How to Lose Friends & Alienate People

Simon Pegg plays a celebrity-obsessed sycophant whose British fanzine inexplicably lands him a job with a glossy New York City magazine. Once Stateside, he uses his brash style to expose celebrities who are in it for fame’s sake and praise those who have genuine talent. In other words, How to Lose Friends & Alienate People argues for integrity in celebrity journalism, which is an oxymoron to the highest degree (and this is coming from someone who has engaged in it).
