A HUGE 80s pop star has boasted that she will spill the beans on her “intense” romances with famous Hollywood stars in her new memoir.
Debbie Gibson confessed that she plans to reveal her side of relationships with co-stars in her upcoming book and said she hadn’t asked for their “permission”, just their “blessing” to tell all.

The singer-songwriter is rumored to have dated stars such as Ryan Seacrest, Knots Landing’s Joey Gian, Bold and the Beautiful’s Lorenzo Lamas, American Idol’s Constantine Maroulis, and UK singer and songwriter Darren Day.
Debbie, 54, revealed that the 18 months writing her experiences for Eternally Electric was like a combination of “therapy and torture.”
However, the singer-songwriter revealed that she luckily never had a “#MeToo experience” despite growing up in the male-dominated world of music in the late 1980s and 1990s.
The memoir will examine her close bond with late mother and manager Diane, who guided her daughter to massive teen stardom in the 1980s thanks to her strong songwriting skills penning hits like Electric Youth And Only In My Dreams.
She reveals that her book will finally be able to present a lengthy insight—in her own words—about aspects of her career, including her use of prescription meds.
Speaking exclusively on camera at the Black & White Ball about the book, Debbie opened up on the challenges writing about her life: “First of all, I do therapy anyway, so I did not need more therapy. This is doing therapy all day, every day for a year and a half. Nobody needs to relive their life in that many details.
“I don’t want to give anything away, but I just think that there are some challenges I’ve been through that people don’t know about.
“There is a lot about my late mom and my story because she managed me for 25 years.
“There were some of my co-stars that I have worked with, that I have gone and gotten their blessing. I go, ‘Hey, this is kind of maybe an intense time we had together, but do you mind if I share?… I’d love your blessing.’
“And I also often said to people, ‘I’m not asking for your permission, I’m asking for your blessing, but I’d love to know if you want to add anything? Do you have more insight that I’m not thinking about?’

“So it is a lot about the music business in the 80s and it was very much a boys’ club. I oddly enough, did not have a Me Too story, which is unbelievable. But that kind of energy and agenda was happening, that narrative. So there’s a lot about that as well.”
Debbie made headlines when she confessed to using a “cocktail of Tylenol PM and Xanax” on tour in her twenties to “get that body on the stage” during a 2016 OWN interview.

But the star, who sold over 16 million albums and an ASCAP Songwriter of the Year award, says the book will delve deeper into that battle.
“I talk about it. This is why I did the book because for me to encapsulate it into a soundbite right now, wouldn’t do it justice,” she said.
“Really my journey has been a health and a mental health journey that I do go into detail about.”

Debbie was complimented by many guests about her youthful looks at the lavish gala held at The Encore Hotel in Las Vegas.
The star insists that she shies away from cosmetic procedures and is energized by a positive mindset.
“It sounds very simple and clichéd, but I love what I do,” Debbie said.
“I love my friends, my family, my dogs. I lean into joy because we all can get very intense about life and I have many of those moments as well.
“But I think I have become pretty good at shifting energy, I am always looking at the world with new eyes and with a fresh perspective and with hope. Hope will keep you youthful. And I wrote the song Electric Youth, so I’ve got to walk the walk.
“Honestly, I am not big on potions and creams and procedures. And if people are, then whatever makes people happy and feel great.
“It sounds very simple and cliched, but I love what I do.

“I find truly if I’m happy and at ease and I’m having a great day, it transcends everything. You can’t create that. And so I think if people focus on living their life authentically, it’s going to show everywhere else.”
The Black & White Ball honors stars for their artistic achievements and philanthropic contributions while highlighting Nevada Ballet Theater’s community impact.
Speaking about being chosen, Debbie said: “I am so grateful for this honor; really, truly, this room is just brimming with great energy, classy people, and so I can’t believe that the night belongs to me. It’s wild.”
Gibson, who has enjoyed Broadway hit runs in shows like Les Misérables, Beauty and the Beast and Cabaret, has vowed to open up about all aspects of her life in her new book.
A statement about the book said: “Anxiety, depression, financial struggles, illness — Debbie writes candidly about these and other challenges, and how she ultimately redesigned her life to overcome them.
“This is the story of her not only surviving, but thriving: returning to her musical roots, releasing new albums, going back out on tour, and living the best version of her authentic self to remain…Eternally Electric!”
