Aisleyne's Auto Biography - Witness: Surviving Guns, Gangs and Glamour

[MrGaryy]

Mainstream has bought world rights in the misery memoir of former "Big Brother" contestant Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace for a high five-figure sum.

Managing director Bill Campbell acquired Witness: Surviving Guns, Gangs and Glamour from agent Andrew Lownie. In the warts-and-all confessional, Horgan-Wallace will focus on her violent and deprived childhood in gang-dominated south London. She will detail her involvement with the seedy world of glamour modelling as a teen, and explain her decision to take part in the seventh series of Channel 4's "Big Brother" in 2006.

"Of the millions of people who watched Aisleyne on 'Big Brother', very few realised that she had lived quite such an extraordinary life," said Mainstream's Campbell. "She now writes for a couple of women's magazines, has a large fan base and does huge amounts of charity work, and it is the fact that she has forged a successful career from the least promising of starts that got us interested in the book. We have high hopes for it."

The book is due for publication in the autumn next year, when Horgan-*Wallace is expected to conduct an extensive promotional campaign.

BB's Aisleyne to release autobiography

Former Big Brother contestant Aisleyne Horgan-Wallace has signed an autobiography deal.

The model and fashion designer, who finished in third place on the 2006 series, sold the rights to her book to Mainstream Publishing for a "high five-figure sum".

The book, titled Witness: Surviving Guns, Gangs and Glamour, will tell the story of Aisleyne's troubled childhood and teenage years, her early career as a glamour model, and time in the Big Brother house.

"Of the millions of people who watched Aisleyne on Big Brother, very few realised that she had lived quite such an extraordinary life," said Mainstream's managing director Tim Campbell.

"She now writes for a couple of women's magazines, has a large fan base and does huge amounts of charity work, and it is the fact that she has forged a successful career from the least promising of starts that got us interested in the book. We have high hopes for it."

The book will be released in autumn next year.

I apologise Barracute. I've nothing against Nikki for what she may or may not have done in the past. The post alleging that Aisleyne's used to be a hooker (entirely untrue) prompted my innappropriate response. Do you not also agree that it is wrong to call Aisleyne a ***** or a hooker - all in one post?

I thankyou for you apology, but would like to point out neither Ais OR Nikki were hookers, despite what people think, they were both escorts thats true, but i do not believe either provided any sort of "sexual service" -

Defend Ais by all means but it is better to do so by defending Ais rather than attacking Nikki, who wasn't even mentioned by the prev poster.

No harm done.

Escort/hooker......same dif

[boldjohn]

Aisleyne was never an escort- not that there is anything wrong with that.

Actually no they are not the same thing at all, if you know about these sorts of things, its a common mistake that people make.

[violet]

I'd read it cos I think Aisleyne's a genuinely nice person with a good heart. (and those are really rare these days)

[rayheartbliss]

good on her!

No she was just good friends with him.

Just to clear it up btw, a hooker aka *****, streetwalker, is someone who would walk the streets or clubs and offer her or himself to people eventually creating a name in that particular circut so people would then come to her for her services.

An escort aka prostitute, rent girl, is some one who would be signed with an agency or work in a brothel and would have her jobs booked and people could make appointments.

She's written magazine columns and blogs. Yes she can read and write.

[gavinh2008]

I wanna get this, sounds interesting, plus she was my fav housemate

[Chrizzle]

I was on and off with Aisleyne. I think she is very big headed and snobby towards the fact she was found on BB

However, I dont blame her for trying to get money. Good on her in fact. These people ave to get money somehow, and I say go for it.

Who gives a ****** about that tramp!

TBF, she doesn't actually write them, they phone her up and ask her questions, she just answers them by talking.

[boldjohn]

Not long now till 7th May when the book comes out.
