Paula Froelich Has Written a Book. (And Seen Nick Nolte with His Pants Down!)

Today marks the release of Page Six editrix Paula Froelich's first novel, "Mercury in Retrograde" about three very New York-y women who are bound by a common address on Sullivan Street in Manhattan (the author's actual place of residence).

Already lauded by the local literati, the new book has put Froelich in the limelight for a change. Here's how she responds:

StyleList: Are any of the stories real-life experiences translated into fictional accounts?


Paula Froelich: Absolutely, my job served as inspiration. After 9 ½ years at Page Six, I have seen and experienced some of the craziest things I never dreamed were possible. Like the Kitty Foil scene at the Met gala where she roller blades through the event causing mass destruction -- that actually happened. Just at a wedding.



SL: Do you prefer writing a book as opposed to working a daily news desk?

PF: I loved writing the book! Real life is always more fun/nuts than anything you could actually imagine. As for whether I preferred it...well, I'm not looking to get fired. At Page Six, you rarely get to write more than five paragraphs, much less a full page.

SL: Should celebs who want to stay on your good side buy this book and love it?

PF: Ha! I don't care if celebrities love it - I wrote it for NORMAL people!

SL: What's your most salacious Page Six story of all time that could never be published?


PF: I can't repeat my most salacious story, I'd get sued. But I will say, once I found Nick Nolte passed out on a toilet with his pants down. That was odd.

OUR "MOST BELOVED" AMERICA'S MOST EVIL ANTI-AMERICAN CORPORATISM!
Most Respectfully, This Most Earnest Patriotic Appeal was also submitted to both The Presidents of All of The Universities and to Their Provosts – submitted to both personally!
UNIVERSAL CORPORATISM!!!
This Most-Loving Prayer was also addressed to Pope Benedict XVI – Most Faithfully!
THE WORST CRIME, EVER, AGAINST ALMIGHTY GOD’S HUMANITY – FOREVER?
GLOBAL NUCLEAR PERPLEXITY!
(In True Honor to Dr. Martin Luther King’s Most Patriotic Legacy!)
The Nucleus of Our Whole World Ever-Growing Suicidal Nuclear Crisis was created by no other than The Most Defrauding and Most Greedy Ultra-Conservative and/or by The Ultra-Libertine Politico-Religionism everywhere – Universally! Our Whole World has No True Religion – Anywhere!
The Nucleus of The Most Dominant Ambition of This Universal True Atheism is none other than The Most Voracious Global Inhuman Corporatist Economic Exploitation. All by extreme Global Disregard to The Most Fundamental Human Universal Literacy and The Most Fundamental Universal Good-Samaritan Health Insurance. These Two Together Indeed Constitute Almighty God’s True Universal Democracy’s Vitally Essential Means for True Individual Equal Opportunity to reach ALMIGHTY GOD’S BEST PERSONAL HUMAN GIFTS (RIGHTS). NO-MORE, NO-LESS!!!
All of Our Vast Perpetually Dehumanized – as Illiterate and Sick – Western World, is ever more and more so “CRICIFIED” or threatened with impunity by The Religionist-Instilled Fear of “GOING TO HELL” if they have “NO FAITH”: if disobedient to their Politico-Religionist “Leadership”; that is, “’HEAVEN’ IS LIVING IN SATANIC EXPLOITATION”!
Our Totally Politico-Religionist Western World has always even tried to expand Our Most-Voracious Greedy Corporatism to Our Islamic Eastern World “Friendly” Governments, but I most strongly suspect that Islamic Religionism has an opposite but Equally Religionist Inhuman Self-Defense: when Our Western Corporatist Imposed Inhuman Intervention reach their Eastern Critical Level – as in Our Unending War Perplexity with The Islamic World – Their Islamic Religionist Counteracting “’Inspiration’ ‘To-Go-To-Heaven’” is Their Ultra-Terrorist “Salvific” Individual Self-Immolation.
All of these, for sure, so far, are The Portending Symbolism of A Most Certain Nuclear Armageddon! THERE IS NO WAY FOR NUCLEAR SALVATION!!!
MAY WE TRULY PRAY, SO THAT WE ALL – TRUE SOLID AMERICANS – REALLY ENABLE THE ALMIGHTY TO BLESS (SAVE) OUR MOST BELOVED TRUE AMERICA!!!
Otherwise, any other “CRIME” or “ABORTION” is an “INNOCENT BY-PRODUCT”!!!
