Star Jones to Make Guest Appearance on ‘The View’
Star Jones is returning to The View! The former co-host, who left in acrimonious circumstances back in 2006 (her and Barbara Walters had quite the tiff, it was reported) will appear on the daytime talk show on February 22.
Jones, one of the five original co-hosts of the show, left in 2006, taking Walters somewhat by surprise with her swift exit announcement. Reportedly, Walters refused to let her back the next day, and later revealed that Jones had asked her co-hosts to lie on her behalf, by not mentioning how Jones had undergone gastric bypass surgery while still presenting the show.
Star Jones rapidly fired back, criticizing Walters for penning an autobiography that revealed details of an affair. Essentially, the whole tiresome debate was about people sticking their noses in one another’s business.
Time heals however, and Walters will share the stage with Jones for her return. While the comeback is a one-off affair, it’s for a fine cause: Jones is appearing to promote an awareness campaign about heart disease among women.
By unhappy coincidence, Jones and Walters both underwent open heart surgery within two months of each other in 2010 – both to have faulty heart valves repaired.
And now Jones is returning to talk up her role in the American Heart Association’s “Go Red for Women” public information campaign. On February 3, women across the States will be asked to wear red to support heart patients.
Will you be looking forward to Star Jones’ return to The View? Or do you think the show has gone from strength to strength without her?

Feb 22, 2012
Not I! And not a fan.
Feb 22, 2012
Who cares? The show is really a pile of poop, anway!
Feb 22, 2012
And now my veiwinf of the program is DONE, put her back in the street.
Feb 22, 2012
I never watch the show. They just sit around and interrupt each other. Boring.
Feb 22, 2012
Fine point, Jim, who cares enough to reply to a story of no interest to anybody? Oh wait, that would be you.
Feb 22, 2012
Chris Greenhough lol! I love how people surf the internet desperate for something to do, find and read a story they claim to have no interest in then make rude comments about how they don't care.
Feb 22, 2012
Absolutely, Sherron. I can't think of a more pointless activity.
Feb 22, 2012
Don't know HOW she's 'got the Nerve' to show bk up~~.
Feb 22, 2012
I agree .. . and sitting around reponding to reponses is not a pointless activity. I just clicked on the article just to comment on it, because I can't stand the woman. That's probably what Jim Veteto did. I wonder why he didn't stick around to repond?Oh wait . . . he probably really doesn't care.

Chris Greenhough… the president of the Star Jones Fanboy club, and rabid fan of The View.

Feb 22, 2012
Billy Pilgrim it's all pointless really so quit trying to be clever. #fail (signing off now ttfn!
Feb 22, 2012
Her and Barbara Walters? It should be She and Barbara had a tiff. Please educate yourself.
Feb 22, 2012
Thank you – I was going to comment on the same mistake!
Feb 22, 2012
I guess that since the article is about a subject nobody cares about, the grammar doesn't matter either. So no editing was involved. Sigh.

Star Jones was terribnle on that show and acted so low class. I always thought "you can take the girl out of the ghetto but you can't take the ghetto out of the girl".
