Battle Star Rages On

Posted on May 8, 2008

It's today's all new "view" on Star vs. Barbara's all-out war! Walters, Queen of Interviews, was absent from "The View" this morning, after her headline-making revelations about Star Jones. Now, "Extra" is going one-on-one in an exclusive with Debbie Matenopoulos, host of "The Daily 10" on E!, and an original member of the "View" crew -- as she reveals that she had her own Star war after being famously fired from the talk show in 1999.

Today she's sending Star a message right here on "Extra," saying, "Suddenly, I was no longer part of the group... you were supposed to be my friend." Matenopoulos pointedly added, "Don't cheapen what we all created."

Was Jones ratings poison for the Emmy-winning talk show? "Star had been the most popular person," Walters says in an "Extra" exclusive, "and that changed."

Something that won't change is the outside opinions of the ongoing battle. "To watch this play out in the public... is a soap opera," says Debbie, "I mean, that's 'The View.'"

I was very disappointed when Debbie was fired. I felt she added some youth to the show and I was able to keep up on the younger generations views which I thought created great conversation for my daughters and myself. I don’t know what exactly the show was looking for but I don’t think it ever really found it !!!

Debbie, I hope you read these - please, pease lose the over-the-top black eyeliner. It’s not appealing to look at on TV; the eyes look like black holes, or bug eyes. It’s time for an update.

Barbie Walters is a sickening old lady, has been. Unreal, who cares if she did what to whom, when? For the money honey. Green stuff, no morals left. Never did like her

I’m still shocked by Brabara’s revalation about her having an affair with Abraham Lincoln!Now there’s report’s she may have also had an affair with that now infamous mink coat that Lindsay Lohan allegedley stole from a nightclub.Only judge Judy can straighten this mess out.

Barbara W. your days are over. Just get the hell out. No one is interested about you. You are not a diva. Don’t you ever will be. You are nothing but a faked up Barbi doll that needs a lot of cleaning up to do.

Obviously your statement about your adulterous lover being very black just goes to show what kind of a public person you are.
