The A-List Playbook
Fabulous may be the best word to describe The A-List Playbook: How to Survive Any Crisis While Remaining Wealthy, Famous, and Most Importantly, Skinny.
This humorous and thoroughly entertaining "how-to" on Hollywood life is something of which anyone with a sense of humor and an interest in Hollywood should grab a copy.
This book is witty and sharp. Basically, any celebrity who has made headlines in the last few years is probably inside the covers of this book. Every celebrity who has made a big public "no-no," or appeared to abuse their celebrity status, is likely mocked in this book. A sinfully delicious peek into this book will satisfy anyone with an interest in the glam-o-rama that is Hollywood, while still cutting down those big names a notch or two, for the requisite (not quite cruel, but smashingly funny) effect.
The tongue-in-cheek guide includes sections like "A-Lister's Survival Kit," which includes a puppy, a blackberry, iPod, press clippings, drugs and Chanel sunglasses. Also available to feast one's eyes on include sections on "Children and Other Personal Projects," "Fight Back Against Press Attack," "Emergency Scenario: Your Child Has Peed on Its $235 Cashmere Blanket," "Emergency Scenario: A Chair Is Bothering You," "Emergency Scenario: You Must Pay for Something" and "Emergency Scenario: Your Posse Is Too Large."
Don't be surprised if this totally engaging book, full of moments of "oh my gosh, did she really just say that?? I love that she did" fun, ends up as a 2009 best seller.
