Star Jones continues to freeload


Star Jones famously got a large portion of her sham wedding ceremony to Al Reynolds comped. Now she doesn’t want to pay for stripping-focused exercise lessons, since she’s not going to need them anyway:

The large-and-in-charge co-host of “The View” – looking to tighten up after getting a breast lift (with implants) and losing 150 pounds (with gastric bypass surgery) – asked her manager to set up free private lessons at S Factor gym, where owner Sheila Kelley teaches her charges to use a stripper pole. Kelley offered only the first lesson for free, and Jones decided to stick with Equinox. Despite e-mails that show otherwise, a spokesman for Star said it was Kelley who approached her.

Obviously Jones is up to her old tricks and thinks that her dim star power is enough to get her anything she wants. She should just be canned from The View already and become a spokesperson because she doesn’t have many career options left.

By all accounts, Jones’ return to the View after the health scare she suffered from breast lift surgery was unremarkable. Jones brought some falsies in for her co-hosts, saying she no longer needed them, and admitted that she did have a scare on the operating table. She continued to downplay the threat to her health though and insisted that she was “eating bacon and eggs” the next morning. Jones seemed to get along fine with Joy Behar after their snotty exchange on the phone over the air. The two must have been making a special effort.

Jones was honored by Dress for Success at the Marriot Marquis in NY last night. Dress for Success is a non-profit organization that provides secondhand business attire and interview tips to disadvantaged women. Jones must be considered a wonderful example for women afraid to ask for charity.

Here’s Jones in what’s probably a borrowed dress at the Dress for Success event last night.
