This A-list selection looks in depth at 25 notable murders involving those who live their lives in the full beam of press and media headlights, including film starlets, tv actors, music legends, comedians, fashion moguls, movie directors, playwrights and aristocracy from the start of the twentieth century to the present day.

Download or read book Celebrity in Death written by J. D. Robb and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2012-08-07 with total page 386 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this thriller in the #1 New York Times bestselling In Death series, Lieutenant Eve Dallas must solve the murder of an actress whose final role was to die for... Lieutenant Eve Dallas is no party girl, but she’s managing to have a reasonably good time at the celebrity-packed bash celebrating The Icove Agenda, a film based on one of her famous cases. It’s a little spooky seeing the actress playing her, who looks as though she could be her long-lost twin. Not as unsettling, though, as seeing the actress who plays Peabody—drowned in the lap pool on the roof of the director’s luxury building. Talented but rude and widely disliked, K.T. Harris made an embarrassing scene during dinner. Now she’s at the center of a crime scene—and Eve is more than ready to get out of her high heels and strap on her holster to step into the role she was born to play: cop.

Book excerpt: Celebrity confers burdens as well as blessings on those it touches, but often the two are indistinguishable. The trappings of celebrity - the relentless exposure, vast wealth, devoted admirers, a license to outrage - can have a dark side, providing a fertile ground for the obsessions, greed, and envy that sometimes drag the famous, and those around them, down to murder. In each case, the powerful magnet of celebrity drew the players together as if on a stage; in the last act, violence shattered their seemingly privileged. lives, and tragedy unfolded.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hollywood is the place where dreams are made. Yet, it can also be the source of many nightmares as well. Many are surprised to learn of all of the tragic deaths that have been inflicted upon Hollywood celebrities. In this book are some of the most shocking stories. Download FREE with Kindle Unlimited! Hollywood has long fascinated the masses. Not just with blockbuster films, but also by way of the Hollywood lifestyle. The lives of the rich and famous stars who strut down Sunset Boulevard hold us mesmerized. One can't help but wonder about what being a celebrity must really be like. And the same goes for Hollywood tragedy. When tragedy occurs, people can't help but find themselves drawn to the spectacle. Cases of celebrities being murdered in particular are bound to get attention. Some of the cases mentioned in this book are rather clear-cut instances of murder, while others still remain a complete mystery to this very day. It was quite obvious for example, who the culprits were in the deaths of aspiring actresses Rebecca Schaeffer and Dominque Dunne, since the killers of these two aspiring actresses, readily admitted to doing the killing. These tragic instances have shown that even the rich and famous are just as vulnerable as the rest of us. Then again, for Hollywood screenwriter Gary Devore, there was no such luck. In fact, when the celebrated writer was found with his hands cut off, no one seemed to have a clue as to what had happened to him. Here in this book, we will highlight some of the most infamous Hollywood murders, along with a few that you might not have heard much about, including: George Reeves Bruce Lee Desmond Taylor Selena Lana Clarkson Kristi Johnson Bob Crane And many more!

Download or read book Celebrity Mad written by Brett Kahr and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2019-08-28 with total page 132 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This short book by Professor Brett Kahr provides a psychoanalytic understanding of fame and celebrity in the early twenty-first century, building upon the bedrock foundations of the Freudian corpus. The book is divided into six chapters. Chapter One explores the psychology of the celebrity, questioning narcissistic and exhibitionist psychopathology, while Chapter Two examines the psychological state of those of who revel in the fame of others and in celebrity culture more broadly, and offers a discussion of the "Celebrity Worship Syndrome". Chapter Three provides a very brief history of the concept of celebrity itself, arguing that, contrary to popular opinion, the culture of celebrification cannot be blamed on twenty-first-century media moguls, but, rather, that such a preoccupation with famous personalities can be traced back to ancient times and demonstrates the need to broaden our analysis to include the role of deep, unconscious psychological forces. In Chapter Four, Kahr reviews some important theoretical concepts advanced by Freud and Winnicott, which provide an important foundation for the psychoanalytic study of fame, while Chapter Five provides a more comprehensive theory of the unconscious psychological roots of the need to worship fame and to seek it, drawing upon a multitude of sources, ranging from psychoanalytic theory and developmental psychological research, to film, archaeology, and, perhaps surprisingly, the history of infanticide. The book concludes, in Chapter Six, by studying the psychodynamics of celebrity and fame, arguing that being recognised by one’s family and friends in the intimate context of home life may well be the very best way to become a celebrity. Celebrity Mad outlines a psychoanalytic theory of the roots of our obsession with fame. It will be of great interest to psychoanalytic practitioners and researchers, as well as to readers interested in the psychology of fame.

Book excerpt: Why do so many Celebrities die young from prescription overdoses? The tabloids and the news media have raised so many questions about Celebrity overdose deaths that this book will examine what causes it. Also we examine why other Celebrity deaths not connected to overdoses go unsolved. Then we examine how the Stalking of the Stars by obsessed fans can be so disruptive of a Celebrities life. On other occasions the Celebrity may be the target of an extortion attempt based on risqué photos that may have been taken years earlier. We examine the lives of the following celebrities: MARILYN MONROE, ANNA NICOLE SMITH, MICHAEL JACKSON, JOHN BELUSHI, NATALIE WOOD, THELMA TODD, CAMERON DIAZ, TERESA SALDANA, REBECCA SCHAEFFER, MADONNA, MEL GIBSON, CATHERINE ZETA JONES, JOHN CUSACK, STEVEN SPIELBERGThe purpose of this book is to inform the public that there is a high price one has to pay if one wants to live the Celebrity life style. In some ways the non-Celebrity life may be less stressful and one can better 'smell the roses' as one travels through life.
