Comedian and TV host Joan Rivers has died, her daughter has said.
Rivers, 81, had been on life support in Mount Sinai Hospital since having a cardiac arrest in New York last week.
In a statement, her daughter Melissa said she died surrounded by family and friends, and she thanked hospital staff for their "amazing care".
The comedian stopped breathing during a procedure on her vocal chords at an outpatient clinic last Thursday.
"My mother's greatest joy in life was to make people laugh. Although that is difficult to do right now, I know her final wish would be that we return to laughing soon.".

Thoughts with her family, I never realised she was so old though. I'm just happy she got moved from IC to somewhere more comfortable before she died.

Very sad indeed. Was a massive fan of hers but went off her recently after her Palestine comments. That said, she was truly influential in terms of female comedians. She'll be missed and her legacy will last a lifetime.

That is very sad. And all because of a throat examination.
Nobody could drag people as well as Joan http://i.imgur.com/sFJlbJw.gif RIP

didn't like her that much and didnt feel anything at first when I heard she died
then I felt bad and cant imagine what her family are going through. R.I.P, at least she made some people laugh.

A lot of the time it seems like she was controversial just to get publicity or for laughs.

There's saying things for shock and laughs and there is just being a twat tbh. No excusing saying innocent children deserve being killed and branding them "stupid". The whole laughing at people's appearance or dress sense thing isn't really funny to me either, but I know some do find it funny so fair enough.

Joan Rivers: Doctor Reveals Cause Of Death
[A medical examiner finally rules on the 81-year-old comedian's death,
which came after she underwent a routine medical procedure.
Joan Rivers died from low blood oxygen during a routine medical procedure,
a medical examiner has determined.
The comedian passed away on 4 September, a week after she suffered cardiac arrest
during a procedure at a Manhattan clinic to check out voice changes and reflux.
The 81-year-old star died from "anoxic encephalopathy due to hypoxic arrest",
or brain damage due to lack of oxygen, a spokeswoman for the
city's medical examiner said on Thursday.]
If only she never went to that team
