Star and Al are divorcing!!!1!

[AngryAmish]

I'm gonna have a good cry. Nobody saw that one coming.

[sasquatch]

1. Who!?

:shrug:

[mondo joe]

2. A big gay HA HA to them.

:D

[LostinVA]

3. Yup, this is a TOTAL surprise

NOT.

[DS1]

4. Al Roker?

:shrug:

[mondo joe]

5. Years ago I saw her telling Gillian Anderson that NO WAY WOULD SHE *EVER* marry a gay

man. She sealed her own fate that day.

[Anarcho-Socialist]

6. Who are Star and Al?

[youthere]

7. I, for one, am shocked.

shocked I tell you. This is me being shocked-----> :wow:

[Fox Mulder]

8. I couldn't care less.

[Zuiderelle]

9. I've so far discerned that you are referring to Star Jones and some gay man named Al who she married

I didn't even know she married. Last thing I remember is her losing a lot of weight, and not being on The View anymore.

[Anarcho-Socialist]

10. Thanks for writing

I had no idea what people were referring to.

[Shakespeare]

15. She whored her wedding out for corporate sponsorship.

I'm sure there's an account archived somewhere on the net--it's absolutely revolting. And Al was rumored to be gay LONG before they married.

[LynneSin]

17. The wedding was one of her downfalls at the View

Star made a deal with companies that wanted to provide services for her wedding. The companies would provide something free like food, flowers, wedding dress, jewelry, honeymoon and Star would promote the hell out of them on the View. Ultimately the viewers of the View got fed up listening to Star Jones talk about her wedding.

But in light of what they have now - a woman who believes the earth is 6000 years old and could be flat AND the wife of a professional NFL benchwarmer whose nose is so far stuck up Bush's ass; hell bring back Star Jones

[Zuiderelle]

22. That's awful.

I wondered why she left, but I guess I didn't care enough to find out.

And yeah, the Survivor conservative freak, a far sight worse than Star ever could have been.

[MonkeyFunk]

11. I haven't been this shocked

since Liza and David split up.

[FredScuttle]

12. No fear, there are plenty of eligible bachelors on the prowl

[Crabby Appleton]

14. Phil is single to, I believe

[FredScuttle]

19. So is this soft-spoken, not-at-all-dangerous former all-american hero

[Westegg]

13. The deuce, you say!

[LynneSin]

16. So who is going to sponser her divorce - does she have a show to promote them

:shrug:

[joeybee12]

18. Poor Star, the African-American Liza Minelli....

...neither has gaydar apparently.

[FredScuttle]

20. She can always commiserate with Terry McMillan

Funny thing....she rakes in millions writing books about how all black men are dogs and pigs and then when her boytoy groom from Jamaica turns out to prefer the menfolk, she's astounded at the level of vitrol and spite headed right back at her. :eyes:

[joeybee12]

25. Never read her books...picked up one and put it down after a few pages...

...I'm obviously not her target audience.

[mondo joe]

21. Gillian Anderson told her years ago that if you marry a gay man it might be your karma

to do so - that you have something to learn or work out.

[joeybee12]

26. X-Files Gillian? n/t

[mondo joe]

27. Yup. She was on The View, talking about karma of all things, and gave that

as an example. Star Jones started declaring such a thing would never happen to her.

It was a weord little clash of Anderson's thoughtfulness and Jones's absolutism.

[joeybee12]

28. OMG! That means the X-Files was real!!!

Well, you reap what you sow!

[kwassa]

23. and so endeth Star King's dwindling 15 minutes of fame.

[GreenPartyVoter]

24. Who and who?

[Love Bug]

29. Star got what she wanted

She wanted the big, splashy wedding with all the frills. She also wanted to prove that she could get married and wasn't a 'loser' in love. It's too bad she didn't focus her energy into finding an appropriate mate rather than on the trimmings -- she might have found the right man and wouldn't be facing divorce now. She bought into the fairy tale and look what she got.

[Giant Robot]

30. Just so I can share with Mrs Giant Robot

Where did you read this? I can't find anything searching for her divorce.

And I have no interest in this at all....just wanted to share this thats all....yeah thats it

[Rob H.]

31. So she's back on the market, then?

All-riiight!



Just kidding.:P
