Star Jones to sue tabloid over gay hubby claim
http://www.canada.com/topics/entertainment/story.html?id=22e2d117-4f3c-4ce2-be37-7e56e9eeed41&k=37149

Star Jones, former co-host of The View, plans to sue a tabloid for alleging that her husband is gay.

Bob Chapman, lawyer for Jones and husband Al Reynolds, sent a letter to the National Enquirer warning that an article in the Oct. 2 issue of the publication is “false and defamatory.”

The headline of the Enquirer’s story reads: “Star Jones’ Husband Walks Out!”

“While Mr. and Mrs. Reynolds believe that everyone should be free to make their own choice concerning sexual preference and that there is nothing wrong with being gay, you have nonetheless chosen to falsely state that Mr. Reynolds is gay,” reads the letter.

:rofl:

poor POOR Star

5. Shades of Oscar Wilde!
I could really give a flying fig if Mr. Reynolds is gay or not. That being said, if he is truly gay, and doesn't want anyone to know it, and plans to sue for defamation, he'd best hope that none of his old partners are the kiss and tell kind.

The cross-examination question that ruined Oscar Wilde: "Did you ever kiss him?"
