Actor Josh Gad opens up in his new memoir, 'In Gad We Trust: A Tell-Some,' sharing stories about his rise to fame, personal struggles, and Hollywood experiences. Gad describes the book as a form of therapy, revealing his vulnerability and honesty in exploring various aspects of his life, including his absent father, his journey into parenthood, and his career successes.
Josh Gad rips the Band-Aid off in his forthcoming memoir, In Gad We Trust: A Tell-Some, proving that he’s so much more than just a musical Mormon and an animated snowman.
“It’s more of a joke. If anything, I tell all and then some,” Gad explained to Us. 'I looked at the exercise, as I was getting further into it, as if it was therapy in front of a mirror. The more vulnerable I got, the more I allowed myself to go down that path — even though I was hesitant to, scared to and, maybe, resistant.”“That was sort of a kind of obvious decision, but also a profound one for me because I'm not usually an open book — no pun intended,” he explained.
“I love failing because it gives me a platform to succeed. Don’t let others force you to give up on yourself. I think perseverance is as important as skill,” Gad shared. “I didn’t love it at the time, certainly hated it — but rejection was as important to me and continues to be as important to me as acceptance. A part of it is, ‘F--- me? F--- you. I’m gonna prove you wrong.’”“I had always been uncomfortable and ashamed of my overweight body,” Gad wrote in the book.
