This
is where I have collected, to the best of my ability, all things Bruce! As one
can see, he has his hands in about every medium of the entertainment industry.
I found things I never knew and was quite fascinated at his output. Unfortunately,
I think I have only scratched the surface. As always, this will be a work in progress.

Hollywood's
favorite funnyman makes his theatrical debut with Bruce
Vilanch: Almost Famous. Written and conceived by Vilanch,
the show takes a peek at Bruce's encounters with the
glamorous, ego-driven, pansexual denizens of Tinsel
town. The
production provides an insider's journey through the
world of movie openings and exclusive parties, cell-phone
gridlock, backstage crises, flak attacks, "big
deals" and agent fallout. "I Love Los Angeles.
If you can't be a star, at least you can be a star witness,"
says Vilanch.Click

Who
do Robin Williams, Billy Crystal, Bette Midler and Whoopi
Goldberg call the funniest man in Hollywood? A guy you've
never heard of until now: Bruce Vilanch.

for every type of award show, comedy show and live performance.

writer of the Academy Awards show.

Hollywood's most glamorous events with a cast of liminaries
including:
Roseanne, Carol Burnett, Sigourney Weaver, Nathan Lane,
Shirley MacLaine, Elizabeth Taylor, Lily Tomlin and
many more. Join Robin, Billy, Bette and Whoopi on a
guided tour of one man's hilarious life.
Bette
Midler says that "for years I never said a word
that Bruce didn't charge me for," while Robin Williams
claims that "this man cracks my ass-with laughter."
Indeed, Emmy Award-winner Bruce Vilanch is probably
the most respected comedy writer in Hollywood.
Millions
of people have laughed for years at his parodies, jokes,
and taunts, unaware of the comic source. The Oscars,

credits in addition to his speeches and routines for
the likes of celebrities Whoopi Goldberg, Lily Tomlin,
Billy Crystal, Rosie O'Donnell, Paul Reiser, Kelsey
Grammer, and David Hyde Pierce.
Now,
in Bruce!, Vilanch has assembled his funniest and most
wicked essays, stories, and gags. With observations
and views on everything from Diana Ross and the Muppets
to show tunes and Star Wars, Bruce! shows how this regular
"Hollywood Square" can be the "perp of
some of the funniest, most famous, or notorious moments
in recent show-biz history" (Time).
