Description'It's f*cking great!!! Raw, intimate, hilarious, actually inspiring.' - Jon Stewart There are things Chelsea Devantez probably shouldn't be telling you. Many of them are in this book: some are embarrassing (like when she tried to break her three year spell of celibacy using a guide of seduction tips). Some are confessional (getting sentenced to the 'hell hill' at Mormon church camp). Some are TMI (a series of outrageous doctor visits that ended with one doctor misdiagnosing her as 'pregnant'!). A dynamic memoir-in-essays by comedian, screenwriter, and podcaster Chelsea Devantez, detailing her tumultuous upbringing and uproarious career path into Hollywood. CAPTIVATING, TOPICAL STORYTELLER: Chelsea's voice offers a perfect marriage of light and dark - think Mindy Kaling meets Jennette McCurdy. From essays on female friend break-ups, the absurdity of wedding planning, hilarious Hollywood horror stories - to surviving domestic violence, early-aughts dieting culture, and the questions around her identity and ethnicity as a donor-conceived child, her storytelling is impossible to turn away from. MULTI-MEDIA DARLING: Chelsea's platform has tentpoles in the comedy, TV/film, literary, and podcasting spheres. Her comedy sets and live shows are constantly selling out. Her podcast guests draw from a roster of celebrity friends, including Cecily Strong, Chelsea Peretti, Adam Pally, Margaret Cho, Leighton Meester, Debby Ryan, Amber Ruffin, and so many more. |
