About this listen

A memoir from singer-songwriter Madison Beer, chronicling the past decade of her life spent in the spotlight--the ups, the downs, and the in-betweens that you won't see on social media.

Discovered at twelve years old, Madison Beer was one of the first artists to have her entire life documented online. Over the past decade, she has navigated the spotlight as a child, through her teenage years, and now as a young woman in her twenties.

In The Half of It, Madison pulls back the curtain to show the behind-the-scenes of her journey, from reckoning with mass hate online and the time her private pictures were leaked, to battling suicidal thoughts while making her highly acclaimed debut album, Life Support, and her recovery since then.

This memoir is an honest and unflinching account of self-love, mental health, and advocacy from one of the fastest-rising musical voices and most influential social media presences of her generation. It hammers home the point, more striking and urgent than ever, that no matter how close the internet may make us feel to people, we truly don't know the half of it.

i’ve always listened to madison and knew briefly about her nudes being leaked online but to hear her whole story is incredible. to see a woman older than me but still so young and be so wise is so amazing and inspirational. this book has taught me many things with one of them being to be kinder to myself and to also not assume someone’s story or mental health from what they present online. i know madison’s won’t read this but if she is i love u and keep inspiring and sharing your story and music.

i love u madison

how she tells people its ok to have ups and downs, its all apart of life.
