Synopsis
W**kers! Cheese! Eeezamanna! Pete Bennett, the 24-year-old Tourette's sufferer who shot to fame as winner of Big Brother 7, stole the nation's heart with his outrageous, loveable nature. Pete's incredible autobiography reveals what the tabloids didn't see. His story will make you cry, have you in stitches, and inspire you with its amazing honesty. Suffering with Tourette's Syndrome since the age of five, Pete was only properly diagnosed at 14. Here he talks openly about his agony growing up with Tourette's, and how he used humour and his musical ability to cope with his frightening attacks. Pete reveals his true feelings about his dad abandoning him when he was six, and his close relationship with his mother, Anne. Pete shares intimate details about his escape into wild sex parties, the horrific death of his best friend, and his thoughts of suicide until Big Brother 'saved his life'. From the moment Pete decided to enter Big Brother so his mum wouldn't have to work in a fast food chain, he had the entire nation glued to their TV screens. But beneath his quirky and hilarious antics, it was Pete's refreshing innocence and lack of fame-seeking that made him the most popular (and fancied) housemate Big Brother has ever seen. In his own unique style, Pete tells us what he really thought about life in the BB house, how it felt to be a secret heartthrob and confidante to all the girls who vied for his affections, including Aisleyne, Lea, Lisa. Find out what has happened since Pete left the house, from his romance with Nikki, Queen of Tantrums, to his huge new record deal with his band, Daddy Fantastic. Heart-rending and moving, hilarious and outrageous, Pete's story is an unique insight into a truly inspiring individual.

Oh wonderful

[Chrizzle]

Would've bought it last week.
Not anymore

EDIT: Ive realsed how stupid Im being about this whole break up thing. Course it was gonna end sometime- they live different lives. I dont dislike Pete at all, just abit angry with him. The book could be intresting, as Im intrested in learning more about Tourettes. Might get it from the Library

[palacesprings]

usually a crap cash in released this time of year is in the bargain bins on December 26 - this one though will have reduced stickers all over it probably in November / early december [if not before!!!]

With returns, I'd wager more get pulped next march than actually sold.

[Princess]

I'm not sure if I will buy this. I don't like Pete anymore but it would be a fascinating read.

[Edwin]

This will do well, but only because most of his lame fans would probably by his vomit if you sold it to them.

It's all going to be overly sympathetic "oh my mum works in a fast food store" "oh my tourettes always hurts!" "i get nervous when i'm confronted and my tourettes gets worse!" "i don't know whether im straight or bi" "i have no substance to myself so i wear wacky clothes and act like a child in an effort for people to love me" "my big cock wont fit in anyone!"

excuse me LAME?! how dare you say that! Every housemate is allowed fans but not Pete because that means they're LAME!? Geez. From now on all respect to you as a poster has gone! HOW DARE YOU SAY THAT!

This book will be very informative and quite an interesting to read about how dealt with tourettes, his childhood - changing schools etc.

I'm NOT LAME!

I don't see how you can think the book will be "informative" and "interesting" when it has yet to be published, it pretty much proves my theory anyway. I'm sure you're a nice person, but i'm sick of Pete fans that will justify everything he does no matter how pathetic or disloyle it is.

It's more likely to be filled with sugar coated pro pete nonsense.

Does anyone think that Pete would actually write this book? Seriously, can any of you imagine pete sitting down, at a computer to write this book? It's going to be some sleazy money grabbing agent or something along those lines, so I doubt we can expect any "honesty" in this at all.

[jos]

That seems to have come out quick!

[Bells]

Really, that fast?
I think it'll do well though. And I also think it's good it's out now, quite clever - it'll probably sell well because he's still pretty much gaining lots of column inches at the moment.

[Siouxsie]

I need to read it lol

[xGemmax]

I think it will be an interesting read. I might buy it

[REVOLUTION]

This will GO well in the BOOKS SELLING im buying it
