Worse Than He Says He Is
White Girls Don't Bounce: My Walk on the Wild Side with Dennis Rodman

The former wife of basketball legend Dennis Rodman tells all about their tumultuous relationship.
By the age of 20, Anicka Bakes was earning her living as a model in the fashion capitals of the world— Milan, New York, Paris, and Tokyo. Beautiful and wealthy, but still innocent in the ways of the heart, Anicka met a sensitive and talented athlete on the rise named Dennis Rodman, and the two fell in love. In their seven years together, their daughter Alexis was born, Anicka suffered a car accident that ended her modeling career, and the couple married.
But in Worse than He Says He Is, Anicka relates that the two also engaged in many vicious private—and some very public—fights. You'll hear Anicka's story about the young man from the ghettos of Dallas who became one of the world's greatest professional athletes, master showmen, and outrageous cultural icons. Anicka reveals that as the money and fame poured in, Dennis was exposed as immature, manipulative, dishonest, and abusive to both his wife and child. This memoir recounts that instead of living in a happy family with a loving man, Anicka went through seven years of living hell.
