Bonnie Fuller is the president and editor-in-chief of HollywoodLife.com and the former editor-in-chief of Us Weekly, Flare, YM, Marie Claire, Cosmopolitan, and Glamour. She has been credited with inventing the modern celebrity newsweekly and was twice named Editor of the Year by Advertising Age. At Us Weekly, she reformulated and redesigned the title, increasing newsstand sales by over 200%. She created such signature sections as “Stars Are Just Like Us,” “The Buzzometer,” and “Who Wore It Best.” The influence of such sections was so strong that iterations can now be found in most celebrity and digital news outlets. Her book, The Joys of Much Too Much: Go for the Big Life—the Great Career, the Perfect Guy and Everything Else You’ve Ever Wanted, was published in 2006.
