In this entertainment industry expose, Andrew Breitbart and Mark Ebner pull back the curtain to reveal the twisted culture of Hollywood and the preposterous penchants of today's high-profile celebrities. From John Travolta, Tom Cruise, and Anne Heche to Eddie Murphy, Oliver Stone, and Courtney Love, Hollywood, Interrupted presents the mind-altered behavior of the most reality-challenged celebrities from all walks of life and every genre. Hollywood, Interrupted explores how the pathological behavior of celebrities has destroyed comedy, snuffed relationships, and demeaned family values. Each chapter delivers a meticulously researched, interview-infused, attitude-heavy dispathch -- which analyzes and deconstructs the myths created by celebrities and their way-too-protective handlers. You'll enter a world where: Celebrities and Hollywood power players engage in "cyber," "off-line" sex and subterfuge with a young America Online customer service agent; "Young Hollywood" swing clubs and "porno-tainment" become mainstream diversions; Statutory rapist Roman Polanski can win a Best Director Oscar, but can't collect it because of the criminal conviction against him in the United States; Some of the most famous stars send their children to an elite high school with a curriculum that includes extracurricular cross-dressing and a mandatory pseudo-therapeutic program called "Mysteries"; Celebrity nannies get so stressed they've formed a Beverly Hills support group; Matthew Perry, Robert Downey Jr., and Ben Affleck, among others, vacation at "five star" rehab resort centers; Hollywood Madame Heidi Fleiss can emerge from prison a born-again celebrity, ready to cash in. Frequently hysterical and occasionally frightening, Hollywood, Interrupted digs deep to uncover how in Hollywood cults rule, Dr. Feelgood stands ready to fill your prescription, celebrity kids shoot speedballs, and your neighbor runs a brothel. Both entertaining and engaging, Hollywood, Interrupted reveals the real Hollywood and mocks the movie mavens, sitcom screwballs, and musical misfits who view being on medication, under house arrest, in rehab, or on deathwatch as just part of the job. 650 0 $a Motion picture actors and actresses $z Los Angeles $z Los Angeles $v Anecdotes. 651 0 $a Hollywood (Los Angeles, Calif.) $x Social life and customs. 700 1 $a Ebner, Mark C. 856 42 $3 Contributor biographical information $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/bios/wiley046/2004299042.html 856 42 $3 Publisher description $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/description/wiley041/2004299042.html 856 41 $3 Table of contents $u http://www.loc.gov/catdir/toc/wiley041/2004299042.html 941 $a 6 952 $l GBPF771 $d 20231003012735.0 952 $l LAPH975 $d 20200528030049.0 952 $l UNUX074 $d 20181010012053.0 952 $l URAX314 $d 20170609035454.0 952 $l KSPG296 $d 20090701080000.0 952 $l CDPF771 $d 20090701080000.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=F663D6282B0511DE80C1F007A8D7520A 994 $a 03 $b IW9Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
