Best known as one of the judges on the talent show America’s Got Talent and alongside Simon Cowell as a judge on Britain’s Got Talent, former newspaper editor Piers Morgan now dons yet another hat. As the host of PIERS MORGAN ON, Piers explores the lifestyles of the rich and famous by meeting the movers and shakers in each city, asking pertinent questions, and providing insight on what we might expect from current trends and situations.
Piers visits Dubai in the Persian Gulf, a billionaire’s playground where the richest people congregate, the most spectacular buildings are erected and fantastic ideas become reality; but he wonders if the credit crunch will turn Dubai’s dream into a nightmare? Piers also travels to Monaco, a principality which is not much bigger than London’s Hyde Park but has more billionaires per square mile than anywhere else in the world. Piers manages to get a glimpse into what it is like to live in a world of such extreme wealth and finds out if Monte Carlo has lost its magic. In Los Angeles, Piers hopes to understand America’s renewed fascination with British actors, musicians and TV stars, having made his own successful leap to the U.S. as a judge on America’s Got Talent.
Follow Piers on this insightful travelogue and exposé for a rare insight into the people and places in some of the world’s most glamorous hotspots.
