Candy Spelling has never been one to get all warm and fuzzy about her daughter, Tori.

Especially now that the two will be competing on the bookshelves.

Tori’s new book, Mommywood was recently moved up to the same release date at her mother’s, Candyland, on April 14th.

Well, Candy wouldn’t hear of dueling release dates, so she had her book moved up to March 31st.

Tori’s camp is saying that they wanted the April 14th release date to be able to promote it for Mother’s Day and that it had nothing to do with her mother’s book date. However, Candy doesn’t seem to care the reason. Just as she has always done, she coldly pretends as though her daughter means nothing to her. It’s always a competition with her, and when she is losing, she quickly throws in the towel – but not before taking a stab at her daughter.

In an attempt to sound humane she says, “Tori is my daughter, and I love her. I wish her all the best with the publication of her new book.”

But then comes the icy stab.

“I never read her first one because my friends and family advised me against it. They said it would hurt my feelings, so I decided to pass. I won’t read her new one either.”

By the way, in case you missed my review of Tori’s sTORI Telling, it was really good! A must read, in fact. Especially if you love celeb gossip and know a bit about the family. Tori really is great at telling a story and her life is fascinating.

And yes, her mother really is the cold bitch you would expect. 110%.
