The subject of intense media and public fascination, Paris Hilton is one of the most-discussed celebrities of her generation. From the teenage party girl who was "famous for being famous," she has blossomed into an actress, pop star, and successful businesswoman. Paris's story takes readers behind the scenes of the most exclusive fashions shows, premieres, and parties. This revealing portrait covers the strings of famous men she has dated, including Leonardo DiCaprio and Backstreet Boy Nick Carter. Her list of friends is just as star-studded, including Britney Spears, Lindsay Lohan, and her The Simple Life costar Nicole Ritchie. Lifting the lid on the controversies that have plagued her life, the book tells for the first time the full story of the sex-tape saga and her 2007 imprisonment. Defying her critics, Paris emerged from jail with a fresh sense of perspective and renewed energy. Paris Hilton: Life on the Edge offers unique insight into her complex character and shows that jail was the making and not the breaking of her.
