[edit] Program Summary
The series, hosted by A.J. Benza, detailed the lives of various celebrities, both well known and somewhat obscure. Most celebrities that were featured endured hardships or died tragically. The series interviewed various celebrities who knew the subject along with still photographs accompanied by narrations, and dramatic reenactments.
The show was highly stylized and presented each episode in a noir fashion with backdrops set in various Hollywood locations and narrated in a deadpan fashion by Benza. Benza's memorable catchphrase "Fame, ain't it a bitch.", would later became the title of his autobiography.[1]
Episodes were broadcast in syndication on E! for a period of time after the series' initial run.
