Talk show host Star Jones left "The View" almost two years ago on rocky terms with boss Barbara Walters, and despite the length of time things are still rocky. Jones is now criticizing Walters for writing about her in Walter's new memoir "Audition."
In the book Walters discusses how Jones would not acknowledge on the air that she had gastric bypass surgery. Jones had the surgery in 2003.
Walters said Jones dropped 160 pounds in three years and at first told Walters she would talk about the procedure, and then changed her mind. Walters wrote in her book that it put the rest of the hosts in a terrible position because they had to lie for Star.
Jones told Us Weekly magazine, "It is a sad day when an icon like Barbara Walters, in the sunset of her life, is reduced to publicly branding herself as an adulterer, humiliating an innocent family with accounts of her illicit affair and speaking negatively against me all for the sake of selling a book. It speaks to her true character."
