1. Star Jones. Twinkle, twinkle, little Star, how I wonder what the hell you are thinking sometimes. I read the September, 2007 Glamour magazine essay in which Jones, former host of The View, revealed she had gastric bypass surgery. (Surprise. Surprise.) The admission came a bit too late to save her career or to temper her image as an overbearing moocher. She may not have landed on her feet but did manage to get another gig – her own self-titled show on CourtTV. A couple of months ago, Jones was in the news again, accused of having stiffed a Detroit group when she was a no-show for a scheduled event at which she was to speak. Ironically, the group, Full and Fabulous, is a nonprofit organization that “assists plus-sized women and girls to cope with peer pressure.” Ouch! A fall from grace is always painful.
