Kelly rights the ship as she gets older, though, working as a scrub nurse and eventually as a model and actor.
“There have been times, I have to be honest, when I've been mad at her for having birthed me,” Kelly writes. In perhaps the most jarring and raw moment of the book, Kelly considers the value of her very existence.
The two spent years relying on friends and relatives to take them in, living at one point in a garage and at another, in a storage unit. Kelly recounts dancing at peep shows, suffering a beating at the hands of her stepfather and being coerced into making a sex tape.Īt its center, though, “Tell Me Everything” is about Kelly's relationship with her late mother, Maureen, an exotic dancer who struggled with addiction and had difficulty making ends meet. She shares tales of neglect, abuse and manipulation. The 42-year-old actor holds back absolutely nothing. It's a promise from Kelly to her readers. “Tell Me Everything” is much more than just a title. Kelly pulls back the curtain on her deeply traumatic early life in a stunning, achingly honest new memoir. What we don't know is how it all started.
