This is probably a stupid question...

You know "Automatic biographies" (sp?) as it is writen from the celebrities view point does it include stuff from before they were actually celebritties (e.g. Their life as a child) or does it just start when the started doing what ever it is they're famous for (e.g. Singing)?


I'm asking becuase I don't have any and the only one I'm likely to buy (If he has one) is Jacko's and he was a celebrity for all his life - so my question won't aply to him.

I'm pretty sure they include their whole life.

I've only read one, or part of one, Geri Halliwells.
It included her childhood.
I think most would include the whole life?

Definition of Autobiography

It wouldn't be an autobiography if it didn't include their 'life story'. If it only had their 'life since their famousity' it would be labeled something else, like a career documentation or something.

Thank you for answering everyone.
