At the age of 81, Joan Rivers passed away from a routine throat procedure at Mount Sinai Hospital. The outpouring of support from Hollywood was enormous, as this comedic trailblazer was remembered for her outlandish and fearless sense of humour.

Soon after the horrible news of Joan’s passing, CTV caught up with fellow superstar comedian Carla Collins as she recounted her time spent with the formidable Joan Rivers.

It was a big day at the zoo, as it marks the 1 year anniversary of the arrival of two giant pandas, Er Shun and Da Mao. The pandas arrived at Person International Airport a year ago today with the help of FedEx; their arrival generated more media attention than the Queen! Toronto will be home to these playful creatures for five years until their journey continues to Calgary. Starlight Canada had the opportunity to see the pandas up close and personal, while being featured on Canada A.M. Check out some of the pictures from the exciting morning!
