One of her books once caught Charlie Sheen's attention, when a social media user asked to write an updated version of 'The Threesome Handbook'. Responding to the request, the 'Two and a Half Men' star tweeted, "Done! Wrote it in my sleep! RT @amanduhmarshall @Charliesheen write the update! #tigerblood not in the index!"

What did Misha Collins say about Monica Lewinsky?
Commenting on the scandal surrounding the infamous affair between Monica Lewinsky and Bill Clinton, Collins, going by his real name Dmitri Krushnic, wrote in Baltimore Sun’s 1998 article, "In attempting to find clues about Ms Lewinsky's behavior to determine whether they suggest an affair, the media have reported that sources describe Ms Lewinsky as 'infatuated' with the president, 'star struck' and even 'a stalker.”
“Evelyn Lieberman, former White House deputy chief of staff, and other staffers say they recall Ms Lewinsky as suspiciously enthusiastic about spending time with Mr Clinton and that she 'hung around' the West Wing a little too much,” he further said.
Further defending Lewinsky, Collins added, “If Monica Lewinsky had not seemed like a star-struck, infatuated stalker who hung around the West Wing every chance she got, then it would be fair to say her behavior in the White House was suspicious.”
