Hmmm…seems that Foxy Brown and Lil’ Kim need to repay advances for books they reneged on. If this is true, shame on both of them. If I were them, I would just pay someone to ghost-write my story, after all I believe there are enough folks (not present company but I’m just saying) out there who want to read their stories. Don’t they have more than 40K or 75K fan bases respectively?
DISCUSSION QUESTION
CLICK HERE to read the article and feel free to share your comments with APOOO. Hmmm I just noted that these books were contracted back in 2004 and 2005…dang by now they could have written three or four books! LOL.
UPDATE…There’s always three sides to every story…the right one, their’s and your’s…CLICK HERE to hear what Foxy’s attorney has to say.

Jennifer–I want to know just how much they would have to tell us…are there stories really that unique. Wouldn’t a magazine article tell us what we need to know…lol.
I am a fan of Lil Kim, but not Foxy though I’d read both of their stories. I’ve read (and seen) alot of things about Lil Kim’s life that are surely a story to tell. Actually as much as I can’t stand Sean ‘Puffy’ ‘Puff Daddy’ ‘P Diddy’ Combs, he has a story to tell too and I’d read it.
I’m not one of their fans. I guess someone would read it, but then I will have to hear the radio shows talking about the rubbish between the pages. The world can do without another tell-all for the sake of telling stories to look good.
Hey Darnetta…if their stories ever come out…I’ll request review copies for you…hehe.
Maybe they didn’t know they could hire a ghostwriter like other celebs do.
