29 October 2015 - 02:17 By Leonie Wagner

Amber Rose can now add "author" to her CV, following the release of her autobiographical self-help book. The unapologetically titled How to Be a Bad Bitch is a collection of the 32-year-old's life lessons, relationship secrets and keys to success.Having first garnered attention as an exotic dancer who later featured in music videos, Rose is also known for her relationships with rappers Kanye West and Wiz Khalifa and her social media rants against the Kardashian sisters.In her book, released earlier this week, she defines a bad bitch as a "woman who gets her way by any means necessary". Her most fridge-magnet-worthy tips include:Never sleep with a guy because you feel you should or you have to in order to make him like you.Never mess with another woman's man.If you want to f**k a guy, do it. A bad bitch isn't ashamed of her desire. Men go out and get some all the time, without anyone making a fuss. It's not our problem there's a double standard in our culture.Have your own signature look.Take really big risks and act when inspiration strikes.Entertainment website Refinery 29 slammed Rose's book as a guide to "how to live your life to please men", saying her advice "attempts to dress itself up in feminism only to cave in on itself".But pop culture site Fusion hailed Rose as "a woman with fortitude who knows who she is and refuses to let others define her by her past job, her previous relationships, or anyone's reductive views of what a woman should be"...
