Rivers: 'Angelina Jolie is stupid'

Rex Features

Comedian Joan Rivers has described Angelina Jolie as a "stupid actress".

The American comic, who is currently performing A Work In Progress By A Life In Progress onstage in London, said it was a pleasant surprise to work with intelligent co-stars.

She told GMTV: "I'm finding actresses are smarter than I thought.

"Well I've worked with stupid actresses. I've worked with Angelina Jolie - she saw a sign that said 'Wet Floor' one time, and she did!

"I mean she's attractive, but not a bright girl. Stunningly beautiful but stupid. She would have asked Stevie Wonder, 'What's your favourite colour?'"
