Star Jones is getting lippy with former “Celebrity Apprentice” rival Lisa Rinna.
Jones says Rinna, who was booted off the show this past Sunday after they clashed repeatedly, has been harassing her with “foul” tweets and e-mails.
Jones, an attorney by trade, has even forwarded some of this info to NBC lawyers, according to eonline.com.
Jones has reportedly also reached out to lawyers from the Trump Organization and show producer Mark Burnett Productions.
Jones wouldn’t comment yesterday, but a source close to her said Rinna made “clear threats” that alarmed Jones.
“So the show, the lawyers and production all got involved because they were concerned for Star’s safety,” the source said.
Rinna was also-tight-lipped yesterday, but insiders say she sent Jones “one e-mail — that was it” last fall, when the show was in production.
On March 9, however, Rinna posted two photos to Twitter, both showing ghoulish monster heads.
The first photo was subtitled “Star Jones without her wig on!”
In the second photo, Rinna, wearing sunglasses, poses with a devilish figure (with horns). Her caption? “Great shot of me and Star Jones!”
Both photos have since been pulled down.
“Lisa really doesn’t know where this is coming from, or if Star is really doing something [regarding legal action] or why this is getting picked up all the sudden,” said a source.
“Celebrity Apprentice” host Donald Trump said he wasn’t aware of Jones involving his company in any potential legal action against Rinna — but didn’t downplay the toxic relationship between the two women.
“There was a lot of hatred [between them] in that boardroom, and that was one of the nice evenings compared to what’s coming,” Trump told The Post yesterday.
“I’m not surprised. They really hated each other big-time.”
The enmity between Jones and Rinna flared up when they were tasked on the show with writing a children’s book — and Rinna accused Jones of taking credit for writing the entire book.
Jones raised a record $170,000 for the American Heart Association on the March 6 season premiere of “Celebrity Apprentice.”
NBC officials had no comment yesterday.
