    Rob Lowe

    "Stories I Only Tell My Friends" (2011)
    "Love Life" (2014)

    Lowe is a great storyteller, which makes both his memoirs entertaining reads, and not just lists of titillating tidbits he’s willing to share. Though we will condense them down to these juicy disclosures: He turned down the McDreamy role in "Grey’s Anatomy" because Les Moonves wanted him to star in "Dr. Vegas"; Jewel once wiped her mouth off after kissing him for a scene in another failed drama, "The Lyons’ Den"; he once found out an actress he was dating was also sleeping with Warren Beatty… and Beatty’s the one who told him; he lost his virginity at age 14, to his little brother Chad’s 16-year-old babysitter; and he’s got some Charlie Sheen stories of his own. The two were childhood friends, and in "Stories," Lowe says Sheen was an AV club member who wouldn’t go near the ocean, wore preppy Polo shirts, wanted to be a pro baseball player, and was a “conspiracy-theory freak” who sometimes wore a bulletproof vest to school under his clothes.
