Sure to be a treasured collector's item and conversation starter, Seeing Stars is filled with the sizzling stories and fun photos that have mesmerized millions of readers of People since its introduction in 1974. In that first year, Stephen King begins his reign of terror with Carrie, his first best seller. The next year, John Travolta enters our lives...as a sweathog Three years later, lady Diana Spencer appears in her first formal meeting with the man she thought would forever be her prince charming. Chapters on The World's Most Beautiful People and The Sexiest Men Alive capture the past three decades of megawatt stars that still shine - as well as those we remember only when we wonder, 'Whatever happened to...'' It's all part of the star studded tapestry that People Magazine has woven into Seeing Stars.

The dysfunctional families of Hollywood or otherwise high profile subjects have never been so obvious, and you'd swear their divorce rate was about 90%, not the typical 50% of society.
