In a candid, witty autobiography, America's leading gossip columnist shares the story of her own life and the celebrities she has encountered, describing her journey from a rural Texas childhood to the heights of the entertainment world. Reprint.

"...Smith offers a unique history of gossip...But it's the dish that will draw the most readers to this congenial book, and Smith doesn't disappoint...."

Publishers Weekly, 9/18/2000

"NATURAL BLONDE has caused a bit of scandal itself because Smith does not address her own sexuality as squarely as some observers consider de rigueur in a memoir, especially a memoir by a professional snitch. She has been chastised for not sharing intimate details of her relationships with various women, including the archaeologist Iris Love. But Smith has never been one to report from under the covers, hers or anybody else's. As we breezed through NATURAL BLONDE, we felt quite satisfied knowing the cheerful highlights of her passion for untouchable celebrities -- tales of swoonfulness around Rock Hudson, Warren Beatty, Robert Redford and Frank Sinatra that read like entries in a bobby-soxer's diary. As for what she personally has done in bed, more information would not have been welcome. Liz Smith gives a rosy buildup to her love life and then, like the camera in the melodramas she loved so much as a Texas girl, she discreetly pans away. As a lifelong movie buff, this Natural Blonde knows that imagination can fill in the details."
