SINÉAD O’CONNOR will commit her extraordinary, turbulent life to the page in a new memoir, to be released in 2016.

The controversial singer has signed a deal with Penguin Ireland to write her memoirs, taking in everything from her troubled upbringing to her success with 1987′s The Lion and the Cobra and beyond.

In typical O’Connor fashion, the singer said she wouldn’t be holding back:

I’ve never stopped expressing myself in my music, and now, with a book. And I look forward to dishing the sexual dirt on everyone I’ve ever slept with.

Oooh.

The as-yet untitled book is expected to be published sometime in 2016. If you’re curious to what a Sinéad O’Connor-penned book will be like, her confessional blog (the original home of her infamous open letter to Miley Cyrus) will give you an idea of what to expect.

Yep, we can’t wait either.
