Chuck D Interviews Karrine Steffans




Last night on his Air America show Chuck D interviewed Karrine Stephens, author of "Confessions of a Video Vixen." Chuck worked hard to get something positive from the exchange, even refusing throughout the segment to use her infamous nickname "Superhead." The results are worth a listen, rather different from the other interviews you'll hear with her (it's about 40 minutes into the mp3).

She is truly a sad case. I do feel bad about her childhood and everything, but come on you have to play the cards you are dealt. I grew up in a drug infested environment, things weren't always great at home, and I stiil manage to keep my clothes on and my tongue in my mouth. She had and still has self esteem issues. I don't understand how any person with a drop of self respect could do the things she did. Also she loves everyone from Ja Rule to Fred Durst, now what in the hell does that say! It's just a shame that she continues to dedicate this book to her son when clearly she is out to make a buck just like she always has done. The beginning of the book she goes on to say she hopes one day her son reads this book, I hope the hell not for his sake and sanity he doesn't think to pick this book up! Karrine is not the only one to blame for this behavior, these men are gross. They have no moral or ethical values. Some of these people are married, which leaves me to beleive that Miss Steffans is putting their business out there like that because she is mad because no one wants her because she is used the hell up. They didn't want her then and they don't want her ass now! Karrine and her multiple sex partners are all pretty sad. I do feel bad for her son though, but she doesn't even care about him. Anytime you can leave your baby with a nanny you can't afford for months at a time and tell about it in a book, you are a piss poor MOMMY!

hi . I heard the interview on hot97 and i think it was bad on her part to come out and talk about her so called baby's daddy on the air but it was reallyphucked up when ma barker came out and started mentioning other people that had nothing to do with the conversation. I think she should have just kept it at being a conversation if any between her kool g rap and karrine. The world is a crazy place and it is full of pubilicity. and you also have to look at it from her ponit of veiw if everything in the book she said was true from begining you have to understand the hurt and pain that she has encountered thru life. true enough she dose have some major issuse that she needs to deal with and she should have also watched what she said to people that she thought where her friends but that still gave ma barker no reason to blast everyone like that. she may be a bad guy but if you read the book and everyone's name was camoflauged then she waws trying to a least have the decentsy not to expose anyone upfront. so personally i think the reason everything is all out of wack is because of ma barker and kool g rap.they were just as wrong as her and they came down to her level when they blabbed thier mouths too. Don't get me wrong I would not have done any of the things that she did because i was raped, abused, molested ect. but i just didn't let that get to me but everyone is not the same some people are stronger than other people and she may have been a weak person at the time by not controling her mind and letting the money make her instead of making the money.there are two sides to every story and i am pretty sure everyone is going to deny it but . people need to learn that is life and life goes on and if what you choose to do or be in life is what you really want nothing else matter. I think we need more people to be real with themselves and stop faking the funk.

When I started reading her book, I felt for her. I thought maybe she was a product of her upbringing and didn't know any better. As I continued through the entire thing and to the end; where she would say she wanted to change and needed God, and in the same paragraph talk of another man she phucked, I realized that she was still the same money hungry, self-pittying hoe she was in the beginning of the book. I feel sorry not for her, but for her son. The kid was left behind, tossed around; and, in a way, abused, while she ran around phucking,sucking, and leeching off big name celebrities. Karrine "Yizette Santiango" Steffans is a nobody in my book... even today.

It's obvious that the person who posted their remark on July 20th @ 3:21 has not read the book!!!! She is not trying to protect no one but PAPA!!! she names names and give out intimate secrets, dates and locations. There are unwritten rules in the game and she broke evey single one of them!!!Being a mother I can not see how she could dedicate this book to her son or even want him to read it, she's disgusting!!! she has no self respect and is a disgrace to any "decent woman" if you are going to play the game, play it to the fullest, whether you win or lose... just because you lost and didn't come up or shall I say was smart enough to save, invest, etc., now you want to put everybody's business out there, sorry sweet heart it doesn't work that way... if I was her I would stop the interviews and book signings and go into hiding somebody is going to get the last laugh and I seriosly doubt it will be her!!!! And to the guys she wrote about all ya'll slipp'n you call yourselves hustlers and playas but it looked like all ya'll got played, shame shame shame on you all. If I was married to any of you I would single and rich because now I have adultry in B&W you dumb azzes!!! If you cheat have some damn class damn ya'll playas it looks like you all ya'll got played... hmmmm should Puffy come out the closet....

I read the entire book from beginning to end. I really don’t feel she did anything wrong by putting it out there. Deep inside people wonder what really goes on behind the scenes of lavish Hollywood. She was just bold enough to un leash the secrets. Both the men and herself got even exchanges. I’m not saying I agree to what she did. However, everyone has a past. The question is did you learn from it? eventually her son was bound to find out. At least he heard it straight from the horses mouth. There wasn’t a way she could of written it taste full. They are sandals to begin with. But it goes down to the good old saying “ If a women sleeps around she’s a whore, but if a man does it’s ok”. She isn’t more guilty than the men.

I enjoyed the book start to finish. I don't disapprove of anything she has done, she made a living the best way she knew how. Who are we to try to judge her for what she has done. The only person she would have to answer to is the man upstair. We all have done things in our own lifes that society have disapproved but still we have managed to move on and do better.

Posted by: Alexia S. at July 21, 2005 9:00 PM

i haven't read her book yet,but i have heard and read some of her interviews,and im sorry to say she's just as bad as the men she slept with. she pretty much only wrote the book because she said her "friends" deserted her,and since they did that to her,she was going to get them where it hurts. no, i dont think she's the only hoe in her book,all the men that she slept with,are hoe's too. she claims she want to help young black girls, so they wont have to go through what she's gone through,is that just hype,or is she really going to help??? like with programs for teenage girls with low self-esteem,and,or, girls who become parents to soon,or put money into sex education programs and or donate money to AIDS research,or is she just blowing wind like she blow dicks!!! u decide

Superhead is no different from the rest of the industry hoes. She's just little smarter than the rest of them. Believe me there are industry hoes that get around more than she does. She just chose to run her mouth about it.

The bottom line is that she thought she was slick and thought she could throw the pussy around and get somewhere. But in the end, like most hoes, she just ended up being a hoe. But now she's just a hoe with a book.

In a funny way as far a pop culture goes her book helps hip hop as a whole. Every music genre has there groupie hoes (look at the RAY charles movie with Jamie Foxx)... Hip Hop is still growing and has yet to have the scandals that Rock n Roll has had. In the big picture it just makes people talk more about the culture... negative or positive. Hip Hop is a business and in this country you need publicity (negative or positive) to help market a business.

As for the people she mentioned... she didn't ruin their home life. Believe me... entertainment wives are used to it. She didn't put anything in the book the wives didn't already know.

I dig her encouragement of writing this book. She told it like it is. Also, who without sin cast the first stone. Everybody has a down fall rather you did it already or haven't but nobody is perfect. I just hope and pray she become a better mom and better herself as a young intelligent yound lady that she is.

Posted by: Kimber Parris at July 22, 2005 10:48 AM

I read the book, it was what it is. Hate it or love it, the s--t was pure her life story and if you involved your self in what was going on in her world obviously you cared to know. judgeing some one at face value is not real. This was her life and she lived it accoring to how she saw fit at that time. it is so many girls out there sucking and phuckin nobody's, stars, actors ect. and not being called out for it. you can't knock the hustle expecially if ain't lived it. Nobody here not even karrine is saying she was right for anything that she did, but her lil man can't eat no books. It's seen everyday in these street's how these women is exploited in video's and songs callin us bitches and hoes and we sopport that kind of exposure. but soon as someone comes out with whats really going down behind clothes doors every body got something harsh to say, cause they use to fabrication. I beleive it was a lack of self esteem somewhere, she was missing some kind of love and affection and wasen;t getting it so she turned to what SHE thought was love. i have yet to see some one make it they mission to holla at a broke ass nigga, its a price you play to floss in that world and her mind was focused in the right direction but her weak emotions got the best of her she got caught up in the game when she could have used it to her advantage if she felt worthy of herself. How man nigga's out here beatingf women ass and they still there "for the kids", everybody got issues we all human how you handle yours depends on however you built. I commend her for getting her grind on, who ever mad now was not mad when she was pleasing them so she flipped and got her money on because she knew millions of women is caught up in the glitz and glamour of the video's. you see it everyday, and if you din't buy the book because you have been following karrine Steffans and who she was, then you bought cause you wanted to know who she was puttin on blast so either way you fell for her hustle, and opinion is like a asshole everybody got one. She just decide to make this thing work for her, cause when she was shaking her ass in they video's and they was flaunting and useing her as a show piece she was making it work for them, so evertbody got they time to shine and hers just happen to be now. ITS KARMA BABY!

I loved her book,and I could not put it down. It sparked my interest because it dealt with something we as human beings rarely deal with..REALITY!! I needed to read something real..and she did that!! I think everybody makes mistakes and we as humans are not in any kind of position to judge anybody but ourselves. How can any of you judge her relatonship with her son like you know her..cuz yo don't..the love between a mothe rand child is just that between them. She was bold enough to tell her story and I give her high props for that. She did what she had to do to make it and hell she did ..How many of you judgemental assholes can say that. while she is banking off of reality..most of us common folks still stuck at home being BROKE!!Don't hate the playa hate the game babies!!!It's a cold world and she's letting people know that through her story...So I looked at it as fuck hollywood...it's all fake. I lost a lot of disrepect for the married, engaged, or questionable sex life of many of today's stars.I say Go Ahead Karrine for keeping it real.Something half of hollywood can't and won't do....:((((

Posted by: Miss Amil$$ at July 22, 2005 4:26 PM

I read the book and what can you say? Karrine is about money and power and the sad part is her life wasn't worth it? I think the book has some good qualities such as helping these young girls see that that lifestyle doesn't mean anything. You are used, abused, and thrown to the side. Like she said, when she was phucking and sucking them; they would give her money and anything else. When her and her son was on the street and had nowhere to go; they were nowhere to be found. In life, you either play the game or ignore it. Only the strong survive but nobody is strong enough to survive without wounds. At the end of the day, Karrine sits by herself with her son not knowing who she can trust and who she can't. And that is truly sad..............

Posted by: Tanisha at July 22, 2005 4:56 PM

I just finished reading Karrine book. As a mother, aunt, friend, and teacher; I see many "Karrines" as early as 3rd grade wanting to be a glamorous "video girl" where they equate worth with materialistic riches and a nice body rather than inner wealth. Karrine was abused over and over again, but everyone who wants to judge her fails to acknowledge that. To me, she shut down and survived the best way she could. The apple didn't fall far from the tree. She may have actually been a gifted child. After being taken from the loving and supportive environment that her grandmother provided, her gifts and lifestyle was destructive to herself and later her son. Karrine, you need to make a movie because those young girls who need to hear about your life are more prone not to read. To the many "non-sinners" who are quick to criticize and ostacize, I have a thought for you. If you are not being proactive helping to eliminate the numerous problems that exist in the black community such as AIDs, "accepted" statutory rape (old men and women messing with young, immature minds), disrespect and destruction of our children and elderly, and our numerous children in foster care; sweep around your own front door before sweeping around Karrine's. Stay strong "Ms. Stephens", because God didn't look down on the women with the issue of blood and he is not looking down on you either! He won't put more on you than you can handle; and even when biblically instructed to lay your burdens down, move on, and forget; mankind will continually make you remember and regret. Thanks for giving me a book to share with other young girls and my sons (because boys also need to get an example of how not to treat women when they "arrive"). People attend church to testify all the time and your book is your testimony. It, however, will touch generations for many decades.

Posted by: Appreciative at July 23, 2005 5:33 PM

I just read the book and immediately went online to see how others feel about her tell all. I personally couldn't put the book down. I'm still not sure if she's sincere or not in her plight to change her life but one thing is for sure...given any opportunity for us to sleep with a celebrity, I think most of us would jump at the chance, money or not.
It's easy to judge her but many of us don't realize that these celebrities have a star quality about them and many are star struck just being their presence. I can't say that I agree with her decisions but I don't fault her either. I just pray for her safety and her future success. I hope that young ladies take the positive message out of this book and not the negative. Treat your body like a temple and love God first.

this book is a piece of shit, i'm a superhead but you dont see me writing books and shit.... but i wanna fuck her though that bitch makes me wanna take her in the back room and fuck the shit out of her

Posted by: unknown to ya at July 23, 2005 11:10 PM

I'm not mad at her and I haven't read the book!
She did the right thing she told her story and the MEN should have never been in bed with her in the 1st place . STOP SLEEPING WITH EVERY PU$$Y learn how to keep your dick in your boxers. I hope they learn from this and they keep it where it belongs. These other girls need to stop sleeping with other people's husbands and keep their legs close.

Posted by: Kay Kay Kay at July 24, 2005 4:36 PM

I'm still trippin because she said JA Rule was beautiful. I guess the weed and XTC must have messed her up. Who in their right mind thinks JA Rule is beautiful. He looks like a mouse. And She looks worn out terribly. You can see the sin and indiscression in her face. How sad.

Posted by: Nancy at July 24, 2005 8:12 PM

I'm almost done reading the book and it was a trip. Stars are just people and regular people do some of the stuff she talked about, just not to the extreme level she's talking. I just pray that some of those wives don't hunt her down. I feel sorry for her son because that's a wild ride she took him through. Hopefully she will disappear with her money and stay away from the sex and drug crazed people she knows.

Posted by: Dogteam at July 25, 2005 1:09 AM

I read the book just to see if any mention of me was in it. Me and my man ran the train on her for $150 bucks backstage at the Roc the Mic tour in Detroit. The head was super but everybody knew how low shed go way b4 the book came out. We had her mixin lean with Hpnotiq and when she passed out we stole our money back and bounced!

Posted by: Cant Tell U at July 25, 2005 9:05 AM

I listened to the audio version of the book and I thought it was really interesting. I also read the comments from the other people above. The "I would nevers, and the I could nevers," you people need to get off your high horses and stop judging her. We all have done stuff that we are not particularly proud of. She just was smart enough to capitalize off of it. In her book, she doesn't glamorize or downplay what she went through. It's just that "what she went through." And how she still came out better and stronger. As far as critizing her as a mother, she is still human. I can tell she loves her son, in my eyes, she dedicates the book to her son not for people to see her life as dirty, nasty or slutty, but to let people know that through her mistakes and experiences, her son was her motivation to get her life together. No matter if your living right or wrong and you have kids, they are your motivation. You want to get your shit together so you can show them something better. Karrin, I aplaud you if you ever happen to read this comment. Take the negative comments and strive on them to continue to better yourself. No one is perfect, we all have done some dirt. People, don't judge this woman, if you have done your share of not so great stuff in your life. Basicly, STOP HATING!

i want some "superhead" too, yo. Chuck, whenever u see shortie again u tell i said holla at the god, naw mean? One.

Posted by: D. Nero a.k.a Da Bizniz at July 25, 2005 12:55 PM

karrine is that bitch right now hate it or love it the underdogs on top. I see nobody ran to court yet? That's cause its official, shory had to do what she had to do. she gave the streets exactly what they wanted. Cause no one has yetmentioned anything beside the fact of who she slept with, And the book was far beyond that. Man yall better wake the hell up and get ya face out the magazine, cause the way shit going these days dont be suprised if its ya daughter that gets caugt up. A entertainer is just that, Some one wit a 9-5 that pays more than your does. These people are human dont get it twisted, it not like they do shit that's never been done. These broads out here dont see them dudes, they wanna phuck they car or they wallet. Karrine not the first and im sure wont be the last. She getting paid off of what she doing and you can't knock the hustle. 80 percent of peole are with someone for what they got. If a dude come down the street in a busted ass whip i dont see hoes running up to they car trying to get to know him better. And you men should feel like real ass holes cause all you do is go out and live beyond your means so you can stunt and trick off dough on chicks like karrine. Real is real and that life she lead is reality, now she can sit back off these millions she about to get and raise her son and give him the world off her struggles. While kool g rap keep dream chasing and ja continue to fall off and everybody else that treated her like shit when the phuckin stopped. like desi said its full circle.

