Cow Can't Sleep

How I Got Skinny, Famous, and Fell Madly in Love

<div> "Thick. Heavy. Big-boned. Plump. Full-figured. Chunky. Womanly." To Emery Jackson, these phrases are just nice euphemisms for the big "F" word of "fat." But to her workout fiend dad, underwear model sister, and former Laker Girls mother, they are unacceptable states of being. Emery's cash-strapped family's solution? Signing up for a reality TV show in which Emery will have to lose fifty pounds in fifty days in order to win a million dollars. As the pounds start to drop and the ratings skyrocket, Emery feels the weight of success. And she must figure out how to turn the truths she uncovers--about beauty, love, fame, and family--into the keys to more than just fortune. </div>

HOLLYWOOD HUSSEIN: HOW THE U.S. >REALLY< CAPTURED SADDAM George W. Bush has been keeping a real big secret from America. Texas big! And we're not talking about his secret crush on Paris Hilton. No, what Bush really doesn't want you to know is how Hollywood helped him capture Saddam Hussein. Shhh. Bush doesn't want you to know he recruited tabloid journalist Tom Peppers and a rag-tag team of paparazzi to do the job the CIA could not. He doesn't want you to know he hired sexy celubutante London Marriott to distract America. Bush especially doesn't want the public to know he turned to Arnold Schwarzenegger and a reality-TV guru to create the first presidentially produced reality show, Who Wants To Be An American Hero. Well, too bad, W! Hollywood Hussein uncovers it all. In Hollywood Hussein, author Ken Baker presents phone transcripts, classified documents and his very own interiews with the key players in Bush's top-secret "Operation Hollywood." Indeed, Hollywood Hussein reveals the previously untold story behind Saddam's curiously Hollywood-like capture in December 2003 from a spider hole in Iraq. The White House in Hollywood Hussein is one where the president uses weekly magazine sales figures - rather than scientific polls - to guage popular opinion, where the president spends more time plotting propaganda with Karl Rove than planning policy with Colin Powell, and where unlikely heroes emerge to save America from itself. Hollywood Hussein's hilariously scathing depiction of the events surrounding Saddam's capture not only will have you laughing, but the book's shocking final twist will also make you question everything you see on the news, not to mention the next thing you hear out of a politician's mouth.
