Superhead = Super Stupid


This is a repost of an article I did over today at Soul Sis-Star Reviews....

[On] my other blog I said I was about to review "Panther", which I still will, but I took a little detour off on the DVD "Kiss And Tail", which starts off being about video girls and groupies for about 15 minutes, then veers off into a bombardment against Superhead, aka Karrine Steffans, author of "Confessions of a Video Vixen" and "The Vixen Diaries".

I want to make it clear that I have ZERO love for Karrine, and it's not because of her sexual exploits. It is because of her as of late consistent 'holier than thou' attitude that I have read about and seen in interviews. I also have no respect for those who want to be famous and known at any cost whatsoever.

You see, I used to be heavily involved in rap on the business side. These dudes would come at you every day, every which way till Sunday. I don't believe they even cared about who you were or what you really looked like, as long as they felt you were even semi-attractive. They just wanted to see if they could get it. For Karrine to act like she cured cancer or something just by getting these guys that practically anyone could get, then blabbing about it to the whole world and acting like she did something special is just so f*cking ridiculous to me. Add that to the fact that she always refers to herself as "a New York Times bestselling author". Oh really, Toni Morrison? Talk to me when you write a book about something besides whose peen you put your mouth on.

Let's just say that it is welcoming to see her get a taste of her own medicine. The folks in this film are for reals, for reals, and they don't hold back, which I absolutely love. It is not speculation, but from the horses' mouth based on actual experiences and interaction with her.


Save the comments about "you have to respect her hustle!". I don't respect anyone that lies about having a baby to get money (see Ma Barker), lies about having been pregnant numerous times (see Darius McCrary aka Eddie Winslow), lies about not having sex with Jay Z (see her own words in her first book) lies about doing porno (see Mr. Marcus and some Samoan porn star dude whose name I forgot) lies about being married, lies about how long she was doing said activities, and lies about almost everything except f*cking, from what I can see.

She has the audacity to say that the things she did like getting paid $200 by Murder, Inc. to give blow jobs to everyone for the day was "Like being in college. I had just got a divorce, so I got a little wild. I deserved that" Ummm....noooo, that is not like college, sorry.

Also this: "I had to do these things. It was L.A., L.A. does this to you. If I didn't do these things I would have died". Whatever, B. I have lived in L.A. off and on for 20 years, and guess what? I never had to s*ck a d*ck to pay the rent, no matter how hard it got. You know why? Cause I didn't want to!

Though the film can get repetitive, and really won't hold a lot of interest unless you know about Karrine Steffans or the folks she juked, it is nice to see a woman that is a complete psycho and has ruined so many people with her ugliness get her comeuppance. You can tell narrator Wendy Williams is loving every minute of telling all of the salacious details as well.

Everyone in this film pretty much agrees that this woman could not have any friends--and I could see all of the anger and hurt of betrayal from those on film that testified. Like Ja Rule said, "Yes, you are famous, but you are not a star. A star is someone you want to emulate, someone that has something you wish you had. I don't think anyone wants to be like Karrine".

Amen.

This nit makes my damn stomach turn. I'm surprised someone hasn't put their foot up her ass by now. She's a lost cause, and black women everywhere should collectively flip this chick the bird!

This is one of those cases where someone is trying to glorify their sin of stupidity. Being whorish isn't difficult. She proves that very well.

No words girl. For real. This broad needs to just pack up her tent and go on about her business.

I share your same sentiment regarding Karinne. I hate it when people want you to not associate them with the same thing that they are steadily hustling to make a name for themselves. It's kinda like you can't get rich off of selling drugs and then get mad that folks call you a drug dealer... folks are a trip.

Ma Baker when in on her. She was like 'If I see her in the streets it's on'. I would probably feel that way too since she was giving this chick money to help her take care of a fake child.

That was wild.

What is the difference between one who sells their body on the street corner for a little of nothing and one who sales their body in the most luxurious locales around the world for thousands of dollars? Absolutely nothing.

Superhead needs to go somewhere and sit down with that foolishess. She's walking around like she just cured cancer.

And the Times best seller list is based entirely on book sells, not content or quality. And people just love to read about foolishness.

@everyone: LOVE the comments....glad i am not alone in my thinking

I heard the interview she did for Hot 97. when a woman called and put her on the spot about the daughter she didn't talk about in the book, she(Karrine) walked out on the interview.

I really can't judge her for not being strong enough to break the vicious cycle she was born into,,,,she's an adult, she can take what she ditches out, and when it comes rolling back to her,,,its a mutha! But I pray that she gets help, if not for her then at least for the sake of her children so they inherit her baggage.

To be honest though, the only 2 things that bothers me is the lil' girls who might stumble on her supposedly "wealth of literature" god forbids and consider her overview on life "the gospel truth".

The other thing is the claim that she abuses her child,,,,if its true, I hope something gets done.

Invisible Woman said...

@harlepolis: that is what i feel bad about too, her son. in the film darius said that his spirit was so broken...it made me sad.

I thought this video was her project, now I got to check it out.

Okay, Okay its easy to bash the whore of Babylon, but this blog is intelligent, right? There are a thousand Karrine Stephens! I moved to New York City from New Orleans and you are right about one thing "anybody can get the men she listed in both her books, sorry Beyonce". I was approached by many of the men she listed as "benefactors". While I wanted to be respected for my written talent, I CHOSE not to entertain these men. So my real question is, Isn't this movie coonery and just as demeaning as what she did?
