This is an astonishingly candid insight into the world of Billie Piper.Famous since the age of 15 - first as the face of Smash Hits (British music magazine),then as a pop singer with three No.1 hits in less than three years - Billie Piper has won over the critics and the British public for a second time by re-inventing herself as an actress in BBC productions of Much Ado About Nothing, The Canterbury Tales and,of course,Rose the Doctor's companion,in Doctor Who.And that's just the professional Billie. In this book,for the first time,she talks honestly about her whirwind romance and marriage to Chris Evans,about her battles with anorexia and the dark side of teen fame.Moving,funny and honest,this is a page-turning read by one of the nation's favourite stars.Billie Piper was born in Swindon in 1983.In her first career,starting at age fifteen,she had seven top five hit singles in five years,including three number ones.At eighteen,she married TV presenter Chris Evans in Las Vegas.She was voted Most Popular Actress at the National Television Awards in 2005 and won The Times' Breakthrough Award in 2006.
