Debbie Matenopoulos Trashes Star Jones
Do you remember Debbie Matenopoulos? Well, she was one of the original hosts on The View. Yep, right there with Star Jones. Well, in an interview with Pop Eater, Debbie has some unkind words for Star. "I want on vacation with Star and when we returned she mentioned everything on the show. I was so young and had no idea how TV worked, but even I knew it wasn't right, getting all this free stuff and in return plugging it on air."
I think Debbie is just sad she did not think of it first. I don't see how Star getting free stuff for a plug is any different than having products thrown in our faces everytime we are watching a television show or movie. Companies are paying for those product placements. I guess the producers of The View or ABC could have had an issue with it since that could have been money paid for commercials, but it could have also been in Star's contract that she was allowed to do that.
I do find it funny that the photo Pop Eater used for its article shows Debbie kissing a bottle of booze, which she probably got for free in exchange for the photo.
