Paris Hilton Had Thoughts About Her Sex Tape Being Parodied In Pink’s “Stupid Girls” Music Video

It feels unnatural to write that new mom Paris Hilton “had thoughts,” but as we know, she maintains that her dumb bimbo label is just an “archetype!” (stereotype). According to Paris’ recently released and brilliantly titled memoir, Paris: The Memoir, in which she admitted to lying about voting FOR Donald Trump, she shared that she didn’t love the very persona she’s leaned in to for her entire time in the public eye being poked fun at when Pink spoofed her sex tape, One Night in Paris, in her Stupid Girls video. And though the sex tape and then Pink’s video happened almost twenty years ago, and Paris just brought it up again and immortalized it in her book, she says she doesn’t hold a grudge.
Matthew Perry Says That His Opioid Addiction Led To A Ruptured Colon That Almost Killed Him

For his entire tenure in Hollywood, Matthew Perry has mostly been known for two things: being Chandler on Friends and his tempestuous struggles with addiction. But now he says that he’s sober and enough time has passed since he was in active addiction, so he was ready to reflect on the darkness he overcame by writing a memoir. In it, he reveals that his opioid addiction had gotten so dire that what he shared publicly as a gastrointestinal perforation at the time was actually a burst colon due to his excessive use of opioids.
Prince Harry’s Memoir May Get Pushed Back To 2023 Over Concerns About “Truth Bombs”

Last summer Prince Harry revealed he was writing his memoirs and had signed a $20 million deal with Random House. This is the announcement that allegedly shooketh uppeth the royal family. At the time, word was the book was supposed to come out in summer 2022, aka now. Then it was set to be released in late 2022, just in time for holiday shoppers. But Harry’s book still isn’t available online for pre-sales. This week, publishing sources told Page Six that the memoir might get delayed until 2023 because the prince “has some truth bombs in his book that he is debating on whether to include or not.” If recent reports are true, one of those bombs could be the identity of the royal who made racist comments about Harry and Meghan Markle’s baby. Spoiler alert: it’s allegedly Duchess Camilla.
Jennette McCurdy Claims Nickelodeon Offered Her $300,000 In Hush Money

Last year, former child star Jennette McCurdy, best known for her role as Sam Puckett in Nickelodeon’s iCarly and Sam & Cat, announced she was done with acting and would be shifting her focus to writing, directing, and podcasting. Since then, 30-year-old Jennette actually wrote something (um, a real writer would procrastinate for years!); a memoir, entitled I’m Glad My Mom Died. That was also the title of her one-woman show, so, like, Jennette’s definitely glad mom Debra McCurdy died of cancer in 2013.
Ahead of her book’s August 9 release, Jennette did an interview with The New York Times and discussed some of her memoir’s more troubling revelations, including the fact that Nickelodeon allegedly offered her $300,000 in hush money to never talk about her experiences with the network. It doesn’t take the child genius brain of iCarly (was she smart? I never watched) to put two and two together… this has gotta be Dan Scheider-related. Continue reading
Lenny Kravitz’s New Memoir Gets Into His Relationship With Lisa Bonet

Lenny Kravitz has a new memoir out, entitled Let Love Rule. Even if you’re not one for book reading, you should be excited, because this means more excuses to post pics of 56-year-old Lenny! “Thank you, Internet”, replied all our eyes, clits, and peens in unison.
In the book, Lenny gets into his relationship with ex-wife Lisa Bonet,. Apparently, way back in the eighties, Lenny saw a picture of Lisa on the cover of a TV Guide, and told a friend, “I’m gonna marry that girl.” I’m sure that friend was all, “Uh-huh, suuure you are, Leonard.”
Mariah Carey Claims Her Older Sister Tried To Sell Her Off To A Pimp Back In The Day

Being one of the last bastions of true glamour we have left in this ugly world, Mariah Carey makes it easy for us to forget that she’s a regular-ass human being with both regular-ass, and extraordinary-ass, problems. In my mind’s eye, Mariah emerged from a glittery cocoon in the year 1990 with a halo of curls and butterfly wings, belting a siren song punctuated with a high C7 whistle note. It’s a sweet, sweet fantasy that Mariah has helped to cultivate but in her upcoming memoir, The Meaning of Mariah Carey, she delves into some of the harsh realities of her early life. As reported by Hot New Hip Hop, in her book, Mariah writes about how, at 12, her estranged sister, Alison Carey, pumped her full of drugs and tried to sell her out to a pimp. And to think anyone ever begrudged Mariah a marabou feather housecoat or a haughty affectation. She earned that shit, fair and square.
