Descripción editorial
A witty, warm, and inspiring memoir from the E News! host, Fashion Police panelist, red-carpet correspondent, author, and reality show star Giuliana Rancic.
Giuliana Rancic is best known for interviewing A-listers on the red carpet and E! News, skewering their shocking style choices on Fashion Police, and giving viewers a front row seat to her marriage and family life on her reality show, Giuliana & Bill. What fans may not know is that she learned English from Eddie Murphy, got her American citizenship so she could be a beauty queen, and used to have a bad habit of stealing cars for fun.
Giuliana bares this and so much more in her hilarious, warm, and inspiring memoir, Going Off Script. From a young age she dreamed of being a TV anchorwoman but, because of her inclination toward mischief and away from schoolwork, her path to her dream job was far from straight. After a fateful (and mortifying) encounter with the late Senator Ted Kennedy, she learned that Hollywood news was where she belonged. Thankfully for readers, this epiphany led her to a bounty of LA misadventures (featuring notables such as Johnny Depp, Leonardo DiCaprio, and Russell Crowe) and an entertaining behind-the-scenes perspective on what our favorite celebrities are really like.
In spite of her glamorous Hollywood life, however, Giuliana could not escape some rockier times, including her battles with infertility and breast cancer. Here, for the first time, she reveals the whole truth behind her well-publicized struggles, and the highly controversial decisions she had to make. And, of course, at the heart of it all are the two loves of her life who keep her strong through everything, her husband Bill and her son, Duke.
Candid, funny, and poignant, Going Off Script is an autobiography that proves you don’t always have to follow the rules to get the life you’ve always dreamed of.

A life of challenges and success
OH MY GOSH!! I truly LOVED this book/memoir. I’ve been a HUGE fan of Giuliana Rancic all my life. She’s literally the sole reason I decided to become a journalist. I remember being about 4 or 5 years old watching a red carpet event with my mum and telling her I wanted to do exactly what Giuliana was doing. And fast forward years after I did study the same career she did and she’s been one of my biggest role models and inspiration in this industry.
The book takes you along her life journey and all she had to go through to get where she got and everything she had to endure to become the successful journalist, entrepreneur and woman she is today. Truly loved the story and cried so many times. Very well divided in 11 chapters + an epilogue and personal pictures provided by Giuliana herself, they seem at points pretty long, but they are amazing at catching your attention. Seriously I’ve been looking for this book for so long and think it came at the right moment for me to read because of the point in which I am at my career right now. Highly recommend it for young journalist out there to read too. It is absolutely a must read.
