...shows up at a book signing in a wedding dress! He goes to Rome to make a movie with Jean-Claude Van Damme! All just a regular week or two at the office for the publicity terrier. Over at the Rodman Group (his manager has an 800 number, natch) they're unapologetic. "This is a small representation of things coming his way," says his personal assistant, Tammy Rodriguez. Now, what did Rodman use to do for a living...

Ambati moved from India to the U.S. with his family when he was three and graduated from New York University (magna cum laude, natch) at 13. Unlike TV's Doogie Howser, however, Ambati doesn't look young. "At [medical school] orientation, someone mentioned that the youngest member of the class was 14," he says. "People were asking me, 'Have you seen the 14-year-old?'" After he's finished studying, he plans to practice...
