Star Jones Gives Her View of Former Cohosts

The lawyer-turned-talk-show-host speaks out about the ladies from the morning chatfest

It's probably safe to say that Star Jones won't be dropping by for a friendly chat on The View anytime soon.

Jones, who departed from the talk show in 2006, doesn't hold anything back when it comes to dissing discussing her former cohosts in the November issue of Essence magazine.

"Those girls were hateful," Jones says, referring to Joy Behar, Elisabeth Hasselbeck and Barbara Walters. 

Adding fuel to the fire, she insists, "Barbara set me up."

Ouch.

Then again, bashing Babs has sorta become a regular pastime for Jones.
