From Holywood to Hollywood

My Life as an International Libel Lawyer to the Rich and Famous

About this book

Described as 'the most powerful man in Hollywood', Paul Tweed has been consulted by Britney Spears, Ashton Kutcher, Sylvester Stallone, Justin Timberlake, Liam Neeson, Harrison Ford, Sinéad O'Connor, Sarah Ferguson and many more global personalities often leading to explosive and headline-grabbing cases.

In this engrossing book, internationally renowned libel lawyer Paul Tweed lays bare the reality of representing the world's biggest names. During his four-decade career, he has successfully represented scores of A-list celebrities, members of the British Royal Family and numerous global entrepreneurs, with many media giants being forced to withdraw stories, issue apologies or make substantial payouts.

From fighting for the beleaguered Britney Spears, to advising Prince Andrew against his controversial Newsnight interview, Tweed has seen it all. Here, he thrusts the reader into the centre of some of the most incendiary, high-profile defamation lawsuits of his career.

From Holywood to Hollywood is a riveting glimpse behind the scenes of a high-octane career navigating huge egos and high stakes to protect the reputations of the most visible and sometimes most vulnerable stars on earth.
