Lil' Kim Loves Philly Back
In yet another key endorsement of Philadelphia, the sixth borough, rapper with a record Lil' Kim has issued a press release from federal prison here, saying her fellow inmates are "all cool people."
It was not know how city tourism officials were going to play this endorsement. There were unconfirmed reports of hurried phone calls to set up a celebratory party at Cuba Libre.
More from Kim, who happens to have a new CD out Tuesday:
"I want all my friends, family and fans to know that I am in good spirits and I will be fine," Kim said in the statement. "Contrary to the rumors, I am in general population at FDC and I have adjusted to the facility and to my fellow inmates who are all cool people. Each day, I read, sharpen my focus and grow. Of course, I wish I could be out to celebrate the release of my new album this week, The Naked Truth but instead, I am looking to take advantage of this time to work on my personal development. Thank you to all for your continued support."
We're delighted to be able to follow that development in Lil' Kim's blog, although it's not clear she has 24-7 Internet access while doing a year and a day for federal fibbing. Someone is helping her post, apparently.
Her blog reports there were rumors that she was harassed by fellow inmates and sent to solitary. Not true!
The blog helpfully quotes her lawyer, J. Londell McMillan, saying,
Hopefully, that c**t's cellmates go by the nicknames "Strap-On" and "Butch!"
Lil' Kim Exposed Again in BET's Lil' Kim: The Countdown to Lockdown Black Entertainment Television executives Tuesday defended a new reality series about rap diva Lil' Kim as she prepares to go to prison, saying the show didn't glorify her situation. After promoting "Lil' Kim: The Countdown to Lockdown" as presenting the real Kimberly Jones - "her words, her life, her way" - the network officials backpedaled a bit when asked whether promoting her as going to jail "mouth shut and head held high" was tacitly approving her silence and perjury regarding the shootout involving her friends and some rivals. "It's a very serious look at her life and her choices, and the consequences of those choices," said Reginald Hudlin, the filmmaker who joined BET as its new entertainment president last summer. The program would not, he assured, take either the subject or the sentence - Lil' Kim was sentenced to a year and a day - lightly.
