Chocolate, Please - by Lisa Lampanelli (Paperback)

About the Book

Comedy's Grammy-nominated Queen of Mean reveals all in her jaw-droppingly hilarious, politically incorrect memoir.

Book Synopsis

Lisa Lampanelli, who Howard Stern calls "a true original and a brilliant comedy mind," reveals all in Chocolate, Please, a jaw-droppingly hilarious, politically incorrect memoir on everything from relationships, food, and fat to why once you go black, you never go back. The gutter-mouthed, Grammy-nominated comedienne happily dishes on nearly everything--from why all white women should date black men to the virtues of codependency to how to turn a stick of butter into parental love and attention--delightedly skewering all topics with equal fervor, herself included.

From the Back Cover

An inside look at the life of Comedy's Lovable Queen of Mean, Lisa Lampanelli, as she dishes on everything from relationships to food, fat, and rehab.

By telling her story in a very real, very candid way, Lisa shows her audience that it's okay to be yourself, even if it's just one rehab stint at a time.
