Lively as ever at 83, Debbie Reynolds will soon release another memoir called Make ’em Laugh, in which she tells all about Hollywood’s biggest playboys of her day.

According to early reviews, Ms Reynolds says Bob Hope was a notorious womaniser, along with Lucille Ball’s husband, Desi Arnaz.

Her new book will be released in November.
