Review
"I never had so many women ask me, 'Can I touch it?' sadly, they were talking about the statuette." --Ben Affleck, screenwriter and actor, on his Oscar "I am defined by the world as a talk-show host. But I am spirit, connected to the greatest spirit." --Oprah Winfrey "The prescription drug industry is spending one billion more dollars a year on advertising than they are on developing new jugs, er...drugs." --Bill Clinton "My father was a businessman. He was a good father. He came home every night for dinner at five." --Victoria Gotti Agnello, daughter of John Gotti, mafia Don "They say Elvis is dead. He is not dead. He's just a different color. He's 6ft. 8in., 225 lbs., plays basketball, and he's black." --Dennis Rodman "I've often said, 'the only thing standing between me and greatness is me." --Woody Allen -- Review

5.0 out of 5 stars Find Out What Happens When Hollywood's Publicists Get Sick!, July 20, 2000
By A Customer
A hilarious laugh riot, They Said That! exposes celebrities who choose to speak when their publicists aren't around to help them.

Could Carmen Electra be any dumber? Yes! With pages upon pages devoted to the verbally challenged who make up Hollywood's elite (in addition to dozens of atheletes, politicians, etc), They Said That! is sure to amuse. I recommend this book to all lovers of popculture.

5.0 out of 5 stars A record of our times!, July 15, 2000
By A Customer
Engelmann's They Said That! includes insights and verbal slips that will incite a "laughfest." This is a hilarious compilation that sheds light on more than two thousand celebrities. I highly recommend this book. They Said That! is a refreshing reference of pop-culture...a comical treasure of our times.

5.0 out of 5 stars The most hilarious book I've ever read, June 27, 2000
By Emily Wu (California) - See all my reviews
This is the most hilarious book I've ever read. I was laughing so hard as I turned the pages that my stomach was hurting and had to put the book down to catch a breath. There are funny lines on every page. No matter what types of jokes you prefer,you will be able to find something humorous in this book. I highly recommend it.
