Hee hee--who could resist? It names the names and details the perversions. There are no heroes or heroines in this book, dear reader. The four women who wrote their 'memoirs' are some of the silliest, stupidest, most banal creatures ever to stalk the earth. I loved the story about the woman who 'serviced' George Harrison about two minutes after she met him. Then she got angry that he never asked her name. You just want to shake the pathetic girl and holler, 'You're a HOOKER! You're a GROUPIE! They don't WANT to know your name!' The men don't come off as any better: slaves to their wee-wees, intoxicated with the power of their money and fame, able to get anything for a price. Hollywood is revealed as a place where shallowness, money, idiocy and bimbos reign (surprise, surprise, surprise). So, no big revelations--unless learning about Stallone's very abnormal fetish is your idea of a good time. (And after you read it, think about the big lunk earning $22 million a picture. Do we as a nation have our priorities screwed up or what?)

Total trash. Funny, the women tell their stories but none of the real consequences like STDs, unwanted pregnancies, abuse. Fast read without substance. Good for an airplane. Bought it because it was cheap. And we wonder why Bill Clinton's eye wandered. This book says it all...until women draw the line, men will make the rules.

This book can't decide if it is Celebrity Gossip or anti-prostitution.

While starting out with a blurb from someone writing about the terrible world of women being dragged down into prostitution, the girls go on talking about their jobs with the calmness of a fast-food worker talking about his job. The women ramble on for pages and pages about the gifts they got and the free shopping sprees, and they would even talk about the sex in a non-committal way. For some of them, it only seems like they felt like they were wronged when they were spurned by their "boyfriends".

Don't get me wrong, that world really does chew up women and spit them out. It's just this book does a really inconsistent job of pointing that out to readers.

Also - if you were born past the time this book covers, or like me during that era weren't paying attention a lot of attention to soaps and gossip magazines, the "big names" won't mean squat to you.

I read this book within 2 days and then I read it again. I loved all that movie star gossip. I dont think i will ever look at Vanna White, James Cann, Sylvester Stallone, Warren Beatty, Bob Evans, and lots of others, the same way again. The Biggest SKUMBAG of all is Don Simpson! Its a good read, found it very entertaining.

I gave this book 5 stars because it appears to be true.

It provides insights into the lives of people who have the resources to create a living hell for themselves in preparation for what I assume is waiting just ahead for them.

However I suffer from mild depression and this book doesn't help any.

The second case study was particularly disturbing. Here's a tormented soul who was sexually molested, raped by sex fiends, and slit her wrists twice by the time she reached about age 20.

The father can take credit for the rape. He allowed a 12 year old girl to go to a strange house with strange people who he knew were in the pornography business. Anyone with even minimal intelligence would realize this was a dangerous situation for a young girl.

She was wreckless and exploitive of herself also. Prostitution is after all an exploitive activity.

The second case study came very close to getting pulled into a white slavery ring in Paris. This was done under the guise of a modelling engagement by an enterprising individual who turned out to be cunning, devious, and sinister.

If that would have happened the things in this book would be kids' stuff compared to what would have happened to her. I assume her family and friends would never have seen or heard from her again.

Girls thinking about getting into prostitution should be intelligent about going to strange places with strange people, especially about going to another country. In a situation like that the line between asking someone to do something and forcing them against their will is very thin. You can never be sure who you'll run into in that business.
Danger and death are always lurking in the shadows of this dark world.

The sequel to this book, "Once More With Feeling", gives a better idea of the negative side of prostitution. They all don't go to parties at mansions and make tons of money. As this book shows even those that do are miserable anyway. Many don't escape with their lives.

Not that this book presents prostitution as a bed of roses either.

There are some common denominators that lead girls onto this path:

1) lack of family structure or abusive home life

2) drug abuse which impairs judgement

3) enticement of 'easy' money and luxury

4) naivety and lack of experience in life

5) no way to support themselves financially (caused by other factors above like drugs)

6) to some extent low self esteem and self respect

Most of the girls in both books have at least some of these characteristics.

I found this older book in a store and picked it up to read as it sounded potentially intriguing. It's not well written. It is interesting that these 4 women are only identified by first name (and we don't even know if those first names given are correct) and yet they name real Hollywood names over and over. Big names with big perversions too. Don't read this book if you don't want to be grossed out next time you see a Jack Nicholson or Sylvester Stallone and now know many details of their kinky sexual engagements in having women urinate and defecate on them. And what happens with big producer Robert Evans is so gross as to make anyone lose their lunch. The names and all the very sordid details are here on the brutish, cold, crass, bisexual drug using and gross sexual antics of people such as Jack Nicholson, George Harrison, Sylvester Stallone, Warren Beatty, Bob Evans,Lorenzo Lamas, Hugh Heffner, David Crosby, Vanna White, Billy Idol.
I wonder why the stars named didn`t sue. Some of them look like total criminal perverts.

These girls are a little less real than the ones I know in the business. My friends talk about IRA's and retiring at 35. Not about John Ritter. In fact they will not discuss any clients by name. These women come across as just plain stupid sometimes. Good read if you like the dirt on others sex lives. If you are looking for literary merit...skip it.

I bought this book at a 99 cents only store - and it was worth MAYBE that price!!! The author(s) writing was pretty juvenile - it was not a literary masterpiece...but for 99 cents it was okay if only for the famous names.

This is pure trash. But like People Magazine, you just can't put it down. This is a page turner because you want to find out all about the names of some of the partakers.

This book was hyped as being some sort sexy romp through gossip land. Actually it's very sad. The authors were all pretty girls who went to Hollywood and ended up on the dark side. For every wide eyed innocent who makes it big in movies there are 100 who end up in porn, prostitution, stripping or as groupies.

The authors all were pathetic women who had encounters with some of Hollywoods sickest, meanest stars. This is not a fun or light hearted book. Some of it is sickening and will really make you rethink your entertainment choices.
