Tabloid Prodigy: Dishing the Dirt, Getting the Gossip, and Selling My Soul in the Cutthroat World of Hollywood Reporting

This is a facinating book. It lets readers into the world of the tabloid journalist, how they work and how they will do anything to get the story. I see celebrities and journalists in a new light now. Marlise is very funny and a joy to follow. I would recommend this book to anyone!!

Many people are attracted to this book because of the celebrity factor. I was drawn to this book to read about the inner struggles of a young woman trying to to identify who she was between her conservative upbringing and the allure of Hollywood. Anyone who has walked the road of trying to figure themselves out can identify with the author. I will admit learning about the tactics tabloid reporters use to get their stories was quite entertaining as well. This is a great read not to be missed!

You aren't supposed to be able to reconcile Hollywood amorality and a tabloid writer's conscience, but Ms. Kast has done exactly that. She manages to entertain with typical tabloid-style titillating stories, but couches them all inside her own personal journey to a life of higher personal responsibility. A book set in Hollywood that is both entertaining and genuinely thought provoking? They said it couldn't be done...

Tabloid prodigy is a poignant tale of the author's journey into self-realization. This well written read is full of excitement and humor while giving the reader a full-frontal view of the seedy underbelly of tabloid journalism.

The author tells the honest and often hysterical truth about tabloid journalism making you feel as if you are on the adventures with her. She is honest about the messiness of life; of selling your soul and the search for redemption. The Tabloid Prodigy is a funny and yet poignant read.
