Cover of Steffans' book Confessions of a Video Vixen

Karrine Steffans (born August 24, 1978 in St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands) is a former hip hop music video performer and actress. She is the author of Confessions of a Video Vixen (ISBN 0-06-084242-3), her 2005 memoir about her life in the hip hop world, which was controversial for its descriptions of her sexual liaisons with numerous major stars. The memoir describes a number of encounters in which she traded oral sex for access to prominent roles in rap music videos. Her encounters with rap stars led to her having been given the nickname Superhead.

Karrine's heritage is multiracial. Her mother has Jamaican, Puerto Rican, and Danish heritage and her father is African American.

She starred in a porn film with porn star Mr. Marcus in which she was credited as "Honey". The porn scene showed why she got the moniker of "Superhead". She is seen on the film performing a very rapid form of oral sex to Mr. Marcus.

She has also starred in A Man Apart opposite Vin Diesel and Larenz Tate.

[edit] Steffans and Kool G Rap

Steffans' Confessions includes a number of chapters describing her relationship with Juice Crew member and hip hop recording artist Kool G Rap (b. Nathaniel Wilson). Her descriptions of Wilson's alcohol and cocaine abuse, epileptic seizures, philandering, and tendency toward domestic abuse, both psychological and physical, garnered a minor publicity stir and was a topic of discussion for several of the book's reviewers ^[1]. When interviewed on popular New York radio station Hot 97, she discussed her book with host Miss Jones before taking a call from Wilson (Kool G Rap) and wife Ma Barker, in which the two callers criticized Steffans' behavior toward a daughter (allegedly fathered by rapper Method Man [who denied the claims] but not mentioned in Confessions) and refuted her claims regarding Wilson's abuse.

[edit] Relationships since going public

Since publishing her memoir, Steffens reportedly became involved with comedian and talk show host Bill Maher of Real Time with Bill Maher. That relationship apparently ended as of August 2006, as it was reported she was with Bobby Brown after he and Whitney Houston had separated ^[2]. A National Enquirer report states that Karrine Steffans is pregnant with Bobby Brown's fifth child ^[3].
