NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A spellbinding and shocking look at Belinda Carlisles role in forming the Go-Gos and her rise, fall, and eventual rebirth as a wife, mother, and sober artistAn unflinching look back . . . with heartbreaking honesty and a wry sense of humor.-USA TodayThe women of the iconic eighties band the Go-Gos will always be remembered as they appeared on the back of their debut record: sunny, smiling, each soaking in her own private bubble bath with chocolates and champagne. The photo is a perfect tribute to the fun, irreverent brand of pop music that the Go-Gos created, but it also conceals the trials and secret demons that the members of the group-in particular, its lead singer, Belinda Carlisle-struggled with on their rise to stardom.Lips Unsealed is Belindas story in her own words-from her crazy days on tour with the Go-Gos to her private problems with abusive relationships, self-esteem, and a thirty-year battle with addiction. Ultimately, it is a love letter to music, the lifelong friendships between the members of the Go-Gos, the beloved husband and son who led Belinda to sobriety, and a life which, though deeply flawed, was-and is still-fully lived.
