Star Jones Responds to Barbara Walters’ Comments

Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Television, Editorials

If you’ve been hiding under a rock somewhere, you might not have known that Barbara Walters is currently promoting her new autobiography, Audition.

On yesterday’s episode of Oprah, the journalist actually talked about other matters that didn’t concern a senator or an affair.  In fact, the show started off on one of my other favorite topics, Star Jones.  And while I thought Barbara did her best to talk about the situation in a tactful manner (it’s not like everyone didn’t know Star had gastric bypass), the former View co-host had an entirely different opinion.

Britney’s ‘Mental Issues’ Being Treated

Sam Lufti, the shady man who has somehow wormed his way into Britney Spears’ life, made a point of calling Barbara Walters this weekend to blab about his client.  The pop star’s ‘manager’ for some reason felt it was necessary to update the newswoman on Spear’s current status.  (Apparently Adnan Ghalib‘s tacky interviews on Entertainment Tonight and The Insider haven’t told us enough.)

So with permission, Walters shared a portion of her conversation with Lufti on today’s episode of The View.  The veteran reporter - who was very careful in choosing her words - started off by saying that she “couldn’t vouch for the information”, but that he “seemed to be very knowledgeable” and “was very nice.”  She then revealed that Britney (according to Lufti) is suffering from “mental issues which are treatable.”  Spears has supposedly been to a psychiatrist and (Barbara assumes) is starting some kind of treatment.  Sam claims the singer has been having mood swings and difficulty sleeping.  And despite rumors to the contrary,  Brit’s mother (Lynne Spears) has apparently been in contact with her daughter and has offered words of support.
