Confessions of a Video Vixen by Karrine Steffans Book Summary

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.

Once the sought-after video girl, this sexy siren has helped multi-platinum artists, such as Jay-Z, R. Kelly and LL Cool J, sell millions of albums with her sensual dancing. In a word, Karrine was H-O-T. So hot that she made as much as $2500 a day in videos and was selected by well-known film director F. Gary Gray to co-star in his film, A Man Apart, starring Vin Diesel. 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.

Her journey is filled with physical abuse, rape, drug and alcohol abuse, homelessness and single motherhood—all by the age of 26. By sharing her story, Steffans hopes to shed light on an otherwise romanticised industry and help young women avoid the same pitfalls she encountered. If they're already in danger, she hopes to inspire them to find a way to dig themselves out of what she knows first-hand
to be a cycle of hopelessness and despair.

nothing can hold a good woman down. she had such a bad childhood dealing with her mother and being raped. it's so good to hear how well she's doing and how she overcame so many obstacles. She would be a good role model for young girls that went through what she went through.

Good detail. It was a good tell all book, I'm not sure if she's all there

Save your money!. I can't believe I wasted my time reading this! Furthermore, I can't believe by purchasing this book I also contributed to this woman's bank account! Makes me feel dirty!

MLC 1979. There is nothing in her book that people don't already know about that side of the music industry. Get your refunds!

Loved it. I don't know how people could say this wasn't well written. It was actually a lot better than I thought it would be, especially after reading the reviews. Like some people said, at one point she basically was a high end call girl, maybe still is, but she had a really hard life before all that, she didn't have a lot of guidance. Most people just want to read this bc of all the people she was with, and I think the names have already been covered. It's def worth reading yourself though. You find out tons of crazy stuff about these celebrities, if you choose to believe it. I do feel bad for her son though. :( although it does get better. Overall, it was super entertaining. Not great 'literature', but def not a waste of time.

Intoxicating!!!. ...need i say more.

She told it ALL!!!. I read this book when it first came out. I loved it. I couldn't put it down, I was pregnant and my boyfriend then was in jail and I read a lot. This is by far one of the best books that I've read. She told so much from highs to lows and I believe it was all true and I also believe she really opened the Public's eyes to the entertainment industry and the way they get down. It's a must read if your nosey and love to read.

Thank you. I’m so sorry for what you have been through.but you are definitely a Survivor . This is a awesome book thank you for sharing your experience with us !

Beautiful and touching! Must read!. Applaud her telling her story.

So good. It was a powerful story. So real and raw.

Meh. It was not too bad..I just felt like it was the same ol story everyone she met she loved she adored blah blah blah

This book is a 10/10. Amazing book! I read the whole thing in less than a day.

Confessions of a Video Vixen. Honest and inspiring! Thank you!!!

Wonderful. Very interesting I read the book in one night.

Confessions of a Video Vixen Review. Decent read… wish the book stuck to the stories in chronological order. Horrible ending. I believe all movies ‘based on real events’ have some fictional nature to them. I felt the story was 50% complete and chapters were missing context or follow-up on stories that were touched on earlier in the book. I was rooting for Karine… but I hate to admit that Tyra Banks was right. The celebrities exposed in the book are the #1 reason the book landed on the charts. Karine does deserve some respect and empathy for all that she’s been through though. Wishing her many blessings and peace!

Like reading a 5th grade book report.. This is the dumbest ho on the freakin planet. The only reason I'm going to finish reading this garbage is the fact that I actually wasted money purchasing it.

Good read...powerful message. In my opinion it is a well-written account of what Karrine claims to be truth. Whether you believe her or not, there is no denying that on the surface of this heart wrenching tale is a strong message to vulnerable young women with low self-esteem who may or may not have been victimized. Either way, the message here is priceless.

