Jodie Sweetin is finally coming clean — about not really coming clean. Despite her claims that she had kicked her drug habit, the ‘Full House’ star admits she’s was just lying to everyone.
In her new tell-all book ‘unSweetined,’ Sweetin says she relapsed but kept booking gigs to make quick money to pay for her drug addiction.
“I was back to partying like I was at my worst, spending seven hundred dollars a week on meth [and] coke.” she wrote. She even reveals downing a bag of coke right before one of her interviews.
In an excerpts (via Huffington Post), Sweetin writes that during her sobriety college tour at Marquette University in Milwaukee, Wisconsin,
“I thought for sure that one of the professors would take one look at me and kick me out. But none did. They wanted to hear about the trials and tribulations of Jodie Sweetin, or at least the Jodie Sweetin I had created by appearing on Good Morning America and talking to People magazine.
The relapse started one day, just a few months after my GMA spot, when I got a random phone call from a friend who I used with and who occasionally sold me drugs. I invited her to my place. I was in an apartment at the time. I knew it was a really bad idea to invite her over but I wanted to test myself, I guess. We hung out, played cards. I told her I hadn’t done meth in a while. One thing led to another and just like that, I was back.”
“I was living a complete lie. But unfortunately, guilt doesn’t make you stop. I talked about growing up on television and about how great my life was now that I was sober… The little bit of coke that I had done before the speech wasn’t enough to make me forget how bad I felt for doing what I was doing. The guilt was eating away at me. I was struggling to keep it together, but no one realized that. I finished. They applauded. Standing ovation. Just how I liked it. And it was over.”
Sweetin admits she returned to her room tired but made time for one more hit. “I was just so tired. Tired of lying. Tired of pretending to be someone that I wasn’t. I took a deep breath and walked out of the lecture hall. I went back to my hotel room and buried my face in my hands. I couldn’t keep doing this. It had to end.But not today. I wiped away the tears and finished the baggie of coke.”
Sweetin’s book will be released on November 3. See more former child stars on Inside TV.
Kendra Wilkinson has let the world see her boobs and funny moments in both of her reality shows, but she is now taking a step further in her career by writing a book.
The memoir which is set for release next summer will supposedly include everything from her life – childhood, getting famous and of course living in the Playboy mansion with Hugh Hefner.
I wonder if the book will dish on the alleged feuds that she had with Holly Madison and Bridget Marquardt back when they were all Hugh Hefner’s girlfriends.
Kendra said “I feel like the luckiest girl in the world, I have a husband I adore, a baby on the way, and now my memoir is going to be published!”
The book will be released through Simon Spotlight Entertainment and is described as a “humorous, relatable, fish-out-of-water tale.”
Vice President of the publishing company, Jennifer Bergstrom, said “Kendra is so genuine and funny that her memoir is sure to be unique.”

Edwards has remained pretty silent and out of the spotlight since he confirmed his affair with Rielle last year, but it seems Andrew isn’t so eager to remain silent as he is releasing a tell all book.
Andrew has reportedly signed a book deal with St.Martin’s Press, in this book he not only confirms that there is a sex tape but also says Edward’s is indeed the father of Rielle’s daughter (Edwards has denied this).
Andrew said he found the sex tape while unpacking at his home in California, he and his wife let Rielle stay in their home for eight months for an undisclosed amount of money.
Rielle apparently confided in Andrew during a talk they had, she said Edwards had discussed getting married with her if his wife Elizabeth died of the cancer she suffered from. They even discussed what muse they would be playing at the wedding.
Andrew’s character has been questioned in the past though, Elizabeth Edwards has said she partly blames Andrew for the affair since he knew about it and would help them talk on his cell phone, she also accuses him of stealing her late sons baseball card collection.
No word on when Andrew Young’s book will be released, but an editor has said the book’s proposal “was impossible to put down.”
Do we really need to see a sex tape between John Edwards and Rielle Hunter?
It’s coming….the mother of knocked up at 16 Jamie Lynn Spears and ham sandwich crazy Britney Spears has her book.
“Through the Storm” is a guide on her experience in the tabloid rodeo of the Spears drama. It will hit bookstores on August 16th. I know every new parent is eager to get their hands on the info from the ultimate pimp, Lynn Spears.
Lynne was just an ordinary Southern mom when the overnight success of her daughter Britney shoved the Spears family into the blinding limelight glare.
Through the Storm takes readers beyond the reach of the paparazzi and outside the narrow orbit of the Hollywood glitterati to share the inside story of the Spears family-as only a mother can tell it.
In this openhearted memoir, Lynne speaks about Britney, Jamie Lynn, Bryan, ex-husband Jamie, herself, and their lives together from Louisiana to Los Angeles, including:
* Lynne’s backseat role in Britney’s path to fame and how it forever changed their family
* Her regret in abdicating parental authority to managers, agents, and record companies
* The challenges that shaped Lynne and Jamie’s marriage and how that affected Bryan, Britney, and Jamie Lynn
* Her response to Jamie Lynn’s pregnancy
* The startling events that led to Britney’s meltdown and Lynne’s showdown with manager Sam Lufti
* How faith, family, and friendships have been her harbor in the storm of paparazzi, tabloid scribblers, and gossip hounds
Sincere, self-effacing, sometimes spunky, Lynne’s memoir reveals the heart of a mother who has struggled through difficult times and how she has held onto her faith and her sense of humor as she tries to hold onto her family.
Reportedly, Brit-Brit is super pissed her mother is continuing to suck at the teat of her empire. The memoir was originally set to come out over Mother’s Day of this year, but after Jamie got knocked up it put a hold on things. The title was also rumored to be ‘Pop Culture Mom: A Real Story of Fame and Family in a Tabloid World.’
Personally I don’t understand this. It is about as smart as taking a laxative and sleeping pills at the same time. Or like taking makeup tips from Amy Winehouse. Eh, you get my drift. Plus the cover photo looks like a senior picture, delightfully tacky and over posed.

