HOLLYWOOD - Former Beverly Hills, 90210 star Tori Spelling has signed a deal to write her memoirs, due out in the spring of 2008.
The 33-year-old actress, who is expecting her first child with husband Dean McDermott, has not yet informed her family, with whom she's had a tense relationship, about the book.

The star has reportedly been estranged from her mother Candy, and describes her relationship with her brother Randy as "OK."

She tells USA Today, "I hope that it doesn't cause more damage. Randy's kind of caught in the middle because he has a very close relationship with my mother and a very close relationship with me."

As for her mother, she says, "I wish things were different. My mother and I have always had a difficult relationship. There has always been love, and I don't doubt now that there's love.”

Among the topics she plans to cover in the book are plastic surgery, past relationships, and her treatment in her father Aaron Spelling's last will and testament.

When the TV mogul died in June, he left behind an estate estimated to be worth more than $300 million, but Tori reportedly received "less than $1 million."

She adds, "You have to take everything with a grain of salt. I'm not ashamed to admit that circumstances have changed, and you work with things the best you can."

Oh she RECEIVED LESS THAN $1 MILLION DOLLARS...boo hoo. GIMME A BREAK TORI!!!!! I am sure there are a lot of less fortunate people in this country who would be happy with a decent job, clothes on their back, a roof over their head and their health. She has a career, she can make her own money, so what if daddy left her ONLY 1 million dollars. That is a hell of a lot more than anyone gets working their ass off their whole lives. Besides, that's what she gets for marrying a man and cheating on him with a married man with a pregnant wife.

Eh... it may not be about the money but just the vindictiveness of it. Like, if my mom left my brother and sister $10 each and only gave me $5, I would still be hurt. To Tori, it may feel like he was getting in one last dig at her before he died.

Is it too late to bring back OJ's book?

Isn't she a little young to write her memoirs?
