On Thursday, Pink News posted an interview from Rivers' interview with Gay Times where she mentioned how great Michelle Obama, the spouse of President Obama, would be in the race.
"Oh, come on!" the comedian told the magazine. "All I'm saying is she's got a great body, very masculine arms, very tall, wears wigs. She could easily go on RuPaul's show!"

While it's doubtful that Obama would actually compete in the race, there's always a chance that she might be a guest judge one day. But that's probably not what Rivers was referring to.
The Fashion Police star who died in September also pointed out that her jokes were never meant to be offensive.
"My comments are never made to be nasty," Rivers said. "They're made to be funny and make people laugh at situations. That's what a comedian's job is!"
Speaking of 'nasty comments,' RuPaul's Drag Race had a bit of a controversy last season during a "Female vs. She-Male" challenge that the contestants participated in. In an interview with Washington Blade, former contestant Courtney Act dished on how she didn't think that was meant to hurt anyone.
"I thought it was probably a little ill thought out," the Season 6 queen said. "I don't think it was intentionally meant to be offensive, but I guess the thing about transphobia, homophobia, and kind of phobia, is that it often stems from ignorance not from intentionally trying to put someone down."
