Or, he pretends to do so. Al Reynolds, who rode Star Jones‘ coattails into a big ass pile of her millions, has created his own YouTube channel to divulge all the deets about his life and his relationship with the infamous Star Jones. The videos are set up like an interview, with some lady playing the part of annoyingly cheesy tabloid reporter. It’s all very bizarre and contrived, which of course means it’s fun as f*ck to watch. Obviously the goal of his new channel is to garner good publicity – or perhaps, any publicity at all – even though no one really cares about this dude now that he’s not banging the former View co-host. But we did learn some interesting things: Al didn’t know all the wedding endorsements were ridiculous and thought it was just how celebs rolled, he and Star decided together that he would quit his job in banking so she could be his Sugar Mama, and while there is a pre-nup, but he can’t talk about it. Oh, and the once-happy couple doesn’t speak, obviously.
We were totally digging Al until he called their break-up “tender.” Not so into him anymore! Watch it here.
Damn. Al Reynolds – Star Jones‘ soon-to-be ex – is looking surprisingly hot in this shirtless pic. Who knew? Now we get why she was down with being a sugar-mama for four years. There was lots of buzz that this snapshot was part of an ad campaign for Under Armour, but the company got their panties in a twist over the allegations and released this statement:
“I wanted to clarify what has been reported. Al Reynolds is not a spokesperson for Under Armour, nor is there any business relationship of any kind between the Under Armour brand and Al Reynolds.”
Okay we get it! He’s just a weird single dude who likes to take sexy crotch-grabbing pics for NO PROFIT. Star, get those divorce papers handy. [Crunk+Disorderly]
“If I punched every b*tch who called me fat, it would be dead b*tches all up and down the highway.”
- Our new hero, Star Jones, at the reunion of The Bad Girls Club after one girl told another she was “a cheeseburger away from being obese.” Star was hosting the show and offered up the above tidbit of large lady wisdom in response to the diss.
It’s not like the whole world didn’t see this one coming even way before their opulent wedding, but it’s still fun to wallow in their failed marriage now that it might actually be falling apart! Former View co-host Star Jones and her hubby of three years, Al Reynolds, are on the verge of calling it quits, after Al apparently wasn’t pulling his weight in their relationship. Star is ready to drop the D bomb, a source says, because, “…Star felt Al had spent their marriage riding her success while she did all the heavy lifting. She resented it. Deep down, Star is a very old-fashioned woman who believes a man should support her emotionally, physically and financially. She now believes Al failed her.”
Al has already allegedly moved out of the couple’s NYC apartment and is chillin’ in Miami, where he has supposedly already been spending plenty of time. Star, on the other hand, has had a lot of free time on her hands since her last televised venture on truTV was canceled earlier this winter. Seems like the perfect time for the diva to find herself a new man! Afterall, a girl can never have too many ridiculous weddings under her belt. [MSNBC]

- Star Jones and Sherri Shepherd sign up for a revival of The Vagina Monologues. Let’s hope they spare us the view. [Crunk + Disorderly]
- Beyoncé and Jay-Z sit side-to-side using laptops. They use computers to hide their disinterest for each other, too. Celebrities are just like us! [Cake & Ice Cream]
- Michael Jackson is considering playing London this year. Whether that “playing” will involve music or with little boys is not yet clear. [Bossip]
- And finally, I offer no puns, wordplay or insight really, and yet I think the following statement is absolutely vital: Dr. Phil is a donkey’s ass. An ass’ ass, even. [Dlisted]
