What people are saying…

“Gina G is a national treasure, a rare kind of legend who’s more than an actress and storyteller; she’s a rock and roll goddess, proof that grit, glamour, and guts are still stitched into the fabric of fame. Opening up about her times with Prince and wild days in the deep Valley, for fans and friends alike, it’s a ride as electric as she is.” —Miley Cyrus

“Just like Gina—this book is fucking wild, soulful, hilarious, and somehow looks you directly in the eye and tells it like it is. LET THE GERSHONAISSANCE BEGIN!” —Aubrey Plaza

“Gina Gershon is the coolest woman on the planet, and AlphaPussy is the coolest, most fun, hottest, most punk book of the year.” —James Frey, author of Next to Heaven

About the Book

From a wayward California girl growing up in the heart of the pornborn San Fernando Valley, Gina Gershon found herself on a journey that has been anything but traditional. Along the way, she had to learn how to spot the toxic types—in both her personal life and her career—and figure out how to dodge, outsmart, or hustle her way through shady characters and sketchy situations, all the while fighting to protect her autonomy as a woman and as an actress.

AlphaPussy is a collection of true stories about experience, resilience, and the messy art of figuring it out as you go. They include sometimes strange encounters with such personalities as Paul Verhoeven, Tom Cruise, Sharon Stone, Prince, Bob Dylan, Sylvester Stallone, David Mamet, Bob Fosse, and so many others. Often hilarious, usually cautionary, and almost always wrapped in absurdity, Gershon’s tales examine the bad decisions, awkward moments, and cringe-worthy interactions that somehow gave rise to survival skills.

In a world full of bullies, predators, and people trying to tell her who she was, or who she should be, it was crucial for Gershon to become an AlphaPussy: a woman who navigates through this perilous jungle of a world with personal agency and responsibility.
