Members Rhiannon Posted July 16, 2007 Members Share Posted July 16, 2007 Star Jones to Open up About Weight Loss Jul 16, 12:46 PM EST The Associated Press BEVERLY HILLS, Calif. -- Ever since her dramatic weight loss, Star Jones Reynolds has refused to confirm or deny that she had gastric bypass surgery. Now Reynolds says she's written a story for Glamour magazine that will address speculation about her slimmed-down physique. "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," Reynolds, 45, said recently while promoting her new Court TV (soon to be truTV) talk show. "And I thought that that would be the most effective way to answer everybody's questions." Her article, "Getting Over Myself," will be featured in the September issue, on newsstands Aug. 7, a representative for Glamour said Monday. Reynolds, who has said she lost more than 100 pounds through diet and exercise, said she has no qualms about viewing photos of when she was very heavy. "I actually like seeing the old pictures because what it says to me is, `You never allow yourself to get there again,'" she told reporters, according to AP Radio News. "It was dangerous to me. Very dangerous. I was killing myself." Reynolds, who married banker Al Reynolds in 2004, decided to use her maiden name as the title of her afternoon talk show, which premieres Aug. 20. "Star Jones Reynolds makes dinner for her husband every night. She's the wife. I'm the working woman," she said. Court TV has said Reynolds' show will be about criminal justice issues that intersect with the pop culture world. It's a return to her roots for Reynolds, a lawyer who began her TV career as a legal commentator on Court TV in 1991. She was an original co-host on ABC's "The View," starting in 1997, where she became acquainted with the glitz and glamour of show biz. She left the daytime talk show last year. Reynolds says she would like to talk with Rosie O'Donnell, another former "View" co-host, who has criticized her for avoiding questions about gastric bypass surgery. "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."

Members DevotedToAMC Posted July 16, 2007 Members Share Posted July 16, 2007 Well to me she doesn't have to open up about how she lost the weight since it really is nobody's business. However, I definitely think she had gastric bypass surgery and if she did, more power to her. What she needs to work on is toning down her ego and diva status Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members David_Vickers Posted July 18, 2007 Members Share Posted July 18, 2007 I agree. I think Star Jones Reynolds had gastric bypass and should admit it. And I agree she needs to lose the weight of her divaness! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Dr. Jay S.W. Posted July 20, 2007 Members Share Posted July 20, 2007 Who gives a damn? Starr was HUGE and really unhealthy. This thread promted me to look at some old photos of her, and I didn't recall her being that big. She was Big in 2004, and I dont think she lost that weight naturally in 3 years, but who cares what I think? Like Devoted said, it's no ones business. Although bad, she looks much healthier now and I think that's whats important. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
