Don't Ask Star Jones About The Down Low

star

TV host-turned-relationship-advisor, Star Jones, blows a fuse when questions arise regarding the 'down low' phenomenon and her husband's sexual past. Star Jones writing a book about finding the ideal husband is like Anderson Cooper listing the best ways to score with hot chicks. Something just doesn't sound right. Star Jones added the last name Reynolds in 2004, exactly a year after she met Al Reynolds, a handsome Wall Street banker, eight years her junior. After a brief romance, Reynolds proposed to "The View" co-hostess during halftime at a Lakers game in February 2004. And that's when the publicity machine kicked into gear.

Star and Al posed for countless couples portraits. They even launched a website that's still up and running, StarandAl.com. But as the couple prepared for a lavish Manhattan wedding that rivaled the David Gest-Liza Minnelli nuptials, items about Al's sexuality began appearing in gossip columns -- all because Al once shared a house on Fire Island. Then something weird happened. . .

Dallas Voice: Don't you think "the down low" is an important topic in 2006 -- especially for African-American women who are searching for love?

Star Jones: But not in every book. You can't address every issue. And that was not the issue I was addressing, obviously. Quite frankly, it was a journey I was taking to sort of better myself and to find out what it is I wanted in life. And I used it as a backdrop for other women. The book deals more with you identifying what's going to make you happy and not a whole bunch of social issues. That might be another book, but it's not this one. (continue)

I'm going to have to side with Star this time. The point of the whole interview was to give "Shine" some publicity, not have an open debate about if Al wears ruffles on his panties or not. I'm so glad she didn't go Buffie the Body and call the interviewer a punk ass bitch. Star, you're such a fucking lady.
