I'm betting the book is a ploy to get more out of her in the divorce settlement. Although if it does come out people WILL buy it, and it could make a tidy profit if managed properly (and book publishers are generally pretty good at that- they are NOT handing out money to authors without a REAL good reason, lol).

I think it's a way for him to make money, since he didn't get that much to begin with. There is some of the story that maybe simular to Stella/how he and Terry met, but has a different twist of its own. Maybe more like a E. Lynn Harris book.
And today I will request that the collections manager at my job orders this book, so I can get on the list when it comes out next month (I work at a library).

Seriously. Terrible show. I don't think Whoopi can save it quite frankly. Same issue as Rosie- I never ever ever ever want to hear her talk about sex or mention it in reference to herself. Eww. Yuck. It would be like seeing your parents. Eww. Gross.
She seems to have some sense, but the View is not about common sense, it's abotu annoying bitchiness.

I think The View died when Meredith left for Today and gave Star the boot.
Mel B's trying to make sure Eddie's no deadbeat dad...

Adding Whoppi and Sherry Shepard is really a sign that this show is done. ABC needs to just move foward because this is a dud!

James Brown got more kids...
http://music.yahoo.com/read/news/12176338
I heard that there was at least one more (the one mentoned in the story). They also need to hurry up and test the little boy.

The whole thing is just ridiculous. They say they want privacy but then let everyone know their every move. Get a life. or is he trying to hype up for his next CD?

I was talking to my mother on the phone yesterday and I heard my stepdad mention Usher. I told them that he got married at the lawyer's office. They both said he's crazy. If he don't watch himself, he's going to wind up like Britney (carrer faltering, golddigging ex, walking around acting crazy). I hope he doesn't go to the extreme of hitting SUVs with umbrellas.