Who does " super Head" name in her books

Posted by: sexyred at July 25, 2005 5:32 PM

I think that the book is good. Whether the book is some form of therapy for Karrine or just a way to get more money- more power to her! I am all for women doing what they want and to get money is even better- why not? Men can sleep around and its all good. There are a lot of not just video hoes but hoes in general, but at least she got paid and she is still gettin' how she live. I am sorry- anyone in her position would at least consider doing what she did. Why knock her- i would have done it too, but only I hope I'd of stayed away from the drug use. People can not say what they will or won't do- you never know what direction you will go in life. Things change- nothing happens out of order in life. I wish I could be in videos and meet big celebs, you only life once. There are a lot of women who fuck for free everyday. There are also a lot of women getting pimped everyday There are women who have one night stands, there are women being cheated on or abused by their man everyday- why not take control of your own mind and body? Karrie simply grabbed life by the horns and rode it!!

Posted by: SassyBell1 at July 25, 2005 6:10 PM

Another point that needs to be made is- Karrine did not force theses married men to fuck her either- what is everyone blaming her. They knew they were married or in relationships- if they do not want to get wrote about they should not do it. If they do not want their wives and shit to find out they should not do it--- They have a choice and a responsibility more than her, because SHE DID NOT MAKE A COMMITMENT TO THESE WOMEN the MEN did!! And if they want to give money and shit for sex if she did not take it some other video hoe would- so she probably looked at itlike why not me? If I am in a relationship it goes the same if i am cheated on- honestly we should try to whoop the man first of all not the other woman!!! Did people ever think that what is the common demoniantor linking me to this other woman??? THE MAN!! the "other" woman is probably not very different than u- she probably has a lot in common with u- she could be yoyu cousin, aunt, sister, even mother- because like you that is what she is to someone else and u hate her because your man is a hoe? Think about it.

Posted by: Sassybell1 at July 25, 2005 6:19 PM

I read the book last night and listened to the interview this morning and the bottom line is that she is just disgusting. How can you continue to allow these men to totally disrespect you in every way humanly possible, but on the other hand act as though nothing is wrong. She has a problem and needs some serious conseling before she endangers her child any more than she already has. It was so disrespectful as a mother to dedicate a book of that nature to her son. I just wanna say god bless her and I hope her son really does not resent her when he grows up. Who wants to be the son of SUPERHEAD?

Posted by: Adore at July 26, 2005 9:08 AM

I haven't read the book yet, but I've gotten the jist of what's in it. Everybody's so quick to past judgement and comments on this girl. I wonder is she was white would the comments be different. People fail to realize that WHITE WOMEN DO WHAT SHE has done EVERYDAY, AND NOBODY SAYS ANYTHING.

Posted by: Tanya at July 26, 2005 5:09 PM

White women have been doing what Karrine has done for years, and nobody seems to disrespect them. Look at Marilyn Monroe she was the biggest whore out, and people glorified her.

Posted by: Michelle at July 26, 2005 11:02 PM

I JUST GOT FINISHED READING THE BOOK AND I THINK HER STORY IS VERY SAD. EVERYONE IS CALLING HER A HOE BUT WHAT ABOUT THE PEOPLE SHE SLEPT WITH?? THEY WERE EITHER MARRIED OR IN A LONG TIME RELATIONSHIP. I THINK HER BOOK IS LETTING YOUNG GIRLS REALIZE THAT THE HIP HOP SCENE IS NOT ALL WHAT IT APPEARS AND ALL OF THOSE PEOPLE YOU THINK ARE YOUR FRIENDS THEY ARE NOT!! I WISH HER AND HER SON THE BEST OF LUCK.

Posted by: SHAMEAKA at July 27, 2005 9:42 AM

I have one word for Ms. Steffans. THERAPY!!
And more therapy...She talks about the writing being her therapy and so forth. I don't think she will be healed of her addiction to sex, drugs, men and money until she speaks to professionals who carry initials behind their names. MD, PHD, etc. Like any other addiction you have to get help to get past it. I can't take her seriously as a writer, because after reading this book, I realize she's NOT a professional. Not trying to hate on the girl but PLEASE. C'mon this was just a way to make money off of the public's insatiable need for gossip. Me included, we all want to know what life is like for the celebs. Unfortunately, she didn't paint a pretty picture. I feel sorry for them all. Quality of life sems scarce.The money is nice but selling your soul for the cause, that's just sad.

Posted by: pnutbutter at July 27, 2005 9:53 AM

I just finished the book. Once I started reading it I could not put it down. There are alot of Yizette's in the hood who don't have the big names to write about. What makes her story so capitivating is that we can all relate her story to someone we know. And most of them end up the same way busted and used. I say BIG UPS to her for being smart enough to write a book and continue to make money from her hoein'. After I finished the book, I searched the web to see what the buzz about her was. Whats up with Kool G Rap and his chick bustin' on Meth and Big Tigger? Did I miss something?

Posted by: teetee at July 27, 2005 12:17 PM

I felt very sorry for superhead when I finished reding her book. I dont blame her as much for her past I think you would have to look back at her like to judge her she never had anyone to talk to her about sex all she really had was her grandmother and not even for long her mother was doing her thang and she didint have her father for long so you really vant blame the girl its like having a baby and expecting the baby to learn thing on its own the outcome isant going to be good and look at hers she had no one so I think people need to stop passing judgement because I'm sure that their are many people who has probably done thing that they aint proud of shit everyone done had them some sex nd some freaky sex too so let the girl live I'm sure most girls have A STORY TO TELL!

Posted by: Maurice at July 27, 2005 7:20 PM

I think that people need to leave her alone so what she did this with this man and the next that was her past and I think that she has changed I'm sure that many people arent happy about their past hell everyone has done something maby not as much but we have done something and I dont know why these wife's are tripping on her o.k she was with yall man's but ya need to leave they sorry nasty asses because I'm sure that she aint the only one that got some yall aint around them 24/7 they're men just doing what men do ya aint mad when ya spending they money ya need to come to reality and leave they asses or if not that make them get tested before ya catch something!

Posted by: MELISA at July 27, 2005 7:31 PM

I liked the book it was hard for me to put it down but I think that people need to stop talking about her she even said that she wasant proud of her past and I'm sure everyone has done something that they aint proud of people shouldint pass judgement and I feel sorry for tiger that was scandalous on ma barkers part superhead didint put it in her book so it wasant her business to put it out their I heard the interview so if tiger is mad than be mad at ma no disrespect or anything but that was a little tooooo much I think you done messed up his career

I kinda feel sorry for her at times.One interview she's being positive and the next she's letting people call her that awful nickname and telling details about the people she's been with.Now I haven't heard all of her interviews,but I heard one where she was arguing with someone and then walked out of the studio.

I think she really wants to go in the right direction,but she's still lost.I don't have a problem with her writing a book and telling the truth.I haven't read it,but some of these guys need to be ousted because they were cheating on their wives and girlfriends.This is what goes on everyday in the music industry and celebrity life.They use these women that they have in their videos and these little girls who want to be famous.Sadly,these women let them do it just like Karrine did.

Karrine still has some work she needs to do on herself.I'm not complete convinced that she has fully changed but, that takes time.
you know what...I don't need to be convinced because she has to work out her issues with God.He's the only one that matters.

I see little girls all the time as young as 10 that want to be video girls because they think it's glamorous and they end up going down the wrong road and let me tell ya alot of these rappers could care less about these girls.I remember one video girl said she was 17 in a video where this grown rapper was all up on her in a video.17?where were her parents?Then we have little girls like Terria Marie saying she want's a man to touch her and make her feel good.how old is she 17?and they have little 13 and 14 year olds who sing along to songs like this and think it's cute.

Tyler Perry(Madea's family reunion)had a play where one of the characters daughters was on drugs and had a baby and she tried to sleep with her sister's husband and she was sexually abused by her father.(that was the one of the stories in the play)after the play Tyler explained all the different characters stories and he said when you see someone who's troubled like this ....don't give up on them because there's always a story behind their behavior.

Some of you on here need to stop trying to talk about oh she slept with all these celebrites who were married.....hey it takes 2 to tango.They didn't have to cheat,but they did.The fact is there are alot of women out there who are just like her.they used her and threw her out and sadly she let them use her over and over.

I hope she tries to really get on the right path.I hope this interview was just talk.I hope she did not only write this book to make money.I hope she really wanted to help somebody.

I CAN ONLY SAY KARRINE JUST PUT IT OUTTHERE. EVERYONE ALREADY KNEW THE GAME THEY JUST DIDN,T WANT TO BE EXPOSE. BUT I MUST STAND UP AND GIVE THE GIRL A HAND,,,,,,,,, MAYBE IF THESE SO CALL RICH AS HELL NIGGER OR WHATEVER YOU WHAT TO BE CALL CAN TAKE A GOOD LOOK AT WHAT YOU CAN DO SOME WEAK YOUNGLADY, MAY START TO THINK ABOUT YOUR DAUGHTERS, MOTHERS AND MAYBE SO GRANDMOTHERS AND LEARN HOW TO GET BACK TO THE BASIC, THAT, THE REASON YOU SAY YOU DON,T IF A WOMAN LOVE YOU FOR YOU ARE THE MONEY.WELL HELL YOU ARE RUINING THE SWEET YOUNGLADYS YOURSELF. ASK YOUR PRECIOUS DAUGHTER TO DO A VIDEO.IDON.T THINK SO. WELL WE LOVE TO SEE WHAT,S NEXT, YOU GO GIRL

Okay so I read the book in one day because I was curious to see what all the fuss was about...and who in the hell was this chick??!! In the beginning I felt sorry for her, being abused by her mother constantly and rape etc etc.... THEN....she goes from being abused by others to self-abuse....and finally saying that she has "learned" and she is in the process of self-recovery. However in the book....the last chapter she says that she still have her lovers and the fling with Usher was just last December!! I don't understand what exactly did she learn and if she is still getting around, how did she change? I don't know...I listened to two different interviews one with Chuck D which she explained how the book was to advise young girls that what they see on tv isn't what it's all cracked up to be. Then on Hot97 she was confronted about Kool G Rap and his wife about the details in the book and it was too much for her to handle so she tried to leave. She can't run from what she put out there. When you put your business out there....this is what you get. If she is denying her daughter...shame on her! And I cannot believe she had the nerve to put her son's picture in the book....what a disgrace!!! I don't feel sorry for her....I can't bring myself to feel sorry for her. She is doing everything for money...exposing herself for money....so instead of being a regular sleep around hoe....now she is a media whore. She's in a relationship with Bill Maher now and now she is in "love" or whatever. I still don't believe she has self love, so until then she will never be able to love ANYONE.

I read the book in 2 days. I do feel sorry for her upbringing. I am not surprised on how the industry handled her, but I am surprised how she would let one man hand her over to another man and accept it. Celebrities wives stay with these men regardless. I don't understand why, because you have to be with them to get the money. What confuses me is how Karrine says there was always a condom, but there were times she woke up naked from previous while night. If she couldn't remember, how could she remember if there was a condom each and every time. I am not to judge anyone, because that is what God is there for. I just pray that she doesn't fall into a slump again and resort to that lifestyle again.

Posted by: nikki at July 29, 2005 2:35 PM

I didn't read the book and I probably won't. I have to admit to being a bit curious. However based on the comments of some of the ignorant men, I think its trash and I won't pick it up.

I am very concerned with the derogatory comments made about Ms. Stephens and the men she has been with in the Idustry. NO ONE has once mentioned the possibility of these people possibly contracting something that penicillin can't cure. I am very dissapointed in the lack of good judgement from all parties involved. Please understand your money will not buy your way out of the grave you are digging for your selves. As a race we need to wake up and understand the seriousness of these DANGEROUS practices. I am a graduate of an HBCU where AIDS was very prevelant on our campus due to these same practices. PLEASE WAKE UP!!!!!

I read the book and thought that it was not the best book but just that it was just a good story. I feel as though she made some serious mistakes that she had to and still is paying for. but it is her life. I would never knock what she did because if you think about it the people that are talking bad about her are getting hustled themselves because they went out and bought the book, which is giving her more money. Also, i do feel sorry for her son because he will probably be tormented for his mother's reputation. and as far as her interview on hot97 went i dont think that she handled herself well enough because if she is trying to move she would not have allowed them to call her those names and embarrass her like that, she could have stood up for herself better than what she did to prove that she has really changed and not the same gullible lost chick. and as for puffy, i knew something FUNNY with him she just made it all crystal clear

Kudos to Karrine.I thought the book was long over-do. It's about time someone stepped up to the plate and let everyone see what goes on in this world that our children idolize & want to be a part of. I don't understand why people are hatin & said she broke the "code". We need to stop sugar-coating reality & speak the truth. Some of these celebrity wives need to write a book about how they are being abused. Some of us got mad at Bill Cosby too, didn't we?

Posted by: ATL at July 30, 2005 6:41 PM

when i started reading the book, i felt kind of sad about her being raped and abused at such a young age. than after i started to get really into the book, i started to get really disgusted with how she handled every situation. being a person of only sixteen, i have more respect and control for myself than she every had. she states how she cares about her son, but she mades it clear that she didn't give a rat butt about him every time she left him behind for the nanny to basically raise him. I give her credit for leaving her abusive husband in a attempt to save her son, but why go back and let your son stay with his abusive father, after he stated that he was jealous of your son. He may be the boys father, but remember he did abuse you. I personally think that she brought all this on herself. she had a good thing at her dad's house, but she had to just get away, what a idiot. And after receiving all that money from pleasing all those famous people, i would be putting some away for my son, and not thinking about who am going screw next. I really hope those people she talked about in the book has something to say, i bet when they do say something about the book, i bet she'll shut her big mouth. I thought her mother told her not to tell people's business, i guess she hasn't learned her lesson. like someone once told me, "some people just have to learn it the hard way"

Posted by: Ashley at July 30, 2005 11:28 PM

I would like to commend her for coming out with this book. It took real courage. I am quite sure that she is not alone in sleeping with all the celebrity men. As a mother myself, I found it astounding that it took her that long to change her behaviors. I really hope that she goes into therapy and deal with all the issues of her childhood and young adulthood. I am really sadddend that so many young women look at these videos and that's who they aspire to become. I am sure that if this girl had her education and could have fen for herself in more respectable manner she would have lived a better life, become a better mother and would not have to chase after these men. By the way Who the hell is "Papa"

Posted by: Tanishia at July 31, 2005 12:19 AM

this book was a very interesting book im 17 years old and i look at music videos like i wanna be in one and i used to tell people im gone be in a video to me i thought it was fun now that i have read her book i kind of have a different out look on being in a music video i kind of still wanna be in a music video but not how i expected before i dont wanna be just a video groupie shaking my but in a music video and having the rappers stand there and call the girl hoes while they are standing there if im in a music video it will be for alll the right reasons maybe even a positive song and i relize all the struggle that she had to go through to stay on top and raise a son that she claim she has no help with i was going crazy when she mentioned all the guys she slept with i shocked when she mentioned people i would never imagine would do such a thing and most of them where married i just read an article from kool g rap and he said most of her things she was saying where lies and that she said these things so that she can get back at the people who where not giving what she wanted and he said he was always in her childs life and that nobody wanted to bothered with her and that what she mentioned in the book about to jail when she broke a glass was a lie she went to jail because she was prostituting and got caught i dont knowif all of this is true or not but she had a great story and i learned a lot from her and i think papa was method man i got this from the article i read

I BELIEVE SHE IS DOING THE RIGHT THING. Karrine If ur reading this dont listen to the BULLshyt most of these people are talkin. Most people have had the same type of lifestyle and just trying to single u out because they couldnt write a book. I thought I had heard some tragic life stories and yours to me Has been the worse. I am young but i truly understand why you would want his out. Harboring a long time secret is no fun. THESE CELEBRITIES ARE NO SAINTS. THESE FUCKERS OUT THERE KNEW EXACTLY WHAT THEY WERE DOING. MANY HAD WIVES AND GUESS WHAT DID IT ANYWAY. YOUR HUSBAND COULD BE OUT RIGHT NOW DOING THE SAME THING. AND IF U PAYED A CLOSE ENOUGH ATTENTION TO THIS BOOK TO YOUR OWN LIFE MAYBE YOU WOULD REALIZE IT. EVEN THOUGH HE SLEPT AROUND AND DID THINGS MOST WOULDNT DO DOES NOT GIVE THESE MEN ANYTIME OF PERMISSION TO DO THE SHYT THEY DID. HONESTLY ALL THESE CELEBRITIES NEED TO COME OUT INTO THE LIGHT. I WAS NOT SURPISED BY ANY OF THEM MYSELF.. MAYBE SHAQ BUT MEN ARE MEN. I AM APPAULED AT YOU ALL. AND SO WHAT IF U SHE WANTED TO MAKE A BUCK DONT HATE THE PLAYA HATE THE GAME CUZ U AINT WRITIN NO BOOK. MORE POWER TO YOU KARRINE I HOPE YOU HAVE A GREAT LIFE AND CONTROL YOUR WILLPOWER.

