About two years ago, Star Jones lost over 160 pounds right before our eyes, yet never came clean about how she did it. Actually I take that back, she said she did with a disciplined diet and exercise. Oh but hey, guess what. She meant to say, diet, exercise and gastric bypass surgery. People says:
Now, in the September issue of Glamour, she's admitting that, yes, she had gastric bypass surgery – despite previously only admitting to having undegone a "medical intervention." Why the delay in speaking up? "First, I didn't know if the surgery would work," she writes in the first-person essay. "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. "But the complete truth is, I was scared of what people might think of me."
Well it was a huge risk but totally worth it. You don't get to be as breathtakingly beautiful as Star Jones with taking a few risks. Like Icarus when he flew too close to the sun, Star Jones quest for physical perfection may be her undoing, but admirers of the female form like myself are all the richer for it.
And I don't have any Star Jones pictures, so please enjoy the video of a football smashing into her stupid fat face.
