Star Blasts Barbara–She Said WHAT?

I think Star Jones’ weight loss has gone to her head. Either that or she accidentally lost a few brain cells when she trying to shed pounds in her mid-section. You’d think after all that the former “View” co-host has gone through in the public eye during the last few years she would have learned that keeping her mouth shut (and not just around food) can be quite beneficial. Unfortunately, the world learned today that Star Jones has yet to learn how powerful silence can really be. Less than 24 hours after her former boss Barbara Walters (you know, the … Continue reading →

Star Jones Reynolds Returns To TV

She took a hike when she learned that she was getting the boot, and now Star Jones Reynolds says she’s ready to make her big comeback. You’ll remember last June Reynolds made her now infamous exit from daytime’s chat fest, “The View” in true diva-like fashion. (To recap: Last spring, the 44-year-old co-host was told her contract was not going to be renewed, but she beat producers to the punch by announcing she was quitting. The move angered show creator Barbara Walters, and Reynolds was banned from the program.) Now Reynolds is returning to TV as host of her own … Continue reading →

It’s Over!

A number of celebrity couples are headed for splitsville, which in and of itself is not that newsworthy given that divorces are a dime a dozen in Tinseltown. However, when you are talking about a celeb who made sure her wedding was the talk of the town long before (and well after) she walked down the aisle you know tongues are going to wag. Yes, it’s true; the romance is over for Star Jones and her husband Al Reynolds. According to the former “View” co-host (who characteristically decided to release a statement to TV’s “Entertainment Tonight”), she filed divorce papers … Continue reading →

Celeb Update: Gone and Not Forgotten

GONE! So much for Star Jones’s big TV comeback. The ex-“View” co-host spent months promoting her latest venture–“The Star Jones Show”—–but now it appears the program couldn’t live up to the hype. According to show producers, Jones’ show is getting axed from the TruTV (formerly Court TV) line-up. The network says the move was a “mutual agreement” between Jones and TruTV execs. Network bigwigs also noted that they plan to rebrand and refocus remaining programs. In the meantime, Jones will continue as a contributing legal expert on the network’s weekday “IN SESSION” trial coverage. If you’ve never seen the program … Continue reading →

A View of “The View’s” New Season

Did greed get in the way of making the ladies a quintet? Will Elizabeth give birth on air? And will Whoopi really last the entire season? Those questions and more should be answered in the coming weeks as ABC’s daytime chatfest kicks off its 11th season on September 4th. Yesterday the network unveiled the official promo shot for “The View,” and new moderator Whoopi Goldberg doesn’t look as uncomfortable as I thought she might. I know she willing took the job, so why should she look repulsed in the shot that has a very pregnant Elizabeth Hasselbeck smashed up against … Continue reading →

Actors Reveal Deep Dark Secrets

I didn’t think Isaiah Washington had any more secrets. And I certainly wouldn’t have expected that Star Jones Reynolds would be the one to reveal them. But, in a move that the former “View” co-host deemed “completely unscripted,” the former “Grey’s Anatomy” star shared news that he says not many of his fans are aware of: his father was murdered and heard about it on the evening news. The actor’s revelation was a dramatic on-air surprise for Reynolds who was interviewing Washington for her new show on CourtTV. According to Reynolds, one innocent question led to the shocking reveal. “I … Continue reading →

Coming Clean—Maybe

It was a “hot topic” on the show she formerly co-hosted, but now Star Jones Reynolds says she wants to extinguish the fanfare that surrounded her dramatic weight loss. The talk show host has decided to write an article for Glamour magazine in an effort to set the record straight. “I wrote an article because I really wanted to go as in-depth as possible about the way I’ve changed physically over the last 10 years on the air,” the 45-year-old criminal justice reporter recently told media reps while promoting her new Court TV (soon to be truTV) talk show. “And … Continue reading →

Boy Bander’s New Title

Former ‘N Sync hottie (and onetime aspiring cosmonaut) Lance Bass has a new gig—–book author. Apparently, the heartthrob is making like Jenna Bush and penning a new book, but unlike the first daughter’s foray into the literary world, Bass plans to make his a tell all. According to news reports, the 27-year-old plans to reveal “all about his life, his music and his sexuality.” The memoir, entitled, Out of Sync, will hit stores in October.
