Today I had the chance to interview Jodie (click here to listen to it) to promote her new book “unSweetined”. I will admit, I didn’t get a chance to read the book over until about 30 minutes before the interview but when I did read some pages, I was pretting interested in it. Not so much for the fact I was a big Full House fan growing up, but because I could not believe all the crap Stephanie Tanner…I mean, Jodie had gone through!
Growing up as a child star. drugs, finding out she was adopted, drinking, more drugs and a nasty divorce…this lil gal has dealt with it all! It is odd to know that when I now watch Full House, I am looking at a cast that for the most part, is nothing like the characters they play on the show! The Olson Twins have had their share of issues, Bob Saget is a dirty comedian, John Stamos just dealt with an extortion case where he was accused of rape and cocaine use, Candace Cameron is a die hard Christian (not that there is anything wrong with that…just it is so not “D.J. Tanner”) and Dave Coulier is about as famous as my left shoe. Add in the crazy life Jodie has had and this show’s cast turned into a Full House of problems! (insert rim shot here).
Jodie All Grown Up!
Take a listen to the interview and if you want to check out some of the book, click here to read some of it. While it is sad to hear about these child stars and the life that became of them after the show is over and they get older, it is good to hear of someone getting help and turning things around before it is too late.
