‘Sex-obsessed’ mogul Sumner Redstone asked grandson to set him up: book
February 15, 2023
A new book about the power struggle to control the Paramount media conglomerate reveals a host of shocking details about sex-obsessed mogul Sumner Redstone and his dogged pursuit of women.
The book — “Unscripted: The Epic Battle for a Media Empire,” by New York Times reporters James B. Stewart and Rachel Abrams — reveals how the late horny billionaire even hit up his own grandson to introduce him to women and showered his female companions with millions in money, stock options and offers of work in his empire.
It describes how Redstone’s two girlfriends, Manuela Herzer and Sydney Holland, reportedly moved into the increasingly infirm mogul’s Beverly Park mansion and took over his life and health care decisions. The book alleges the women changed his will to benefit themselves, blocked family access to him, “and threatened to abandon him, leaving him to die alone if he denied their requests.”
The authors describe how the two allegedly siphoned off more than $150 million from Redstone’s bank accounts and stock holdings — and could have gained control of his empire, had they not had a bitter falling out and his daughter Shari Redstone successfully fought back.
The book, out Wednesday from Penguin Random House, also claims Redstone called President Barack Obama the N-word and that he hated President Donald Trump so much, his computer had a button to say “F–k you” whenever anyone mentioned the former chief executive.
In 1987, Redstone, a former Army officer, became one of the country’s most powerful media moguls in a $3.4 billion hostile takeover of Viacom, the parent of the cable networks MTV and Nickelodeon. He controlled Viacom and CBS almost until his death in 2020 at age 97.
One of his most unusual courtships was with 26-year-old Malia Andelin, who was working as a CBS private plane flight attendant in 2008 whenRedstone allegedly asked her, “I hear women like to be spanked … Do you like to be spanked?”
According to the book, he later lunged at her in his limo and tried to get his hand under her blouse, according to the book, and also left her a bizarre “Mission: Impossible”-themed voicemail saying, “Some say I created ‘Mission: Impossible,’ and some say that this mission is impossible … But I made this mission possible.”
Redstone told her she didn’t need to work on the CBS private jet and instead could accompany him to dinners plus Hollywood premieres, galas and benefits, giving her millions of dollars to do so.
Following the 2009 MTV awards, where
Redstone openly flirted with his grandson’s girlfriend in front of Viacom execs, Korff, then 25, enlisted Bravo’s “Millionaire Matchmaker” Patti Stanger to find a suitable romantic match for the mogul. “I can’t deal with him,” Brandon is said to have confided in Stanger, who was paid $120,000 for a year for the pleasure of setting Redstone up.
Stanger even told The Post in 2016, when Redstone was 93, “He [Sumner] flirts with everyone and loves busty, blue-eyed brunettes. I was the look.”
Holland allegedly racked up more than $2 million on Redstone’s credit cards in 2014, including a $58,461 charge at Saks Fifth Avenue, according to court papers. That same year, Herzer’s charges totaled $1.5 million, including $128,780 at Barneys and $82,624 at Hermes, the court records said.
Holland and Herzer filed their own suits also, accusing Shari of conspiring with her father’s nurses to spy on them and turn her father against them. Holland claimed in her lawsuit that Shari bribed Sumner’s nurses to secretly record “intimate” discussions about his sex life, which Shari denied.
Holland settled her case with Redstone in June 2018. Herzer battled on, and in 2019 finally agreed to pay the Redstone family $3.25 million to reimburse them for some of the gifts that she had received. The court dismissed the case following settlement.

California woman accidentally runs over, kills would-be catalytic converter thief: cops
February 15, 2023
A California woman accidentally ran over and killed a man police said had been trying to steal her catalytic converter Tuesday.
The unidentified woman was sleeping inside her Ford Excursion in the parking lot of a Palmdale shopping center when a group of four alleged thieves pulled up around 6 p.m., the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department said.
Two Hispanic men and two Hispanic women parked in the stall next to their sleeping victim. One man hopped out of the car, laid underneath the woman’s SUV and began sawing off the catalytic converter, deputies said.
“The victim woke up from the sound, turned the car on, put the vehicle in reverse, and felt a bump like she ran something over,” the department said in a release.
The woman stopped immediately and called 911, leaving the ran-over suspect lying beneath her car.
Sheriffs arrived to find the Ford partially backed out of the parking stalls with the man still underneath and the alleged thieves’ car parked next to it.
The man was rushed to a nearby hospital, where he was pronounced dead. Police later identified him as a grand theft suspect.
The three others from his group were detained.
Police have not released the identities of those involved, or said whether the theft victim would face any charges. The case was classified as a homicide.
Catalytic converters are a hot commodity for auto thieves.
Last week, jackers swiped the iconic Oscar Mayer Wienermobile’s catalytic converterwhile it was parked at the Sonesta Suites on Paradise Road in Las Vegas.
In New York City, such thefts rose as much as 600% across the five boroughs last year, The Post reported.
