Julia Allison an "Embarrassment" to Star, Unsurprisingly [Fameballs]

Translate Into:

Radar found an "inside source" to tell them the obvious on why Julia Allison's contract wasn't renewed as Star magazine's $100,000-a-year TV personality: "She was, frankly, an embarrassment to Star... She never really got it. It was all about Julia and self-promotion and herself. A lot of people were uncomfortable with her. She was just the wrong image for Star." The wrong image for a second-tier celebrity tabloid? Ouch. [Radar]
