Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware -Ray Cokes is undeniably a legend to most Europeans over the age of 30. Initially starting out in life as a fully trained chef, he took on various jobs, before gaining experience as a radio and TV host. In the mid 1980s, Ray joined the famous music channel MTV and later started his pioneering TV show MTV's Most Wanted - which made him a huge star across Europe, at times drawing more than 60 million viewers. Cokes delivered a form of talk/entertainment/music show that was completely unheard of at the time; an unscripted unrehearsed television experience that has since been widely copied.Now, with his trademark candour and cheekiness, Ray presents, in his own words, a comprehensive picture of his adventurous career lived off the beaten track. From his beginnings as a chef in a rundown hotel in Brighton and first tentative steps as a TV host in Belgium, to his rise to superstardom as the face of MTV Europe. In this revealing work, he also provides insight into his personal life and the time after MTV, detailing a severe depression and serious addiction during the excesses of the 1990s.Naturally, there are stories about his meetings with the big stars, including a special wedding present from The Cure, and his short time as a close friend of Robbie Williams. He talks about the uncompromising rules of the media industry and, for the first time, reveals the truth behind the fateful evening in Hamburg, which brought his career as an MTV VJ to an end. MY MOST WANTED LIFE is Ray Cokes au naturel - open and honest, and just as funny and entertaining as his unforgettable TV shows. Tune in and discover the man behind the grin.

Gebunden. Condition: Neu. Neu -Ray Cokes ist eine Legende, jedenfalls für die meisten Europäer über vierzig. Eigentlich als Koch ausgebildet, kam er über diverse Jobs zum Radio und Fernsehen, wo er erste Erfahrungen sammelte. Mitte der Achtziger kam er zum Musiksender MTV und moderierte dort seine wegweisende Sendung MTV's Most Wanted - die ihn europaweit zum Star machte und zeitweise um die 60 Millionen Zuschauer hatte. Ray Cokes lieferte eine bis dahin gänzlich unbekannte Form von Talk-, Entertainment- und Musikshow, meist moderiert aus dem Stegreif und ohne Konzept - ein Sendeformat, das seitdem oft und erfolgreich kopiert wurde. Gewohnt offen und frech beleuchtet Ray Cokes nun in seiner Biografie alle wichtigen Stationen seiner abenteuerlichen, außergewöhnlichen Karriere: von seinen Anfängen als Koch in einem miesen Hotel in Brighton, seinen ersten Gehversuchen als Moderator in Belgien und seinem Aufstieg als bekanntestes Gesicht von MTV Europe. Er gewährt auch Einblicke in sein Privatleben und schildert die Zeit nach MTV, als er mit Drogenproblemen, ausgelöst durch die Exzesse im Showgeschäft in den Neunzigern, sowie heftigen Depressionen zu kämpfen hatte. Natürlich berichtet Ray Cokes auch ausgiebig über die Begegnungen mit den großen Stars, wie etwa besondere Hochzeitsgeschenke von The Cure oder die kurze, aber enge Freundschaft mit Robbie Williams. Er spricht über die knallharten Spielregeln der Fernsehbranche und verrät erstmals pikante Details über jenen schicksalhaften Abend in Hamburg, der seine Karriere als MTV-Moderator beendete. »My Most Wanted Life« ist Ray Cokes pur - offen und ehrlich sowie rasant und unterhaltsam wie seine legendären Fernsehshows. Schalten Sie ein und lernen Sie den Mann hinter den lustigen Grimassen kennen! (Text engl.) 376 pp. Englisch. Seller Inventory # 1604376
