Download or read book Laid Bare written by Gail Porter and published by Random House. This book was released on 2010-07-06 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Gail Porter burst on to our TV screens in the late 90s presenting The Movie Chart Show, Alive and Kicking and Top of the Pops. Bright, sparky and beautiful she soon attracted an entirely different audience, posing for a number of men's magazines and rapidly becoming the pin-up of the lad-mag generation. FHM, in a now famous stunt, even projected her naked form on to the Houses of Parliament. But beneath her cheery public façade, Gail was struggling with anorexia and bi-polar disorder. After nine years of extreme dieting, she collapsed and through sheer determination forced herself to begin eating properly again. Having been told she would never be able to conceive, her new healthier lifestyle led to a much desired pregnancy by her then husband, Toploader guitarist Dan Hipgrave. But the intense pressures of juggling motherhood with her career, led to crippling post-natal depression and precipitated the breakdown of her marriage. Overwhelmed by single motherhood, one day after dropping her daughter Honey off at nursery, she took an overdose and her world very publicly began to unravel. But Gail's ability to stay afloat as her life crumbled in the public spotlight made her an icon all over again for a new audience of ordinary women who recognised her pain. She refused to hide-away as stress-induced alopecia caused her to loose her hair, famously appearing at a charity event sporting a startling pink Mohican. Her stunning features and her unwillingness to wear a wig to hide her bald head have made her a contemporary icon. But despite all her troubles, Gail remains upbeat and positive. She has become a role model for coming through it all as a good mother and a working woman unbowed. As iconic as Jordan, smart as Billie and as wild as Kerry, Gail Porter has written her autobiography herself - a raw, honest account of her own troubled life and the world of celebrity we now live in.

Download or read book Unlocked written by Simon E. Poole and published by University of Chester. This book was released on 2021-11-12 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Who could have anticipated the vicissitudes of the last year? And while the stark changes in our lives were pulling us together as a society, as we coped with what was unfolding, the quieter, often isolated time that followed allowed many to focus on writing. Lockdowns across the country may have created all kinds of problems for different people, but one of the positives that seems to have been unlocked across our county, and very probably across the country, was our individual creative potential. These pages are just one example of those isolated endeavours coming together into a collective expression of individual experience. This anthology is an incredibly unique publication, not only for how it documents this strange moment in time, but more importantly for how it reminds us of our need to explore, unravel, pose ‘what-ifs’, in order to make sense of the world: and the benefits of writing for our own wellbeing.

Like everyone else, he experiences what it is like to lose the one he thought was the love of his life, not knowing that it was a lesson in life and that it was redirecting him down the correct path. Anna is new to Charlottesville. She recently moved there from England with her father. With no friends or really any idea which direction her school is in, she and Isaac bump into each other, and just like that, they become friends, almost like they have known each their whole lives. And as time goes on, they become closer and closer, and along the way, they make new and interesting friends. Unfortunately, not everything is perfect in life. Horrible things happen. You can make enemies even if you are the nicest person, as many people out there just love conflict. Will Isaac and Anna live a beautiful life the way that they both dreamed of, along with new friends? Or will this dream of a beautiful life end up a nightmare, resulting in broken hearts?

Book excerpt: Burning ambition, brutal setbacks, meteoric rises, and unbelievable coincidences. Teetering on the edge of the abyss, risking everything, and reaching multi-national stardom.
