Summary

His famous face is seen nationwide on television commercials touting beer and rental cars. Now he brings the same wacky humor and outrageous high jinks to his life story: his incredible, unbelievable - and absolutely untrue - movie star "autobiography!"" "Lavished with fabulous photographs you won't believe when you see them, anecdotes you can't wait to tell your friends, zany characters, and caricatures of famous people at their most outrageous, THE NAKED TRUTH is a hilarious, entertaining romp through four decades plus of show business - the great escape read of the season!"--BOOK JACKET.Title Summary field provided by Blackwell North America, Inc.
