Star Jones wannabe?
Who the heck?? That is what comes to my mind when I think to myself, who would want to be Star Jones-Reynolds? Well apparently someone did when our very own Kyle Bunch stumbled upon what seems to be Star Jones-Reynolds blog.
I went to the blog myself and read over what seemed to be Star putting on the charade she usually seems to be doing all of the time. It actually kind of made Kyle a believer because it wouldn’t be so odd for Star to come up with banter that noone cared about.
With the user name at Blogspot being “BigOleLovin” one can only come to the conclusion that I don’t think the Real Star Jones Reynolds would have the time to write the lame blog posted.
While scowering the obviously fake Star Blog in the side panel “Star” puts links to “Rude People” and wouldn’t you know I found a link to an article on Gawker about Star Jones, along with a few others. So at this point I am bothered. So what do you do in a situation that is bothering you and you just want answers? Go to the source of course!
I clicked on her profile info which sent me to a page where I could contact her at her website. As Star Jones may not be entertaining to any of you the fact that someone went out of their way to make a blog and pretend to be her just makes me warm and fuzzy on the inside with laughter. I emailed her personal assistant Elizabeth Meyer expecting maybe to get an email from her since she really can’t be all that important. I mean being the personal assistant of Star Jones, how glamorous (right!) Well I didn’t get far, every email on her site is automated and clearly explains Star is VERY busy, here it is:
Thank you so much for your letter.
Mrs. Reynolds asked me to tell you how overjoyed she is with the love and support that she has received from all of you! Our mail…like her blessings is overflowing, so please understand that although we would like to answer each letter personally, the volume of mail we receive prohibits us from doing so.
If this is a business related request, our office will respond to you as soon as possible. If this is a personal request, we ask you to understand.
Best regards,
Office of Star Jones ReynoldsHave you heard about Star’s new book Shine, a Physical, Emotional & Spiritual Journey to Finding Love? For more information on Star Jones Reynolds or Shine, go to www.starjones.com.
After reading that all I could hear in my head is Star’s fake overjoyed voice.
So you be the judge. Take a look at Star Jones-Reynolds blog and tell me if the low rate celebrity did this or if its merely an obsessed fan whom obviously loves “Big Ole Lovin.”

Seriously….
“Funny story: For the longest time I thought “blog” referred to a very large roll of bologna. I know! Silly me.”
I guess internet anonymity is a double-edged sword.

To quote you:

This may be the worst written sentence in the history of blogging. A completely boring post about an even boring, obviously fake celeb site.
I hope the bar gets raised a litle higher for this site because I really thought it was going somewhere.

I agree, faked blog. Why? Well, the design is so basic (basic template I guess) that no real star would even think of keeping it that simple. Besides I don’t second Cheezit’s comment. This blog is about blogs, so the post is perfectly fine.

Gotta love critiquing anyone’s grammar with a sentence like this:

I thought this was a given, but I’ll restate the obvious for Cheezit and any other half-wit detractors: if you are going to attack someone’s writing, make sure you’ve got skills yourself.

Not to mention he didn’t provide a link to where he resides at on the net. He knew we would have to take a look at it, and then write about it…

There are plenty of “fake blogs” like these (Mainly on LJ and their knock-offs) - they are usually part of celebrity RPGs, whereby fans roleplay as these celebs, write blogs pretending to be them, interact with the other people in their RPG. Sometimes it’s serious, sometimes it’s silly, sometimes it’s smutty. Any and every celeb, well-known or not, gets a chance.
I won’t be too surprised if this was such an RPG blog too.

I disagree, just the fact that you linked me in a blog with such a big audienece will bring me traffic, not all the people would agree with your opinion after all

Star Jones…ick - I like how she promoted her crap at the end of her standard issue email. Classy.

Star Jones cracks me up. She is well educated, and up until she finally got a boyfriend, all she ever did was make disparaging remarks about men. Now all of a sudden, she went from fat and flabby to sleek and an expert on beauty and romance? I feel sorry for that husband of hers, he was just part of the stage show that is Star Jones…could have been anyone willing to do what she says, when she says it and be willing to be Mr Star Jones. What an ego trip this woman is on…sickening really. She puts the “P” in phony.

Who gives a fuck about Star? She was a bore (or is it boarish?), and so is “The View,” and so is the self-righteous “Barbra WAWA,” and so is ABC. The whole affair is banal and unimportant: infotainment at its worst!

This not so shiny STAR makes me wanna puke. I for one could not be happier that this drag queen is gone from the View (not that it was a top 10 favorite of mine anyways…) Getting rid of her is like cleaning the show of its cockroach infestation. It may actually grab my attention now. NOW, if we could just make her fall off of the face of the Earth, mankind would indeed be in a better way…

OK…..I loved Star on the show…when she was
a big woman and proud and confident of being so..
then as she admits…this became a health issue…she did get alittle goofie while she was doing her nups…and all the foo foo romantic stuff…but I thought it was cute and nice and I was happy for her! Then the BOOK….I bought it and glanced….reading it today….actually it is quite good………alot of advice, well thought out and I hope she does well with it…as Rosie, the BIG PIG and BIG MOUTH, VERY UNKIND is moving in…..I think people will really miss Star…
