The season to tell it like it is, and there’s no better way to profit from your story than writing a tell-all book.
From the details of Pilar Sanders’ messy divorce to a former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” publicist who reached his breaking point, take a look at 5 titles we can’t wait to dive into in the upcoming months.
1. Pilar Sanders
Deion Sanders’ ex wife is not leaving anything up to the imagination in her new book, Saving Sanders: The Pilar Sanders Untold Story. The tell-all, which is told from the perspective of her longtime friend and publicist Kali Bowye, is all about the nasty details of her divorce.
“While Pilar was living out of the hotel those few months, scraping by day-to-day. Now don’t get me wrong, she was not staying at some dive – quite the opposite. We had been on the phone talking for quite sometime that day when I heard her son call his father and say to him, ‘Daddy, I’m hungry, and mommy has no money for food.’ After a silent pause, Deion replied to his son, ‘You can eat when I see you next week.’”
“The headline making argument – a joke is more like it. What did not make the headlines is how Deion attempted to kill Pilar by picking up a statue in a fit of rage and hitting her over the head. Thank God her childhood best friend Dee was present in the house to witness the entire fight. After Dee jumped in to try to help Pilar, Deion responded by punching her in the face.”
2. Carolyn Moos
The ex-fiancee of now openly gay NBA star Jason Collins is ready share her past relationship with the world.
According to her website, “Carolyn will be writing a book as she reflects on her recent life events about her former fiance. She welcomes submitted questions from the public about what they would like to hear more on given topics that were discuss at the surface level in the interviews. Send your questions to questions@carolynmoos.com and Carolyn will review all of them as she begins to write.”
3. Kim Zolciak’s Ex-Publicist
Apparently the former “Real Housewives of Atlanta” star has made some enemies over the years, and her ex-publicist Jonathan Jaxson is ready to expose it all.
“She was definitely rough around the edges,” he wrote in his self-published book, “Kim and I disagreed on a lot of things, and we often fought like siblings.”
He went on to describe Kim as “a chain smoker who enjoys drinking, spending money, cussing like a sailor and causing drama.”
4. Phil Jackson
Like sports? Former Los Angeles Lakers head coach compared Kobe Bryant to Michael Jordan in his new book Eleven Rings.
Michael Jordan was better at leading his players into games while Kobe Bryant was a win-at-all-costs superstar who could score 81 points by himself if needed,” he wrote. “One of the biggest differences between the two stars from my perspective was Michael’s superior skills as a leader. Though at times he could be hard on his teammates, Michael was masterful at controlling the emotional climate of the team with the power of his presence.”
He went on to say Kobe “had a long way to go before he could make that claim.”
5. Piers Morgan
Are you a news junkie? The “Piers Morgan Live’”host plans to detail his life as a host on CNN in his forthcoming memoir Shooting Straight: Guns, Gays, God, and George Clooney.
According to a press release, the book will cover her ”adrenaline-fueled life at CNN as host of ‘Piers Morgan Live’ including the real time drama of covering huge breaking news stories from the killing of Osama bin Laden to the massacre at Newtown.”
6. Robin Roberts
The “Good Morning America” host is ready to share her experience with MDS with her fans. Roberts recently announced she will publish her memoir in 2014.
“I am humbled that many have an interest, and draw strength from my ongoing journey,” she said. “I’m grateful for the prayers and well wishes of so many people. I’m thrilled that Jamie Raab and Grand Central Publishing will help me tell my story.”
