Poptastic Confessions!: Hear Me Out by Sarah Harding

Dear Poptastic Readers,

Sarah Harding from the group Girls Aloud has a new book out called Hear Me Out, which is named after a song she wrote for Girls Aloud with the same name. Not only is the book #1 in the UK, but the song is also #1 on the iTunes downloads chart this week.

This is very special because as fans know that last August, Sarah revealed that she had breast cancer that had advanced to other parts of her body. And just last month, she announced that her cancer is in fact too far advanced, and it is terminal.

Sarah said about her book ... I can't rewrite history; all I can do is be honest and wear my heart on my sleeve. It's really the only way I know. I want to show people the real me. Or perhaps remind them. Because, somewhere — amongst the nightclubs, the frocks and hairdos, the big chart hits, and the glamour of being a popstar — the other Sarah Harding got utterly lost. She's the one who's been forgotten. And all I want is for you to hear her out.

Listen to the 2004 Girls Aloud song "Hear Me Out" here ...
