Piper to pen autobiography
Former pop singer and Doctor Who star Billie Piper has signed a six-figure deal to write her autobiography.
Piper who was married to television presenter Chris Evans will release her book in the autumn of this year. The 23 year old had three number one singles and seven top five hits before turning her hand to acting. She recently won Most Popular Actress at the National Television Awards in the UK.
"It may sound ridiculous being just 23 but I've a few good stories I'd like to share," Piper said. "I'm hoping the book will be honest, funny, insightful and, above all, life-affirming."
"This is a chance for me to talk openly about other areas of my life. Things that people won't know. Things that I'm hoping lots of people can relate to and maybe even be inspired by," she said.
Hodder editorial director Nick Davies said: "Billie has done more in her 23 years than most of us will do in a lifetime and she is ready to talk about it with honesty and humour. I have no doubt that we have a bestseller on our hands."
