Joan Rivers officiates impromptu gay wedding at New York City book signing
The comedian oversaw the wedding of two of her fans while promoting her new book at a local Barnes & Nobles on Monday.
“While we were waiting, we were reading the book,” Joe Aiello told “Entertainment Tonight,” referring to himself and his partner, Jed Ryan. “She had mentioned in there about ... being an ordained minister, and I jokingly asked (Ryan), ‘Do you think it’s true? Maybe she’ll marry us.’ And he goes, ‘Ask her!’ So I did.”
“Neither one of us thought she would say yes,” Ryan said.
