Pressestimmen
“Cojo mostly succeeds with his lighthearted take on tragedy—and ability to laugh at his new steroid-infused booty.” (Entertainment Weekly )
Kurzbeschreibung
Before Steven Cojocaru was diagnosed with polycystic kidney disease, he could never have imagined himself living anything other than a high-glam Hollywood lifestyle. A bon vivant on two coasts, he held jobs as both the red carpet guru for Entertainment Tonight and the fashion correspondent for the Today show, hauling his suitcase full of flat irons and designer boots from New York to Los Angeles and back again, every week. He was Cojo, professional glamour boy with a barbed tongue who went shopping with J.Lo and traded fashion tips with Gwyneth.
But a painful and ironically unglamorous reality would begin to form itself around his life, and Cojo found himself with a new Rolodex of A-List friends: The kidney team at Cedars-Sinai Medical Center in Los Angeles.
In a memoir that moves beyond the celebrity, Glamour, Interrupted is an inspiring and darkly humorous story about how, in the midst of a world obsessed with youth and beauty, Cojo survived what turned out to be the fight of his life. From drug-induced meltdowns to waking up in the hospital on life support, Cojo recounts his desperate hunt for a new kidney—after a failed transplant and months of dialysis—that ended with a twist of fate and forged an even stronger bond with his mother.
With a bit of eye cream, a little concealer, and just a touch of bronzer, he found a strength he didn't know he had, and used his unfaltering sense of humor to help him survive.

Interesting, moving and engrossing @}->---

Steven has written another great book. I have watched him on ET and Today and find him highly amusing, entertaining and seemingly like a fun person. I bought this book because I feel like I 'know' him and was shocked when I learnt several years back how sick he was. He wrote this book very well and mingles humour and painful recollections of his ordeal. I found it interesting how he percieved that his sickness could be the end of his Hollywood career. Only in Hollywood right?
It's not a totally depressing book - in fact it's very heartwarming. I really enjoyed it and think that it's good for anyone who watches Cojo on the red carpets or on ET, or for someone who knows someone going through this very trying time. A well written book that was enjoyable and moving.

Cojo Rocks! (And so does "Glamour Interrupted.")

Love Cojo! LOVE HIM! Was obsessed with Cojo way before this book ever existed and love him even more now! Knew he had the glamour part down, but now I learn he's got the substance too??? Talk about the whole package! Truth be told, we all sweat the small stuff way too often. His book serves as a wake up call reminding us of what really matters. And YES Sista, there is more to life than Manolo's. In "Glamour Interrupted," Cojo inspires us all "to put on our big girl panties." Seriously, what I wouldn't give for a lunch at The Ivy with this man...

I love this book!!!!

My husband has PKD and his mother is preparing for a kidney transplant. I knew who Cojo was but had no idea about his ordeal until reading about his book in last week Peoples magazine. I went to the bookstore on Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and finally found it on the shelf Thursday. I loved this book! Cojo is funny, sweet, brave and bit*&y all at the same time. The truth about PKD is still ugly but reading this book made it a little less terrifying. I am now a Cojo fan.
