Naturi Naughton Questions Why Lil Kim Had a Problem with a Black Actress Portraying Her
Naturi Naughton is once again addressing her one-sided beef with Lil Kim and the actress still can’t understand the issue
Naturi is promoting the new season of “Power,” and when she stopped by VH1, she was once again asked about Lil Kim.
The actress portrayed Kim in “Notorious,” and the Queen Bee was not impressed.
In fact, Biggie’s mother Voletta Wallace claims Kim’s real issue is Naturi’s complexion.
Rumor has it Lil Kim wanted to be portrayed by an actress with lighter skin and she felt Naturi was “too dark” to play her on the big screen.
During a recent interview with Marc Lamont Hill on “VH1 Live!,” Naturi questioned why a black female rapper wouldn’t want to support an up and coming black actress.
She says:
“All I know is I had the honor and pleasure of playing Lil Kim in the film ‘Notorious,’ I would love to have some kind of affinity but I guess…my thing is I was a first time actress in a film. This was the beginning of my career. I’m a little black girl from Jersey. Why would you not uplift and support that?”
