Joan Rivers might not be up for the Supreme Court, but you can add her to the list of famous people who’ve been accused of sexual harassment -- and it’s all caught on tape!
Here’s how it went down: The 78-year-old funny lady, on Tuesday’s Joan & Melissa: Joan Knows Best, was in a meeting with staffers of her company Joan Rivers Worldwide, appraising various pieces of jewelry.

She used one female worker as a live mannequin of sorts, getting hands-on and appraising the jewelry (and perhaps the employee, a tad too close for comfort).

"Peek-a-boo, look at you today," the raspy-voice septuagenarian told the employee (in reference to her breasts), who was noticeably uncomfortable during the segment.
The woman went on to report to a superior the incident in which she said Joan was "putting all the jewelry on me and pulling my sweater back and touching my breasts."
