Star Jones Falls From Grace Again

set out to reinvent herself when The Star Jones Show hit the airwaves in September 2007. After a 5 month run, the network has pulled the plug on the lawyer. The former Brooklyn prosecutor was attempting to provide a link between law and entertainment on her live 3p.m. show.

According to a TruTV network spokesman, the lawyer will continue to lend her expertise as a legal expert on the weekday IN SESSION trial coverage.

Star Jones nearly 9 year run on The View started well but deteriorated in later years. She lost a tremendous amount of weight and made waves by being less than candid about the surgical procedure that facilitated her new svelte body. She angered many with her assertion that she had turned to diet and exercise - refusing to share the medical intervention piece. She also lost viewer support with her 'all about me' phase leading up to her marriage. She monopolized the panel conversation with every detail of her upcoming nuptials.

Jones was fired from her co-hosting gig on morning talk show The View in early 2006. She and Barbara Walters reached the point of no return when Jones blindsided Walters on the air, revealing that her contract was not being renewed for the new season. She was cut loose the same day and never again appeared on the show.
