthy."So I walk out of here and I drop dead, this would be my last interview," she cracked. "You could sell it for a fortune."
