Joan Rivers is with her daughter Melissa every day. Still.

She’s in the 76,000 index cards — each with a typed joke — that she left behind. She’s there every time Melissa sits at home in sweats and the voice of Joan reminds her: “A little lip gloss never hurt anybody.”

“Even from the afterlife, she tells me what to do,” Melissa said of her famous mom, who passed away in 2014. “The thing is, with my mother’s voice, I spend most of my time running trying to get away from that squawk — because, let me tell you, it is in my head all the time.

“People are always like ‘Do you hear her voice?’ Unfortunately, too much!”

On the weekend of the Oscars, as with every awards show, Melissa — who Melissa has a new book, “Lies My Mother Told Me,” out April 12 — was bombarded by friends and fans asking: “WWJD?” (What Would Joan Do?) After all, the legendary comedian hosted used to work the red carpet with a microphone and barbs at the ready, and hosted E!’s fabulously snarky “Fashion Police” with her daughter for years.

“I kept getting tagged all over Instagram — people saying, ‘Where was she for this!?’” Melissa, 54, said of the moments after Will Smith slapped Chris Rock onstage.
