Lil Kim Not Happy With Notorious

0109lilbig.jpg Notorious is on the big screen, and everyone in the shadow of the late rapper is starting to speak out. Well, at least Lil Kim is—who allegedly hasn't even seen the movie (but read an early script). She said in a statement: "The film studio and producers involved were more concerned about painting me as a 'character' to create a more interesting story line. Regardless of the many lies in the movie and false portrayal of me to help carry a story line through, I will still continue to carry his legacy through my hard work and music." She also said in an interview that she "believed Big's wife, Faith Evans, and his mother, Voletta Wallace, were behind the snub." In return, Biggie's mom declared: "This is not a Lil Kim movie. This is a Christopher Wallace movie. It has nothing to do with Lil Kim. If she's disappointed and upset, that is her problem." The AP has video from the film, and talks to some of the people involved.

Shocking, a movie trying to create a more interesting storyline!

Biggie's mom, Voletta Wallace, gave a shout out to the actress who played Lil Kim at the BAM screening. I forget exactly what she said, but it was something about how she was beautiful etc.

"The film studio and producers involved were more concerned about painting me as a 'character' to create a more interesting story line."

Honey, you're a rapper, they could have painted you as a rock and it would make for a more interesting story line.

15 minutes over.

Has anyone asked Craig Mack how he feels?

I doubt he could hear you cause he's got the new flava in his ear.

mrmanhattan, you disgusting animal:

1. you are making a statement as f rappers are known for being extremely boring or something, as if you're talking about accountants or math teachers or something.
saying someone is obviously not interesting because they're a rapper makes no sense.

2. um, little kim has been around for a very long time and is very well known, she is nowhere near 15 minutes, what THE HELL are you talking about.

you just said two retarded things for no reason what is the point of that.

wow - friend of lil' kims? or is that you lil kim?

1. More interesting than accountants? You must have been living under a rock (with no investments, no home and no private sector job) for the last ten years to think that. Enron, WorldCom, Fannie, Freddie, Lehman (need I go on?)

2. Its a play on an Andy Warhol quote, ask your parents.

YES no shit it's an andy warhol quote but it's not a play on it at all. To quote someone above, "I dont really care about this article nor am I a lil kim fan but she has been around since 1994, has sold millions of albums, has won a grammy (and been nominated another 5 or 6 times) and has collaborated with some of the biggest names today.

Seems like a little more then 15 minutes..."

idiot.

...was found guilty of conspiracy and perjury, spent a year in a can etc. etc. Really busy gal.

>> YES no shit it's an andy warhol quote but it's not a play on it at all.

NO, its NOT an Andy Warhol quote, (did you get to meet Andy? He had a sense of humor so dry you could watch your drink evaporate standing in front of him). His quote was "In the future, everyone will be famous for fifteen minutes".

My post was a play on that in that Lil Kim has had FAR MORE than her deserved fifteen minutes (your "since 1994" quote only reinforced my point).

Oh, and thanks for the "disgusting animal" thing. So many people mistake me for a mere human.

I dont really care about this article nor am I a lil kim fan but she has been around since 1994, has sold millions of albums, has won a grammy (and been nominated another 5 or 6 times) and has collaborated with some of the biggest names today.

Seems like a little more then 15 minutes...

So, she wasn't a crack peddling whore?

No, I think she was just a regular whore who peddled her crack. she was a pretty good rapper though. Unlike Aaron Carter and Soulja Boy.

What's the difference between a drug dealer and a prostitute?


The prostitute can wash her crack and sell it again.

Although highly likely she can sell it again without washing it!

Soulja boy sold like mad.

I mean have you sold 5 million of anything?

Like Barnum said:

"Nobody ever went broke underestimating the taste of the American public."

ha. matty resurfaces to defend soulja boy. sweet.

and mr. manhattan, you're annoying as hell. find an appropriate quote to express that.

Didn't she bleach her skin to the color of crack rock?

She should be more upset at her plastic surgeon.
