Quotes

[on the divorce from her husband Al Reynolds]
Star Jones: Several years ago I made an error in judgment by inviting the media into the most intimate area of my life. A month ago I filed for divorce. The dissolution of a marriage is a difficult time in anyone's life that requires privacy with one's thoughts. I have committed myself to handling this situation with dignity and grace and look forward to emerging from this period as a stronger and wiser woman. (edit)
Star Jones: You can have financial strength, professional strength, emotional strength, but for me without spiritual strength none of the rest of it matters. (edit)
[On her family]
Star Jones: My grandparents [Clyde and Pauline Bennett] live in North Carolina. They had my mother, Shirley and 8 other daughters [aunts: Pearl (deceased), Elizabeth, Maxine, Evelyn, Doris, Nancy, Betty and Evangeline]. My mother and my father, James Byard, live in Maryland as does my sister, Sheila, and her two sons: Terrell and Tyson. I'm married to Al Scales Reynolds who is originally from Virginia. Al's parents, Ada and Randolph (deceased) Reynolds had 5 additional children [Edward, Edwin, Ed, Gwendolyn and Gwedette] who live in New Jersey, Virginia and North Carolina with a combined total of 11 children. The Bennett/Jones/Byard/Reynolds clan is huge! (edit)
[On how she broke into television]
Star Jones: As you can see, my break came as a “fluke”, so I may not be the one to ask. That said, let me suggest this: Get yourself a specialty niche. The law is mine. I have something to offer that made me special and I created a way to make that specialty work on television. I have spoken to Meredith about this as she is the true journalist and she suggests that you work on your writing and try to intern as much as possible. Recognize that you will not make money in the beginning, but all things worth having are worth working for. (edit)
[Why does she think she's a target for the tabloids?]
Star Jones: I'm not sure. I mean now I honestly understand people have their jobs and that's their job. It still doesn't take away from it being hurtful but I think also I have this tendency to be a little loud and I'm up front. I'm definitely up front. (edit)

Perfect
"Trendsetter"
Star is a Star! The critics are just jealous haters. They need to get a more deserving target. Like some of the no talent celebs who are famous just for being famous! Star brings value, spark and flair to the set. She is a "value-added" component.
