Pop-flop Katie Price set to top book bestseller list with ‘Paradise’
July 29th, 2010 - 5:37 pm ICT by ANI ( Leave a comment )London, July 29 (ANI): Katie Price a.k.a Jordan is all set to take over the number one spot in the Sunday Times Bestseller list, with her new novel ‘Paradise’.
The former glamour model’s fifth novel, the final instalment in her ‘Angel’ trilogy, will go straight in at number one for hardback fiction, outselling the number two book by two copies to one, said her publisher, Random House.
Katie, who chooses the plots for her books, penned by ghost-writer Rebecca Farnworth, said: “I think it’s brilliant that it’s number one. It just goes to show people that when I really put my mind to something it makes number one and it’s brilliant and I’m absolutely over the moon,” reports the Mirror.
Hundreds of screaming fans turned up to HMV on London’s Oxford Street to see the 32-year-old mother-of-three sign copies of her new book, which tells the story of a model from Brighton who rekindles her relationship with her ex.
Asked if there were any parallels between Angel’s feelings for her ex and her own towards ex-husband Peter Andre, she said: “No, it’s a novel and it’s fiction.”
The reality TV star also confirmed the trilogy of Angel novels are to be made into a Hollywood film, as is her own autobiography.
“I’ve already got a director and producer in America who are going to do a film about that,” said Katie. (ANI)
