"I'm writing a book! I got years and years of stuff I want to say, and I'm finally going to write a book for you all," Smith said in the video.


The "Pursuit of Happiness" actor asked Manson in the video, "Are you feeling confident? Are you feeling like we'll be able to do transcendent art with this book?"

Manson replied: "I spent the last six months with crippling anxiety, but today I feel great."

Smith said: "We're going to be meeting with five publishers, we're gonna pick one. And if I had to take a guess, I feel very confident that we're gonna go with the highest bidder... I'm just saying."

Manson's "The Subtle Art of Not Giving a F*ck" has sold 3 million copies and was No. 1 on the Bestseller list.