It's funny that one is quick to call her a whore...what about all of the married men who are in commited relationships and have screwed her and every other woman on the block. What does that make them!!!!!! I hope this book show how much of a whore they are.

Posted by: Ariellex at July 31, 2005 10:57 PM

There are many that call her superhead, Karrine, hoe, or what ever have you. But just as many turn there backs to this image, God still loves her. The most that one could do for her is to pray for her, because only God can make her see that what she is doing is wrong

Posted by: okachi at August 1, 2005 11:01 AM

i read the book and i enjoyed it. i my opinion if all of these rappers didnt want their shyt to be put on blast then they should not have been acting and carrying on in the way that they did. especially if they r married and have children. i actually feel that she is a strong person bc she was able to write this book even though she knew she would get shyt for it. i am not sayin i think she is a good person for all the things she has done. but then again she is human and we do make mistakes. she did what had to to survive and im sure if many other people were in that same position they would do it too.

I READ THE BOOK AND I FEEL U HAVE TO LOVE YOUR SELF FIRST. I DON'T THINK BAD OF HER I JUST HOPE SHE BE ALRIGHT, BECAUSE HIP-HOP IDUSTRY CAN BE VERY VERY DANGEROUS,BECAUSE THESE GUYS HAVE WIFES AND GIRLFREINDS AND IMAGES AND DON'T WANT THERE DICKS IN THE STREETS,BUT I DON'T BLAME KARRINE I BLAM THEM, CAUSE IF U DON'T WANT YOUR DICK IN THE STREET U KEEP THAT SHIT IN YOUR PANTS!!!!!!!!

if u ask me that bitch karrine stephens is a fucking slut.I mean come on every fucking celebrity that comes her way shes opens her legs up to. I mean if there were a award ceremony for sluts the host would say "and the award for slut of the year goes to karrine stephens ladies and gentlemen give around of applause to her thats her fifth year in a row

Posted by: marc at August 1, 2005 4:54 PM

I think that Ms. Karrine is definately pulling a publicity stunt. Shes old now and washed away in the minds of most people that she surronds herself with. Butit is not too late for her to take a different route with her life. As I read the book I felt sorry for her and what she encountered in her life, for a moment I even empathized with her life but as I continued to read, I saw that she did not care about herself or her son. The things she did where stupid and very insane. It seems that she continued to hit rock bottom over and over again and then when she was finally back on her feet she went back into her same crazy ways. Karrine needs special psychological help. Sure I feel sorry for her childhood but that should have been her motivation to make something better of herself. If that wasn't enough you would think her son would have been enough to change her ignorant ways.She is not the first or the last child to be raised in a dysfunctional family. Now she has passed to torch of a trouble past on to her son because now he will have a story just like she has. She definately need to check herself really quick because if she hasn't realized it yet, her life will continue to be a cycle of kaos and confusion.

This is an editorial by Lloyd Williams NY Metro 8/2/05...Something 4 u guys to think about...
A few years ago, I conducted an interview with Karrine Steffans, a gangsta’ rap video dancer who was then making her motion picture debut as the wife of Larenz Tate in “A Man Apart,” a picture starring Vin Diesel. I distinctly
remember hitting a brick wall when asking this
attractive West Indian actress what it was like rubbing shoulders with all the celebrities whose names she kept dropping during our amiable tete-a-tete. Back then, the recently-divorced beauty, who described herself as “a housewife and a mom,” didn’t have a bad word to say about anybody, though she did issue this strong warning for females contemplating show biz: “I
wouldn’t want girls, young mothers, especially African-American and Latino, to think they can just move to Hollywood, walk into a party, and meet someone who’s going to change their lives. Vulnerability and naïvete will get you lost in L.A.” Now Karrine has belatedly come clean, writing a best-selling book, half tell-all, half-cautionary tale, in which she recounts a selfdestructive path marked by adultery, rape, alcohol, drugs and physical abuse, all by age 25. In this eye-openingmemoir, she confesses to exchangingsexual favors for the attention of her adored icons, thus behaving inreal life like the same man-pleasing character she portrayed in rap videos.
What more proof does anybody need that hip-hop is dead, at least as anything more meaningful than a fashion statement or an attitude? This
is sad, since this ’hood-based genre
originally started out as an evocative
style of self-expression invented by some rather resourceful kids. They had simply seized on readily-available tools found around the ghetto exoskeleton to make heartfelt musical statements about the human condition.
Eventually, the previously political brand of music succumbed to corporate pressures to eliminate any edgy political overtones in favor of that all too familiar capitalist
formula: sex and violence. Odes which addressed sociallysignificant themes were replaced by others evidencing an insatiable appetite for conspicuous consumerism, the cornerstone
of American culture. Granted, gangsta’ rap has proven to be the ticket to wealth and fame for a host of entertainers who have gone
on to buy lavish cribs and become household names. And some have also begun to parlay their success into clothing lines or secondary careers in movies or on TV. But, otherwise, the morally-bankrupt music has done precious little to alleviate the plight of the poor folk it
professes to speak for, except to suggest that they are depraved, dangerous and generally deserving of their lousy lot in life. Rap is obviously obsolete when its purveyors
no longer represent the voice of the community but have willingly joined the ranks of the exploiter class.Lke the beatniks of the ’50s and the hippies of the’60s, the hip-hop generation started out as a counter-cultural rebellion which questioned the status quo. Rap, too, has oulived its relevance, primarily because its most famous proponents have sold out rather than continue
to challenge the establishment.

Posted by: babbe at August 2, 2005 9:34 AM

It is all sad.
The vulgar comments posted about this woman are sad.
The life this woman has led is sad.
The fact that so many people have a lack of willpower when it comes to carnal pleasure is sad.
The fact that people feel the need to judge this woman is sad.
The fact that there are numerous men and women in her same condition is sad.

When will we all realize how temporary and empty casual sex is?

I DO BELIEVE SHE IS TRYING TO SHOW YOUNG GIRLS, THAT THEY DONT HAVE TO SELL THERE BODY. AND YES SHE SHOWS HOW NO ONE HELPED HER WHEN SHE REALLY NEEDED THEM. BUT THATS A LESSON IN ITSELF TO. HOW PEOPLE WILL USE YOU WHEN IT BENEFITS THEM, BUT WHEN U REALLY NEED THEM, THEY DONT CARE ABOUT YOU. YOU GO GIRL!!! I LOVE YOUR BOOK...

Posted by: Ashlie McRae at August 2, 2005 8:26 PM

Hey, I must say, the book was very good. It was a good read because everyone she screwed was a celeb and we knew them. I couldn't put the book down to see who was next. Damn, nasty itch. The good thing about reading someone's life story is that the ending is what make's it sweet. It's still salty. You can't put the book down and cry and say WOW,she wen't through a lot and now she's changed her ways. I don't see what lesson she's trying to teach young ladies. It seems like she's still has plenty of lessons to learn herself. She never mentioned that she was now drug free, _ick free, etc. She seems to be some snake looking for scandal, well she chose the right way, because it's all gonna catch up with her. Intentions mean a lot, I don't think she had good ones.

she is officially a slut... a porno with mr marcus. she is not a victim but a playa and anyone who bought the book and kept it after reading it is a sucka!!!

Posted by: loudawg at August 2, 2005 11:57 PM

THIS BOOK IS BRILLIANT, BRAVE AND EVERY CHAPTER IS MORE CAPTIVATING THAN THE NEXT. KARRINE IS A VERY SMART, ARTICULATE AND BRAVE PERSON. THERE IS NOTHING ABOUT THIS BOOK THAT IS "BASHING". EARLY ABUSE IS KNOWN TO RELISH UNCANNY BEHAVIOR IN ADULT LIFE, BUT PLEASE UNDERSTAND THAT GOD GIVES EVERYONE "A PURPOSE DRIVEN LIFE", WHERE WOULD ANY OF US BE IF GOD DIDN'T HAVE A PLAN FOR US........THINK ABOUT IT, GO BACK AND READ THE BIBLE ABOUT THE "WILD CHILD'S" IN THE BIBLE THAT GOD USED TO SERVE HIS PURPOSE AND GLORIFY HIM AND THEN COME BACK AND RE-POST YOUR COMMENT ON HER BOOK. YOUR WAY OF THINKING "WILL" BE DIFFERENT.

Posted by: REESA at August 3, 2005 10:32 AM

The book was okay but there was a lot she wasn't saying which led me to believe if this book is supposed to be "tell all" why were so many things so vague. She would begin explaining one issue and leave it alone to jump to another point. The book was not well written but it had good points. I think that she is still very confused. She says the books was to show young girls you don't have to live like this but in her Epilogue she says that she is still involved in the business and celebrities. I think the sole purpose for this book was attention that she was sekking because she is not the hot item she says she once was.

Posted by: dultimate at August 3, 2005 7:31 PM

She played a game just not wise enough. Wise enough to take the money but not wise enough to keep it. I've read this book though and whether she's sincere or not this book will serve a good purpose to those who read it, especially young women. I too have been in mentally abusive situations as early as 16 yrs old.I've had a man who's a drug-lord that has controlled me,beggin me to call him Daddy very similar to the behavior displayed by Kool-G-Rap in her book.This same man has sold drugs to both of my parents.If only I had more understanding and more respect for myself-not to mention his wife at the time-I chose a different route.God am i glad that my life didn't end up that way. Unfortunately many young women acquire a taste for this lifestyle but once in it,sometimes there's no coming back. She's still hustling, maybe even washed up but there's a bigger picture...bigger than her being a slut or a ho...bigger than the criticicm that she receives ....The black community is struggling and will continue to struggle. There's a better way..

FIRST LET START BY SAYING ALL YOU SO CALLED WOMEN AND MEN IN THIS WORLD NEED TRO WAKE UP AND SMELL THE DIRT (GRAVES)U STUPID MOTHERPHUCKERS, YOUR UNBRINGING ULTIMATELY DICTATES WHO YOU WILL BE, SOME OF US ARE STRONG ENOUGH TO SUCCEED AND SOME OF US ARE JUST LUCKY ENOUGH TO HAVE A CHILDHOOD THAT GIVES US THE LOVE AND ATTENTION THAT WE AS CHILDREN SHOULD HAVE, BUT FOR THOSE WHO ARE NOT KEEP YOUR HEAD UP AND LOVE YOURSELF WHEN NO ONE SEEMS TO LOVE YOU, I FEEL THAT KARRINE DID WHAT SHE DID OUT OF LOW SELF ESTEEM, NO LOVE FOR SELF, AND SEEMING NO WAY OUT, THE MEN WHO PHUCKED HER NEED TO BE ASHAMED OF THEMSELVES BECAUSE IM SURE IF THEY EVER KNEW WHAT SOME OF THEIR MOTHERS HAD TO DO SOMETIMES TO SURVIVE THEY WOULD BE LITERALLY SICK, BUT THEY GO AND DO THIS TO SOMEONE ELSES MOTHER, THEY SHOULD HAVE TRIED TO HELP HER THE BEST WAY THEY COULD, I HOPE ALL OF THEM CONTRACT AIDS AND DIE FOR BEING STUPID NASTY BASTARDS AND THE ONES WITH WIVES THEY SHOULD STICK THEM FOR ALL OF THAT PAPER THAT SEEMS TO MAKE THEM FEEL UNTOUCHABLE AND SELF RIGHTEOUS, I FIND THAT NO STAR, SINGER, RAPPER OR JUST PLAIN OLD ENTERTAINER IS ABOVE ANYONE THEY JUST CAUGHT A LUCKY BREAK AND MADE SOME MONEY, AND FOR THOSE SUPERSTARS SUCH AS THE ONES NAMED IN THE BOOK UPLIFT OUR BLACK WOMEN NOT BREAK THEM DOWN FOR SHO KNOWS ONE DAY THAT MAY BE YOUR DAUGHTER WITH NO WAY OUT, MONEY COMETH AND MONEY GOETH!!!!!!

Well,well,well like a few i have not read the book but i would have to agree in saying her only fault that really damaged her is exposing her son. that i do not agree with and to sum it up she has gotten into alot of SHIT that she needs to get out of i'm praying she does soon!!!

People please... If u haven't read the book u shouldn't be posting a comment. Secondly, Ya'll just like me, don't know none of these people and ain't on no one on one level with them so stop taking things personally. The girl obviously had a story to tell and in the end there's her side, these men sides and the truth that only God knows. If you believe her believe her if u don't u don't. My personal opinion... I don't swallo everything as gospel but i do believe where there's smoke there's fire cuz NO WOMAN would EVER degrade herself in that matter and paint herself in that negative way unless some of what she states is true. How much of it is true .... only God knows.

Through her eyes, her memories, her story....everyone has one that can sound awfully familiar! She said it though-you cannot empower someone-self discovery is just that-self, personal, not to be taught but learned through living, mistakes and all. I hope Karrine has finally learned and obtained true love.

Though not well written due to inconsistent timeframes, the book holds your interest due to the celebrities named. Karrine empowered herself by breaking the rules of engagement, what we do here, what we see here what we say here stays here when we leave here and giving the public what they want, the 'dirt' on someone...She is now in the spotlight, a celebrity of sorts, paid! Smart move!

Her son is entitled to know the family history or herstory! He had to live to it too. I hope writing this book helped to heal her spirit as well as line her pockets for both their sakes.

Hey, video vixens come and go and she was getting a little too old to stay on that scene much longer. In the future, I suggest the male artists rethink how they treat the women they choose to surround themselves with.. though all the men mentioned could stand a dose of publicity-after all-it keeps them in the spotlight a bit longer too!

I read the book in a couple of hours....and I KNOW that most of the things in her book are true..atleast from a legal view. From reading the book we all know that home girl lives, breaths, and longs for MONEY...that Mighthy dollar. And from being the up and coming lawyer that I have soo earnestly work hard toward I can say that if anything in that book isn't the truth she can and undoubtly will get her ass sued off for all that she has earned!!! I'm postive that she and her legal counsel are both aware of that!! All in all she loves money tooo much for it all to get taken away over some bullshit. Fuck the drama and the he said she said...it all comes back to what....MONEY

If these are women commenting, I can't believe any of you. If these are men, I just want to say that you have no idea(for the most part), what it feels like to be sexually abused and then put in the situations she was put in. She was in a very vulnerable state and even when you know that what your going through is somewhat your fault its hard to break a way. After being sexually abused many may feel like they want or should be subjected to abuse and probably do have the drive to remove themselves from certain situations. People are so busy being insensitive that they rather attack her, yet these so called idols that we have put on a pedestal can continue to be demoralizing, grude, and just outright atrocious and disgusting. Not to say she was an angel, but get a grip. Do we need arrows to point out perpetrators, criminals, sexual abusers??? No, we just need open eyes, morals, and some god damned common sense.

