Joan Rivers, who died on Thursday at 81, made a joke of everything, including her own funeral. In her 2013 book, I Hate Everyone...Starting with Me, she outlined her wishes, as Mashable's Brian Ries tweeted.
"When I die (and yes, Melissa, that day will come; and yes, Melissa, everything's in your name), I want my funeral to be a huge showbiz affair with lights, camera, action…"
"I want Craft services, I want paparazzi and I want publicists making a scene! I want it to be Hollywood all the way."
"I don't want some rabbi rambling on; I want Meryl Streep crying, in five different accents."
"I don't want a eulogy; I want Bobby Vinton to pick up my head and sing 'Mr. Lonely.'"

"I want to look gorgeous, better dead than I do alive. I want to be buried in a Valentino gown and I want Harry Winston to make me a toe tag."
"And I want a wind machine so that even in the casket my hair is blowing just like Beyoncé's."
May all your wishes come true, Joan.
