Star Jones Finally Admits She Had Gastric Bypass Surgery
Although she has credited “medical intervention” for her weight loss in the past, Star Jones Reynolds has said she had gastric bypass surgery — until now!
In a personal essay penned by Star for the September issue of Glamour, she writes, “I was also terrified someone would have a tragic result after emulating me without making an informed decision with her doctor. But the complete truth is, I was scared of what people might think of me.”
The former View co-host, who has lost about 160 lbs. over three years, says at first she didn’t know if the surgery would work. “I had spent my entire adult life telling everyone that I was fine with the way I looked. I never thought I’d have to explain it.”
Jones Reynold is gearing up to host a new show on Court TV.

I think she looks too skinny. Makes her face look weird. She would look prettier with her face a little fuller.

Duh Star you idiot. She waited to admit to it so that when attention towards her died down, she could bring it back up by mentioning her weight loss again. No one cares. We already knew, and… what’s your purpose again anyway???
