Karrine “Superhead” Steffans had the hip-hop industry buzzing back in 2005, when she put everybody on blast in a tell-all book, titled Confessions of a Video Vixen, in which she discussed her sexual escapades with various celebrities.
It made her a celebrity herself, but also made many other rappers weary of getting close to her, and even messed up a few relationship as a result.
Apparently, according to a recently released video clip promoting her new book Satisfaction, Steffans reveals that her claims were all lies, fabricated to sell the book.
“I’m a writer. I write sh**. The ‘vixen’ doesn’t exist, but you can’t tell people that, because they don’t believe that. It was all fabricated,” Superhead says in the clip, filmed in a bathroom.
Wearing nothing but a bra and panties, the author pleads for anonymity, as she continues her rant, explaining that she never wanted to be in the spotlight for what she’s written.
“I want to be anonymous,” she continued. “Authors are supposed to be anonymous. We’re not supposed to be on TV. We’re not supposed to be doing any of those things. We’re supposed be sitting down, getting drunk, smoking opiates, writing some amazing sh**. That’s what we all do … That’s what makes us different than everybody else.”
One of the men she focused on in her book debut was legendary MC, Kool G Rap, who is also the father of her son. In her book, she accuses him of physical and sexual abuse.
Now that Steffans has confessed about the validity of her widely-circulated claims in print, G Rap has responded, saying that he never felt the need to defend himself from her allegations, because he found strength in his knowledge of his innocence.
“In her first book, she mixed lies with truth, and captured an audience that wasn’t able to decipher what was true from what was false,” the rapper tells AllHipHop.com. “If I feel I’m not guilty of anything, I’m not going to vigorously defend myself, I know what it is. It seemed like her story was a story and that’s it. It’s always two sides to a story. It’s her story, my side of the story, and the truth. And I would consider my story more closer to the truth.
“I’m not trying to put out a book. If I did put out a book, it wouldn’t have anything to do with any of that,” G Rap continued.
Steffans’ upcoming book, Satisfaction, is a sex-help book, aimed at helping couples play out their wildest sexual fantasies. It drops in August, and is available for pre-order now at Amazon.com.
