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 artist An unflinching look back . . . with heartbreaking honesty and a wry sense of humor.USA Today The 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 groupin particular, its lead singer, Belinda Carlislestruggled with on their rise to stardom. Lips Unsealed is Belindas story in her own wordsfrom 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, wasand is stillfully lived.
