Madison Beer is revisiting her past and telling a cautionary tale with the release of her new memoir ‘The Half of It.’ The 24-year-old singer and songwriter is telling her story of rising to fame at a young age, social media, and how it has impacted her mental health.

‘The Half of It’ was released on April 25 and is described as a chronological look at the past decade of her life spent in the spotlight. Beer became famous overnight in 2012 at the age of 13, after her Youtube cover of Etta James’ ‘At Last’ was shared on social media by Justin Bieber.

Beer’s Rise to fame
She was immediately signed to a music label and her social media following soared. Along with the fame came a slurry of online hate and death threats.

At 15 years old a private nude video she sent her hometown crush via Snapchat a year earlier was leaked. It wasn’t until six years later Beer realized she was a victim in the situation.
