Ashley Judd, after much consideration, decided that a Kentucky Senate bid wasn't the best idea for her right now.
Ronald Reagan, Al Franken, Clint Eastwood, Sonny Bono and the cast of 'Predator' have all gone from celebrities to elected officials, and they may be adding one more to their ranks: Ashley Judd.
In her new memoir, 'All That Is Bitter & Sweet,' actress Ashley Judd opens up about a lot of painful issues, from her father's involvement with drugs, to the "mayhem" that followed her mother (country superstar Naomi Judd) to an experience with sexual abuse that greatly impacted her life.
According to Radar Online, Judd writes that "there was always marijuana inside the house" and that her father "was prone to taking hallucinogenics with friends on Saturday nights."
Of her mother, Ashley writes, "I loved my mother, but at the same time I dreaded the mayhem and uncertainty that followed her everywhere ... I often felt like an outsider observing my mom's life as she followed her own dreams."
