Lady Gaga's former assistant Jennifer O'Neill has signed a deal to pen a tell-all book about the musician.
O'Neill, who had sued the 'Poker Face' hitmaker for USD 393,000 in unpaid wages, is getting USD 1 million from Atria Books for the reveal that will focus her years with the hitmaker since 2009-2011, reported New York Post's Page Six.
In 2011, O'Neill sued Gaga for USD 393,000 in overtime back pay.
O'Neill had revealed that she was required to share a bed with Gaga as the singer hated to sleep alone and that meant she could be woken up in the middle of the night to change the DVD in the player. The suit was settled out of court in October 2013. Terms of the settlement were not disclosed.
Gaga, on her part, called Neill "a hood rat" who was trying to get the money that she did not earn.
