LONDON SUNDAY TIMES BESTSELLER!
This official U.S. edition has been updated and revised since its publication in the UK.
“The insults go on and on in Joan Collins’s outrageously wonderful new memoir” – The London Sunday Times
“A riveting and great read for both fans of hers and those who haven’t previously delved into Joan’s life” – Woman & Home Magazine
Joan Collins has been a diarist from the age of twelve, writing enthusiastically over the years. She dictated most of the entries in real time into a mini-tape recorder at the end of the day, and now she is spilling the beans - well, nearly all of them. What you will discover was written by Joan between 1989 and 2009. Whether it is an encounter with a superstar or a member of the Royal Family, or her keen and honest insights into other celebrities at dinner parties and events, Joan is honest and unapologetic.
Taking us on a dazzling tour around the globe – from exclusive restaurants in Los Angeles to the glittering beaches of St. Tropez, from dinner parties in London to galas in New York City – some of the characters you will meet in these pages include Rod Stewart, Princess Margaret, Donald Trump, Michael Caine, Princess Diana, Elizabeth Taylor, Rupert Everett, Roger Moore, Shirley MacLaine, Andrew Lloyd Webber and many more.
Her diaries are intimate and witty, and they pull no punches with NO apologies to anyone mentioned in them!
Joan Collins is perhaps best known for playing Alexis Carrington in the globally popular television series Dynasty. She has appeared in over seventy films, hundreds of TV shows and over a dozen plays. She is also a best-selling author of seventeen books and many articles and editorials. She was made a Dame in 2015 by Queen Elizabeth II for her charity work and services to drama.
