Jesse James Will Penn Tell-All Book

He’s been vilified in the media for cheating on Oscar winning actress and America’s darling Sandra Bullock, but Jesse James will eventually get the chance to have his side of the story out: in an upcoming book.

A new report in Contact Music claims that James, now engaged to celebrity tattoo artist Kat Von D, is working on a tell-all book, which has already been picked up for publishing.

Details on the deal are very sketchy right now, but given how much Jesse James insisted that he wasn’t the bad guy the media made him to appear, it’s very likely that the book will include some details on the cheating scandal.

Word in the blogosphere also has it that it may even touch on subjects like his life as the husband of Sandra Bullock, and perhaps even details of his ongoing romance with Kat.

Otherwise, it wouldn’t be called a “tell-all,” would it. Of course, at this point, all of this is just speculation.

“Sandra Bullock’s ex-husband Jesse James is planning a major tell-all,” Contact Music reports.

“The TV mechanic’s memoir, American Outlaw, has been picked up by publishers at Gallery Books, an imprint of Simon & Schuster,” the e-zine further reports.

“A publication date has not been set, but the book is expected to be released this year (11),” Contact Music says.

If so, then more details on the deal, such as the date of release and the topics it will touch upon (in large) should be announced in the weeks to come.

As noted above, Jesse is now engaged to Kat, whom he reportedly started dating after Sandra broke up with him in the aftermath of the cheating scandal.

However, there are reports out there suggesting that the affair may have actually started way sooner than that, with one in particular claiming that James and Kat were together since he was still married to Sandra, as we also reported a while back.

This too is just speculation at this point, but will hopefully be cleared out once the book is out.