Posted by: MissMelody4u713 at August 8, 2005 12:47 PM

I read Ms. Karrine's book and could not put it down! I was very disturbed by her bad childhood
experiences. I also FELT her pain from all of the
different relationships she encountered. My mouth
dropped every time she added the name of a celebrity to her list. All I know is there's two
sides to EVERY story, and if she is lying she
fooled me damn good.

Posted by: joya at August 9, 2005 4:40 PM

I had to read this book twice. I felt bad for
Karrine, and my heart really hurt for her young son. None of us are spotless. I had two problems
with Karrine when I read her book:
(1) I didn't like the way she dropped her son off
before she left him to get things in order.
(2) I hated to hear about Ray J being one of her many lovers. The other guys sounded like dogs anyway, but Ray J seems special. I bet his mom had a fit! Come on.........not Ray J!!!

Posted by: glogirl at August 9, 2005 5:43 PM

I've read the book, and at first, I do admit, I my heart went out to Karrine. Her childhood was void of any love, or nuturing from her mother. The only person who TRULY cared for her was her grandmother, and her mother took her away from the island. For the first few chapters, I could kind of understand why she made the poor choices that she did, but chapter, after chapter, after chapter, she continued to do the same thing....SLEEP WITH ALL OF THESE DAMN MEN!!! Okay, she loved EACH AND EVERY ONE OF THEM, let her tell it. She can't possibly be that nieve. Karrine is not stupid by far, she is just doing what she has to do to get paid. This book is going to do just that. She HAD to know none of those men cared for her. She basically said so herself that she do it all again, and that is sad. It's just really unfortunate that her son is gonna feel the wrath of this whole situation. What child would want people to refer to his/her mother as "Superhead", "whore", "slut", "tramp",
"bitch"?? That is depressing in itself. I don't think that she REALLY thought through what it was she is actually doing. Damn putting everyone's business out there, what about her damn son????? And another thing, why the hell did she make it like these niggas was sweating her for real???? She says she was an "insatiable lover" of many...okay, why the hell didn't any of those many, many, many men take her ass to the alter??? I don't recall any of those many, many men leaving their families for her. The one that she proably should have stayed with she didn't, and that was Ray J. He's tainted now, and probably won't get a decent chick. She tried to play Shaq, and say he sweats alot, oh well, what the hell??? Shaq is a BIG nigga!!! I'm sure he did sweat alot!!! If she was gonna put all her business out there, she should have did it up, and named EVERYBODY...not just those select few. I wasn't shocked to see any of the names she listed. I thought she was gonna list some real ballers. Okay, she had Puffy, and???? Puffy probably sleeps with ho'groupies all of the time. I wasn't suprised by any of those names, for real. Vin Diesel I was suprised a little bit, but come on Karrine....where are the real mony makers at??? You didn't do anymore than any chick could have done. So, in all, you kind of played YOURSELF. You talk about all this money, cars, houses....well if you did have all of that, how did your shit get re-possessed?? I always thought if something was yours, it was yours. Boo, while you was giving out all of that ass, you should've been banking some of that doe to put your son through college. You should have BOUGHT a house, not RENTED a condo. You should have NEVER went broke IF you were smart. If they was giving you all of that doe, (including the 10 grand Shaq dropped in your account), you could have banked it, and used their drugs, drank their Cristal. You wouldn't have had to write a book, you would be paid. Oh, well. You got played. Who knows, maybe some little girl will get a message from your dumb, dumb, repeated mistake.

Posted by: Moo's Gyrl at August 9, 2005 10:37 PM

First of all I am sick of chicks uses being raped as a reason to become a slutted out freak bitch. If she was raped then that's sad but she should have learned from that experience and tried to better her life instead she fucked and sucked anything/anybody she could get her hands on. I read this dumb as book (I didn't buy it, I sat in Barnes & Nobles and read it for free because I would have never paid $25 to read that bullshit). At the beginning she says something to the affect that she wants young girls to learn from her mistakes. At the end of the book she's still fucking and sucking. All that "superhead" she gave and for some reason I don't recall her saying everyone was paying. That was supposed to be her goal, to fuck and suck to the top and she did half of that shit for free. I'm not mad at none of the niggas she named either. They treated her just like they were supposed to (a slut hoe bitch). When she was talking about Jay-Z, she said he told her get in the car they left the video shoot, he put on a condom and pushed her head down. Are you fucking kinding me and she thought she was in love with these niggas. There is no possible way she could have thought that one of these niggas was gone wife her. For all of the people that are writing comments saying that there is nothing wrong with what she did, I pray that you all are not that stupid. For that chicks sake, I hope that she made most of that shit up. She needs to take some of that money from the book deal and get a good therapist.

Posted by: posionskin at August 10, 2005 5:11 PM

I read the book in a day. I think that there are some believable parts and some not so believable parts. I think that as a woman with a child that you should have a level of respect about the things that will ultimately affect your child. I do not think that being raped as a child dictates who u become. You should take that and turn it into a positive to make you stronger and wiser. I think she has no tack because she put everyone's business out there what she did is something that should have remained between them. But as usual we will do anything to make a buck. She not only makes the men look bad but she makes herself look disguisting! Where are the men that were mentioned what are they saying? She says at the end of her book that she has changed but then turns around and says that she still parties and hangs out with these same people. It makes me think was it all about money because why would you still hang out with the people who help u become addicted to drugs and alcohol. She likes the excitement I think! That is what drives her and will continue to drive her until the end. I feel for her son though because he has a slut for a mother and know the whole world knows it. I wonder what the PTA is saying now!

Posted by: blckdmd at August 10, 2005 10:45 PM

The reason I purchased this book was because I was interested in knowing about celebrities and their wild escapades with the video chics. But Ms. Steffans book seems a lil too far fetched. Some of it made no sense at all. I agree with a previous reader, why would so many stars pay her to be with them. And why were most of them so interested in being with her. Without make-up she looked like any other female on the streets. And the whole abuse thing seemed a lil made up and added just to make others approve of her lifestyle and not judge her. If she just wanted to sleep around with stars then thats her choice but don't try to get others to agree or accept what she did. And from all this, it still seems she has not changed much in her life-so where was the message she claimed she was sending out to other young girls. This was just a "brag" book probably written for other video girls who she was in competition with just to rub it in their faces.

Posted by: crystal wiggins at August 11, 2005 1:27 PM

To all of those who feel that this woman should just let go of her past and move on, please remember that this is the same thing that people are asking us to do with slavery. Yes, some people are able to "rise above" their circumstances and excel and become "model citizens', but the truth is that most of us CAN NOT. She is just another victim of society. To those who can't understand why a star would pay to be with her, you obviously don't understand the dynamics of men and their money. It's nt about her, its about them and the power that they feel from paying some women to have sex with them, because what it all boils down to is that she is looked at as a whore and he is looked at as a priviliged man who can "afford" to pay for sex. To those who say that she is attractive, again it has nothing to do with looks.....duh! Children who are abused still love their parents so why wouldn't a child of a abuse believe that the men who use her love her? You people really need to be more insightful with the information that you receive, instead of judging and then talking, THINK!!!!!!!

Posted by: Lorraine at August 11, 2005 4:58 PM

She is a slut. I think her having sex with other people's men is bad because she is giving herself a bad name. So what if the sex was good? That doesn't mean that she has to fuck every man in the world. If someone beated her ass for sleeping with their man, I wouldn't blame them because she is a slide.

Posted by: Jazzo at August 11, 2005 6:25 PM

Hi, I read karrin's book and I thought it was great. She had and bad life and what do you expect from someone who was raised like this. At some point and time she should have relized this life is not stable for her son. Some many woman get caught up in the game of getting money, and you be believe if and man gives you money he wants something for it.

Posted by: kim at August 12, 2005 1:45 PM

ALL I HAVE TO SAY IS THAT THE BITCH IS TYRING GET SYMPATHY IN HER BOOK AND MAKE EXCUSES FOR BEING A HOE. I FEEL FOR HER SON ESPECIALLY WHEN HE BECOMES A YOUNG MAN AND GETS PICKED ON. EVERYTHING THAT SHE DID WAS A AN ACT OF BEING SELFISH SO SHE CANT SAY THAT SHE DID EVERYTHING FOR HIM BECAUSE A BABY DOES NOT NEED A LUXARY CAR OR DESIGNER CLOTHES WHAT HE NEEDED WAS HER TO KEEP HER HOT ASS AT HOME. I DID NOT GET ANY KIND OF MESSAGE OUT OF THE BOOK I JUST USED HER AS AN EXAMPLE OF WHAT I WILL NOT BE. I WOULD RATHER SCRUB FLOORS AT MCDONALDS THAN TO SCRUB ALL THOSE DICKS.

ATTENTION CELEBRITIES: IF YOU DONT WANT TO BE IN A COMMITED RELATIONSHIP AND WANT TO PHUCK ALL YOUR GROUPIES THEN DO YOUR PARTNER A FAVOR AND LET HER GO, HOW DARE YOU HUMILIATE YOUR SIGNIFICANT OTHER IN PUBLIC LIKE THAT! NOT TO MENTION BRINGING HOME A DISEASE TO THE MOTHER OF YOUR CHILDREN. MAKES ME SICK TO THINK THAT ANYONE WOULD TREAT THESE CELEBRITIES ANY DIFFERENT THEN ANYONE ELSE, I SEE THEM ALL DAY LONG AND I TREAT THEM THE WAY THEY TREAT WOMEN, LIKE SHIT!

It takes a lot to confront and confess all of the things you have done through out life. A person's past has a lot to do with their future and I believe everything happens for a reason, this book might save many lives and many young girls from having to go through what she went through. Believe me you confessing to the world every secret, every skeleton, the things that made you feel dirty and worthless, IS HARD! Until you have walk in her shoes, say nothing. Abuse, Rape, and Abandonment, have lasting impression and effects. And as far as her naming names in her book, so what! It her book, write your own and do what you feel. At the end of the day everyone is accountable for his or her own actions... Karrine Steffans thank you for sharing your story with me

Posted by: Jade at August 13, 2005 12:58 AM

When i read Karrine's book, of course I was amazed at all the things she had encountered, but the only thing that baffled me was near the end when she stated if she had a chance to relive her past she would do it again. Everyone has had their share of phucking up in life but I personally know that if I had the chance to make some of my mistakes over again, I wouldn't. Yes they did make me stronger and more mature but there are some things that time and wisdom should not even allow one to repeat over again. Overall the book was decent, an easy read, and I hope and pray that everyone who has taken the time to read her book learns something from it. One thing we as people fail to realize is just because it worked for one doesn't mean it will work out the same way for another. Karrine was blessed enough to live through her disturbing past, but whose to say the next person will. Use good judgment, but if you phuck up learn from it and move one because people will judge you if you are doing good things or bad things and though it probably didn't seem like it, I think that's what Karrine wants her reader's to know.

gossip travels very fast i hope everyone that slept with this lady gets checked for hiv and cd4 count along with their spouses, or girlfreinds and in this case boyfreinds because everyone is at risk,and the only advice i can give is there is treatment that you can get from your medical doctor,so please take heed and get tested and please please have safe sex, because somebody is a victim. and you know who you r

I read her book and I found it good but I feel like this. If the people she so called had sex with thought it was not true they would of been saying what she said was untrue and I haven't heard anything like that so far. I think that she had a hard life but just because you got raped and did all that stuff doesn't mean you had to go wildin out. I think she was a horrible mama that part kinda pissed me off. Then I don't like how pious she became with all this god this and god that. I still don't think she has found the lord. Blah I think some of her stories are lies and some i think are true. But the book is good I read it in 3 hrs

Good book, but how gross that these music people go around spreading disease... then they have the nerve to do AIDS relief concerts. How about being faithful to the person who is raising your kids? I am sure she could be doing better things with her life besides sitting home with YOUR kids, that YOU made with HER. How about going to a rehab center and get control of your life? Karrine, should be an inspiration to those who are hooked on drugs. Good luck to you and please stay away from these disease ridden men, I am sure you do not need them anymore with the sucsess of your book. And for those "men" that are denying her accusations, give us a break.

Posted by: ace at August 14, 2005 2:15 PM

I'm almost done reading the book. None of her actions are justified, but hopefully there is/was a lesson learned by someone, especially Karrine herself. What she did was pathetic. The married and 'committed' men involved were just as trifling and there is no need to protect them, afterall, Karrine suffered the consequences. The worst thing is if she didnt learn nothing from it all. These men are mad now, only because their cover was blown. They are most likely still doing the same damn thing with many OTHER superheads,so I have no pitty for them....Peace

I enjoyed reading the book, I do feel she could have tried to make a respectable living seeing she had a son to care for but also I fault the artists to maybe next time they won't be so quick to cheat and think they can treat people bad and think it won't come back to bite you in the ass and she shouldn't be so mad at her mother because the way she describes her mother and what she tells of her life and way's you would think she was talking about the same person, she was asked a question in an interview do she think other parents will talk about her to their children and would it effect her son she said no well with all that money she is making now she is going to realize with more money is more problems and I will not believe that just because she say's she lives in a good section of LA and the parents treat her and her son the same I pray that she stops drinking and using drugs and come back to the real world

That girl should be ashamed of herself. Having sex with her child in a car, you nasty hoe! I can't have respect for someone like that, I heard all about it on Wendy Williams and Wendy tells it like it is and that Karrine hoe, she'll learn! What kind of mother wants their child to know they had to give up their body to keep that child alive. She don't care nothing about that baby, just wants some money, pitiful mommy!

