Star Jones says "The View" has become a "very different show"

She wisely is not commenting on Rosie O'Donnell's announcement that she would not be returning to "The View" next season, but Star Jones Reynolds had a few things to say to about the show she spent nine years co-hosting before beng fired last spring.
171458__starjones_l.jpgIn an interview the day before O'Donnell's announcement, Star told AP Radio she hadn't watched "The View" since leaving the show.
"I haven't seen the show. Not once," she says. "It's a different part of my life and a different chapter. That's not the show that I did. The show that I was a participant on was a very different show."
Star will return to television when she hosts her own daily talk show on Court TV later this year. It's a return to her roots for Reynolds, a lawyer who began her TV career as a legal commentator on Court TV in 1991. She said being fired from "The View" made her focus "on the things that were important."
"I said, `Step back Star. Re-evaluate yourself. Re-evaluate your career. What do you really want to be your legacy and your contribution,'" she said. "I had to put it in perspective. And I just joined other Americans who have had a humbling firing experience," she said. "So you pick yourself up and you move on."
Yup. And you stop acting like a diva and a bridezilla so viewers don't get turned off and stop watching the show! I like Star well enough as a TV personality but she did get out of hand. And you gotta figure she might secretly delight in Rosie leaving the show right? She's only human!
