À propos de cet audio
The perfect gift for Brooke Shields fans, There Was a Little Girl explores Brooke's relationship with her unforgettable mother, Teri, in this extraordinary, heartfelt memoir that became a New York Times best-seller.
Brooke Shields never had what anyone would consider an ordinary life. She was raised by her Newark-tough single mom, Teri, a woman who loved the world of show business and was often a media sensation all by herself. Brooke's iconic modeling career began by chance when she was only 11 months old, and Teri's skills as both Brooke's mother and her manager were formidable. But in private she was troubled and drank heavily.
As Brooke became an adult the pair made choices and sacrifices that would affect their relationship forever. And when Brooke's own daughters were born she found that her experience as a mother was shaped in every way by the woman who raised her. But despite the many ups and downs, Brooke was by Teri's side when she died in 2012, a loving daughter until the end.
Only Brooke knows the truth of the remarkable, difficult, complicated woman who was her mother. And now, in an honest, open memoir about her life growing up, Brooke will reveal stories and feelings that are relatable to anyone who has been a mother or daughter.

Histoire
Brooke Shields has spent a lifetime in the public eye. Growing up as a child actor and model, her every feature was scrutinized, her every decision judged. Today Brooke faces a different kind of scrutiny: that of being a “woman of a certain age.” And yet, for Brooke, the passage of time has brought freedom. At fifty-nine, she feels more comfortable in her skin, more empowered and confident than she did decades ago in those famous Calvin Kleins. Now, in Brooke Shields Is Not Allowed to Get Old, she’s changing the narrative about women and aging.

For decades, Demi Moore has been synonymous with celebrity. From iconic film roles to high-profile relationships, Moore has never been far from the spotlight - or the headlines. Even as Demi was becoming the highest paid actress in Hollywood, however, she was always outrunning her past. Throughout her rise to fame and during some of the most pivotal moments of her life, Demi battled addiction, body image issues, and childhood trauma that would follow her for years - all while juggling a skyrocketing career and at times negative public perception.

In this honest, layered and unforgettable book that alternates between storytelling and her own poetry, Pamela Anderson breaks the mold of the celebrity memoir while taking back the tale that has been crafted about her. Her blond bombshell image was ubiquitous in the 1990s. Discovered in the stands of a football game, she was immediately rocket launched into fame, becoming Playboy’s favorite cover girl and an emblem of Hollywood glamour and sexuality. But what happens when you lose grip on your own life—and the image the notoriety machine creates for you is not who you really are?

The first story Selma Blair Beitner ever heard about herself is that she was a mean, mean baby. With her mouth pulled in a perpetual snarl and a head so furry it had to be rubbed to make way for her forehead, Selma spent years living up to her terrible reputation: biting her sisters, lying spontaneously, getting drunk from Passover wine at the age of seven, and behaving dramatically so that she would be the center of attention. In a memoir that is as wildly funny as it is emotionally shattering, Blair tells the captivating story of growing up and finding her truth.

An Amazing Story
This story of Brooke breaking ties with her mother as her manager shows the extent of her torment and trauma of getting away from her mother and her alcoholism. How she traded one controlling relationship for another. Her leaving her mother’s control to the control of her boyfriend turned husband and his company and the subsequent breaking free from him as well.
I found her downfalls and triumphs amazing and filled with hope, disparate to new hopefulness to final happiness. Brooke tells of the loss of a relationship with her mother that she longed for right up to her mother’s death. The sadness comes through her words bringing you right along in her grief.
I admire the difficult times that Brook went through in order to live a happier, healthier life. How she found love and family and grieved her loss of her relationship with her mother.
I recommend this book to those that enjoy true stories of people’s lives.

Unabashedly honest, humble, and heartfelt!
The life-long struggle of Teri's addiction, and the life-long struggle of Brooke's affliction. The story is straightforward and interesting; reveals feelings, emotions, and habits that are indeed complex. But it's the story-telling and performance by Brooke that really pulls-me-in and tugs-at-my-heart! The complicated and twisted mother-daughter relationship is a head-scratcher which perfectly exemplifies the true nature of co-dependence and dysfunction. So much love between the two but so much frustration over Teri's devotion to the Bottle and to Brooke, two things that do not go hand-in-hand.
Although the book was long, and the details about Teri's drinking somewhat repetitive, I actually really enjoyed hearing all the nitty-gritty details about Brooke's life growing-up, despite her mom's alcoholism, and despite her young celebrity and success; and how she forged forward into adulthood striving for a healthy balance in her life re. work, marriage, kids, and caretaker to her mom. Bravo Brooke!
Being the same age as Brooke, and being a big fan since she emerged in the early 80's, it was more than a delight to go down the memory lane of Brooke's life. I learned so much more about her than I thought I knew, and I am a bigger fan now because of it. Much respect and admiration to Brooke.

Very interesting and down to earth account. It’s sad that Brooks early years were of such neglect and stress and of the worry she felt about her mother and her own safety growing up. It’s wonderful and truly amazing the grit Brook has to not only survive her youth but also to become an amazing mother and wife! That takes smarts, and courage, and big beautiful heart full of love!

An insightful peek behind the curtain
I enjoyed how honest this book was. She never tried to paint her mother as a Saint but rather a mother who despite her vices was just trying to do what's best for her daughter. The media had always portrayed Terri as a woman who would sell Brooke's body to gain a quick profit, and Brooke as a bit of a brat. This books proves that no one's story is as black and white as the tabloids would have you believe.

What a story!
We always think that movie stars lead charmed, perfect lives. I knew nothing of Brooke Shields' life story. What an incredible situation to grow up in, with fame and fortune, but also an alcoholic single parent who didn't know how to kick her demons. Brooke's candid exploration of how that affected her into adulthood is poignant and open. I love knowing her story now!