Posted by: Curious As Hell at August 15, 2005 10:31 PM

KARRINE DID HER THING. THAT'S HOW I LOOK AT IT. NOW SHE DIDN'T MAKE ALL OF THE RIGHT CHOICES BUT AS FAR AS GETTIN HER BREAD, SHE DID WHAT SHE HAD TO DO AT THE TIME. LIFE IS A LEARNING PROCESS, AND PEOPLE MAKE FUKKIN MISTAKES. SO ALL THIS BASHING IS NOT CALLED FOR BECAUSE FO SHO, NOONE IS PERFECT. I DID THINGS TO MAKE IT WHILE I WAS IN COLLEGE: NAMELY, STRIPPED. THAT DOESN'T MAKE ME ANY LESS OF A WOMAN. I GRADUATED FROM COLLEGE TWICE AND AM WORKING ON MY THIRD. EVERYBODY WASN'T BLESSED TO HAVE FORTUNE. AS FOR ME, MY FAMILY COULDN'T SEND ME PAPER TO HELP ME OUT IN SCHOOL, OR I WASN'T RIDIN AROUND IN A NICE CAR BUT I MADE IT. AND I FEEL I CAN RELATE TO OLE GIRL IN SO MANY WAYS BECAUSE I FEEL HER PAIN. BUT THE ONLY THING IS THE WORLD DOESN'T OWE A PERSON ANYTHING. YOU LOOK AT WHAT OTHER PEOPLE HAVE AND LONG TO HAVE THOSE THINGS BUT OTHER PEOPLE SHOULDN'T DEFINE YOUR STANDARD OF LIVING. OF COURSE I WANT NICE THINGS AND STRIPPING GOT ME MOST OF THOSE THINGS BUT I ONLY USED THAT AS A STEPPING STONE TO GET MY DEGREES. SOMEDAYS I WISH I HADN'T STOPPED BECAUSE THE MONEY WAS EASIER BUT I DON'T HAVE TO LIVE IN THAT CRAZY AZZ LIFESTYLE ANYMORE AND PEOPLE RESPECT ME MORE. SO FOR KARRINE AND HER BOOK, I DON'T KNOW HER EXACT MOTIVES BUT COME ON THE GIRL FELT PLAYED AFTER PEOPLE SHE WAS DOWN FOR DID HER BAD. SO DON'T BE TOO QUICK TO POINT A FINGER FOR WHAT PEOPLE DO BECAUSE WE ALL HAVE A FEW SKELETONS IN THE CLOSET. AND WHO KNOWS IF YOU WERE IN HER SHOES WHAT THE HELL WOULD YOU HAVE DONE? PEOPLE CAN GO ON AND ON AND SAY "I'M NOT LIKE THAT," OR "SHE IS NASTY," BUT UNTIL YOU GO THROUGH THOSE THINGS, YOU DON'T EVEN DESERVE TO COMMENT BECAUSE YOU CAN'T RELATE....ONE

Well, first of all, the Fear of God is very different than the Fear of man. People always want God, but what are you doing to embrase his presence. The bible states that God's sheep knows his voice. He loves all of us , but when you are purposely doing things towards other people you can't justify that as Godly. I care not to read her book, because my money will not be put towards strengthening the hands of the "wicked", I was not abused, however, it has happened in my family. You choose your path in life whether it is right or wrong. Don't be deceived by the words of some one who could have chose a different route. People come from all types of childhoods and have experienced horrible things. However, God gives us strength to endure. How can you have faith in God, if you can't beleive that he can provide for you and your child the right way. My personal experience with the music industry, I chose not to take alot of people on their offer. But I know that she was looking for artist because I had both producers, promoters, groupie niggas and everything hitting on me,But I chose to take my job serious. I worked in the promotion dept.for a major record company and you see all type of people. I know her kind. Yes, she can change, but stop wrecking people's home cause you came from a broke one. Get your life together and be an example for your younger sibling whom she spoke about. Stop putting your son's identity forward for people to know him, Lord I will protect my kids from my past, but I will teach them the right way, what they choose to do with it is up to them. This lady, man!! all I have to say is that drugs, men, or any other thing you consider a addiction can not make the ultimate excuse for your behavior, she took journals so she had it in her mind a long time ago that she was going to make this dirt bite these people in the butt.She wasn't too drugged up to write now was she? I really do feel sorry for her, sorry that she has branded herself for life and will only have to depend on herself for respect. Until she truly changes God will not step into her situation......So for these churches she stated is backing her up, minister to her how to be delivered and change her life for God sake!!!!!!!!!Peace

Me personallly, I heard the interview on hot97 and I think ma Barker as well as Kool G Rap are full of it. First off, Ma Barker was on some other bullshit because the topic of the conversation at the time was child support, that had nothing to do with the true identity of Papa or anything else she was talking about, if that's what she came on to say she should have kept her mouth shut. Ma Barker kept saying how much of a lier Karrine is and how she put everybody business out in the streets, well her trying to make mention of Papa made her no different than Karrine. And as far as Kool g and the baby goes, first off I truely believe that Kool G is the father of the baby but nobody will know for sure unless there is a blood test and karrine is willing to do the blood test and he kept puttting it off and jumping to other stuff like what he did and didn't make her do. As far as him making her give him head til her nose bled that's true and he' knows it and he might as well own up to it, I mean men correct me if I'm wrong but at the time when they were dating, she was a child and he was an adult she had nothing so she leaned on him for eveything and he knew that he owned her and could do whatever to her and she wouldn't leave, because where would she go? Like I said correct me if I'm worng men if you are 27 and you have a 17 yr. old girlfriend who knows nothing about anything you are going to mold her into the woman you want her to be, you'r going to tell her what to do and how to do it and you know you would minipulate her in some way wheather you ment to or not that's just the nature of a man. And as far as karrine goes, she was at one point a hoe and she has dealt with that and even if she still is some what of a hoe she has come a long way and for that I am proud of her. I do think she is still dealing with her issues but she's better.

OH PAH-LEEEEZE. The book was just alright. I should have sat in Barnes and Nobles and read it for free because she's probably getting high on my 18 bucks. Thank goodness B&N was having a sale. LOL I think she was just trying to get back some much needed attention in her life. She's obviously washed up and used and we're all supporting her drug habit by buying her book. TRUST ME, don't buy the book. Borrow it from someone who has it already. Russell = Papa... like that's a big secret. Puffy = HOW YOU DOIN??? OH PAH-LEEEEZE. The book was just alright.

You know what, I read some of these comments and its is really shameful that many of you talk the way you do, She may have put herself out there but you know what if you had read the book you would know that some of the people she slept with may be married now but were not at the time like Ja.... Shaq. Read the book and comprehend what you are reading. What about the one she did not mention because of his family (The Rap Mogul)the one she referred only as papa did she call him out? And no silly...Russell never rapped a day in his life she said she use to rush home to watch him on rap city. Some read the book and some heared of it and some has friends in the book. Maybe some are in denial that their friends are not wrapped to tight. Men will sid me especially if its your Boy. If you feel she is lying what makes you think G is not to, Shit how he beat on her ass any other woman that gets with him should keep 911 on speed dial and maybe scared of his ass like she was. If the child is not his there is DNA he should have done that that is what you do if you have doubts. Get over it!! It is sad when someone had a hard knock life growing up and went through what she went through and because you lived a certain way with maybe more that she did you feel no pity or even sympathize with what she experienced. There is no experience but to experience for yourself. So you living in the ghetto around drugs and the streets was your experience, not hers. The dedication of her book was for her not us, her son was the reason for her living and carring on. Many of us have been in similar situtions just that the only difference between her and us is she made hers public. Some Only God can and will Judge Karrine not us. Just accept it and teach our children not to go in the directions she went. That is all she is trying to tell us....she made some major mistakes and some of us can learn from it. Hateful comments just makes her stonger to write more and you will buy it, so what does that tell you??? She is smarter that you think she is getting rich just from you wanting to know what she wrote about. A lot of us has Karrines in our family and Kool G raps and others just think about it. And when you have had enough you have had enough! the book is publish sold and her story is still out there whether she lied or not. The story has been told and we all know of it true or false. Same this goes for us, we had an opportunity to vote Democrat or Republican....Ok We got BUSH you believed in him so you voted the results still stand he is President......Right? So there you go the rest of the story.
Remember this...Living like there is no tomorrow means loving all you can TODAY.

Posted by: danielle at August 17, 2005 12:31 AM

i read the book and to be honest i'm happy she wrote it. i'm not sure if everything written is 100 percent true, infact only God knows, but i highly doubt if everything was a lie so with that in mind if anything is to be learned we can truly learn more about the people that we are calling our role models. the young girls of today can get a better understanding of the industry and the men, maybe we'd have less video hoes maybe we'd stop wanting to locate and impress with hopes of marriage the ja rules and the puff daddies. i hope that we can learn that beauty and value isn't determined by how many rap stars want to sleep with you. In the book the most intellegent part was when she wrote about how when we were younger we wanted to be ballet dancers and actresses, then we got a little older and became products of our environment which led us to only feeling worthy enough to be in someones video butt naked. so once again i am very happy she wrote the book and i do believe that if not yet she will find her way to healing, because now whether she's believes it or not she is admitting that she is/was wrong and has/had a problem and that is the first step to being healed, so God bless her.

Posted by: bella916 at August 17, 2005 2:20 PM

I read the book in one day. I just couldnt put it down I believe it was because I was just so damn nosey like everyone else who got the book. The book was pretty good. She told HER STORY and whether or not all of it is true is only something she and those discussed will know. She is getting hers regardless of the way she has to get and you can not hate her for that. One must always remeber that what you do in the dark will all ways come to light.
The only thing that bothered me about the book was the bullshit she took her son through. Regardless of age a child knows and remebers things. Many think while the child is young they can do whatever, kids are not studpid if you are not there they know and will remeber. I hope that she is a better parent. She has son and he needs to brought up in the right way because of the way our African American men are treated when they get older. She has to show him that motherly love and show him the right things and the bullshit she was doing was not the right things.
On another note I do think that the book did in some ways glorify the lifesytle and then in other ways told just what you deal with to live that lifesytle and it aint pretty. I think that any young female that reads this book would see all the things she got and what it cost her to get them and that is reality these young women need these days.

INSTEAD OF SUCKING DICK ALL DAY SHE SHOULD HAVE BEEN IN SCHOOL TAKING SOME CLASSES. MY ONLY PROBLEM WITH HER IS THE WAY SHE TREATED HER SON. FUCKIN IN THE CAR WHILE HE IS THERE? AND THE AUDACITY TO DEDICATED THE BOOK TO HIM? SHE IS A SHAMELESS SLUT.

Posted by: HOYA at August 18, 2005 6:50 AM

I read Karrine Steffans book all in one wop. It was very enteresting. My mouth was wide open the whole time. This was sure enough a tell-ll book. I really felt bad for her son. I think most of you are not understanding "why" she wrote this book. Her point is, to let all the young girl out there know what's behind the life of a "Video Girl". It's not to let everybody know what she did, or who she did it with. It was the "situations" she went through. How the drugs, the abuse, how theses so called "IDOLS" of our children treat women, and what she went through just to make a buck. Who cares if she metioned these men names. Anyway, why is everybody so mad?? None of the name mentioned surprised me at all. Like the young lady said earlier, "maybe" Shaq. Karrine didn't put these guys name out there, they put themselves out there by "doing it". She's just telling her story, hoping that the you girls learn from this. And far as I'm concerned there was only one smart one of the many men mentioned, and that was "Jay-Z". Jay-Z put a condum on just to get head from her, and I applaude him for that, and that only. I'm sure theres a lot of guys not even mentioned in the book. Hell, she probably made a lot of money off men buying the booking trying to find out if their name was mentioned. And who ever "Papa" is, I know he's on his knees right now thanking the good lord that she didn't mentioned his name. But I can tell you one thing, whoever he is, he's gotta be a "BIG" name. And...he's probably still affiliated with her. Oh well, adventually his name will came out too. Anyway, Ms. Steffans, if you read these comments, "CONGRATS" on your book and I wish you and you son all the best.

PS. For the dudes with the "nasty mouth" up there, bragging about whatthey did to her, you better be careful. Because if you are one of her many men that was not mentioned, wacth out, there might be a "PART II"....lol..lol...

Posted by: Big Ups!! at August 18, 2005 10:01 AM

Girl, I read this book not only in one day but in
a few hours. It was too good. I was curious and
maybe a little nosey, but I had to keep reading to see if my favorite guys(50 Cents/The Game)
would be added to her list of men. Now come on,
everybody and their papa(smile) was in that book.
Nobody should be mad at HER, be mad at those nasty
ass guys. They should have more class than that
since their names are in the spotlight at all times. If every artist in the hip hop industry buys her book just to see if their name is listed Karrine will be rich just from that. Anyway, I'm glad I didn't see 50 and Game's name among the madness. I was already about to drop the book
and my snacks when Ray J's name came up. All I
can say is "Lord have mercy!" Karrine is a beautiful lady and I wish the best for her and
her son in the future. Now, G and Ma Barker..... that's a whole new story. Maybe Karrine will write a book on them.

I think that we must remember that at the time the things mentioned in the book she was a child. Where is the responsiblity of the men involved? Maybe now they won't be so quick to put their dick in every female that boosts their shallow egos. It was unreal to me how ma talked about her on the show and tried to defend kool g rap. I believe Karrine and no matter what, she was 17 and he was 27. He should be arrested for being a pedafile. He probably does owe child support, whether it is 200,000 or 10,000, it is still unpaid, the boy eats everyday. I thank her for putting out a realistic protrayal of the hip hop industry and its sick disgusting performers who are so weak minded that they feel taking advantage of naive young ladies makes them men. Please they all need therapy and HIV tests. Also I cannot wait for part two, so I can find out who else is disgusting and just another insecure little boy whose money makes them think they are beyond decency and morals.

Posted by: verizon ringtones at November 2, 2005 3:37 AM

I have recently read her book. I also heard the interview on hot97. First let me start by saying that we in no way should judge anyone on what we believe is wrong. Everyone has different morals and standards. It just so happens that karrine's morals and standards were very low. She saw a way to make money and tried to be in the lime light but she went about it all the wrong way. She was young when she had her son. And we all know how some young mothers do. They forget that they have a huge responsibility now and that they can no longer rip and run like the young person that they are.Let's not forget she was on drugs. She also had no father figure. She didn't have a good role model(her mother). If you truly read the book she started off with her childhood. She learned from her mother at an early age that sex is all a woman has to offer. And if she wanted to keep a man you should have his baby, Sadly but true alot of our young girls believe in this theory. She also had a complex she is obviously a beautiful woman but she always settled for less and she always put herself down and she also allowed other people to degrade her and put her self worth down. She truly needed therapy or just someone to talk too and set an example for her. The best way to learn is said to be by example. It's sad that we live in a society where fame and wealth rule everything. because the people she wrote about in her tell all book are of such high standards everyone is blaming karrine. What about these men they have degraded women on so many levels and now karrine has written a book about it what's wrong with that. Ma barker should mind her business I understand that she is the wife now but he also has a son with another woman and kool g rap should address that part of karrine's life. Ma Barker if anything should be telling her husband that he needs to support his son. shouldn't that be the main focus his SON! Ma Barker should fall back and let karrine and kool g handle their situation and step in only when necessary. These industry men who take advantage of young women trying to get in the lime light should be addresed.Before they wind up in another tell all book. And I agree all of them need to take a HIV TEST IMMEDIATLEY. I also think there is nothing wrong with her dedicating this book to her son. If her son is the reason she had the wake up call it's only right because he saved her life that and god and some much neede common sense. So hopefully she will continue to improve her life and become the mother she should be to her child. I hope that this book helps a lot of these girls that is out here trying to find a fast break that in the long run it may not be worth it cause at the end of the day you have to answer to yourself and god.

Posted by: LUCHIANO SAHVOT at November 27, 2005 3:53 PM

I must admit when I read the book I was totally in pain for Karrine and her terrible childhood. But as she grew to a women I became disheartend for lack of respect for herself and her son. I also believed that the book might be a little fabricated. Some of the facts just dont add up i.e when she states in her book her and Usher where in L.A in 2003 and as they approached the hotel it was alot of students from Michigan State in front of the hotel. I graduated from Michigan State in 2003 and I went to every game both home and away except for 2 games in 2001.I know damn well Mi St aint been to no damn Rose Bowl Since the 1970's . So it made me question what I already believed to be a little fabrication. I feel like if your going to write a tell all truth book you should at least have all your little facts straight. I only bought the book to see who she would name drop in the book . And believe she will never get my damn money again . She pimped all of us readers just like she did the men in the book she slept with. Next time she might want to get someone to proofread her work because her book was poorly written.

I haven't read the book yet but,I plan to.I personally think that people do change and that she deserves a second chance to prove who she really is.I don't think she's lying nor do I think she is a whore.I think she is woman who was infatuated with that particular lifestyle at that time but,soon realized that it's not all glitz and glamour like most of us believe.I feel that a lot of people are judging her when they should be proud of her for coming from where she was before in her life to now.Sure she's done some things I'm sure she wish she could change,but,who hasn't?Now, I do think she totally knew that by naming names the book would skyrocket and sell, she's no dumb cookie but, that was merely a good business move nothing personal.I see no difference in them exploiting her than her doing right back to them.That's what you call "karma" my dears.

Yeah I read her book, and I think she has seriuouy has problems. Why in the hell would you keep running back to man who beats on you. The first time G Rap put his hands on her, then that's when she should have known that it was time to walk out that door.

