Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: WHO'S SORRY NOW? Comment: In this year of public apologies for public, private, perceived and mis-perceived trangressions; and the increasing tendency in people to "tell all", for sympathy, attention and "big bucks", wouldn't you know that a talented author like James Dickerson would write a book recounting the creative ways in which 101 famous people apologized. Among the celebrities are Marilyn Monroe, Mike Tyson, Rob Lowe, President Clinton, Hugh Grant, and Garth Brooks----- yes that's right, Garth Brooks- what in the world does he have to apologize for? And even more unbelievable, Matt Groening, creator of the "Simpsons" and my favorite mischievious little boy- Bart Simpson.This book is filled with silly and serious apologies. Interested readers will find the stories to be entertaining fluff, like a "Saturday Night Live" telecast, or a Chris Rock monologue, or an evening with "Politically Incorrect" host, Bill Maher. Others will say, "Who Cares? Stop your groveling and get on with your life." In any case the author has done a fine job in looking at pop-culture history. Easy to read; a clever addendum to what you glean from newspaper reports. More Reviews
