This just in from the Twitter of Ms Joan Collins...

"Am going to do an ep of Rules of Engagement CBS's top comedy Its very funny - stay tuned "

77 and still working, albiet in a mediocre sitcom, you go girl!

It isn't actually their top sitcom, but it is now that Joan is involved!

It'll be the first and last time I watch the show...unless Joan books another appearance on it.

Joan having to be on a show with David Spade, I hope she gets her flea spray.

On the other hand, Patrick Warburton would have been a good love interest for Alexis.

I think Heather Locklear was on this show at one point. If they were clever they'd have her and Joan face off.

Joan is playing David Spade's MOM! And the two of them, by the sounds of it, really hit it off.

Joan will be on The Talk to promote her appearance November 4th, Sharon Osbourne and Joan on the same couch?! Let the sparks fly!

And I'm not surprised!

Those two kind of make you think they'd be explosive together!

I wonder if Joan wore her own clothes for the taping.

She certainly did. Own clothes, own jewelry, own wig, own makeup, own everything.

I wonder if she will have to get rid of that fur after David Spade got his paws on it.

OK. Dumb question: why is she wearing wigs?

I look forward to this. I do think Joan looks great these days. I wish she could get a good gig one of these days. The one on Footballers Wives had potential, but the storyline was terrible and didn't fit the show.

Joan and David, from all reports, got on like a house on fire. If anything, that fur is going to get framed.

Joan has always said she's got bad, flat, fine hair. In her HELLO layout Joan sported wigs and her own natural hair (her natural hair is when she's on her terrace having breakfast). I think her natural hair looks fine. But for television, I can understand wanting the extra volume from a wig. Plus, wigs are easy, no styling required.

Me too. So much.

Joan's playing mom to the biggest queen in sitcoms? Lovely.

It really doesn't look that thin. The hair style is atrocious, though.

Aww, I think her hair looks nice, light, wispy and natural. You can see that they took a curling iron to it to give it some shape. But see, look at the top of her head (more obvious in candid shots), her hair is very flat and though she has a nice amount of it, it is thin and has no body. Not thin as in "bald" just thin like cornsilk.

I mentioned this in the Fabulous Stylish Women of Daytime Thread, but my friend who works with JC passed along a photo of her on set decked out in cream dress and coat with black leather gloves.

Lesley-Anne Down is wearing wigs, too.
