  This title offers a tantalizing peek behind Hollywood's most hard-to-handle leading ladies. From the birth of the silver screen, It Girls laid down a sequined trail of self-indulgence and scandalous bad behavior. The stars in this exclusive sorority are both loved and loathed by the press, the fans, and even by each other. Bette Davis once said of Joan Crawford, I wouldn't sit on her toilet! Crawford and Davis raised the bar for the women who followed them into Diva-dom. Hollywood Divas traces that glittering path from legendary icons to today's most high-maintenance celebrities of film and TV. It includes such stars as: Gloria Swanson, Joan Crawford, Judy Garland, Marilyn Monroe, Cher Madonna, Julia Roberts, Jennifer Lopez, and Britney Spears. Bestselling showbiz author James Robert Parish delivers an eye-popping behind-the scenes peek into the wild private lives of 70 rampaging bad girls of Hollywood.
