Star to Babs: I'm a Lawyer, You're a Slut

Star Jones and Barbara Walters are staging their own version of "The Hills" -- just 50 years later!

Star Jones unleashed a verbal ass-whooping on Barbara Walters today, telling Us Weekly, "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."

Star is referring to the revelation Walters made that she had an affair with then-married Senator Edward Brooke during the 1970s -- and the fact that Walters claims in her new book Jones forced her to lie on "The View" about Jones' gastric bypass surgery.

For her part, Walters' rep refused to comment back, saying, "I will not dignify this with a comment. Barbara's written words say it all!"

91. 77. If you saw her on Oprah, what she said when asked if she regretted the affair, she said, "I regret that he wasn't re-elected."

All these years later, and she's still unwilling to see what she did to a family.

92. This is the one time that I would have to agree with STAR - ONLY A SLUT LIKE BARBARA braggs about an adulterous affair!!!!

Star may hve married an obviously gay dude (at least to the REST of the world) BUT AT LEAST SHE MARRIED him - and did not sneak around like A SLUTTY HO!

Star might have been fat / and perhaps a Bi*tch - but again NOT A homewrecking HO!

93. I started reading Barbara's book this morning while waiting at a doctors office. I must say, that it is a REALLY good book! For those of you saying negative things about her.................don't, not until you have read the book and know exactly WHY she wrote it!!!!! As far as the senator is concerned, she had a meeting with him and ask his premission to TALK about their affair. Barbara is one of the CLASSIEST women in the business unlike some of you who are trashing her! So, until you have read the book and know what the hell you are talking about..................STFU!

To the person that brought OPRAH into this equation, I would have to say you are a VERY weak woman if, you don't understand her. Obviously, you don't!

95. If it wasn't for Barbara, Star would be a nobody. Which she still is.

96. #83: A classy woman doesn't sleep with someone's husband. You must just think she's classy because she put on her pearls to boink him. But in reality, all she is is a well-known journalist who screwed someone's husband.

97. Walters is pathetic, bathetic, simple minded -- a slut! WHY? Because she hasn't the respect for herself or the people around her to keep her mouth shut. Is she pandering to sell books? Perhaps coaching from Heidi Fleiss would help.

BITCH

102. I had gastric bypass and I can't believe it's such an issue with her. I am proud to say I did it, and would do it all over again.
I think Star should be proud that she looks better now than she ever did before.