Girls Aloud beauty Nadine Coyle is to lift the lid on her split with love-cheat boyfriend Jesse Metcalfe in an explosive book.
Nadine, Cheryl Cole, Nicola Roberts, Kimberly Walsh and Sarah Harding have all contributed to the biography, which details their unstoppable rise from pop wannabes.
And pals say straight-talking Nadine (23) may use it to get revenge on Jesse for breaking her heart.
The pair met in February 2006, but split briefly last November due to the pressures of a long-distance relationship. They got back together, but then broke up when Desperate Housewives star Jesse was spotted with a mystery woman in LA.

Miley Cyrus is like a machine that out-fames the Olsen twins when they were less about the anorexia and more about straight to video movies.
After the above Miley Cyrus near boob flash at the CMT awards I fear that she is on the same path as the twins. She is currently a millionaire raking in over $18 million last year. Cyrus is planning on outdoing that number with a tell all book that Disney is behind. Her autobiography will have a multi-million dollar paycheck. Even better. She won’t be the one writing it. Disney is in search of a ghostwriter to comprise an account of the tween mogul’s life.
This help her to buy her way into heaven. Miley forks over $1,000 each week to Montrose Church in California. Sometimes when she is feeling extra high on some Jesus, she gives even more. Maybe this will help guide her on the path of Hannah Montana. She is currently considering ditching her alter ego after the Hannah Montana movie release in May 2009.
I would like to send her a pamphlet on a new religious movement. It is called the Worship House of Cara. Any donations are welcome and guarantee admittance to the Saturday night communion. (Beer bong required. Also chimichangas will replace the tiny bits of stale bread.)

Dayanara Torres plans to spill the beans on her short and tumultuous marriage to Marc Anthony, reports The Post’s Sandra Guzman.
The former Miss Universe is writing “Married to Me: How Committing to Myself Led to Triumph After Divorce,” which will chronicle how she got over her painful union with the Skeletor – who left her for Jennifer Lopez – to find true happiness.
But let’s hope Torres has good lawyers. When Ojani Noa, J.Lo’s first hubby, tried doing the same, he was shut down in court by Lopez’s lawyers. Torres’ tome will be published by Penguin Book’s new Latin author line, Celebra.
I’m truly surprised that she hasn’t done this sooner. I’m fairly certain that Marc Anthony is a snake.
Peter Doherty is going to go public with the intimate details of his relationship with Kate Moss. In an agreed interview with a British program, Crazy Pete will to talk about his relationship with supermodel Moss. No subject will be off limits thanks to producers lure of cash. Money (in this case literally) talks. Especially when you have a habit to feed.
Details of coke binges and party antics will be brought to light. Film he and Kate shot from their personal recordings will also be in the feature documentary. What exactly is on that film is left up to the imagination at this point. However, rumors of the contents of their camcorder is already causing a whisper of a legal battle of the ownership of the tapes.
A source close to Pete and Kate says that Kate will be furious if he hands over their personal filmed adventures. The source also mentioned that some of the contents are “really raunchy.” Doherty will be paid over $100, 000 for the footage and the open interview.
I don’t see what Kate really has to be worried about. Short of sacrificing a goat, it would take a lot to surprise me when it comes to Moss’ “raunchy” behavior.

Charlize Theron is considering a career in politics after taking an interest in the U.S presidential elections. Hey… it couldn’t be any worse, eh?
Contact Music reports, She credits her South African upbringing to her interest in politics, which taught her not to be scared to question authority. She says,
“I’m very politically aware. I don’t think I can be one of those people that can walk around with blinders on. I question authority, question what the government is doing, and I think that is an incredibly patriotic thing to do. I think if I didn’t care I wouldn’t ask any questions.
I love America and love living in this country. And I think, maybe coming from a country like South Africa, and being used to political turmoil, that’s just the way I grew up. I think it’s important to see and hear what everybody’s agendas are.”

Star Magazine illustrated its cover story, about “Jen’s $5 Million Tell-All!“, with a shot of Jennifer Aniston carrying what is lead to believe, the manuscript she’s allegedly shopping around to publishers about her life and times with Brad Pitt.
HOWEVER, they didn’t plan on the original photograph being found. Star simply airbrushed out the cover of an auction catalog, along with a pair of sunglasses she was holding.
Remember now, Star is the same company that brought you Andy Roddick’s digitally enhanced arms.

Dumas has hired a literary agent and is sending out a book proposal, which includes a copy of an unsigned nondisclosure agreement that she claims Madonna issued to her only after she had already resigned as her nanny.
The book will reveal intimate details of Madonna’s marriage to Guy Ritchie, their children’s behavior, the family’s participation in Kabbalah, and the motivation behind Madonna’s decision to adopt a boy from Malawi.
The proposal also contains personal photos of Madonna’s family, as well as photos of the nanny playing with Madonna’s kids.
Actress Jessica Alba, wearing a wig, poses for a portrait while on set filming a segment for the upcoming 2006 MTV Video Music Awards in Santa Clarita, California on Saturday. Alba says she hopes to show fans a different side of herself when she hosts the MTV awards, which will be handed out June 3 and air June 8.
Well, I wonder what “other” side of her she’s going to show us? Could it be the boring old button shopper she was several months back? Or maybe she’s finally going to come out of the closet and tell all of us she has been a hot steamy lesbian all along. Maxim magazine fans, you’ve all been fooled! Morons!
Anyhow, doesn’t her hair in these pictures look awfully similar to Jessica Simpson’s hair? I’m guessing it could be a segment ripping on Simpson. We’ll have to wait and see.
