FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE





JUSTINE BATEMAN: THE E! TRUE HOLLYWOOD STORY

PREMIERES ON SUNDAY, MAY 25 AT 9:00 PM ET/PT


Justine Bateman, "I Felt Like In My Real Life I Had To Play A Role. And That's All From Fear. From Fear of Just Behaving The Way I Wanted to Behave.”



Los Angeles, May 21, 2003 –- Starring on the hit TV sitcom, Family Ties, at the tender age of sixteen Justine Bateman turned into America's sweetheart almost overnight. The actress learned quickly, however, that fame was no laughing matter. Bateman found the sudden onslaught of fanfare awkward and even painful. Struggling to find her own identity, Bateman became know off screen for her party girl image. The pressures kept mounting for the star, including a decade-long battle with bulimia, a tumultuous love life that linked her with such actors as Scott McGinnis and Leif Garrett, and a stalker who expressed his love for her with a loaded gun in a theater. This one-hour program reveals how Bateman overcame her early struggle with success. Today, a fashion designer, wife and mother, Bateman still finds time to act in the new Showtime series Out of Order. Will this designing woman finally outgrow her role as flighty teenager Mallory Keaton from Family Ties? Tune in to Justine Bateman: The E! True Hollywood Story premieres Sunday, May 25 at 9:00 PM ET/PT.

The Emmy®-nominated E! True Hollywood Story is a series of one- and two-hour docu-dramas chronicling the lives of some of entertainment’s most celebrated people, places and events. Utilizing E!’s unparalleled access to the entertainment industry, the program provides a true insider’s view of Hollywood, putting the star-making machine under a microscope with each new installment. The E! True Hollywood Story began life as a series of specials with the March 30, 1996 premiere of Dark Obsession: The Stalking and Murder of Rebecca Schaeffer and quickly established itself as the network’s most successful programming franchise.

Justine Bateman is still a very beautiful woman and I amazed that she has had eating disorders. I am also shocked to her that she had a terrible experience with manic with a gun. Indeed, I always wondered whatever had to Bateman. Besides Family Ties I saw her in that Film with Julia Roberts called Satisfaction. I also saw in a tv movie about a brother and sister who shoot their abusive father. Does any remember the name of the movie? She also played a blind girl trying to make it on her own. She really was an actress of the 1980s, and hopefully she will star new projects such as that new series on Showtime.
