Joel Madden Set To Become An Author

Share




Some may know him as frontman for Good Charlotte, others from his relationship with Nicole Richie, now a whole new group is going to know Joel Madden, as he ventures into the world of books.

Joel confirmed to People on Saturday that he's working on a memoir. "I'm lightly working on one," he said, "but I don't want to put a book out there if it's not actually meaningful. I'm not going to go there unless I can deliver. It would be about my life. It would be about, mostly, the big changes in my life: Kids, relationships, moving to L.A...the big life changes that I've gone through."

Joel does say though that it's not going to be one of those Hollywood tell all books. "If I put a book out, I want it to be something that matters to me," he says. "It has to be real, you can't just put a book out, to put a book out. I want every page to mean something."

Joel and girlfriend Nicole are currently expecting their second child, so I don't know how often Joel will get to write once that baby arrives. Personally, I just want to read about his relationship with Hilary Duff. That thing still makes no sense to me.

Katie Price Has New Novel, Peter Andre Plans Legal Recourse

Share




All kinds of drama is heating up between warring exes Katie Price and Peter Andre. First of all, the oft-scantily clad authoress showed up for the launch of her most recent book, Sapphire, with her "Pete" tattoo conspicuously crossed off on her wrist. Apparently, this is one of the new tattoos she was talking about.

But it's not just her tattoos that Pete is finding hostile. In a recent interview with GMTV, Katie confessed that she had "heard things" about Andre engaging in romantic trysts after their split. She did add, however, "As far as I know I think he was faithful."

In response, Peter is taking legal means to silence his ex-wife. A spokesperson for the pop singer admitted, "The only thing I can say is that Peter is taking legal action." Yes, let's clog up the legal system with more of their nonsense.

Why Are People Buying Lauren Conrad's Book?

Share




Does America really embrace crap that easily? Lauren Conrad's debut novel, L.A. Candy, has topped the New York Times Best Seller list two weeks in a row.

She told People, "If someone said to me five years ago when this all started that I would one day make the New York Times Best Seller list I wouldn't have believed it. I am so honored that it is now a reality. It was such a compliment to be included in something with such established names."

Good news for all of you that purchased her novel which is loosely based on Lauren's own life, this is the first book in a three-book deal.

Anyone up for a book burning ceremony?

Justin Timberlake Wants To Write A Book On Golf

Share




He's a singer, actor, fashion designer, and now maybe even an author. Justin Timberlake sure seems to be the Renaissance man. The New York Observer reports that literary agent David Vigliano has sent some editors a proposal of the idea.

Apparently, JT has been a golf fan since he was a kid and would even play with the *NSYNC roadies. Since then, he competes in charity tournaments, and has his own golf course. Yes, Justin has a golf course. It's even environmentally friendly.

The book is going to be some sort of memoir thing with stories of games he has played and people he has played with. Sounds like a real winner. It could be something interesting for the coffee table. Or for the bedside table.

Justin has indeed been busy double dating and maybe even starring in a new movie musical. Hope you're having a ball Mr. Timberlake!

NewMoon-Book-Cover-06232009.jpg
Sexy. Little, Brown has revealed their cover for the movie tie-in edition of New Moon, which features an exclusive image from the Twilight franchise's second film. I think Robert Pattinson's moon face is actually kind of humorous.

Weigh in people!

Jennifer Love Hewitt Wants To Mend Your Relationship

Share




Ghost Whisperer actress Jennifer Love Hewitt has taken stock of her relationship experience--both the good and the bad--and put pen to paper.

Currently dating
her television co-star Jamie Kennedy, the star dishes in her book The Day I Shot Cupid all sorts of tips she's picked up while dating such Hollywood stars as Carson Daly, John Mayer and her ex-fiance, Ross McCall.

"Hopefully, in addition to having a good laugh, women reading this will learn from some of my hard lessons," the bubbly star told People magazine. I'm only reading this if the book jacket has a gory picture of Cupid with an arrow through his skull. Cause I'm sick like that.

Celebrity Autobiography: Stars Do Our Job For Us

Share




Oh wow, this looks like my kind of event. On the Largo stage in Los Angeles, California, many a famous face took to the stage to read passages from the autobiographical tomes of their fellow celebrities.

The event was aptly titled, Celebrity Autobiography: In Their Own Words and featured Ryan Reynolds, Lorraine Newman, Fred Willard and Jennifer Coolidge, just to name a few, incarnating such self-indulgent celebs at Star Jones, Suzanne Somers, Neil Sedaka and Mr. T.

As if it couldn't be more appealing, all the proceeds go to benefit the Loma Linda University Children's Hospital Foundation. The only thing I worry is that if all this teasing of famous folk catches on, I'll soon be out of a job.

Lauren Conrad Shows Her 'L.A. Candy'

Share




Bookstress Lauren Conrad is celebrating the launch of the first of three books as a result of her deal with Harper Collins.

The reality TV star unveiled her tome, L.A. Candy, at an event sponsored by Sunglass Hut and Vogue Eyewear. The pivotal character is Jane Roberts, whose personality is typified with a charming innocence and trusting nature. She and her outspoken best friend since childhood, Scarlett, move to Los Angeles and quickly find themselves the focus of a reality TV show.

Sound familiar? Well, it should, since the whole thing is based not-so-loosely on Lauren's stint on Laguna Beach and The Hills. I'm wondering how many phrases exist to express "staring off absently into the distance." Guess I'll just have to read the book to find out!

Julia Roberts & Javier Bardem Will 'Eat, Pray, Love'

Share




Lucky duck Julia Roberts has been cast opposite hunky Spanish actor Javier Bardem in the film adaptation of the book Eat, Pray, Love by Oprah Winfrey-endorsed author Elizabeth Gilbert.

In the flick, Roberts will play the role of a depressed divorcee traveling through Italy, Indonesia and India, who stumbles across a love interest in the form of Bardem's character, Felipe.

It's set for release in 2011, so we're hoping this means that we can expect some on-set photos of Mr. Bardem in the not-so-distant future. Oh yeah, and Ms. Roberts too, we guess.
