UK pop star Lily Allen has lived a tumultuous life, and in a new book, she'll tell us all about it. As Pitchfork points out, the Bookseller reports that Allen has signed on with Blink to write an as-yet-untitled autobiography, which is due to be published in the fall of 2018. In the book, Allen will write about things like eating disorders, drug and alcohol addiction, and losing a child, as well as her career. In a statement, Allen says, "Some of it I think might be uncomfortable and shocking and brutal. There will be good stuff in there too; happy times. I will try and make it funny. I know it’s about me but I hope that a lot of it will ring true with anyone who reads it. It won’t be written with shame. It will be true."
