Celebrity Divorce: Stars Whose Exes Wrote Tell-All Books

The Huffington Post     First Posted: 08/16/11 01:19 PM ET   Updated: 10/16/11 06:12 AM ET

After years of marriage, most people have stories to tell. Good, bad, funny, or revealing, these are the anecdotes that can crack up a dinner party or make you want to hang your head in shame.

Celebrities naturally have these tales too--it's just that unlike most of us, they have the opportunity to sell them. High-profile divorces often net estranged spouses book deals, and the spurned exes of Hollywood heavyweights have certainly managed to milk their hurt for all it's worth--like the late Amy Winehouse's ex-husband Blake Fielder-Civil, who is reportedly considering penning a book about the life and recent death of the late singer.

Click through the slides below and weigh in: Given the chance, would you write a tell-all about your split?

Antonia "Toya" Carter
1 of 6
Rapper Lil' Wayne has accomplished a lot in his short 28 years, and now his ex-wife, Antonia "Toya" Carter, has her own accomplishment to brag about: a memoir. Carter published her tell-all book "Priceless Inspirations" in April 2011 about her relationship with the rapper, with whom she had a child when she was 15 years old. The couple married in 2004 (when they were just 21) and divorced two years later. It doesn't seem like Wayne minds his ex airing their dirty laundry, though--he wrote the book's foreword!

So Sandra Bullock was furious with that hog she divorced for publishing a book. Must mean she settled with him for cash.

What she could have been thinking when she married him is a real mystery.
