3.0 out of 5 stars Tips are worth trying., January 3, 2000

By 

Watujel (San Antonio, Texas) - See all my reviews

This review is from: How to Meet and Hang Out With the Stars: A Totally Unauthorized Guide (Paperback)

This book teaches you how to gain access to celebrities by a) Semi-truthfully suggesting that you're a member of the press, b) Cultivating contacts by setting up back-scratching deals with people close to celebrities like limo drivers, and c) In general marshaling all your chutzpah. Kind of like what gossip columnists do, except these guys seem to get off on just "hanging out" with the famous.

These strategies will indeed work and may get you into some cool parties, though not 100 percent of the time as the authors imply. You can follow as many or as few of their tips as you like, depending on how much free time you have and how much you really care about doing any of this.

Many of the book's celebrity bios, which fill nearly half the book, are dated by now, and some of the authors' opening line suggestions are pretty corny. Next time they should try more anecdotes and less filler.
