Stephen "Steve-O" Glover has made a career of doing crazy, dangerous, unhealthy, ill-advised stunts for the amusement, delight and occasional disgust of audiences around the world. Besides being one of the breakout stars of Jackass' three-season run on MTV, Steve-O starred alongside fellow Jackass alum Chris Pontius in the extreme travel show Wildboyz, which ran on MTV for four seasons and his own Dr. Steve-O series on the USA Network. In 2009, the newly sober Steve-O lasted six weeks on the ABC reality series, Dancing With the Stars, despite the fact that he couldn't dance to save his life. He figured prominently in the first two Jackass feature films, both of which debuted at #1 at the box office, and will be a main player again in the third installment, Jackass 3D, which hits theatres in October 2010. He's also been a frequent guest on the Tonight Show with Jay Leno, the Howard Stern Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, and Loveline. Professional Idiot is his first book.

Descrizione libro Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Written by one of the most beloved lunatics of our time, Professional Idiot tells Steve-O's story in full and often shocking detail -- the debauchery, the stunts, the drug addiction and, finally, the path to recovery and redemption. Fame can be addictive. From his early days videotaping crazy skateboard stunts to starring in the blockbuster Jackass franchise, there was little that Stephen "Steve-O" Glover wouldn't do for attention. Whether it was stapling his nutsack to his leg, diving into a pool full of elephant crap or routinely risking death invading the private lives of sharks, lions, tigers and bears, almost nothing was out of bounds. As the stunts got crazier, his life kept pace. He developed a crippling addiction to drugs and alcohol, and an obsession with his own celebrity that proved nearly as dangerous. After detours to several hospitals, a couple jails, and Ringling Bros. and Barnum & Bailey Clown College, he landed, quite naturally, on MTVs Jackass, in 2000. He took to fame like it was the very thing missing from his life, but it was never enough. He filled the void with booze and drugs, and soon, began treating his entire life like it was one bigand supremely riskystunt. In 2008, Steve-O holed up in his West Hollywood apartment, where he drank, snorted, smoked, huffed and swallowed drugs around the clockand began broadcasting his downward spiral on the Internet. Finally, his Jackass comrade Johnny Knoxville and seven other friends staged an intervention and forced him into a psychiatric ward against his will, ultimately saving his life. Today he has been clean and sober for more than three years. Steve-O Glover has made a career out of doing crazy stunts, including broadcasting on the Internet his spiral into drug addiction. In this account he tells how his craving for attention developed, how friends saved his life & how he has fought back successfully.
