Star Jones became a household name during her stint as a co-host of the popular daytime talk show, The View. She is best known for her candid and insightful opinions on The View.

In the fall of 2003, Star Jones decided to have gastric bypass surgery. But the gastric bypass surgery alone wasn’t enough to help Jones.
