Lukas Gage's four favorite celebrity memoirs

Lukas Gage is an actor/writer/producer who is best known for his role in the first season of the Emmy Award–winning HBO limited series, The White Lotus. Gage also starred in Netflix’s You; Euphoria on HBO; Daniel Goldhaber’s How to Blow Up a Pipeline; Down Low for FilmNation, which he cowrote and stars opposite Zach Quinto and Simon Rex; and Fargo on FX/HULU. Gage can also be seen in the remake of Road House for Amazon/MGM, Smile 2 for Paramount, and the highly anticipated film, Rosebush Pruning.

Gage's new memoir, I Wrote This for Attention, "details his upbringing in the west coast—including a broken family, struggles with addiction, sex, borderline personality disorder—and his commitment to being the center of attention at all times, even as he actually becomes a star."

At Lit Hub Gage tagged four celebrity memoirs that "didn’t just entertain me; they also gave me permission to overshare, to own my most cringe qualities, and to actually embrace them." One title on the list:
Demi Moore, Inside Out

Demi doesn’t sugarcoat a thing. Addiction, breakdowns, heartbreak… and she spills it all. You expect Hollywood glam, but what you really get is someone clawing their way back to themselves. And the way she writes (and reads on Audible, in that raspy, velvety voice) is both brutal and beautiful.

Inside Out is among Daniel D’Addario's nine books that take you inside the entertainment industry.
