His mama got knocked up one hot Hollywood night by Cary Grant. Or maybe it was John Wayne. She isn’t quite sure as she was quite snockered at the time. It was all a big fat blur from which came... More > a big fat bastard. So, not sure who the daddy is, she names her fourteen-pound-four-ounce bubbling, blubbery baby after both: Wayne Grant. One would think that a lad with such pedigree would grow up to be a handsome hunk and get into pictures. But his is not a face like Cary Grant's. Nor is his body even closely resembling John Wayne's. But try telling this homely schnook, this delusional doofus, this portly putz, as he doggedly auditions for handsome leading-man roles—and becomes the laughing stock of Tinseltown. Enter Wayne's world and discover the most unusual lap dancers, rhyming ruffians, looney goons, conniving cons, flimflam scams, murder, mayhem, misfits, moguls, megastars, mishuginahs, mama mia—and the world's most handsome man. You'll also discover Hollywood's seedy underbelly—and many a belly laugh.< Less
