29-year old Out Actor Lukas Gage Wrote a Memoir
Lukas Gage might be young, but he's lived quite a life. Enough so that publishing house Simon and Schuster agreed to publish his new memoir, I Wrote This for Attention.
According to the publisher the book is: "[a] riveting and heartwarming memoir by the actor of White Lotus and Euphoria that details his upbringing in the west coast—including a broken family, struggles with addiction, sex, borderline personality disorder—and his commitment to being the center of attention at all times, even as he actually becomes a star."
And what a star! He's appeared in everything from The Millionaires and Scouts Guide to the Zombie Apocalypse, to Fargo and Dead Boy Detectives.
“The book is inspired from my many journals I kept as a kid, where I wrote about a lot of things that I never shared with anybody else,” Gage told Us Weekly. “In this book, I start talking about it, and you can see why sometimes it felt safer not to.”
The promo from Simon and Schuster continues: "Lukas Gage was no stranger to going viral. He loved attention. As a toddler, he set his room on fire. As a child, he hugged and flirted with women at Hooters to his father’s delight. As a teen, he stole handles of alcohol and cherry cough syrup. He had sex at a restroom in Chili’s, and fell hopelessly in love with a girl who wore an ankle monitor."
He also married Chris Appleton, who filed for divorce six months after tying the knot.
You know this lad has some stories to tell!