Fast read. I'd been eager to read this for a while and needed a mini escape from my life so I caved. First of all, wow. She holds nothing back and gives great detail about her life and it's sometimes heartbreaking events. Secondly, it definitely took me away in that page turning way I needed. But the pitfalls were the way she breezed through so quickly. I read tons of auto biographies and memoirs and prefer a different style. I just felt like I was sitting still and the story moved by too briskly and didn't bring me inside the emotions. All in all I was satisfied.

Thankyou. This is the first time that I ever read this and I just couldn't believe all of the incidents she has gone through.she is a big inspiration to me an she is a survivor . God bless you :)

Refreshing Surprise. It pays to read things for yourself. This book was rumored to be some vulgar sex ridden tell all. It was not, it was a book about her life, her story. I wish Karrine much success in all her endeavors.

Don't waste the money!!!. Missing entire chapters and many pages!!!!

Underrated Gem. Read this book in a day of purchasing, and wow. The storytelling but still being biographical just amazes me. Karrine’s approach to telling her story as descriptive as she did deserves a round of applause. I appreciate this account and knowing the risk that this is. Respect to all women, and Black women especially. No one’s story is the same nor will we live life the same, but perspectives in people’s lives such as this one is so inspiring. I loved every bit of it!

Review!. Waste of time and money!

honestly. was not all its hyped up to be it was cool tho

Confessions of a video vixen. I felt as though a lot of what I read was repetitive just with different men and also felt like a lot & a lot of people was left out !

Not worth it. This "memoir" is definitely not worth your time. I read it in roughly 3 hours after hearing all of the hype about it. A 7th grader could have written a better book and as a woman, I found it extremely offensive.

Confessing Prostitution. Overall it was good...written well...the chick basically confessed to being a high end call girl for the hip hop entertainment industry. Some of the stuff seems a little far fetched. Hard to believe some of the stories...

BIGGEST LIAR IN EXISTENCE!!!. This woman has made her $ by her dirty deeds, but mostly by telling lies about more than 1/2 these men, including KOOL G RAP!!! She used n tainted G Rap's name for her success! G said it from the gate, that she mixed lies with truth! Now she tryna stir up more BS by bloggin bout her "so-called" husband, then goin back n saying it wasn't meant for him.. This is her publicity stunt, as ALWAYS; she's doin all this to sell another demonic book of hers... But let's ask her y she left her baby in the middle of the street while the car was rollin.

Genius!. At first, I thought this book was a joke! But I actually feel like I know her now...her life Really was a mess, I can't believe how open and honest she was. This book is brilliant I couldn't put it down....

Confessions of a video vixen. Excellent read, gives a real in site to the behind the scenes of the hip hop world

A page turner. I found this book so captivating I finished reading it in less than two days! Karrine has not had an easy life by any means, she does not glamorise the lifestyle she used to live. I found her honesty refreshing and respect her determination to turn her life around. To me she is a survivor. I look forward to reading The Vixen Manual!

Great but disturbing read.. I enjoyed reading this biography although felt sad and pitiful for this author at the same time. She says she wrote it to warn of the negative connotations of the rap game and to raise awareness for young women going in the same direction as her bit I feel it was more of a tell all and reveal of her relationships with hip hop's finest. Either way she does get the reader to pity her while at the same time judge her for the way she went about trying to make a "better" life for herself and her son.

Inspirational. This book had me. Not because of the celebrity names but because the True resilience that was in this young woman. I couldn't believe the story and couldn't put the book down. I recommend this book. There is a lesson to be learned in reading this book. I hope you get it.

Diary of a video vixen. This book was raw and real.to overcome what she went though and still able to the story is amazing. This is a eye opener for women and a insider to what woman think they want but the life is not that great. Though it probably ruined a lot f homes by naming ppl, she kept it real.good actually great book.

Great Read. Karrine’s writing is to the point which I appreciate. I love her candor & openness with the reader. It certainly speaks to the nature of the industry and the emptiness of it all. I appreciate Karrine for sharing her story.
