Barbara Walters has a book out and in it she covers the lie she had to tell every day on the set of "The View." Everyone knows Star Jones took a wet vac to her fat, but Star claimed for the longest time that she lost the weight from "portion control and pilates."

Babs told Oprah yesterday that Star was so obese that she could barely walk on to the set. I once heard a funny rumor that Star's fat ass couldn't make it to the set without resting, so they placed a chair between her dressing room and the set. HA! I would have moved the chair one day and put a giant pizza in its place.

Babs said, “She decided to have a gastric bypass operation, but then she decided not to tell anybody. Then we had to lie on the set everyday because she said it was portion control and Pilates. Well, we knew it wasn’t portion control and Pilates.”

Babs also talked about Rosie O'Donnell's "emotional issues." She said that Rosie felt she was abandoned by her, because she didn't back her up in Rosie's girl fight with Donald Trump. Babs also said Rosie was used to being in control, "She had always driven the bus and she could not just ride the bus." The short bus!

Unfortunately, Babs didn't give us any juicy gossip on Hasselcrack! I just know that fake bitch is a kinky swinger who's into sploshing.

Animals sacrificed their lives to adorn these queens' necks and wrists. I'm sure it was worth it. That fur trim amplifies the fugliness of those dresses like nothing else could. I don't think those converted stage curtains could have made it without the fur. If Babwa could be an animal, what would she be? "I would be a mink, so I could warm Star's wrists."

Babs, Star, Elisabeth Snagglesnatch, Joy Behar, Whoopi, Rosie, Dipshit Debbie, and Shari (that her name?).
Nope. Nothing decent on or off the View.

i'm sure there are lots of lies that the cast of the View had to tell about dear Babs - like she's an old whore who would sell out anyone if she could work some angle. BW has gotten away for years for being a "knee-pad/vaseline" journalist , while trading on being some sort of real journalist.

I wonder if her biggest lie is that her "adopted" daughter is really her biological daughter? Star STFU? Babs STFU and retire you old ho.

The Chanel button comment is 100% true. I truly think the reason she had 100s of shoes is because of the fact that she couldn't really fit/buy anything that was designer label so she would put her feet that DIDN"T FIT AT ALL into shoes that had tags/clear labels on them just to strut them around.
She is also notoriously cheap.
One of my favorite stories is from one of the old View assistants. She had to travel w/Star to New Orleans and the entire crew went out late for drinks. I guess they returned to the hotel late and all ordered food in Star's room some of which included oysters on the half shell and other shellfish type stuff. All the food wasn't consumed and the next morning when the assistant went to pick Star up to go to a taping or somesuch, Star was in her room eating the old seafood that had just been laying around in the room overnight. Assistant said the sight of her snarfing down old oysters and shellfish at like 10 am in the morning would give her nightmares for months to come.
Star also was one of those who if you actually looked her in the eyes in the morning she would tell you off, asks what you're looking at, and call producers over to get you in trouble. The woman is truly a ego maniac and insane.
Also Babs has black coffee and a peeled hard boiled egg for breakfast every morning. If the egg isn't peel it ain't worth eating.

Babwa is such a tool in her old age.... I don't think she should be publicly criticizing ANYONE. And that show of hers is unbearable.

Madam Pince's picture

I'm over Baba. She needs to STFU, not spill all her beans. The affair revelation really offends me -- Edward Brooke is probably not happy about it, since he's not answering his phone.

I can relate to Star's pre-GBS problems, but she should have been honest. Her lawyer roots always surface.

Tell us more.... PLEASE. I love these little nuggets that reveal a person's true nature.

True, but they reveal just as much about Barbara Walters' nature for blabbing, as Rosie or Star.

Whether it's true or not, Walters' book confirms that she's more of an entertainer than a journalist.

She lost the few class points she may have had before. Maybe she needs to retire, already. Isn't she pushing 90?

It's not our business if Star or whomever has gastric bypass surgery. But don't insult us by telling us you are losing weight by portion control and pilates when you are losing mass amounts of weight in a short amount of time. We know better.

I know of people who have had the surgery to save their life and they admitted they had the surgery. No big deal.

I wonder....if I would have breast implants, could I just tell people I drank more dairy and they grew?

For me, the 4th ring of hell would involve being in the front row of the view studio audience for every single episode, while watching re-runs in between.

5th ring of hell is being ravaged by rosie, baba, and star jones, while listening to them talk about themselves...

I have a new respect for BaWa Walters, her book was cleansing for her but I now see her as a great woman and great slut. Thats a great combination that can't be beat.

TANGELINE's picture

Tell me:

Why is it our business that Star had gastric bypass?

Asking Barbara and others not to say anything is an agreement betweem them. No one lied, they just didn't tell us Star's PERSONAL business.

What is it about the American mentality that doesn't understand the friggin concept of PRIVACY?? Do you want to know if STAR still gets her period? Next y'all will be talking to her gynocologist.

And Barbara disclosing this in her book is beyond low.

I have a friend that is battling obesity and I just find it appalling that poeple find it funny that Star couldn't make it to the set without resting. The woman could have died if she didn't take drastic measures. It was and still is no one's business.

Barbara is a BITCH!!

Yes I know. It is weird that fences are optional in some places. I don't get how different parts of our country have lifestyle differences. It is not a big deal at all, just something we notice.

I don't either. But they were all in a small town and their houses were on a couple acres. I asked why they did not put a fence between them and the next house. And they said thats what you west coast people do. Go figure.

Zomay no I live in a small town in PA. Our branch of Barnes & Noble will hold some book signings by local authors. Though this past Saturday Augusten Burroughs was at book store in Philadelphia which is about a 4 hour drive away I really wanted to go but couldn't.

Mrs.Kravitz's picture

I have never been to a "book signing," but I have been to TONS of readings. The author will either read from the book or talk about it, and afterwards they sign books. You can buy the book there for the author to sign or you can bring a copy of the book you previously bought. Sometimes authors (like Michael Chabon) will sign other books they have written. Or you can just go and hear what they have to say, then leave.

My other favorite story about Star Jones was that when she was starting out as a lawyer (*snicker*) she would put Chanel buttons on a Dress Barn suit. Like people would really be fooled by that. HA HA HA HA HA HA!

Usually you only need to buy a book if you want it signed. Authors usually speak before the signing and you don't have to buy a book for that. At least to the ones I've been to.

What was interesting about the Oprah show was Babs kept saying that it was only until she made everyone lie about the bypass that people started to dislike her. I used to intern on the View in late 1999. I can say for a fact that many many people already hated her on that set. She would throw fits if there wasn't bacon by her dressing room door when she came in the morning. She was truly a horrible person. At one point, I am not joking, she had to have an intern help LOTION HER LEGS because you know, she couldn't reach them and why not have some college kid help a sista out. The woman was the embodiment of pure evil and I cannot tell you the glee I get out of the fact that she is so publically hated now. But I have to say, Babs was never honest about a lot of stuff either. She constantly denied at the time that she had had plastic surgery which was laughable because even in 1999 it was clear she had had more than one and her eyes were being pulled to her ears.

Zomay you can still go and listen to her speak but she won't sign anything for you but the damn book. You can go stand in line maybe get to speak to her for a hot second but that's about it.

Sometimes the authors read a bit do Q&A's then sign the books and chat with fans at the signings. Call the bookstore and ask what kind of set up they have for it. It might be worth it, who knows?

Don't waste your time. First you have to buy a copy of her book. And when you finally get her old ass and start asking her the hard questions like "So how many times have you had your wrinkly old face pulled back?" Security would be all over your ass like Britney on a Cheeto.
