E! Network has yet to decide whether hit show Fashion Police can continue without its famed host.
As
the world came to grips with the sad passing of Joan Rivers on
Thursday, the broadcaster announced the future of her style panel show
was uncertain.
Issuing
two statements, E! said the network and its stars needed to mourn the
loss of the sharp tongued comedian and the driving force of the program
before a decision could be made.
A spokesperson for E! confirmed to Deadline
that no decisions were being made yet: 'Right now we are mourning our
beloved Joan. We will respond at a later date with programming updates.'
Earlier
on Thursday, prior to the announcement the 81-year-old had passed away,
E! said in the immediate future, the popular show will be on a two week
hiatus.
'E!
will not be producing a new Fashion Police this week or next. Instead,
we will be airing two E! From Fashion Week specials that will deliver
the latest news and information from the highly-anticipated event.'
As the guiding force of the program, Joan
led co-hosts Giuliana Rancic, Kelly Osbourne and George Kotsiopoulos
since 2010 on the show that picked apart celebrity fashion on the red
carpet.
