…the new Biggie movie is not about thee!
NEW YORK — Lil Kim was a big part of the Notorious B.I.G.’s life, but she’s not happy about the way she’s portrayed in the new biopic about the late rapper.
The Notorious B.I.G. was Lil Kim’s mentor and was also romantically linked to the rapper. Their sometimes rocky relationship is depicted in the new movie “Notorious,” but Lil Kim doesn’t think it’s very accurate.
In a statement, she said: “The film studio and producers involved were more concerned about painting me as a ‘character’ to create a more interesting story line instead of a person with talent, self-respect and who was able to achieve her own career success through hard work.”
Hold on for a minute. Who cares? … that’s what I thought. The movie is not called Notorious & Kim or Look at me, I’m still alive! Unfortunately, Lil’ Kim is trying to cause a stir to make herself relevant once more. It’s amazing how people can still piggy back on this man’s career. This movie will certainly turn out to be a bigger hit at the box office than most people expect. To give you an idea of how much they’re underestimating this movie, there are less than 3 movie theaters showing this movie in the city where I live. This is in one of the 3 largest cities in Florida! So either they don’t want the audience they think comes with this kind of a movie, or they think it’s a bust. What your vote?
