Why can't I assign a rotation to a rigidbody Object?

Question

I have a character completely made out of parts, with rigid bodies and joints. I am trying to assign the rotation of the LowerTorso to the rotation of the Camera. It is not working. What am I doing wrong?

 using System.Collections;
 using System.Collections.Generic;
 using UnityEngine;
 
 public class LowerTorsoRotation : MonoBehaviour {
     public GameObject Camera;
     // Use this for initialization
     void Start () {
 
     }
     
     // Update is called once per frame
     void Update () {
         transform.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(transform.rotation.x,Camera.transform.rotation.y,transform.rotation.z);
     }
 }

You have to set the rotation with Rigidbody.rotation.

Something like this:

  using System.Collections;
  using System.Collections.Generic;
  using UnityEngine;
  
  public class LowerTorsoRotation : MonoBehaviour {
      public GameObject Camera;
      private Rigidbody rigidbody;
      // Use this for initialization
      void Start () {
          rigidbody = GetComponent<Rigidbody>();
      }
      
      // Update is called once per frame
      void Update () {
          rigidbody.rotation = Quaternion.Euler(transform.rotation.x,Camera.transform.rotation.y,transform.rotation.z);
      }
  }
