Product Description
Product Description
Jordan is one of the most notorious celebrities in Britain today. Daily Mirror Editor, Piers Morgan, described her as 'The biggest driver of sales of tabloid newspapers in the country.' A top glamour model since the age of 16, she was an instant hit as a Page 3 girl, was the F1 Jordan team mascot for four years and even spent 3 weeks with Hugh Hefner at the Playboy mansion! Yet behind the glamorous party girl is the real Jordan - Katie Price - single mum and accomplished horsewoman who is more at home in her combat trousers than posing in her G-string. Much has been written about Jordan in the press but here, for the first time, is the real story of Katie in her own words. She reveals the full stories behind her turbulent youth, her traumatic relationship with footballer Dwight Yorke, her heartbreak over a top Formula One driver and her battle to cope with her son's blindness and diabetes, and her own fight against cancer.
About the Author
Jordan was born Katie Price in 1978. She started modelling for a clothing company at the age of 13 and moved up to being a glamour model just three years later. She's rarely been out of the limelight since. Always ready to give her opinion, she is engaging, frank and a great storyteller.

Format:Hardcover
i dont read many books at all but i did make an effort to buy this as i had heard it was good read,i was more than suprised. after reading the first page i was hooked bare in mind im not a book gal at all,(i read this in under a week) i just couldnt put it down every page you are willing to turn. you get a full sight into katies life she talks about things that are very personal to her about her son and her love life, she tells of her trouble of dwight york and her lust for teddy shringham its brilliant. after finishing this book it left me begging for more. although i found the book amazingly intresting i doubt wheter it would be sutable for prude types as she dosnt leave much to the imagination about her sex life and if your not intrested in the whole glamour modeling, sex lifes of the rich and famous i wouldnt bother. but if like my self you cant get enough of the rich and fabulous this is a deffinate for your book shelf. one word to summerise this book would be truthfull. go out and buy it i swear it will be money well spent.

This was the first book of katie's that i read and i really enjoyed it. She is very forward about everything she says and isn't afraid to speak what's on her mind! Thats what i love about it, it's just about her. It's a great read and i would recommend anyone to get it, it would be money well spent! :)

I love reading autobiographies of famous, and infamous, people - as I find it interesting to see how they view themselves as opposed to how others see them. Jordan is a fascinating character and I was looking forward to reading her book. I was impressed with her honesty in relating certain incidents in her life, especially her behaviour after her break up with Dane Bowers - I think many women will have had similar experiences - I know I have! Unfortunatly, Jordan/Katie does not seem to be able to see any relation between her father not being in her life and her insatiable need for love at any cost. It is a fact that some of the most outrageous exibitionists around are people who are incredibly insecure and who have low self esteem. A case in point would be Paula Yates. After reading her autobiography I was amazed at how self obsessed she appeared to be, very similar to Jordan/Katie. It is fairly well known that Paula had quite a few emotional problems, most stemming from her childhood and perhaps Katie should address hers. I feel sad for Katie, as I did for Paula - who I always had a lot of admiration for.
