Savor the inside scoop on over-the-top superstars
"I'm not a paranoid, deranged millionaire. . . . I'm a
billionaire!"
"Acting is an empty and useless profession."
"Good girls go to heaven. Bad girls go everywhere else."
"I'm interested in being provocative and pushing people's
buttons."
Which screen icons gave us the quotes above? How do stars get
away with self-indulgent, unrestrained behaviors--or do they? In
The Hollywood Book of Extravagance, longtime industry insider and
Hollywood historian James Robert Parish gives you a provocative
look behind the scenes at the lavish indulgences and
larger-than-life egos of Tinseltown's rich and famous. The featured
celebrities range from heartthrobs to industry tycoons, and from
yesterday's matinee idols to today's hottest celebs. The stars are
grouped according to their excesses: ego, neurosis, partying,
power, rich living, and romancing. You'll devour little-known
details on the excesses and exploits of notables ranging from Mae
West to Madonna, Greta Garbo to Marilyn Monroe and Marlon Brando,
Bela Lugosi to John Belushi, Zsa Zsa Gabor to Paris Hilton, Errol
Flynn to Jude Law, and many more.
