This story won't unfold before you like a lazy paced beach read. No, it's bitchy. It'll hurdle at you and then jab you where it hurts. Told through jump cuts and snarky remarks, this is a story about self-hatred and the life-long hunt for salvation.
First she's an NYU senior, making the most of her little life in big ole New York City, far from the spotlight, far from exploding paparazzi bulbs. Then enter Harry Styles, the heartthrob in every fairy tale - just with better hair - and she's suddenly Hollywood's new It girl. The perks are scarce and few, but damn, are they glittery.
This is Rosie Young's exposé of what's at the core of young Hollywood's world. What it's like to melt under the spotlight. How it feels to be mute with a microphone in your face. Because even when you're noticed, you're still ignored.
Inspired by Chuck Palanuik's 'Invisible Monsters' and our obsession with the young and famous.
