George Wayne

George Wayne (born 1952) is a New York writer who wrote a celebrity Q&A column for Vanity Fair until 2015.[1] He has been called a "celebrity griller"[2] and his work is considered controversial,[3] since he asks blunt and occasionally random and rude questions.[4]

He is the author of a book called Anyone Who's Anyone: The Astonishing Celebrity Interviews, 1987-2017, which features interviews with Ivana Trump, Martha Stewart and Farrah Fawcett.[5] In interview, Wayne says he considers his book a "post-modern treaty on pop culture".[6] He held the celebratory dinner for the book 11 months after its release.[7]

Alongside Andre Leon Talley, he claimed that Vanity Fair treated him unfairly.[8]
