Ke$ha releasing illustrated memoirs

Singer KE$HA is set to lift the lid on her speedy rise to fame after inking a deal to release her memoirs.

The TiK ToK hitmaker, who shot to fame in 2009, will share how she went from waiting tables and working as a songwriter in Los Angeles to selling out concerts around the world.

My Crazy Beautiful Life, due to be released next month (20Nov12), will feature Ke$ha's "thoughts and reflections" as well as never-before-seen photos of the star from her childhood.

A statement from Ke$ha reads, "In less than three years I've gone from being the worst waitress in L.A. to living out my childhood dreams of singing my songs to people all over the world. Sometimes, it feels as if the last few years have encompassed a few decades.

"You might have heard my voice on the radio, seen me onstage and on the red carpet, or in a music video, but that's only a part of the story. In these pages, I'm revealing a more complete picture of what my life is really like. It's not all glamorous and it's not all pretty, but it's all real."