Posted by: You're Beautiful at December 3, 2005 1:13 AM

I read the book and I loved it!!! I don't think that she was wrong for what she did at all. She did what she had to do but I don't think that she did it for her son like she claims she did. Yes she was being a hoe but she isn't dening it. She is simply telling her life experience. Of course she had intentions on writing the book to make money or else she would have not named names but she also wanted to inform people the real deal. As far as everyone who said she lost the game and should not have told names or wrote the book at all why not? The men she phucked knew what was going on married or not. She was not the one in the relationships with the married women so why should she care. She was making money. I don't knock her for making it the way she did, I just think that she should have been smarter in the way she spend the money. She should have invested it or saved some. There are plenty of things that degreat women behind closed doors and she was the only one to tell some of the reality of it and I applaud her for that. My word of advise for Karrine would be that when you get your money for the nexr book and movie invest and save. You should get paid off your life experiences but you should also learn from them. I am a video vixen and I have done alot. What she wrote waws not even the half of what goes on and I speaking from my own experiences. But the difference between me and her is that I am smart with the money I have earned and I don't love none of these celebs. I have earned enough money to were my two year old daughter will be a millionaire when she turns 20 years old. Phucking for money is nothing new sluts phuck for free all the time. I am happy that it is out there and that she did name names and I hope all of those celebs that were married learn from this and that the wives get all of ther money. Celebs are not what you think they are. Trust!!!!!!!!!!!

I was given this book by my best friend...and i never put it down. We all know that we want to hear all about the celebs and what they're doing in their personal lives...and now you got it. I just find it funny that she was willing to name certain people and not others. Why put these men on blast, but keep the names of others out of the lime light? "Papa" phucked her over just like all the others did, but we steadily don't know who he really is. She needs to get her self toghther. As a mother, I constantly found my self going "so where is her son right now?" One second she was with him and the next she was in Miami. I guess you gotta do what you gotta do, but not at the expense of a helpless child.

Posted by: tha one at December 6, 2005 1:48 PM

I read Video Vixen and I was disgusted. As a female who has been molested I would never use my past as a way to explain why became a Hoe. I believe this book will miss guide young girls, having them take this young lady's mistake's and use them to step their game up. I also believe that the book was written out of revenge for all the men that left the girl hanging. Superhead, get some help! If you don't believe in therapy, give it to GOD. I know alot of Superheads from around my way but they would never write a book and disclose all their business to the world let alone dedicate some trifling bullshit like that to their kids. For all the men who slept with this woman I can only hope and pray that you all used CONDOMS,AIDS still exists. To the wife's, keep yor head up, remember misery loves company! Why a person would right a book that could not only end marriages but split up families, leaving children without a mother and a father is beyond me. I just want to point out that Entertainers are just like us, they may have fame and fortune but no one is perfect or without faults. It's not what you do it's how you do it. I hope someone can find a lesson to learn from this bullshit, mainly the author who seems to have been crying out for help when she wrote it. Almost everyone wants to br apart of the rich and famous but as Superhead has clearly shared with the world selling your soul ain't worth it.

I read the book. She makes excuses for her behavior. Many women like sex, many women do drugs, many women have multiple lovers and sleep with married men. But many of them stop when they become mothers and don’t write it down like some rite of passage.

To the guys who got fronted on, that's the price you pay for sleeping around.

But to the people who keep saying she did what she had to do WRONG, she did what she liked to do and what she WANTED to do. Hvaing sex in a car while your son is in it is low down and common. Period! Folks are always talking don’t judge somebody ..judging somebody aint hard to do when you call a spde a spade. She is on the covers of Smooth and Vibe and she is in videos, she obviously is beautiful enough to make money legitimately with out sucking and screwing everybody she thinks has a big bank. By the way if we know who she slept with…I bet there are a lot of non famous peoples she screwed to get to the clebs….

Take the money she wasâ€pimping†these guys for and pay your damn bills and take care of your son…

Folks are always talking about not judging somebody...if you smoke crack it may be sad but you are a drug user...if you rob banks to feed your family you are still a thief...and if you screw people repeatedly for money clothes cars and material items you are out for one thing ...Stuff!

This chick is an embarrassment to her self and her son. How many single moms have the dignity not to hang around people who are celebrities and don't screw them to feed their kids...give me a break...get her a job..and stop acting like a victim.

I wonder what she would tell if she wasn’t getting paid and I wonder how many guys she would still be screwing if she had gotten pregnant by John Doe Regular working man and Not KOOL G RAP......I can smell her from here...Trash!!


She has been arrested for prostitution, done a porn movie under the name “Superhead†with Mr. Marcus, and slept with people she wasn’t going to marry or was going to have marry hear and writes a book? Her son should be so proud.

I say don’t buy the book buy her some Clorox and a book on how to be a mother, cause it looks like another young black man is going to have the odds against him because of a sorry and silly parent.

I have recently read her book. When I was finished with it i was really confused. I know she said that she wrote the book to warn our young ladies about the business. But as I read the book I not only read it through my eyes as a young woman but also that of a mother of a little girl and also tried to picture a young woman reading it. In all honesty if i was a teenage girl reading this It would not only confuse the hell out of me, but make me want to try it myself minus her dumb ass mistakes. after reading this book I looked her up and a lot of past interviews that she has done. I come to find her in her words a "power freak". I believe that all her past experinces with these men that she delt with she came up with the short end of the stick and the moments that she had with them was theirs leaving here with a broken heart and seven times in the book "crying uncontrolably". She felt like she had to make all those moments hers again and have the power, aka THE LAST LAUGH! By that she fed off of Americas Insatiable need for gossip in "pop culture" and made every one who bought this book her "hoes" I know ots hard to swallow even I was sucked in. Karrine Steffans has one peron on her mind Its not the teenage girls of america, its not her son, its not papa Its KARRINE STEFFANS. It is truly sad that she would come across as trying to guide these poor young girls who are already confused cause they have no one else to look up to. Now they are reading this book and are even more confused. I olny pray to God that he leads them in the right direction, Because what Karrine is doing is dangerous to our new generation. I only pray that this book does not touch my daughters hands.

Posted by: songbird at December 9, 2005 3:36 AM

The book is a good read. Also I listened to the interview with Karrine and Chuck D. I thought that she was well spoken and versed. The interview flowed properly and intellectually. Due to the fact that she wasnt in a hostile environment, where someone would have attacked her character. I commend her for her efforts. I only wish her contiuned blessings and success.
She too is a child of the almighty.

Posted by: VPCh at December 9, 2005 5:40 PM

I haven't bought the book, but all I can go by to comment on are exerpts I've read and Miss Stephan's interviews. I remember specifically how she spoke of Jay Z in one exerpt and how he took her for a ride, had her suck him off and then he brought her back to the set. She tried to make it sound like they mutually decided not to have a relationship. I would wager that most men wouldn't want you for their woman if they could get you to suck them off the first time you met them with only a few words and a ride in their car.

I feel like I just can't support it..it's not meant to be a cautionary tale IMO because she still seems proud of it. She still seems in denial..she thinks that the first time she was dissed was when she was "down and out" and that the men that sexed her for years were not disrespecting her. Then I feel kind of like maybe she is putting her somn out there more that he had to be. Really, people may have known what she did in the industry..but it wasn't out there for the rest of us until she put it there. I personally never knew anything about her.

The men were just as wrong to sleep with her, but I feel like she may have been taken advantage of in the beginning, but at some point she was hip to the game and down with the program. Just because these men made the commitment to the wives and she didn't does not take some of the owness off of her. I feel sad that this type of thing is celebrated.

Posted by: karess at December 14, 2005 3:24 PM

I saw her interview on Tyra Banks, actually, I watched it twice. It's amazing how she got so upset when she would make statements about things that went on and Tyra would disagree with her, and quote from her book the things that SHE said. However, her memory was getting kind of cloudy when she would say things that were different from what she put in the book! Now she's running around calling Tyra Banks ignorant, and a hypocrite because she got her card pulled on national tv! She supposedly has a "list" of people Tyra slept with, and says that if she doesn't watch out, she'll put it out there. Why is anyone that doesn't agree with her ignorant? Just because your dating Bill Maher, and "used to talking to Brit Hume and people like that does not change the reality of what you did. You are what you are, and being abused doesn't give you more right to do stupid stuff than any one else. And as for being ignorant, Ms Tyra got accepted to FIVE colleges BEFORE she was a Supermodel! What have you done? Sucked all the d**k you could and earned the name Superhead, and got a "bestselling book" out of the deal. Now take some of that money and go buy a damn clue!

And as for every body who's so upset at all the men who "did her so wrong"? After the first time, yeah, but like another poster said, at some point she got hip to the game, and knew what was up. A man is going to take what is given to him freely, and that includes free ass! EVERBODY was wrong, but I don't feel any pity for her ass. It is what it is, and she got served, now she's pissed off. I work around these girls everyday, just sitting around trying to get a piece of these artists. There are some that see this as what it is, their JOB!!!! They do the job, then they leave, no hanging with the artists. Some of these girls have had it WAY harder than this chick, and they have read the book, and are amazed. It is all about choices. For all of you who say that these men got what they deserved, and it's called KARMA? You're right, and it is true in Ms Steffans' case as well,run your mouth too many times, and somebody is going to get tired and shut it for you, because what goes around definately comes around, and what goes up definately comes back down!

As for her relationship with Bill Maher? Think stupid, if you hadn't written that silly-ass book, do you think he would know who your dumb ass WAS? His ass is washed up too, so put 2 and 2 together. As soon as the new wears off, he'll be just like the rest. And when you're asked how Bill and your son get along in their relationship, you say they don't have one because you've only known him for a few months, so you haven't introduced them to each other. Hmm, yet you can write a "tell all" book about all the men you f****d, and dedicate it to your son, AND put the child's NAME in it? But to hear you tell it, that person who was doing all those things was only 21. I know a lot of 21 year olds who have had a bad family life who aren't that stupid,and as for the child, CPS are you listening??!!?? If this was anybody else, that kid would have been taken long ago!

Remember, as another poster said there are 2 sides to EVERY STORY, and one of those other sides knows ALL about her ass, and there is a book publisher waiting to jump on it! When you put it out there you have to be ready for what you get back. And for Karrine Steffans, it's coming sooner than she may think! I just hope she has a pillow for her ass, because when she falls on it, it's gonna be HARD!

I just finished reading the book. I actually read it in half a day, as I couldn’t put it down. I must be honest that one of the reasons that triggered my curiosity of wanting to know who she was about to reveal. Nonetheless, I believe that this a very inspiring book and not only for the so called “video whores” or aspiring ones, but for every single individual out there. I speak for my self here. I learned that even with the mistakes I have committed in life, it is never too late to get up and start afresh. Her message here is to NEVER GIVE UP! No matter how many times we might fall or stumble. Some claim that she never learned anything as she states that she would do it all over again. However, that is not exactly what she says. I quote “Would I do it again? Yes. If someone told me that I would have to relive my entire life in order to be fulfilled as I am now, then I would.” All Ms. Steffans is saying is that she feels blessed that her experiences have made her stronger as a person and had she not experienced what she encountered, she certainly wouldn’t be the strong person she is today. As a young black intelligent woman, I have been through a couple of things in my life and some how I wish I could rewind the clock. However, when I actually reflect, I wouldn’t be the person I am today and I wouldn’t have inspired the few that have felt touched by my life story. So let’s quit the judging and those whose lives have been exposed, well, this certainly should be a learning experience, as you have witnessed that the truth will always come out. No one is perfect and we are all always striving to be better. And as Ms. Steffans tells it all, I believe that she is still in a healing and growing process this never stops until we reach our telos.

Posted by: vee at December 19, 2005 4:10 PM

This is a shame how all yall beotches is goin on and on about how she was wrong, and how she had to do what she had to do.
It aint nobodys place to judge this woman, and if you sat and listened to her interviews, or read her books, you just as bad as you say she is.
Yall need to try to encourage black women, not bring them down by callin them hos and all at s**t!!!
Dont hate she just needed some money, and took advantage of the chance she had to tell her story. I bet ne of yall would tell it too!! :)

Posted by: kp at December 19, 2005 5:32 PM

I did read the book and it was truly sad. What I don't understand is her many excuses in life. Her reasoning for everything was because she was raped and abused that's why she ended up the way she was.

It's so many women out here everyday that were raped, abused, living in poverty, and that are single mothers...THATS LIFE!!!
Then she kept saying how she didn't want to become her mother...Well sorry Ms. Steffans, you have.

I know women who grew up in horrible living conditions and rised above all obstacles and became successful legitamantly.

Here is something she needs to think about.The black community is dying from AIDS... we have the highest rate in every major city...and not only that...BLACK WOMEN!!! Did she ever use protection??

Another thing I am not saying that the rape was her fault at all by no means!!! But as far as everything else you allowed it and still allowing it. It's a sad case. All i can do is pray for her and she needs to make sure she has body guards with her at all times because it's some angry wives out there!!!

Posted by: tjgriffin at December 19, 2005 6:26 PM

To all the people who are responding!!! Did you actually read the book...I think not!!! She was only paid by Shaq and Ice T. No one else paid her. Kool G beat her and Ja Rule, Bobby, DMX, Puffy, Irv Gotti, sexed her up anddid drugs with her. Oh, I forgot she loved everyone she slept with...Ray J, Ja Rule, DMX...etc. SAD CASE!!!

Posted by: wakeup at December 19, 2005 7:04 PM

Yes, some have managed to overcome obstacles without having to use their bodies and what not. However, not everyone is destined to follow the same path. Ms. Steffans is an example to many young girls that might have a similar life that she did in the past. From her, they can learn that there is still hope for them when they realize that the life they are leading is not going to be fulfilling no matter how much money they might acquire from their activities. From her they can learn not to be ashamed of their past, but to get up and stand tall and learn from their experiences. Experiences that will not only ultimately make them stronger in this challenging world, but also from their experiences they can help save a soul or two by not being afraid to tell their stories.

Posted by: Jazz at December 28, 2005 12:00 PM

You know...All the hype about this book was all hype! That was one of the corniest books I've read since this gangsta tale called "Ghetto Girls". I'm not gonna lie I did go into the book wanted to know who she fucked and whatever and what rappers she was dealing with, but it just started getting out of hand! I admit she had a rough childhood, but there was no reason for her to be so stupid and naive! She claimsed that she hated her mom so much, but she turned out to be just like her if not worse. Throughout the whole book, she never got her life together and everytime she was supposedly "getting it together" she was having sex with a new celeb. And and in the hell do you leave the son that you prayed for and claimed to love soooo much with the man who knocked you and ya son down to the ground? But he wouldn't harm his son, huh? She's an asshole and has been one since she was 13. She was stupid because all the guys she was fucking she swore up and down that they had a connection and that there was "love". And why in the hell did she think Ja Rule was going to put the mother of his kids after her? She was getting mad at these stars for messing with other woman like she was the WIFE and they were the WHORES. It's really sad to see ho she still hasn't learned, but I don't think it's possible because I truly believe she's a naturally naive, dumb, clueless person. Biggups to Hova for letting her know what it was hitting for...Ja, get ya life together, Diddy and Irv too...Biggup to Fred for treatin her for who she is..A WHORE and biggup to XZIBIT and Ray J...And I don't even know why! Oh yeah and that last chapter and ending with Usher...POINTLESS! Get ya game up Karrine or Yizette or whatever! That book was horrible from...semin start to finish and I advise everybody to read in a day cuz that's all it takes...and take that BULLSHIT back. Get ya mondye back! Buy a bug mac and get ya nails done or something! Gonna try them glasses on the trya banks show to make ya whory ass look smart...loser. Fuckin hypocrite! I feel sorry for her son...Does she even know his name?

