He told Attitude magazine: ‘I am very excited about it. It’s more of a memoir, I’ll save the autobiography for when I’m older.
‘It’ll be warts [and all] and recalls what was happening back in the pop industry back in the 90s and when I went to live in Hollywood.
‘There are some really outrageous stories that most people wouldn’t know about. Yes, people should be afraid…very afraid.’
And the former pop idol appears to be relishing the build-up as he took to his Instagram page on May 14 to tease fans with a glimpse of what’s to come.
He posted a snap of the cover of his book, featuring a imagine of the star at the height of his success.
Anthony penned: ‘Can’t believe I’m saying this but I actually wrote a book. Like by myself, like those grown ups do. POP SCARS covers all things 90s pop but more importantly what happens AFTER fame.’
The star continued: ‘It’s about teenage fame, loss, addiction and hope, and how not to iron a white Kappa tracksuit.
‘It’s been described as ‘Laugh out loud, jaw dropping, and heartfelt’ but you can decide that.

The singer documented his 2022 entry into rehab after sadly relapsing a year earlier.
In February 2022, he took to Twitter to apologise to his family for not being ‘truthful’ as he admitted that alcoholism had ‘got a grip on him’ in an emotional post.
The singer spoke of his ‘mental struggles’, before signing off social media for the foreseeable future.
The statement read: ‘Today I go into rehab. Again. This illness of Alcoholism has got its grip. I’ll be off social media for a while.
‘To what family I have left, I’m sorry I wasn’t truthful I’ve been going through a lot of mental struggles. Good news I’m going to get the help I need.
‘My phone will be off for a while. Clint, Aunty Angela, Aunty Maria, Brad, I’m going to be OK and I love you all madly x.’
