I honestly don't think Star's medical issues are anyone's business. All people have the right to privacy in terms of their medical issues or procedures. Just because she is in the public eye she does not have to tell the world about what is going on with her medically. I think she could have just said, "I'd prefer not to discuss my private medical issues publically" instead of making up some story. I don't think that she should have been presssured to talk about it on the show if she didn't want to though.
I agree! And she didn't have to discuss it with her former co-stars either...
