Britney Spears
This one is for sure at the top of the list. It’s the memoir we ALL waited so long to read — an explosive look inside Britney Spears‘ dramatic life, chronicling her rise to fame, romance with Justin Timberlake, and, of course, her controversial conservatorship woes. Whatever you think you know about her life, there’s a lot more to the story, so don’t hesitate to read The Woman In Me!
Kevin Federline
Speaking of Britney Spears, her ex-husband and baby daddy Kevin Federline followed-up her memoir with his own (very controversial) version of the story this year called You Thought You Knew. Britney and her reps have been widely outspoken against the book, as has her loyal fanbase, as evidenced by his poor sales. But hey, based on what we covered, it seems pretty juicy — whether or not it can all be believed…
Prince Harry
It’s the book that cemented Prince Harry‘s feud against his entire family, of course it was juicy AF!! Spare tackles everything from the royal’s upbringing, to the heartbreaking loss of his mother, and most shocking, to all the jaw-dropping deets that led to him and Meghan Markle walking away from The Firm! Racism allegations, fights with Prince William, and SO much more!
Paris Hilton
Paris Hilton‘s self-titled autobiography Paris was an instant best-seller, and for good reason. Yes, she took a trip down memory lane reliving her most iconic pop culture moments — and there are many, she was the It Girl after all! — but she also got incredibly honest about childhood trauma. There are some pretty grim stories revealed in the pages of this book, but it’s also described as “shocking, funny, and surprisingly profound.”
HOLLY MADISON
In Holly Madison‘s memoir Down the Rabbit Hole: Curious Adventures and Cautionary Tales of a Former Playboy Bunny, Hugh Hefner‘s former Number 1 girlfriend turned Disneyland Queen and all around Lady of Intrigue gave readers a front row seat inside the notorious Playboy mansion and everything that went down between her and the late naughty magazine mogul.
Matthew Perry
Matthew Perry held nothing back when writing his memoir Friends, Lovers, and the Big Terrible Thing. From his beef with Keanu Reeves to detailing scary experiences amid his drug addiction, Matthew really went there on every subject matter. He even spilled the tea about his love life, like why he dumped Julia Roberts! The Friends star lived a big and wild life before it was cut too short. Now that he’s passed away, this memoir will surely bring you all the raw emotions.
Bethany Joy Lenz
Dive deep into the nostalgic world of One Tree Hill — with a CRAZY cult twist in Dinner For Vampires! Bethany Joy Lenz gets incredibly candid about what it was like rising to fame while in a cult — and how she found the courage to break free. It’s a powerful read!
Jennette McCurdy
Rather than the traditional celeb memoir digging up dirt from past romances and BTS stories, Jennette McCurdy took a very different route with her book, I’m Glad My Mom Died. The deeply personal and revealing memoir chronicles her child star career as well as her relationship with her abusive mother. Definitely look up the trigger warnings before diving in as this is not an easy, breezy read and covers many tough subject matters. But there’s a reason it’s being turned into an AppleTV+ series with Jennifer Aniston. Read it before you watch it!
Kerry Washington
Another surprising memoir! After learning that her dad is not her biological father, Kerry Washington pulled back the curtain on her usually very private personal life in her book, Thicker Than Water, uncovering never-before-shared details of her childhood, love life, and more.
Perez Hilton
Bonus! Obviously can’t forget Perez Hilton‘s very own TMI: My Life in Scandal! If you love what you see here, we know you’ll love this one! Wink wink!
And this is just the tip of the iceberg when it comes to juicy celeb books! What’s on YOUR list, Perezcious readers? Share your recs in the comments (below)! Happy reading!
