Star Jones Hates Everyone Who’s Ever Been On The View Ever Before Whoopi Goldberg there was Rosie O'Donnell, and before Rosie O'Donnell there was Star Jones - we don't know who she is, but she sure is angry. Star Jones used to be a panellist on The View but, from what we've gathered, she left the show under a cloud a few years ago because nobody really liked how morbidly chub-faced she was. But some time has passed since Star Jones left The View, enough time for everything to blow over and heal the cracks in her broken heart. That's why, over two entire years since she left The View, Star Jones has decided to come forward and describe everyone on the show as 'hateful' and make all kinds of froth-mouthed claims about how she was set up. It's exciting stuff, so just imagine how much more exciting it'd be if we knew or cared who Star Jones actually was.
