If you've read Looking for Gatsby, you know that Faye's side of the Sunset Boulevard debacle with Andrew Lloyd Webber goes unmentioned. There's a legal statement reprinted in the book, and just some subtle mentions of how much stress she was under during that time.
But I've read multiple reports that an early version of her manuscript included an entire chapter where she spills the beans on Sunset Boulevard but apparently the lawyers decided it could not be included. Did that missing chapter from the manuscript ever leak online by any chance? Obviously, I'd love to read that.
This is an excerpt from a July 1995 NY Daily News article about her autobiography that seems to have access to the original manuscript. This is the very brief summary (part of a series of bullet points) of what they say Faye writes in the Sunset Boulevard section:
Andrew Lloyd Webber is "very fey" with a "bare bump of a chin that almost disappears into his neck." Despite their settlement, she still says he lied about closing L.A.'s "Sunset Boulevard" because her voice wasn't good enough.
