Bright Side With Tekneshia

Danné Montague-King has lived a life that has all the elements of a feature film. A celebrity hairdresser in Newport Beach in the 1960’s Danné shopped with Jane Russell,   and styled wigs for Diana Ross. He was living a charmed life, when one day Maybelline heiress, Evelyn F. Williams walked into his shop and set him firmly on a journey that shaped the rest of his life. Danné was living as Evelyn's companion and confidante when she mysteriously died in a fire, and unjust rumors about Danné were rampant along with stories of orgies, twisted sex, drugs and Mafia connections. The Maybelline Prince (Bettie Youngs Books, 2014) is Danné’s riveting account of  the life and death of Evelyn Williams and proves that not only is truth stranger than fiction but it's more intriguing as well.  The Maybelline Prince is a story culled from the headlines but is also a story of grit and determination and a will to succeed against all odds. The book reads like a novel, but has the heart of a memoir depicting a life well lived
