Keep this all between you and me, and do me a favor? Dont judge me if I name drop just a little. Television personality Ross Mathews likes telling stories.

Now that he has Hollywood experiencefrom interning behind the scenes at The Tonight Show with Jay Leno to judging RuPauls Drag Racehe has a lot to talk about. In Name Drop, Ross dishes about being an unlikely insider in the alternate reality that is showbiz, like that time he was invited by Barbara Walters to host The Viewonly to learn his hero did not suffer fools; his Christmas with the Kardashians, which should be its own holiday special; and his news-making talk with Omarosa on Celebrity Big Brother, which, as it turns out, was just the tip of the iceberg. Holding nothing back, Ross shares the most treasured and surprising moments in his celebrity-filled career, and proves that while exposure may have made him a little bit famous, he is still as much a fanboy as ever. Filled with tales ranging from the horrifying to the hilariousand with just the right Rossipes and cocktails to go along with themName Drop is every pop culture lovers dream come true. |