Posted by: Got My Money Back The Next Day at January 3, 2006 1:35 AM

Whoever you are...Got ya money back the next day, you are a hater! You are just mad that she learned her lesson and now she is stronger! Your problem is that if you were in the same shoes you probably wouldn't be as lucky as she was! She was truly blessed by God to get out of such a tremendous situation like she did and okay so she has dirt on her that's fine because I look up to her. Earlier in the last year I lost my boyfriend because I wanted to be just like the girls in the video thinking that's what he wanted! He got tired of me always complaining about being them so he left me. I figured out that that was not what he wanted and that I was just silly about the situation cause he wanted me for me not for my body and me wanting to be like someone else was a turn off to him. So after reading this book I really have a better understanding of video girls and the life of someone who had the low self esteem and just wanting someone to like them and be next to them because I had been battling that my whole high school years! I think she did the best thing to get the word out cause so many girls need to hear why it is not so important to have a skinny body, big assets, long hair and everything else the media portrays about most women in the videos.
Thank you Karrine, you are a truly amazing person I thank you personally for helping me realize that being skinny and revealing isn't everthing! As to you got my money back the next day, you have no right in hating on such a phenomenal woman because she did something most video girls wouldn't do and that takes courage!

I believe she did the things she did because of her upbringings plus she was abused mentally and physically by her husband and that also had its affect. All women want to feel wanted by someone and if they cant find that they are goingto keep searching until they find it

Examples:
Strippers
Video Vixens
Models all want someone to look at them and want them thats why they put theirselves out there like that....So dont just call her a hoe because of who she slept with to get to where she is now....think about what she went through then look at the negative things she did on her own they all link together!

i would like to start off by saying it is sad to see and hear this womens story...but i do feel sorry for her due to the fact her self-esteem is at ground zero... her and the men she slept with are to blame she should have more respect for herself as a black women because we have it hard enough trying to defeat this sterotypes we are put into... then for her to go and life that lifestyle then wrote a book about hell take those issues in prayer not to the media... to those dudes that were in the book please do not be upset because your bizz is put out there you should have thought about that when you were livin like dogs straight out of a porn story.... there is also rumors that someone needs to get tested for Aids ...... there is not reason for any women to have to live like that i am 23 years old with 2 children and i do whatever i have to do to take care of my children except sell drugs and my ass because i am better than that all this is is a way for her to make money and get 5 minutes of fame because if she was really about change she would have went on with her life and learned from her mistakes without writeing a book... so everytime we found ourselves so to speak or learn from a mistake we should write a book damn every person in America should have a best seller... once again to all those men in the book you are just as nasty as the chick and someone needs to go to the clinic because someone might have something ugh!!!!1

i applaud karrine stephens for surviving the very lifestyle and demons that should have left her dead. her point blank emotional honesty is something many of us may never achieve. she picked herself up by her bootstraps and focused her energies in her true talents. no, it's not the most eloquent piece of writing. however, it's simplicity makes it available to everyone. this book is her experience, healing, and tool for empowerment. it makes me sad that some people can be so hateful and ignorant. karrine stephens if you or your people read this, know that you have a fan in me.

i think Karinne is like a lot of girls who feel like sex will boost their esteem when they need it boosted. Dont disrespect her, she knows what she did was wrong but on the other hand shes getting paid out the ass right now, and blasted the niggas who shouldnt of fucked her anyway especially if they got familes at home. She put them nasty rappers out there like i would do too if i had to sleep in my car with my son. She turned to them same niggas for help and they didnt do shit.... OH but had the time to fuck her RIGHT. Well she's NOT SLEEPING IN HER CAR NOW!!!!

To those diligent readers who have observed many of the posts on this page you will see that many of the comments by males are disgusting and degrading. Comments like (not quoted) "She is just a bitch and a whore." On the other hand, many of the women who have posted their ideas and opinions of the book are more soft spoken--expressing opinions about how sad the whole case is and some have even given Ms. Steffans her props for having the courage to write the book from the beginning.

I find a problem with this. Why are the comments by men angry and furious? Even though Karrine is speaking of random acts of sex, involvement with drugs, etc., no one speaks of Kool G Rap and his digusting antics.

Why is it so easy to continually degrade and put women down when the men get off scott-free? This is the real problem in U.S. society--especially within the black community. Even though Steffans actions were morally inappropriate so were her baby's fathers actions. It is about damn time that women speak of their experiences---BLACK women. Even if they are lewd. Those comments from men just show how unequal the sexes really are.

i just finished reading her book and i found it very interesting. i felt bad about merlin. to hear that he was down and out, probally depressed and lonley just like karrine was. i dont blame her for what she did when you feel depressed and have no one to turn to for help, u would probally do alot of things that u wouldnt do if u werent depressed and if u had someone who you knew loved u and cared about you. about nameing all the celeb's, oh well, if u would of not been doing anything wrong in the first place there would not be anything to write about. you made your bed now lay in it.i dont see anything wrong about her writing her book. everyone needs to make money.she is just writing her story. i didnt really learn any lessons from her book. she just wrote about things that happen everyday all around the world. if anything i did learn to try to have more self respect for yourself because if u dont nobody else will.

I think she brought out the truth on people ass. Most of these bitches on here talken about she a ho, how could you do that and where was her respect. but tell if yo ass seen ja rule or jay z and they was like meet me in my room i bet you yo ass would skip there. Its all abot the money and she was getten it and she still getten it cause no matter what yall got to say yall still read her book wanting to know what she got to say a forken up that $25 to do it. Everybody wants to be a star and whatever you got to do to get there a bitch will do it . it's not degrading if you want to sleep with that person or if you want that money, you gone do what you got to, so just do me a favor and just keep it real. P.S you know people really be fucced up ffrom child hoods and shes a case of that. but the main thing i've learned about karrine is that she loves sex, money and her son, and a child would make you do the unthinkable to protect and feed your child. I think still out of all she have been through there is still some girls out there that would like to be in her shoes.

Hey look,

Me and a friend of a friend were watching BET or something and we saw "Superhead". So they say "you know I got a tape of her sucking some man off"..I really couldnt believe it was really her. I mean I heard of her scandalism, but not in the porno industry. Anyway, continuing my curiosity, I saw the DVD. "Superhead" shows up introducing herself as "honey", well supposedly the guy (seems to be a well known porno guy) forgot what her name was, then all of a sudden she shows up behind him saying "my name is Honey, motha fu*ker". Anyhoo, this girl gives that man the meanest blow job I ever seen in my life. First he pulls back, then she actually grabs the d*ck and puts it back in her mouth. She made that man cum twice in 1 minute.. He came in her mouth and everything twice as far as what i saw. Trust me if anyone saw that DVD, you would not question the "Superhead" moniker, I mean i knew it had a lot to do with oral, but her oral skills, i have never seen anything like it.
Anyway, enough with the graphics, "Superhead" is just plain nasty, and lives out that name in true fashion. Just when i started feeling sorry for her life and childhood, I see a porn like that, and makes me wonder how desperate she was/is for recognition and money. There are a lot of people who went thru tough times, and decided they were going to surpass their situation, not fall into it. But what really gets me, is how she comes off like I AM THE VICTIM lol. Its so sad how her mindframe was/is. You put yourself out there scandalously, how do you expect ANYBODY to come at you any different? She claims these celebs dogged her. What were they supposed to do, pick her up make her a d*cksucking housewife, and think shes going to be the best family woman/wife? I mean im sure she has friends that cared for her, but who knows..she could have probably disregarded the quests for her to change and just went off continuing to please all the men she could. Anybody who agrees with that, need to GET REAL. Its wrong for me to type this, but "Superhead" was treated ACCORDINGLY. And all this GO BUY THE BOOK is just another way for her to get more recognition and money, because that was her number ONE priority. One thing im glad about is that she claims to make a change. I mean i hear she is dating that white guy, but hes brave to still kiss her in the mouth. And her son, lets hope he doesnt fall VICTIM to an unhappy childhood like what she claims her mother put her thru.

Posted by: K212 at January 15, 2006 11:21 AM

Oh yea..anyone who reads this, heres a word of advice, there is NO NEED to buy that book.. Just get that porno...lol..it doesnt matter what "Superhead" says..WATCH WHAT SHE DOES. The industry is the industry. But her come-off is agree with what i say when im doing something opposite. Not only does she look like the best head giver..SHE IS HYPOCRITE..i never bought the book..just borrowed..but dont waste your money on a book that tells a sad story, when that persons actions are that of her revelling in sexual escapades...No need to read..just WATCH!

Posted by: sizegenetics at January 17, 2006 7:52 PM

I applaud karrine for writing this book, because you have people that will not be honest with there life. Because they probably feel to embarassed about things that happened to them. Karrine feels that this book was written to help some of the females that may be considering that type of lifestyle. So, don't look down on karrine for what she's done in her past. At least she found her way to make a better life for herself and her son. Everyone makes mistakes. The best thing about this is that she changed for the better. The moral of this story is that she is saying BE THERE FOR YOUR CHILDREN. Who's to say that those guys she was with didn't do the things she said they did. Just because they are
superstars that doesn't mean that they are not capable of making and doing wrong things.

Posted by: Inity at January 20, 2006 3:56 PM

Let me just start off by saying that i wanted to read this book for the longest. From all the rumors and the hateful words towards this woman, I just can't believe it. Alot of woman say why would she dedicate this to her son... Easy dumbass, to prove that what she did wasn't the smartest thing,it caused her pain and hopefully he doesn't have to do some of the mistakes that she has done in her life. To help other girls that are even thinking about putting themselves in the same position that she was consequences that can really happen. I believe if it wasn't her who was going to say something it would have been someone else, as for her being a snitch... Thats bull look at all the stars that treated her like crap who used her and abused her, what they didn't call her out as a superhead but for them cause they are men its all good. Its so funny to see what type of society we live in, what just because these men got money it should all be on the hush... Please, if you don't like having your name called out then you should have kept your dick in your pants... It is what it is and except it this girl deserves whatever money has gone her way its called the life as a hustler and she did her and not worried about you for once in her life...

I JUST WANTED TO SAY I BELIEVE EVERYTHING SHE SAID ABOUT THE CELEBRITIES. im from brooklyn, and last saturday i went to a birthday party on top of a stripclub. the guys at the party were drug dealers. they are well known and have lots of money. there was a lot of hennesy and grey goose being passed around. they were also handing out ectasy pills like they were candy. me and my friends bought pills for $10 each. then later one of the guys came over and handed my homegirl a couple of "E- pills" on the house. while i was high on "E" i just sat backed and was observing the party.everyone at the party was high n "E". mostly all of the girls were stressing the drug dealers. some of the men were ugly. but that didnt matter as long as they had money and were popular, thats all that mattered to the ladys. you could see that all the girls wanted to leave with the guys with the money.the guys at the party were acting like they were the bomb and they knew that they could have any body at the party that they wanted just because they have alot of money.each of the drug dealers left with about 2 or 3 girls each. who knows what happened after they left to the guys house. i can only imagine. but if this happens with regular drug dealer guys, you know that these celebrities with all there money think they can do whatever they want.

Why is everybody hating. Those men knew what they were doing and knew what was at stake. And as for her on the Tyra show. I know I can tell someone a story about my past and then tell another person the same story and some stuff is different. It doesn't make it any less the truth. I can't remember the exact order of things that happened 5 years ago let alone 5 months ago but I know what happened. And as for her dedicating the book to her son, it doesn't bother me because life isn't all roses. It's reality and whatever done in the dark will come to the light. She's real and keeping it real. Her son will know about life and what goes on soon enough. Who out there is perfect or hasn't done things that they aren't proud of. She just has the heart to share. The game is what it is-loyalty/codes of honor-please don't make me laugh everyone S$#@ on everyone you just don't always hear about it.

Who are we to judge this woman? True she made a couple of bad decisions, but ya'll are acting like we haven't done some crazy things when you were young. She craved attention and it just so happens it was with the hip hop industry. That's no different than a young high school girl trying to get the attention of the star athlete or a college girl trying to get the attention of frat boy or a star athlete. Everybody is acting like these rappers and singers are saints. They are no better than you and me. They just happened to been lucky and got a deal in the hip-hop industry.
Instead of judging people, we all need to realize that things happen for a reason. We shall never know what God's plan is for us or this world.

Posted by: Chrissy at January 31, 2006 2:43 PM

I read the book yesterday. I keep thinking about her saying that Magic Johnson all of a sudden helped her out at her lowest point. I wonder did she do him too. If so, what about everyone she messed with after that. Are Xzibit and Usher all HIV positive now. She was broke and desperate at that time and she hasn't been using her better judgement earlier in the book. Hmmmmmm, I wonder.

Posted by: food for thought at February 6, 2006 11:13 AM

i read this book, and i really could relate to the childhood traumas, and i appreciated her honesty. When you feel your mother does not love you, and she shows that, then there are so many mistakes that you make. Your mind is already phucked up because your heart is broke. Then you go out into the world seeking love, and you'll do almost anything to get it, and this is what she did. In reading this book, I thought that she glamorized her sex capades too tough. For someone who regretted those acts, she put much on it, and some of it, sounded exciting. She claimed to write this book for young sistas to make them aware of the dangers of the entertainment business, but my guess is that some young girls may read this book, and figure that she had fun, and just made a few mistakes. Name dropping is never good, but if she hadn't dropped any names, would the book be selling? I, too wonder what Ray J's mother thought about what she'd written about her son. This family has always tried to keep their business private, and she exposed them. I thought she was brief, but hard on Dr. Dre. About Murder, Inc. sounds about right. Right on Jay Z, and Xzibit. So what if P Diddy partied at a gay club, it doesn't mean he's gay. I could go on and on, but I'm not. I think karrine spoke too much, and for the wrong reasons. I don't think it was for young girls, I think it was for a house in the Hollywood Hills, with a Mercedes, Range Rover, and shopping sprees. Based on how she put herself out there, and exposed the game, intelligently, she should be concerned about her safety. The poeple in the book may not want to retaliate against her, but there are so many fools, or friends of, who for the notoriety, could possibly harm her. I would have tackled this situation a little bit different.

WHY WAS SHE TELLING HER BUSSINESS TO KOOL G RAPS WIFE?

WHO THE HELL IS A MA BARKER ANYWAY?

I think the book was excellent and I read it over the weekend. I can't judge, but damn! You could only imagine what goes on behind hip hop doors and she put it out there for everyone to read. I still can't believe how some of these men, that look so happy with their wives (Like S. O'Neal), could be so stupid. I don't feel sorry for her nor do I applaud her. Her life is exactly that, HER LIFE. It's cool that she was honest with it. I'm still curious to know who the heck is PAPA!???

I know everyone is wondering about the porno film Superhead stars in, it is called " Mr. Marcus cool spot". You can find it on E-bay for $8.99 free shipping. Just type in Karrine Steffans or Superhead. Watch her nasty unshaven pubic hair, hemorrhoids and what looks like a painful blow job she gives to Mr. Marcus. See What the likes of Jay-z and countless other stars have seen and experienced.

Posted by: Pratt at March 10, 2006 5:12 PM

Wow, I just finished reading miss Karrine's book. Yeah I'm a bit late. I'm reading all of the comments posted on the message board. It really disturbs me how people say what they would never do and how they pass judgements onto others like its out of style. I'm 22yrs old and one thing that I have learned to realize is that, you know where you have been but you don't know where you are going. Nobody's perfect. We all have skeletons in our closet, I commend her for telling her story and the many obstacles she has faced. It's just that she was fortunate enough to prosper from it also. You can't knock her hustle. Everyone's misconception of her is really bad. If you read the book it's not all about sexual exploitation. She's talking about how she missed a chapter in her life. The trials and tribulations she had to encounter in order for God to get her back on her feet again. It's not new, who is'nt sleeping with who in Hollywood?. Karrine's writes her book now everyone has something to say. At the end of the day she doesn't care about what we think. She's laughing all the way to the bank. Now who has the last laugh. Goodluck Karrine. Godbless!!!!

