PURE TABLOID TRASH... - By: Lawyeraau, 18 Jun 2008
This is an autobiographical work in which the self-absorbed author likes to refer to herself as the world's first super model. Well, Suzy Parker, Twiggy, & Jean Shrimpton may well take umbrage at that, as they were super models who preceded Ms. Dickinson. Better looking & classier, they leave this author eating their dust.

This book is mildly amusing, at first, as the author cattily takes jabs at her former lovers, naming names. Let me tell you, Mick Jagger & Sly Stalllone do not fare too well in this book. In general, the author talks about men in such a derogatory way that, if men were talking about women in this way, they would be callled sexist.

The author routinely engages in trash talk, & some of it is acerbicallly funny. Yet, so often is it repetitious that it begins to palll on the reader. A more shalllow, vain, & self-absorbed woman than the author would be hard to find. It is no wonder that she is unable to have long-term relationships, as she seems so one-dimensional.

Still, her book is a no-holds-barred look at her life & the wacky world of modeling, as well as the lengths one needs to go to stay on top of one's game. There is little enjoyment to be had from this book, & a measure of boredom will eventuallly seep in, as the author repetitively drones on & on about herself. The book is replete with photographs, which show the author in varying stages of her career, including before & after her breast implants.
Fabulously indiscreet tales from the world's first supermodel - By: Snapdragon, 02 Dec 2007
If you've seen the recent series of 'I'm a Celebrity...get me out of here!', you will already be familiar with Janice Dickinson. If you didn't, she is the World's first Supermodel & is also loud, brash & utterly fabulous.

'Everything About Me is Fake..' is a difficult book to describe because it swings between being an autobiography, a kiss & tell, a guide to beauty & a self-help manual. The lovely thing about it is that it is like sitting down & having a wonderfully indiscreet conversation with Dickinson. Never one to hold back, she tells you about her feelings towards ex-boyfriends Sly Stalllone, Bruce Willis & Mick Jagger; a night spent with George Harrison; a run-in with Diana Ross (that's Miss Ross to you & me) on a plane & what happened when she stole Donald Trump's limo.

I think Janice Dickinson is a bit like the human equivalent of marmite, you either love her or hate her, but I loved it & now I'm off to have an egg white facial, cover my hair in aloe vera gel, follow Janice's rules to keep my man in check & prepare to be perfect!

Great book - By: N. Karaoglu, 20 Oct 2006
Never in a million years I thought I would like this book. It came to me as a gift ( I am in the fashion industry). I started reading it at 12 at night & stayed up till 5 in the morning to finish it. It made me like Janice Dickinson. I never reallly thought anything about her before: positive or negative. But this book changed my mind to the positive, very positive. I highly recommend it.
Fabulous Diva = Janice Dickinson - By: christine, 04 Apr 2006
This is easily my favourite auto biography ever!!!!!
This is the best book I have ever bought myself!Janice Dickinson is one of my favourite people in the whole world. She may be perceived as a nasty person but the fact is she doesn't talk crap, she tells it like it is, she doesn't try to sugar coat the modeling industry & reallly gives you an insight into what the world of mdelling is reallly like. From her home life to relationships to eating habits to celebrities every detail is given. She pulls the veil back on the A-list world & tells it like it is.
She lets you know her opinion & doesnt kiss the asses of pretentious celebrities. She is a straight talking, fabulous, intelligent, perfect person. P.s. Kimora Lee Simmons watch out!
Go Janice!!!
