Oh, Star
where do we begin? In 1991, before Jones became our favorite diva-who-pretends-shes-not-a-diva, she was Starlet Marie Jones, a New York senior assistant district attorney. (Bryan Bedder / Getty Images)
History repeats
When asked to leave The View in 2006, the spurned Star went straight to People magazine to talk about what had really gone down: “What you don’t know is that my contract was not renewed for the 10th season.... I feel like I was fired.
But rumor had it that Star was let go because she used the show to score free goods for her wedding. (Carlo Allegri / Associated Press)
More free stuff
For somebody with a lot of money, Star sure doesnt like to spend it. In 2003, Star was sued by a landscaping company that alleged that she agreed to mention it in an Architectural Digest article about her home if the firm fixed up her rooftop garden. The suit was later dismissed in her favor. (Andrew H. Walker / Getty Images)
Books by Star
Star has written two books: a collection of autobiographical essays titled You Have to Stand for Something, or You’ll Fall for Anything and a self-help book titled Shine: A Physical, Emotional, and Spiritual Journey to Finding Love. (Paul Hawthorne / Getty Images)
