"Celebrity Detox"

Love her or hate her, there is no denying that there is no false anything about Rosie. This book deals with the issues that accompany the heady drug of "celebity." It also documents her year on "The View" (minus the Hasselback brouhaha, which is not discussed). It becomes quickly apparently that Rosie walks that fine line between fat, poor kid from the Bronx and wealthy multi megastar. She agonizes over it throughout the book--and it's an excellent background into which to put all stars who make it big. In fact, as I was finishing it, I was watching a "Biography" special on Kelsey Grammer, where those interviewed were talking about his being shoved into the spotlight, becoming a megastar and being unable to handle that fame (witness Brittney Spears and all the other youngsters in the headlines these days). This book is raw truth on one level and a love letter to Barbara Walters, whom Rosie sees as somewhat of a substitute for the mother she lost at age 10, whose death she has never quite gotten over (as if any of us ever "get over" loss at any age). This won't be everybody's cup of tea, but I loved it.
