Monica Lewinsky Gets $12 Million to Write Bill Clinton Tell-All: Report
US Magazine ^ | 9-20-12

Posted on 09/20/2012 1:50:20 PM PDT by STARWISE

The ultimate page turner?

Fourteen years after her affair with Bill Clinton nearly led to the premature end of his Presidency, Monica Lewinsky will reveal all of the shocking, nitty-gritty details of their infamous relationship in a tell-all -- one she was paid $12 million for, the New York Post reports.

Sources told the paper that the former White House intern, 39, will share love letters that she wrote Clinton, 66.

"In them, she opened her heart about her love for Bill and how much happier she could make him," an insider is quoted as saying. "Some of what she wrote was so raw that she never sent them."

The Post also claims that Lewinsky's book will reveal that Clinton derided wife Hillary Clinton as a "cold fish" and complained about their "non-existent sex life."

Lewinsky -- whose post-scandal life has included work as a news correspondent and handbag designer -- has had trouble earning a living, sources explained.

"No one will hire her and she can't get a job . . . She needs to make money somehow."

12 million bucks to write a book about having sex with Bill Clinton?

“It was as exciting as watching concrete set up.”

That’s a lot of money for one sentence.

I would think that the $12 million will make some things easier to swallow, at least in retrospect.

Couldn't resist responding to your graphic. A while back I saved the thread titled: Bill Clinton's memoir as told to Free Republic. It's dated 8/6/2001, and posted by Callahan.

The thread begins with: "Here's an entertaining diversion: Since we all know Clinton's book advance was a bribe by his cronies and not an actual payment to write anything meaningful or interesting, let's save him the trouble and write it for him. I'm sure if every Freeper contributed a paragraph or two who could have a full length memoir suitable for sale on Amazon.com."

It starts out with Callahan's post:

Chaper 1 - My mother, the Barfly

Post 2 ...on a cold and windy Arkansan night...by Freeper knarf.

It's a total of 72 posts. I don't want to post it because it may be too long, but if anyone wants a copy, Freep Mail me, and I'll cut and paste it to a message back to you.

For $12M I wonder if I might find some old love letters I wrote to Bill—and never sent.

$12 million ... hmm ... pocket change for Clinton, given the mega-$$$ he’s made from all his speaking engagements. Wonder if he’ll try to match or exceed the offer to keep her quiet.

Sell the movie rights too while at it....it will be one of the only original films that is not a remake/reboot/sequel/prequel in years. Though I bet someone already made the adult version of her book and experiences as an “intern.”

I guess we won’t be seeing much of Bill on tv in the future to avoid further embarrassment...

Didn't she go to Washington with the intention of seducing the POTUS?

"presidential kneepads" or something she talked about.

Yes, and I had forgotten it, but someone on another thread remembered that while in high school, she had had an affair with her drama teacher who was married. Naive my ass.

Monica better stay away from parks and airplanes....people who cross the clintoons frequently tend to commit “suicide” or die in “plane crashes”.

All Linda Tripp .. remember how Monica felt Tripp was her enemy. And look now at what a friend she actually was ... pushing her to keep the proof of the undeniable lie to reveal the WH horndog slimy liar. Without Linda, she’d sure not be looking at these millions when apparently she has no other means of support.
