The original version of red carpet hit stands in 2007, offering readers a closer-than-the-telecast look at hollywood’s biggest stars making their glamorous arrivals at awards shows, movie premieres and exclusive parties. And now, it’s been completely redesigned and updated with new material from photographer Frank Trapper’s treasure trove of celebrity material for an eye-popping total of 500 photographs. In its pages, you’ll find some of our favorite friends like Cher, Ellen and the ladies of Sex and the City.

It’s the perfect thing for guests to leaf through during the commercials at your awards viewing party.
