Celebrity autobiographies are making big money for publishers - and their ghost-writers. As the biggest ever crop of intimate revelations hits the shops, John Preston meets the 'voices' of Wayne Rooney, Robbie Williams, Kerry Katona... and The Beatles
On Saturday, September 16, Peter Andre, one-time singer and now husband of Jordan, will sit down at the Lakeside Shopping Centre in Essex behind huge piles of his newly published autobiography All About Us: My Story. Peter, as his press handout notes, 'is extremely keen on all publicity' and plenty of photographers will be on hand to mark the launch of the book - in which he describes his unhappiness at his wife's alcohol consumption ('it's like she's got the devil inside her'), and his upbringing 'with devout Jehovah's Witness values'.
