The Greeks honored Zeus, the Romans revered Juno, but modern civilization worships a different sort of god: Celebrity. Face it, we follow the stars every move, fashion choice, and deliciously dishy affairs. Now Kathryn Petras and Ross Petras, authors of Unusually Stupid Americans, pull the demanding divas, screwball stars, and celebu-twits off their pedestalsand prove it doesnt take a degree in rocket science to become famous. Cases in point: Courtney Love misses an important court date relating to possession of a controlled substance because she cant find a professional bodyguard at the last minute. Mariah Careys entourage includes a skirt-from-touching-floor specialist, a towel hand-off person, and a professional drink holder/lifter. Savvy traveler Paris Hilton concludes that all of Europe is, like, French. Mensa candidate and rocker Tommy Lee is pretty sure that Winston Churchill was president during the Civil War, that the numeric equivalent of pi is the two-equals-MC-squared thing, and that an isosceles triangle is somewhere in Bermuda. Feuds, faith, family, money, sex, tantrums, travelno star-studded stone is left unturned. Filled with jaw-dropping anecdotes, quirky quotes, and special stupid-celebrity awards, Unusually Stupid Celebrities provides a red-faced glimpse of the red carpet.From the Trade Paperback edition.
