Summary: Gerald Ford would be proud.
Comment: Being in college, I spend a good portion of my day watching TV. One highlight has always been "The Daily Show with Jon Stewart." As a result, I picked up this book. This might actually be the first book that I have wanted to read since the Horton series. And this is well worth the wait.
Stewart lets loose in this book, writing about 20 essays that start (mostly) in reality and end up somewhere around Oz. Most essays involve the twisted private lives of famous people, hence the title. These include Hitler, Bill Gates, the Hansons, The Kennedys, Jesus, President Ford and Martha Stewart, no relation. Some comment on current forms of media, such as AOL chat rooms and over-hyped award shows.
Overall, this book is packed quirky little things that made me laugh out loud. It is very clever, very well written and very funny. For those who know Stewart through "The Daily Show," I think you'll know what to expect. For anyone who likes well-written satire that doesn't involve pigs named Napoleon, here's your book. Just a note: this probably isn't for the faint of heart or youngin's, especially Martha Stewart's essay. But it's still darn funny.
Thank you Jon Stewart. Quite a moment of Zen.

Summary: A hilarous book from one of the ingenious comics of our time
Comment: Jon Stewart's "naked Pictures of Famous People" is one of the most ingenious comedy books to date. Stewart's style is both sartical,racy, and controversial. The essay entitled Local News is hilarous.It explores the hidden drunken bar hopping life of the Taco Bell Chihuauha unknown to the public. One of the funniest essays is the Devil and William Gates. Which ponders the question What if Bill Gates sold his soul? Overall the book is wonderful. The essays pen Pals and Gerald Ford tapes will have you laughing out loud. A marvoulous book filled with witty essays that will have you longing for more. A great find to add to your nightstand. Jon Stewart is a genius.
