1 out of 5 stars Boring & Full of Info I've Read Multiple Times Before   March 3, 2008
Katharine Sullivan (Arizona)
7 out of 7 found this review helpful

I was excited when I saw this book on the shelf, and immediately bought it. I should've skimmed it first. I would've realized that I've heard all this information many times in other books and articles. All the information was so surface-level and mundane, that I had to force myself to finish the book. Additionally, in all honesty, I really am not convinced that this book includes the REAL diet and workout plans for these big-name stars. People simply don't look as thin as these celebs do by "hiking in the hills with my dog and drinking green tea!". Either way, I don't recommend this book unless, I suppose, you're a beginner with clean nutrition and working out.


4 out of 5 stars More than Secrets Revealed!   February 26, 2008
Indulge Party (Agoura HIlls, CA)

I was pleasantly surprised when I received the book for a few reasons... First, it's not just a book of recipes for homemade diet programs, or lose weight quick schemes. The Hollywood book of Diet Secrets was more of a spiritual collection of women who genuinely love and respect their bodies, and who know that with self-appreciation comes outward beauty.

Second, because I was appalled watching the Oscars last night when I could easily see the Botox and Collagen injections that are being abused by high profile celebs, and was happy to see those women weren't included in this book. Yes, I know women like to use any methods available to maintain their youthful appearances, but what about natural beauty and aging gracefully?

And lastly, because my contribution was included with Sheila Kelly in the chapter about striptease!

5 out of 5 stars OMG, They Have Done It Again!!! Another BeautyMaster "Must Read!"   February 21, 2008

Cindy and Kym have done it again; a compilation of great weight loss ideas and tips from Hollywood's super-sexy celebs! This book provides valuable and proven information on diets, recipes and weight loss methods that are sure to give you the body that you really want and need. I'm looking good after following their advice :-)


3 out of 5 stars Nothing I Haven't Heard Before   January 26, 2008
Patricia Panagiotidis (Canada)
I gave the book 3 stars because it was interesting and definitely a fun read. There were some helpful diet tips and it's always great to see how the stars stay so slim. However, a lot of the information was repetitive and I felt like I never really learned anything from it. Rent it from a library, don't buy it!


5 out of 5 stars great read   January 24, 2008

I have seen this author Kym Douglas on the Ellen Show, wow she has more energy and excitement than a 10 year old boy making their first touchdown! She seems to be just as talented in the writing department.I have always wanted to know what the stars do to keep their slick bodies and the tips in Hollywood Beauty Secrets are easy and not expensive. It is a fun read and a great topic for discussion for the next time the "girls" get together. I enjoyed her other book
Hollywood Beauty Secrets. I wonder what is next?
