DOCTOR WHO star JOHN BARROWMAN has reportedly signed a six-figure deal to write his autobiography. The gay screen and stage star, 40, will write his life story for Michael O'Mara publishers. A source says, "The book will be called Anything Goes, after the Cole Porter song and musical of the same name."
Well I read Billie's and it was pretty good....John's should be interesting too.... |

I dunno. People writing autobiographies when they haven't even lived half a life. Appalling!
Wonder when it comes out in Australia? |

Billie Piper's already had three of them (two unofficial). Incredible, isn't it? Not to say, you know, she doesn't deserve it or anything. |

There's not much a person can do about an unofficial biography (anyone heard about the Daniel Radcliffe one yet), it's the conceit of a 22 year old either writing an autobiography, or authorising one.
Unless of course they do a whole lot in 30 odd years and then die. I can think of one very prominent person who did that.
No not him, the music fella. |

Well, if the person's hoping to make some money out of it, the biography/autobiography needs to come out while they are popular.
Plus, they can release further versions later... |

yeahhh the bits about her life were kinda boring....a young kid having a whinge and the ups and downs of stardom.....but her parts about both CE and DT....yeahhh and if she came to Australia then I've got something for her to sign....  I actually jumped to the Who pages in the book first then read the rest when I was bored |
