1. Kanye West
In 2009 when he was promoting his book Thank You And You're Welcome, Kanye said, "Sometimes people write novels and they just be so wordy and so self-absorbed. I am not a fan of books. I would never want a book's autograph. I am a proud non-reader of books. I like to get information from doing stuff like actually talking to people and living real life."



2. Victoria Beckham
Victoria says she ain't got time for that. "I haven't read a book in my life. I don't have the time. I prefer listening to music, although I do love fashion magazines."



3. Courtney Stodden
Stodden set the record straight on whether or not she's writing a book with this: "I don't have a book coming out. That's a rumor. I don't read or write."



4. Meghan Trainor
In an interview Meghan said, "I don't read books. I read On the Road in high school, and that was awesome, so I guess that's my favorite book. To Kill a Mockingbird, even though I didn't read it, that's the greatest story. SparkNotes came in when I was in high school, and that was the greatest invention. Reading is too soothing for me: No matter what time of day, if I'm reading a book, I'm going to fall asleep. I wish I read books because they help with talking. I want to say something in a cool way, and I can't think that fast, especially in interviews. And if I get nervous, I stutter. If I read this and it sounds stupid, I'm going to be pissed."



5. Tomi Lahren
You might be surprised to learn that Republican troll Tomi Lahren isn't big into reading books. "I’m going to be honest with you, I’m not a reader. I don’t like to read long books. I like to read news. So I couldn’t tell you that there was a book that I read that changed my life."
