FACEBOOKStar is highly intelligent and has always been very attractive. It is too bad that so many shallow women cannot accept how witty and truly listen and appreciate this very smart woman and instead choose to comment on her appearance. I would like to see just what they look like. On second thought, maybe not. Rosie is also very intelligent and witty. It is too bad that those ABC Dummies could not see that Star, Rosie and Joy would have made 'The View' an all out success again! Thank God that Court TV had enough sense to put the 'Star' back on.
Star Jones: I’d Have Rosie on My Show

Star Jones Reynolds said she would be happy to have Rosie O’Donnell as a guest on her new talk show, despite the comedian’s past criticism of Reynolds.
"I don't have any reason to not want to sit down and chat with her," Reynolds said. "She's smart, she's funny, she's in your face - that's the kind of guest you want on the show."
The new show on Court TV will deal with criminal justice issues as well as pop culture.
Reynolds, who is also a lawyer, was an original co-host on ABC's The View, starting in 1997. She left the show in 2006 and was later replaced by O’Donnell, who openly castigated Reynolds for dodging rumors that she had gastric bypass surgery.
In the past, Reynolds, 45, has attributed her dramatic weight loss to a sensible diet and Pilates.
“Pilates my ass,” O’Donnell said last year. “That’s how she said she lost 200 pounds. Here’s what annoys me about Star Jones. As a former fatty, she has an obligation to her tribe. And to write a book about how to be the perfect woman that she now is, and to leave out gastric bypass…it’s just like selling bullshit to the point that it’s sickening.”
O’Donnell added: “She pretends that she was never one of us.”
Reynolds is finally addressing speculation about her weight loss in a story for the September issue of Glamour magazine titled “Getting Over Myself.”
"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," she said. "And I thought that that would be the most effective way to answer everybody's questions."
Reynolds told the Associated Press Radio News that she has no problem seeing photos of herself from when she was heavier.
"I actually like seeing the old pictures because what it says to me is, 'You never allow yourself to get there again,'" she said. "It was dangerous to me. Very dangerous. I was killing myself."

If Rosie cut off her head she'd shed about 100 lbs.

I agree with all who say the Ms. Jones Reynolds has lost too much weight, however the only thing that matters is that she is healthy and happy. As for the other members of the cast of the view. I think most times its an act for the public.

10:29 I think its hilarious that people talk about taking quotes out of context. That happens to Bush all the time. You like Rosie? How do you feel about Michael Moore? He is the KING of taking quotes out of context to make his point.

Get it straight, US. Star wasn't replaced by Rosie. Rosie replaced Meredith Viera in the end chair, leading the conversations as Meredith did, before she left for the "Today" show. Star's chair hasn't been filled. You can learn this quite simply by going to the website for The View.
Second, Rosie didn't insult Star. She simply pointed out that Star didn't lose the weight just by doing Pilates, as Star had claimed. Rosie's point (when taken in context, unlike the quote US has in this article) was that if Star chose to say anything at all about how she lost weight, it should be the truth - or she should just keep her mouth shut if she was just going to lie about it.
I canceled my subscription to US because of the way the mag takes quotes out of context and LIES to sell magazines. I'd rather spend my periodical budget on a magazine that has higher integrity.

I like Elizabeths point of view. If we all had the same ideas how boring would that be. Don't we all know by now it isn't one or the other, it's somewhere in the middle. Common ground. Compromise. Elizabeth does a good job for the republican side, I'm republican but don't agree with everything she says. I am sad to see a radical on any side. Star was always calm and funny. Rosie would make for good ratings, but Star is above that. Maybe she is trying to be the new Star. EH isn't an idiot because she loves this country too. What's so bad about that?

5:51--if her and Elisabeth got along so great, why isn't she asking HER to be on the show....doesn't want to tank her ratings, or maybe their getting along was for the camera only...on second thought, I wouldn't brag about it or advertise it either if I got along with Elisabeth.

About Star,
Hun you were beautiful way before you went on this diet. Before she lost all this weight, she was plump and had this natural and beautiful glow about her, that made ppl realize size didnt matter. Now she looks like she has just come out of a concetration camp, and has aged 20 years. I am afraid to look at her, cuz she looks so incredibly creepy and non human now.
I wish she never fell into the world of size 0.

Elisabeth Hasselback is a Great American Embarrassment. Star Jones should have never been let go for accepting things, she should have rather been disciplined and made to talk about the Hollywood shame of gifts. Now Elisabeth Hasselback gets a pedestal for Republicans because she's the only one ignorant enough to say something. SHAME ON YOU BARBAR WALTERS. Get some quality "Views".

WHAT??? Why would you invite someone on your show that insults you? Is Star desperate? Rosie can disappear off the face of the earth for all I care. Why are people so afraid of her? I would've stood up to her fat a$$ a long time ago if she insulted me. What would she do? Sit on me? She'd have to catch me first.

I like Star, she always had something smart to say. And I am happy she lost weight, she needed to. And so what if she didn't want to tell people how she did it. People act like it's their right to know what happens to celebs. Star takes the high road, she never bashed Rosie. And I bet they would have fun talking about their back stabbing time on the view!
Won't anyone forgive this woman? So she went bridezilla, big whoop. And she has never spoken badly of Rosie.
