Synopsis

What would you do if you were born on Oscar night into Hollywood royalty? If you went to Vanity Fair parties rather than birthday parties? And if your life felt like a glamourous movie - but you were only an extra in it, playing boyfriendless, jobless hopeful no.310? Meet Lola Santisi. She's an Actorholic. Stuck in a pattern of dating beautiful actors then as soon as she's got over the dazzle of their teeth and the rockhard abs, realising they're just as self-obsessed as the last one. She's gone cold-turkey, and resolved to plough her energy into helping her friends instead. Julian, Lola's BGF (best gay friend), is a designer on the up. But he'll be down and out if he can't get someone to wear his designs on Oscar night so persuades Lola to become his Hollywood Ambassador. Lola's best friend Kate, is an ambitious young agent desperate to sign a big name. Together with their other friend, Cricket, a ditzy actress aspiring to play something other than a coma victims on ER, they must navigate through celebrity-hell if they're ever going to make it to the red carpet...

Book Overview: THE celeb-filled, gossip-packed, name-dropping, bling-toting wickedly funny read of 2008, CELEBUTANTES is a glorious Hollywood romp. Amanda and Ruthanna have got huge amounts of fantastic publicity lined up. They'll be featured in Cosmoplitan, Marie Claire and In Style, to name a few, and reviewed in all the important weeklies, like Heat magazine. Unlike so many other books in this market CELEBUTANTES is also brilliantly well-written. Painfully funny, shockingly accurate and with a heart of gold, you'll love the heroines just as much as you want to push their bitchy enemies off their sky-high Louboutin wedges... The authors have perfect Hollywood pedigrees. You know they're writing about real people and real scandal. Rights have been snapped up across the globe. 'A witty, incisive, under-the-sheets look at Oscar week. I loved it' Jackie Collins. 'Fashion, film stars and great fun - a young insiders's view of Hollywood!' Anjelica Huston.
