Table of contents: title: After judging America's Got Talent, Piers took over from US TV legend Larry King in 2010, and immediately had to deal with some of the most shocking news events in recent US history, such as the attempted assassination of Democratic Representative Gabrielle Giffords, the killing of Osama bin Laden and the devastation caused by Hurricane Irene. He shares the diaries he kept during this rollercoaster period of his life. Piers also wades in on the big issues affecting America such as calling for tighter gun control; title: which has resulted in a petition signed by over 100,000 Americans calling for Piers to be deported. As well as angering the pro-gun activists, Piers also has a thing or two to say on the Bible, which he says is 'inherently flawed' and needs amending to allow gay marriage. And don't even get him started on Madonna.
