Book description
SEXUAL DEVIANTS, NAZI SPIES, DANGEROUS LONERS, COMMUNISTS, DRUG
ADDICTS, TRAITORS, AND MOBSTERS.
THIS IS HOLLYWOOD. DECLASSIFIED.
It's tough being rich and famous -- stalked, photographed, hounded,
and dissected. But obsessive celebrity watching has a lurid history
that began long before tabloid shutterbugs took their first shot. Here
for the first time are the recently declassified celebrity files of
the FBI, the CIA, and the military, giving the private dirt on the
most "suspect, dangerous and immoral" public figures in the
world -- from George Burns to Andy Warhol.
EXPOSED! The panty parties and massive porn stash of comedian Lou
Costello.
EXPOSED! Ernest Hemingway enlisted as a spy on behalf of the
American Embassy.
EXPOSED! The sexual drives of our youth aroused beyond normalcy by
Elvis Presley.
EXPOSED! Hollywood honey Marilyn Monroe had shocking ties to Soviet
Russia.
EXPOSED! Mysterious death of Princess Di a threat to national
security.
What were the motivating factors behind the spying, the suspicions,
and the accusations? What did those motivations actually reveal about
the military, the CIA, the FBI, and the mood of the country? The
answers make for a startling, insightful, astonishing, outrageous,
sometimes shocking, and always controversial peek into the most secret
of lives.
