Surviving Hollywood: Givers, Takers, Friends & Heartbreakers by Robert Michael LehmannMy rating: 5 of 5 stars
The real people behind the image...
Celebrities intrigue us for many reasons. One of the most popular obsessions in the media today is celebrities. While most celebrities are of the movie actor and actress variety, there are also sports figures, musicians, models and socialites who fall into the celebrities' category. There are many magazines, blogs, websites and television shows devoted to celebrities and their various antics. Some of them seek out fame; others complain about it and try to avoid the spotlight as much as possible. But there is no question that celebrities and their lives are incredibly popular topics.
Surviving Hollywood: Givers, Takers, Friends & Heartbreakers by Robert Michael Lehmann gives the reader ‘an all-access backstage pass for an up-close and personal look at life inside the entertainment industry.’ This humorous and insightful book offers a behind the scenes look at the golden age of the ’70s & '80s television and recording industry.
The book has some very interesting stories about Elvis Presley, ‘the original Star Trek television series, and a behind-the-scenes look at The Tonight Show with insight into the personal lives of celebrities after the cameras were turned off and the real people behind the image emerged.’
Thoroughly enjoyed this fascinating quick read. A blast from the past as they say. Highly recommended.
