Cautionary tales
By MortensOrchid
Celebrity tell all books are still juicy even after all these years, and Karrine Steffans's book is no exception. This is a cautionary tale about what happens when you don't look beyond the bright lights and glamour of the celebrity world and face certain harsh realities, and what it does to women who come into it as a hanger on.
Karrine Steffans was born in St. Thomas and ran away from home as a teenager escaping the poverty of her childhood. Like a lot who were on her path, she went into the glamorous world of hip hop, stripping and modeling in order to support herself and then later her son. She eventually went to appearing in hip hop videos and made her way into stardom, marrying and divorcing her abusive, rapper husband Kool G Rap. Her book chronicles her relationships with her ex husband, and eventually with a variety of other rappers and professional athletes, including Jay-Z, DMX, Bobby Brown, Ja Rule, Shaquille O'Neil, Usher, P Diddy.
Why did she end up used, abused and hung out to dry by them (or any other)? Because she wanted to be loved, and she thought this is what you do to be loved in this world. Her most famous statement was that she had wives calling her looking for their husbands. When she told the wives that she had never even met their husband(s), their response was "Oh, well you will soon then." What does this say about the culture of celebrity and being a celebrity wife? That you have to accept certain things that ordinary women do not if you want to live this life of glitz and glamour and perks. She lived her life in all caps before age 25 like all women have who are in the rock n' roll / hip hop world, and then you grow up and realize it's not what it seems and you want a real man who deserves you rather than a guy like this. The problem is finding one. And she's still here, and has made a nice career out of writing and giving advice to women on how to be hot and sexy. She took lemons and made lemonade, for that we can admire her.

Wow+Deep= 5 star book!!!
By Adreonna F
I am late when it comes to reading Confessions of a Video Vixen especially since I read Vindicated first. I was scrolling through the comments section and noticed a reader suggesting that readers pick up Confessions of a Video Vixen to read why Karrine became a person who thought violence was normal and continued to stay in and return to abusive relationships.
When it comes to why Karrine wrote Confessions of a Video Vixen, I didn’t believe that Karrine woke up one day thought “I’m going to go sleep with Ja Rule, Usher, Diddy, and others, so I can write a book about it”. One lesson I have learned about stories is that there always more to them and that is the case with this book.
Confessions of a Video Vixen is a story about a girl who endured physical, mental, and emotional abuse from mother and it began a cycle for Karrine that continued as she found herself in abusive relationships. Karrine’s mother put in her mind that she was unwanted, unloved, and unworthy.
In my honest opinion, Karrine went looking for love in all the wrong places because of foundation built for her was weak. Karrine’s mother and ex told her constantly how she was unloved and the cycle continued in this book and her other books. In this book, Karrine also battled depression, alcoholism, and drug addiction that built on the destructive cycle she was already on.
I believe one of the saddest moments in this book outside of Karrine’s mother abusing her and lowering her self-esteem was how her ex (who she met when she was 17 while stripping) kicked her out while she was pregnant because of an argument and before she left, he demanded that she cook a steak for him and the only thing he cared about was making sure his steak didn’t get burned.
Another sad moment in the book was when Karrine was being put out of her home and she called a few of the guys she had hooked up with and partied with and asked them for money so she and her baby wouldn’t be homeless and they didn’t seem to care. According to her, they provided thousands of dollars for shopping sprees and other things, but when she really needed help they could only spare her a few hundred dollars. Karrine learned that these guys were just using her and turned to hustling in order to feed her son because she didn’t have any money. It was a lesson that Karrine had to learn the hard way when it came to the men she thought really cared about her.
It was amazing reading the biography of Karrine’s life and reading the “more” to her story. This book is worth the five stars that I’m giving it. I see why it was a New York Best Seller. I’m glad Karrine wrote this book to show just what goes on behind the scenes at video shoots and it’s more to them than shooting fun music videos and meeting so called cool people.
One last thing: I received Vindicated and read it in two days at the beginning of June and by the end of June, I had bought five of Karrine’s books. When I start reading Karrine’s books I read them in two days or less because I can’t put them down. It’s nothing for me to lose interest quickly in a book, but that’s not the case with this book because, like Vindicated it was one of the best ones I have read. I suggest this book and Karrine’s other books to anyone who is looking to read interesting, informative, and entertaining books.

hmm.
By Alexis
When I first heard about the book, I knew I had to buy it to see what all the hype was about. And of course, to read about all the celebrities Karrine Steffans had sex with. Anyway, after reading this book, which might I add was a very quick read, I've come to the conclusion that this woman still has a plethora of issues and she needs to seek professional help, immediately. There is no way Miss Steffans has healed by simply writing a book, espcially because she seems a bit delusional in the way she describes each sexual relation she has with these men, as if these numerous casual sexual relations are somehow normal. Clearly, the sex equals love for her, which can easily become a recipe for disaster in every imaginable way - physically, emotionally, psychologically, spiritually, and mentally.
Let me tell Miss Steffan's story in a nutshell: she was abused and raped, became a stripper, had no sense of guidance, self-worth or self-esteem, and just wanted to be accepted and loved, so she continued letting people get the best of her by using sex, the only thing she truly knew about and was good at. Karrine is no different from women we all know in our lives. We all know someone who represents a Karrine: a young woman who wanders desperately and aimlessly from bed to bed, man to man, looking for something all the money in the world couldn't find. It's all one in the same, except Karrine just so happens to have celebrities attached to her story.
Do I think that it's right that she called out all these people? I don't know. They should've known as well as she what they were getting themselves into. While reading the book, I sensed that she's a chick on a mission; the way she was basically passed around in the entertainment industry probably prompted her to get back at the many men who 'got' her and used her. But at the end of the day, I'm sure these men really don't give a damn that she exposed their story, because they 'been had' her. She gave it up quick. And they threw her out, just like that.
I think, and I've heard, that alot of her story was exaggerated, and I believe it. I also think that, no matter what Karrine says or does, she will always be known as a video ho. A prostitute. The biggest, most infamous jump-off of the 90s perhaps. She will always be looked at in that way. And when she says she has found God? I think that's some straight bull. She says she still parties, and I read an interview she did where she said she still "does it to death...then it's right back to being a mom." And she was referring to smoking. Come again?
It all comes down to one thing - the woman is still in major denial. She still needs some kind of psychological evaluation, if she has not had one already. Speaking of psychological evaluations, Miss Steffans might want to have one conducted on her son after he eventually (and he will) finds out just what exactly his mommy used to do. I'm sure the news will send him far over the edge.
