Confessions of a Video Vixen

Product Information

In 2015, ten years after the release of her first book, Steffans published Vindicated: Confessions of a Video Vixen, Ten Years Later, with a foreword by King magazine founder Datwon Thomas. To calculate the overall star rating and percentage breakdown by star, we don’t use a simple average. This is a compelling story and includes fascinating stories about Karrine Steffan’s interactions with and thoughts about celebrities. It was a wild roller-coaster ride which included some of the hottest names in hip hop and Hollywood. In this no holds barred memoir, Karrine Steffans shares with readers the intimate moments of her life.

But you have to ask yourself, what else can you expect from someone who was abandoned by their father, emotionally neglected by both parents, isolated and beaten by her mother almost daily, raped at thirteen (and beaten afterwards by her mother for it), homeless, stripping by sixteen, married to an abusive rapper by 18 and with child by 21? Steffans is under no delusions about who and what she is- including the fact that she uses sexual favors to get what she wants like the love and attention she never got. Karrine's background kinda gives you an idea of why she made the choices she made when it came to her numerous failed relationships. Among many other media outlets Paula Zahn, Donny Deutsch, Tyra Banks, Bill O'Reilly, Geraldo Rivera, Kathy Lee Gifford and Hoda Kotb,and the queen of daytime herself, Oprah Winfrey have sought Karrine and helped propel her into the limelight and even contributed satirical editorial to HBO's Real Time with Bill Maher. There is nothing wrong with wanting the best in life and the best for your child but there are ways of getting it without opening your legs to every rich Tom,Dick,Harry.The book itself is horribly written - from the poor sentencing and paragraphing it was almost hard to believe the book was published this way, but i understand that the story was too juicy and scandalous to pass up. But the film and music video sets, swanky Hollywood and New York restaurants and trysts with the celebrities featured in the pages of People and In Touch magazines only touches the surface of Karrine Steffans' life. Bob Johansson has just sold his software company for a small fortune and is looking forward to a life of leisure.

She talked about alot of men in this book and I'm sure you can multiply that shit by 10 to get the true numbers. No part of this excerpt may be reproduced or reprinted without permission in writing from the publisher. Part tell-all, part cautionary tale, this emotionally charged memoir from a former video vixen nicknamed 'Superhead' goes beyond the glamour of celebrity to reveal the inner workings of the hip-hop dancer industry—from the physical and emotional abuse that's rampant in the industry, and which marked her own life—to the excessive use of drugs, sex and bling.She starts out blaming her mother and from then on anyone that does not let her get her way is the blame for where she ends up.

When things are free, passed along, given as a gift or loaned we're more prone to try things we may not normally try.

And to read in an interview that she likens herself Ernest Hemingway and Howard Hughes warrants even less respect. Even she makes the link between her affairs with numerous married men and her mom's past of sleeping with men and becoming impregnated to trap them (including her own father).

But that doesn't change the fact that he looks like a 14 year old boy and sounds like a rusty old man. I don’t fault her for telling her life story and feel sorry for the abuse she has suffered but if she wants to send a message there could have sermonized a little more plus certain things she thinks are romantic seem more to be her being taken advantage of more or just wrong Like the Jay-Z story or the Irv gotti story.Addressed in green ink on yellowish parchment with a purple seal, they are swiftly confiscated by his grisly aunt and uncle. I'm not at all convinced she has actually learned the lessons she claims to want to teach the rap video-girl wannabes that pick up her book. All she did was brag about all the celebs she slept with, and how they wives were at home knowing they were with her.
