I’m not sure that I’d be all that interested in learning the nitty gritty details about Angelina Jolie‘s personal life, but it turns out we might soon have the opportunity because word on the street is that she might soon be signing a $50 million deal to write a memoir.
From The Daily Star:
At least three US publishers are locked in a battle for the rights to her autobiography.
A source at one confirmed: “Whoever gets her will be sitting on a gold mine.
“Her book is guaranteed to top the bestseller lists in virtually every country on the planet and even an advance of that size would be recouped within weeks.”
A close pal said: “She has always wanted to do this and believes the time is now right.”
The friend added that since Jolie announced she had undergone a double mastectomy in February “she has never known such peace and fulfilment in her life. There are demons in her past but she is in a place mentally and spiritually where she feels comfortable enough to write about them honestly and put them in context.
“No issues – apart from those that might damage her children’s privacy – will be taboo.”
Hmm, I guess she has had a pretty interesting background, especially in her wild days, so maybe I would read this after all. I actually don’t know that it’ll happen, but it could do quite well. Would you read it?
Please, $50 million for her drivel? What moron would pay that? As far as recouping costs, as long as the movie rights were included, maybe paying that would make sense.
Wow! $50 million dollars is no joke. Props to Angelina for landing this deal. Seems like a deserving person.
I’m with Chuck!
Here let me do this for you! She was a drug addict, then she kissed her brother, had BBT’s blood in a vial around her neck! Stole a man from another woman, had a gazillion kids and is now St. Mother Angelina! There! Now you don’t have to buy the book! :)
That’s awesome.
