For the past 15 years, pop culture journalist Nadja Sayej has interviewed over 500 celebrities, from A-listers to D-listers, 1980s heartthrobs to Instagram superstars and global icons. This compilation includes her best backstage stories from the red carpet, film festivals, art fairs and beyond, uncut and never seen before. In 25 candid short stories about her moments with the stars, she dishes on dinner with Kanye West in Miami, interviewing Salma Hayek in Venice and lunching with Steve Martin in Grand Central Station. Featuring backstage access over the past 10 years (2010 to 2020), it’s a peek into how she scored her major interviews with stars like Kathleen Turner, Spike Lee and Karl Lagerfeld, as well as what it has been like attending A-list events like Heidi Klum’s legendary Halloween party. This is all driven by her snarky observations, with photos taken by the female gaze. This book is released ahead of the 100 year anniversary of the red carpet, which is celebrated in 2022.
