'Celebrity Apprenctice': La Toya Jackson says Star Jones is mean, 'She can't help it'
It seems as if Lisa Rinna and NeNe Leakes aren't the only members of the women's team who walked away with a bad impression of Star Jones on "The Celebrity Apprentice." La Toya Jackson appeared on Wednesday's (March 30) episode of "The Ellen DeGeneres Show" and confirmed Star is an equal-opportunity offender.
"I think everybody has a hard time with Star," La Toya tells Ellen.
Although La Toya didn't want to say anything unkind, Ellen sort of badgered her until she answered the question, "Is she tough or is she mean?"
"OK, she's mean," the Jackson answers. "And I mean mean."
Once Ellen got La Toya started, it wasn't hard to keep the ball rolling. "I always say if I had lost that much weight," she says. "I would be so happy and pleased with myself."
"Whenever someone's mean, I always get very analytical and I always say it's something inside that hurting them," La Toya continues. "It starts at home and it starts when you're a child. Something is hurting her to make her react that way to everyone. And that's just her. She can't help it. And I just want to say, 'Can't you put a smile on your face sometimes?'"

I've gotta say that my opinion of LaToya has greatly changed since her appearance on the Apprentice. Who knew that she was the most normal member of the Jackson clan?
A lot of people associate LaToya with the time she was with Jack Gordon in the 80s. He abused LaToya and made her appear as a staple on Geraldo and that made her look very troubled. She seems likeable and not that odd.
