Even More Outrageous
Celebrity Meltdowns

Pop-Up Parodies of Your Favorite Stars

Pop-Ups by Kees Moerbeek
Illustrations by Mick Coulas
Written by Heather Havrilesky

Fast on the heels of the wildly popular Pop-Up Book of Celebrity Meltdowns comes its equally raucous, irreverent sequel, EVEN MORE OUTRAGEOUS CELEBRITY MELTDOWNS. Mick Coulas creates outrageously humorous caricatures that are brought to life by Kees Moerbeek's inventive paper engineering. These fantastic images are accompanied by explanations of each event from writer Heather Havrilesy.

EVEN MORE OUTRAGEOUS CELEBRITY MELTDOWNS presents nine new examples of celebrity behavior gone horribly, horribly wrong. The book features meltdowns including Mel Gibson's drunken, anti-Semitic tirade, Nicole Richie's intoxicated drive down the L.A. Freeway heading in the wrong direction, and Britney Spears caught driving with her baby in her lap, among six other hilarious depictions of this year's most insane celebrity antics.

The first Pop-Up Book of Celebrity Meltdowns was covered extensively in the press by the likes of CNN, Court TV, the New York Times, the Today show, Bravo, TMZ, Variety, and Esquire; it was also included in many year-end round-ups as one of the best gift books of 2006. EVEN MORE OUTRAGEOUS CELEBRITY MELTDOWNS promises to follow in its footsteps and become a cult classic.
