Valerie Bertinelli is currently writing a memoir. It’s not that I don’t care what she has to say — she was candid and charming on Rachael Ray recently when I caught her sharing how she was asked to lose weight back in her Barbara Cooper days(!). It’s just that I don’t care enough to pay to read it. So, PopWatchers, let’s give the publishing world a helping hand: What celebrity memoir or autobiography are you dying for and why? Dina Lohan sits at her word processor, awaiting your response.

Nicole Kidman. I’m still dying to know what happened in that marriage.
Carole: I second that one! Nicole is such a talented, classy woman, I bet there was some serious career envy on Tom’s part when she started winning all those prestigous awards. I want to see a memoir from Sir Ian McKellan and from Orlando Bloom. He’s had some interesting things happen with him: breaking his back and being paralyzed; his mother revealing that his father wasn’t his biological father; all the LOTR and Pirates stories too!
Oh god, I’d rather read Paris Hilton’s autobiography unedited for spelling and non-sensical ramblings than read anything written by Dina Lohan. Ugh.
Christopher Lee
Johnny Depp! I love him and I’ve read a lot about his life and I saw him on Inside the Actors Studio, but I just get the feeling that he’d have some interesting things to say.
I think memoirs are self-indulgent.
Kiefer Sutherland.
Carole…good call on the Nic Kidman memoir… I would TOTALLY pay for that.
I am intrigued by Alec Baldwin, but I heard he is writing one.
I think later on, in the future, maybe Lindsay Lohan, just cus I really want to know how Fed up her parents are.
How about jack nicholson, george clooney…the stories about braods alone would be priceless!
I was just thinking Johnny Depp too! Maybe a memoir could give us some insight into Winona Ryder’s “shopping issues.”
i’m looking forward to rosie’s book in september. she writes all about the view. can’t wait!
Nigel Tufnel. I’d love to hear more about his tireless work with the Ferret Foundation.
You say “next great celebrity memoir” as if there have been great ones before.
Nicole Kidman! Agreed! Although she seems like the type who’d never spill the secrets for the sake of the kids. Argh.
Salma Hayek has an interesting story and she’s quite funny so I’d read her book. Also, I’d like the ladies of ABBA to write a juicy tell-all. A Linda Evangalista book about the supermodle heyday could be entertaining as well.
But on the top of my list would be a book by Chrissie Hynde of The Pretenders. She’s a badass who makes no apologies so that would be fascinating.
Clearly there exists one correct answer to this question….Angelina Jolie.