Posted by: Denise at March 14, 2006 12:58 PM

first off i did feel kinda of sorry for her at the beginning of the book, but as i cont. to read it i figure she was hoe, and she was loving it and the only reason shes tryna change her ways is because the puzzy got too many miles on it and shes all fuked out. shes a sad fukin case and her son should have been takin away from her long time ago. and this papa person im wondering if its WILL SMITH, i guess we will never know. damn its sad to say that she was fukin all those dudes. and they all treated her like the whore she was in the end. SHAQ AND ICE T were the only two that really gave a fuk about her tired ass.i dont know whats true and whats false about this book but how she say KOOL G made her suck him up 2 hours at a time, i dont see how it was a problem then, when thats all she continue to do throughout her years of fuckin all these celebrities.i figure shes a hoe and she cant help it. and she got the nerve to say her mom was a slut, shit i guess she got it honest.. one last thing u really need to think about home schooling your son because hes going to be pick on for a long ass time

Posted by: miami's finest at March 23, 2006 4:38 PM

i really liked the book. She know that sh made a mistake n yea she said that she would do it again. And yea she might look like a hoe but i dont think so, i think she is a beautiful strong black women that is horny all the time!!!

Posted by: shannette at March 29, 2006 2:32 PM

She a hoe, and everybody who read the book know. If you fukk for money you a hoe.

Now that being said, what supastar's wife don't know they are getting mush ass on the side. Diddy, Ja, Shaq, and everybody else mention in the book, I don't care if them niggas is telling they wives they ain't doing it, they know.

I don't feel sorry for her, I don't want to judge her, I just read the book to see who she was putting on blast. And I refuse to believe that these supastat niggas don't talk to each other. You mean to tell me X didn't know she was a ho? I think they all in some way knew she was a ho and they played her to get some supahead, and she played them to get some cash or the "rush" of having a rapper's dick in her mouth. Whateva.

Jay was the ONLY smart nigga in that book. he strapped up and he treated her exactly like she was susposed to be treated at the time, I cute chick who like to suck dick. No disrespect, but cmon you can't tell me that's not who she was.

Now she says her life is straight and she no longer gets down like that, good for her. More power to her.

And finally, to all yall hos who said yall wish yall could have done what she did, think about what you are saying. You are degrading yourself for money and at the end of the day you aren't anything more than a hoe. If you proud to be a hoe, come a look me up, I can get some work for you, 14th street needs some new hookers.

Posted by: K at March 31, 2006 3:03 PM

I think Karrine Stephens aka "Superhead" (SMH)doesnot give a damn about empowering young women, by giving them a peak into her a goldigging/prostitute lifestyle, in order for them not to make similar mistakes.If she was really interested in telling her story, in order to help council young girls, she would have never named names. I think her main focus, which i think she has maintained from her days as a video model, Is to make money. Back then she used sex as a way to get paid, now she is using, a pen and a pad to destroy lives in order to make a buck.She is using this book, as a way to get paid, and she doesnt care whether her son, family, celebrities, or even herself gets hurt in the process. The thing i find interesting about her situation is, she is upset because a porn star is bootlegging a early porno she made, and is not sharing the profits with her, but yet she is using puffy, jigga, ja rule and those guys in order to put money in her pocket, and im sure shes not giving them a cent. I hope young girls pick up her book and read it (from a library)So they realize what real trash is all about, So they can use their mental talents to improve their situation, as oppose to turning tricks in order to drive in a benz. The sad thing is Karrine Stephens representsis millions of girls. Who feel the only way they can make money, or have an impact, is by laying on their backs. Drop the lip balm and pick up a book, hopefully not superheads.

"HER BOOK IS SO CONTRADICTIVE ITS NOT FUNNY"

come on yall.

we all know auto biographys rarely read like a book, so "info" must be splashed here and there to make it more "storybook" like. dig into yourselves and ask "does this book make sense"? i didnt go into the book saying she was a liar or anything, its just that in my AP classes, we are taught to learn about the author through their works, and her writing style is just, well, raggedy. Its like she didnt even remember facts about her own life. i couldnt help but feel like she threw random things in there to purposely embarass people. okay, think about this, in her VIBE spread, she metions her son having six fingers and her dreaming before he was even born that he would be born this way. HOWEVER, she fails to mentionthis detail in the book, while she claims to have prayed to god for a son as a sign for her to leave G. I'm sorry, but if you dreamed your son would be born with an extra finger, and it came true, how could you just "forget" that tidbit when writing your book? superhead gives every magazine and radio show a new lie to hook them onto her. she wanted the sex. she sucked gotti's dick so she could stay on a video shoot. she calls that abuse? she did it willingly. what a waste of the .50 cents it took to buy that book on blackexpressions.com

Karrine did what she had to do hate or love it. There are alot of females that did what she did, strippers, prostitutes, whoever. And they did it for the fame and money, like she did. I read the book, got it from my neighbor. She did what she did willingly, but like I said you have some that did the same thing so whoever judges should really pay close attention to what they say cause who knows you might be in that same situation just to make a bill paid, to take care of your child, or even just to make a living period. And the guys that slept with her that was married can't be judged either cause men are going to be men anyway. It's the woman that's going to allow them to do what they do. And the stars have money, so why do you think the wives are still there? Them wifes are no better, they are not there through thick and thin, sickness and in health, they are there for the money and wealth. Well except for Whitney and Bobby, that's the other way around, LOL. I made alot of mistakes in my life and I thank God that my wife is still there for me even though I am not rich at all. Now that's thick and thin. Karrine had alot of flaws in her life. She got taken advantage of, and even at the same time did alot of things willingly. I hope that what she done she learned from it and really put GOD 1st cause she really needs him for the sake of her and the son. Karrine you are in my prayers, now that's real talk...... Be easy.

I think that it's really sad that people are so quick to judge others. I certainly don't condone what Karrine has done in her life, but God doesn't define one sin as worse than another. All of us who have told a little white lie are sinners just as equally as she is. The difference is that she is able to tell people about it and many people sweep it under the rug. I would never condemn anyone who has lived through the kind of trauma that she has endured in her life, ESPECIALLY when she did a complete 180 as she did. Everyone stumbles and some people fall down and it takes some longer to get back up than others, but I think that as soon as we stop judging others, stop looking down our noses at them and start wanting help them get back up, the better off we will be. People condemn others because it makes them feel better about their own insecurities and they are extremely willing to shine the spotlight on others, as long as it takes the focus off of their own flaws. Who knows? If we were more accepting when people bared their souls in an attempt to turn their life around, don't you think that more people would turn over a new leaf without the fear of being judged? Remember, nobody that's reading this has earned the place of Lord of the Heavens and Earth and thereby has not earned the right to be judged. Only He can do that... Show others the love an compassion that you would want to be shown.

IT IS PROBABLY A YEAR LATER (YEAH, I THINK THAT IT'S AT LEAST A YEAR) AND I AM JUST NOW COMPLETEING THIS BOOK. I HAVE PRETTY MUCH VIEWED IT AS A REAL LIFE "COLDEST WINTER EVER" (SUPER BOOK BY SISTAH SOLDIER). I HAVE BECOME OVERLY FIXATED ON THIS KARRINE STEFFANS AND HER "CONFESSIONS" BOOK, THUS ME BEING ON THIS SITE - READING COMMENTS AND RESPONSES. BUT THE ONE THING THAT REALLY MAKES ME WANT TO RESPOND IS HAVING WATCHED A SNIPPIT FROM THE TYRA BANKS SHOW WHERE TYRA INTERVIEWED KARRINE. I FELT LIKE PEOPLE, INCLUDING TYRA AND MAINLY FEMALES, ARE ACTING SO VERY UPSET AT KARRINE FOR WRITING THIS BOOK. ALL THE THINGS BEING SAID THAT SHE'S A WHORE, STUPID ETC ARE ALL THINGS THAT THE GIRL ADMITS AND ACKNOWLEDGES. I FIND IT DISTURBING THAT, WE AS A SOCIETY CANNOT ACCEPT A PERSON WHO IS WILLING AND OR TRYING TO MAKE A CHANGE. ANYTIME SOMEONE WANTS TO RIGHT A WRONG, WE SHOULD ENCOURAGE THAT. SOME OF THE THINGS THIS WOMAN DID WERE DEFINATELY UNIMAGINABLE FOR ME, MYSELF, HOWEVER, I HAD A CHILDHOOD BESTFRIEND THAT DID A GOOD BIT OF THIS STUFF AND BELIEVE ME, SHE DID IT ALL FOR FREE AND DEFINATELY NOT WITH CELEBRITIES!!! THAT'S THE POINT THAT I THINK MOST PEOPLE ARE MISSING. KARRINE IS NOT THE FIRST "VIDEO HOE" OR "GROUPIE". SHE IS NOT THE FIRST WOMAN TO SLEEP WITH A MARRIED MAN OR MARRIED MEN. SHE IS NOT THE FIRST FEMALE TO FANTICIZE ABOUT BEING W/ A CELEB AND THEN REALLY HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY TO DO SO. SHE IS A PERSON WHOM MANY OF US ALREADY KNOW!!! SHE HAS TAKEN HER BAD SITUATIONS AND MADE GOOD USE OF IT. WHETHER OR NOT SHE IS SINCERE, HER BOOK HAS BEEN READ BY MANY AND SOME YOUNG, LOST, ABUSED, NEGLECTED GIRL, WILL GET A MESSAGE FROM IT AND THAT'S WHAT EVERYONE SHOULD WANT. OUR RACE HAS EMBRACED HAS BECOME SO FIXED ON CELEBRITY LIVING/LIVESTYLES THAT WE HAVE PRETTY MUCH RAPED OURSELVES FROM EMBRACING/PROMOTING AND EVEN TEACHING SELF RESPECT. THESE VIDEOS AND MUSIC ARE ENTICING OUR CHILDREN AND IT WILL ONLY LEAD TO MORE AND MORE YIZETTE SANTIAGOS. KARRINE IS NOT THE PROBLEM!!! WE DON'T WANT TO REALLY IDENTIFY WHAT THE TRUE ISSUE IS B/C IT WOULD BE GOING AGAINST OUR EVER SO PRECIOUS "HIP HOP" "GHETTO/GANSTER" LIFESTYLES. AND WE SHO DON'T WANT TO DO THAT!!!! HER WRITING THIS BOOK, IN MY OPINION IS A GOOD THING, IT SHOULD HAVE BEEN THE START TO A LOT OF VERY GOOD INTELLECTUAL DISCUSSIONS AND CONVERSATIONS STARTING LIKE THIS: BLACK PEOPLE, STOP DOING ANY AND EVERYTHING FOR MONEY!!! BLACK PEOPLE, STOP DEGRADING OURSELVES BY JIRATING HALF NAKED IN MUSIC VIDEOS AND BLOWING CLOUDS OF WEED SMOKE!! BLACK MEN, TEACH YOUR BOYS HOW TO BE RESPECTABLE MEN AND MORE IMPORTANTLY, TEACH YOUR DAUGHTERS HOW THEY ARE SUPPOSED TO BE TREATED!! BLACK PEOPLE, LET'S GET BACK TO BEING THE VERY PRIDEFUL PEOPLE THAT WE ONCE WERE.....SHOW WHITE AMERICA THAT WE ARE MORE THAN JUST THIER MONEY MAKERS THAT WE ARE A PEOPLE OF SUBSTANCE. THAT'S WHAT THIS BOOK SHOULD HAVE BROUGHT ABOUT!!!

I read this book in 2 days. The first thing I did was get online to see what others thought. I have to admit that there are things in the book that are hard for me to believe. Hollywood is a lifestyle that I chose to leave behind. I worked in Television for 5 years and decided that there were things I was not willing to do to make it to the mountain top. In fact, the mountain top is not always what it seems. So I went back to school got another degree (MA) and I am doing what stars could only imagine. I change lives....not because of a video or $10,000 but I make stars each and everyday....and I make money doing it. I live by this statement " If you are bought you can always be sold" So there are only really very few stars....they are the ones that make it happen....and they are not seen.....hint hint....the real people are never seen....so thats why PAPA is a secret...People power is what everyone who wasnt mentioned in the book has, you feel me...POWER....who really has it...

I thought the book was real as hell, and my hat goes off to you Karrine Stephens because you kept it real, you realized your faults, and flaws, and you did something about it. I got mad props for you.

I gotta give it to TLG for the pimpslap comment of this discussion. They're absolutely right that our present state of the hip-hop culture is and will create more "Superheads". I guess motherfuckers won't be happy until it's their daughter. But, like most niggas, I should use "niggers", because we don't even deserve the "as" anymore, they'll probably blame it on someone else, the mother of their child or the "white man". Get control of your children and this ignorant ass direction that we've taken hip-hop,I mean these niggas ain't even good criminals no more.When we were first jumping in, and to this day the goal was not to get caught or famous, because famous gangsters are in jail, a casket, or retirement. These motherfuckers look at getting locked up like a badge of honor, all the fuck it shows is you were slipping enough or dumb enough to get caught by some dumb ass cop who became a cop because he was too dumb to do something else. Now,back to "Superheads" of the future, there's nothing wrong with being a freak once you're grown and SANE, I'm a freak, but I don't need my daughter knowing how to pop her "P" before she knows how to do Algebra.

I READ THIS BOOK IN ONE DAY ALSO. I DON'T LIVE IN HOLLYWOOD NOR DO I WANT TO LIVE THAT LIFESTYLE. I HAVE SEEN KARRINE STEPHAN BEING INTERVIEWED ON MANY TELEVISION SHOWS. I HAVE ALSO HEARD WHAT DIFFERENT PEOPLE HAVE TO SAY. THE FUNNY THING IS HOW PEOPLE JUDGE HER FOR DOING THE SAME THINGS THESE RAPPERS DO ALL THE TIME. SHE SLEEP WITH THESE GUYS AND MADE MONEY BY TALKING ABOUT IT. RAPPERS DO IT ALL THE TIME AND PEOPLE BUY THIER CD'S AND DANCE IN THE CLUB TO IT. BUT NOW THAT THE SHOE IS ON THE OTHER FOOT, PEOPLE WANT TO JUDGE HER. SHE IS JUST TRYING TO SELL A BOOK THE SAME WAY RAPPERS ARE TRYING TO SELL CD'S. IF JA RULE, JZ, IRV GOTTI, ETC. HAD WROTE A SONG AND MENTIONED HER AND THEIR SEX LIVES THEN IT WOULD BE ALL GOOD, BUT SHE JUST BEAT THEM TO THE PUNCH AND EVERYONE HAS SOMETHING BAD TO SAY ABOUT IT. THIS IS JUST A DOUBLE STANDARD. DON'T GET ME WRONG, I DO THINK THAT SHE IS NASTY, BUT I ALSO THINK THAT ANYONE WHO SLEPT WITH HER IS JUST AS NASTY.

Posted by: SUMMER STALK at October 30, 2006 1:23 PM

I READ HER BOOK AND AT THE BEGINNING I FELT BAD AND ALL BUT AS I READ MORE AND MORE OF THE BOOK I REALIZED THAT SHE BROUGHT EVERYTHING ON HERSELF AND I HAVE NO PITY FOR HER, BUT, FOR HER SON! I ALSO NOTICED IN THE BOOK THAT EVERY CELEBRITY SHE MENTIONED SO-CALLED APPROACHED HER WHICH SEEMS TO ME AS A LIE OR EITHER THEY HAD ALREADY HEARD ABOUT HER SUPERHEAD!!!!SHE TALKS ABOUT HOW EVERYONE DISSED HER BECAUSE OBVIOUSLY SHE WAS JUST A PIECE OF MEAT, NOTHING MORE!! SHE GOT WHAT SHE DESERVED!!CANT TURN A WHORE INTO A HOUSE WIFE

Posted by: NI NI at December 2, 2006 3:52 PM
