Hollywood, Interrupted: Insanity Chic in Babylon - The Case Against Celebrity (2004, ISBN 978-0-47-145051-1, John Wiley and Sons) is the title of a book and website authored by Mark Ebner. The writing focuses primarily on what Ebner sees as the disconnected, self-indulgent nature of Hollywood culture and his disdain for the Church of Scientology.
A substantial part of the book is devoted to Crossroads School, a private high school in Santa Monica, California whose students largely come from families involved in the entertainment industry, and various scandals associated with the teenagers who attend that school.
The book, co-authored with Andrew Breitbart, is a New York Times and Los Angeles Times bestseller.
