[colorstoobright]

she's so queen for that book title

[sandstorm]

I know it's probably heavily edited and ghost written, but I was quite impressed with the writing on the excerpt. She has a good written voice.

He also said their grandmother was very upset by the title.

lol well

I don’t think it’s ghost written, she started working on this in the form of a one woman show she performed for a few months pre-pandemic and then it turned into a memoir.

I don't read a lot of celebrity memoirs (the last memoir I read was Mariah's) but I'm very intrigued by this one

[champagnexdream]

I am still working through Mariah’s like 2 years later. It hasn’t grabbed me like I hoped. Jessica Simpson’s was amazing

Why exactly is Tom Hanks playing charades with nickelodeon age actresses?

[miniglik]

Maybe with Colin and his dad?

Edit: Nevermind. The passage of time is weird. colin hanks is 45, so it would have to be, like, Chet (ew) who is close in age to Ariana Grande.
