David Peisner (July 31, 2015). "Former Video Vixen Karrine Steffans on Kissing and Telling 10 Years After Her Tell-All Memoir: 'The Truth Is Never Regrettable' ". Billboard. This is far and away the worst of them. First of all, Steffans tries to identify herself as a "video vixen" but then reveals in the book that most women in music videos are actually professional models and have little to do with the hip hop social scene. Karrine Steffans is the New York Times best selling author of four titles: Confessions of a Video Vixen, The Vixen Diaries, The Vixen Manual: How to Find, Seduce, & Keep the Man You Want, and SatisFaction: Erotic Fantasies for the Advanced & Adventurous Couple.

How To Make Love To A Martian by Karrine Steffans | eBook

I don’t fault her for telling her life story and feel sorry for the abuse she has suffered but if she wants to send a message there could have sermonized a little more plus certain things she thinks are romantic seem more to be her being taken advantage of more or just wrong Like the Jay-Z story or the Irv gotti story. She also seems to sensualize some of her stories but then they just end abruptly yet she can tell you exact details of materialistic things like what suit a person wore or what kind of car a person drove plus the interior of the car. The emotional and psychological torture that arises out of domestic violence is truly a disease of epic proportions. This to me was a difficult read, not linguistically but on a human and emotional level. As a woman and a mother of two daughters it's hard not to bleed in empathy for those suffering from the emotional, financial, physical, spiritual and psychological abuse (that develops into a form of PTSD) from partners/spouses/husbands who are out of control and seek that control through violence. Worst to see the infection of that disease spread and passed along to children in the form of learned behavior is heart breakingly sad. This kind of pathology is toxicity at its best.Ogunnaike, Lola (July 3, 2005). "Turning the Tables On Rap's Player List". The New York Times . Retrieved 2010-12-07.

Steffans, Karrine (2011). SatisFaction: Erotic Fantasies for the Advanced & Adventurous Couple. New York: Grand Central Publishing. ISBN 978-0-44655-320-9. I made a brand new bookshelf, Trash, just for this book specifically. Hands-down this is the worst "book" in existence and I include such self-published treasures as BIRTH CONTROL IS SINFUL IN THE CHRISTIAN MARRIAGES and also ROBBING GOD OF PRIESTHOOD CHILDREN!!in that statement.

For a decade, Confessions of a Video Vixen author Karrine Steffans and the details of her private life have been the subject of debate and scrutiny. But, as gossipmongers and critics speculated, assumed, and manufactured tall tales about the New York Times bestselling author, Karrine hid herself and her truth from the world, imprisoned by an abusive marriage and the judgments of society. I think that she achieves what she set out to do in telling her cautionary tale. Moreover, I do think it took some courage to start calling out the music industry and naming names so long before the media was at all receptive to these stories. Im not going to lie, Im am so ashamed that I was dying to read this book. Not because I am a fan of Karrine Steffans because I didnt even know who the hell she was when I was told about the book. Embarrissingly enough, I wanted some inside celeb juice. So I read this book (using the word book loosely) to see what it was about. I must first say that if you do not have the creative ability to consider yourself a writer, you shouldnt write. If you dont read books often (im only assumming based of her style of writing) you shouldnt write. She definitely should have had a ghost writer. However, there was something about this book that didn't do it for me. Normally, I'm one of those people who will defend this author until I'm blue in the face when it comes to her storytelling as I believe she has an amazing talent for that aspect. However, I feel like she's finally hit that point where her creative juices and groundbreaking prose has run out. She's run out of steam, unfortunately. The last thing I remembered was my body shaking violently as I sat on the toilet with my head in my hands and my friend Eva hovering over me asking me if I was okay. But now I was on the floor and she was gone. Can I move? was the only thought swirling through my head.
