INTERVIEW — STACEY DASH — Hollywood Actress, Fox News contributor and author of NEW BOOK “There Goes My Social Life“
In 2012, actress Stacey Dash posted a tweet that changed her life. Up until that moment, Dash had lived a typical Hollywood life: Best known for playing Dionne in the 1995 teen classic Clueless, Dash had close friends in the upper echelons of the movie and music industries—and she had an Obama bumper sticker on the back of her BMW. But in 2012, sick of being disappointed by the Obama White House and growing more certain of her conservative beliefs, Dash decided to endorse Mitt Romney for president on Twitter. The backlash was swift and brutal.
In There Goes My Social Life, Stacey Dash tells her whole story—how she survived a traumatic childhood, navigated Hollywood, educated herself, and became a conservative. She opens up about her relationships with mentor Bill Cosby, costar Richard Pryor, and friend Russell Simmons. Now a celebrated contributor on Fox News, Dash doesn’t regret outing herself as a conservative. In her lifetime, she has survived neglect, abuse, stalking, and rejection. Today she lives for herself, enjoying her right to think and speak freely—the most powerful and vital right of all.
