Bad Points

General Comments
This book is supposed to give us an insight into Katie price/Jordan's life. The only real insight in to her life is all the men she has had and a bit about modelling. Anybody who reads the papers will know about Jordan and her famous lifestyle. She is now married to Peter Andre and has another baby. Jordan has another son by a footballer who has a lot of medical problems and is blind. I really feel for him, he is so cute. I don't think though that it's right to sell her story about her son Harvey and his problems, this is something I know I never could dream about doing.



The book starts off with her family. Katie Say's she has been called all sorts of names like a man-eater and a freak. You really can see why. On the first page Katie say's modelling is my job but there is more to me then that. Well reading from this book you can't really tell. Katie's mum who is now Harvey's nanny gave her job up to do this, her brother does Jordan's web site and that's about it for her family, her step dad who she thinks of as her real dad and her step sister. Reading the book though you do find out that Katie/Jordan has had a lot of problems with men from the age of three. Her real dad walked out on them and never came back. Katie/Jordan has never met him since. His name was Ray Infield and he met Amy, Katie's mum, at school. The time he was there he did not make much off an effort with Katie as he did with her brother Daniel. They did father and son things together. That's probably why Katie / Jordan craves attention from men who knows. Katie grew up in Brighton UK and most of her family are from there also.



The book then moves swiftly on missing most of her teens out. I did say there was not much insight into her life. Jordan / Katie has always been a bit of an exhibitionist. She quotes " I love showing off " you could never tell. Now we are going to find out about how she became a model. At the age of 11 Katie enrolled in modelling school and got her first job when she was oh it does not actually say when she did get her first modelling job. Katie started out dong catwalk modelling with a Tina turner hairstyle. When Katie was 13 she started modelling for Joe bloggs jeans and t-shirts. Then she got a call from the photographer and said to her mum that she should get her a portfolio done. At this point he was to be trusted. The bloke though was a well-known paedophile and was selling the photos of Katie on to others.



Katie's first love.

Was a man called Jeff that she moved in with and lost her virginity to. Her mother was not pleased with this but they carried on anyway. It turned out that he was nasty piece of work. There is about 2 chapters on this on the book goes on a bit. Then the other men that have been in Katie's life are Dane Bowers, Eddie Jordan, Ace and a few others.



The surgery how it all started.

Every one told her not to have the surgery but she went a head with it anyway. Though she had it 4 times i think all in all. First came the big boobs. Not sure what size but think they are an FF or something like that. She could not actually afford her first boob job a paper paid for them and in return she would do the her first topless shots for them, I think. Jordan has always wanted bigger breast from at school and boy she got them. I do admire her because what she wants by the sounds of it she gets. Since having her boob jobs she has done no end of top less modelling and this is what has made her Jordan / Katie today. It did not stop there however since having her boobs done Katie has now had Lip o suction where she had all the fat sucked out of her legs and bum. Nose job and wrinkles removed and more besides. Who can blame the girl really all the money Katie has made from her modelling and selling her stores it penny's to her I suppose. There is talk now though that she is giving up the modelling and having a breast reduction god Katie will look funny but on the other hand normal.



Single mum.

Since Katie found out she was pregnant with Harvey. Dwight dumped her and did not want to know. Katie has brought up Harvey on her on I think for about year and a half before meeting peter in the reality TV show, I'm a celebrity. Harvey has many problems with his health and just recently has being in hospital again for 3 weeks before her and peter got married. The main problem is he is blind. If any of you have seen a picture of Harvey then you will also now he is a very big boy and he is on 3. Harvey weighs 5 and half stone and has a lot of weight problems although he does not eat a lot. I have to admire Katie for that I don't think I could manage with Harvey on my own. My daughter is half deaf and I know I need the support of my husband.



Jungle.

This is when Katie went into the jungle on I'm a celebrity get me out of here. This is of course where Katie met her husband Peter Andre. They played a very clever game though. Katie never showed her true feelings toward peter until she got kicked out from the jungle. Everybody thought that this was a publicity job. Katie and Peter though proved everybody wrong and got married in September of this year and had a baby boy in July.



This book has got some photo's of Katie's life in and her boyfriends, there are not many to look at though.



Where to buy the book.

Well you can buy this book from any where and it's very cheap. I brought this book for 1p from world books and that was to much in my opinion. WH Smith have this in and I think it's about £12.99 but do not pay that as this book is a load of rubbish borrow it from somebody and save your money.



Overall.

This is one of the worst books on somebody I have ever read. This book offers no real insight into Katie / Jordan's life before she came a model or after. 272 pages on the most bites about her life she could of wrote on about 10. Very disappointing read in my opinion.
