Memoirs : William Shatner, Madonna ….
Maybe I never noticed it so much in the past, but it seems like sooooo many celebrities are writing or just published a memoir of their lives lately. A few that I recently spotted were:
William Shatner’s book titled “Up Till Now.”
Madonna’s brother, Christopher Ciccone, wrote “Life With My Sister Madonna,” co-authored by celebrity biographer Wendy Leigh.
I read an article that Larry King (Yes you heard it right, Larry King!) is working on his book titled “What Am I Doing Here?”. Its suppose to cover everything from his childhood in Brooklyn to his multiple marriages. It will be published by Weinstein Books on Father’s Day 2009.
Lil Kim and Foxy Brown both were suppose to be working on their books for Simon & Schuster, but are now being sued by Simon & Schuster intending to get its money back after paying out generous advances for books that the ladies never completed.
Robert Downey Jr. has postponed his plans to write a memoir, returning his advance to publisher HarperCollins. It was never stated why he decided not to at this time.
I guess all these memoirs goes with the quote “Inquirying minds want to know!”
