Lil Kim Confirms Upcoming Biopic & Memoir

It looks like a Lil Kim biopic is headed our way soon!
While celebrating the late Notorious B.I.G‘s 50th Birthday Bash in New York, Lil Kim, 47, (born Kimberly Denise Jones) revealed that her life story will soon be told in a forthcoming biopic. On Saturday (May 21) family, friends and celebrities came out to celebrate what would have been Biggie’s 50th birthday. The legendary rapper was murdered in a drive-by shooting in Los Angeles on March 9, 1997, at the age of 24. He would have been 50-year-old on May 21.

Lil Kim hosted the 2nd Annual Biggie Dinner Gala at Guastavino’s in New York City.  Those in attendance included, Diddy, Fat Joe, members of Junior M.A.F.I.A, Mary J Blige, and Sway Calloway, to name a few. To celebrate the occasion, the iconic Empire State Building in Manhattan, N.Y. lit up in red and white in honor of the late rap.

When asked if fans could expect a movie detailing her life and music career, Lil Kim replied,

“Absolutely”

Lil Kim noted that the biopic will closely trail the release of her upcoming memoir, which is reportedly scheduled to hit shelves later this year! In the book, Kim will unveil the intimate details of her relationship Biggie–who was still married to singer Faith Evans, 48, at the time of his death.

While reflecting on her upcoming tell all memoir, Lil Kim said,

“Oh my God. Everyone’s gonna know things that they’ve never known.”

While Kim spilled a little tea, she’s not quite ready to reveal which actress she wants to portray her in the film. Fans can recall the controversial casting of the 2009 blockbuster “Notorious,” which chronicled Biggie’s rise to fame. ‘Power‘ actress Naturi Naughton, 38, was selected to play her in the film in which  the “Crush On You” rapper publicly voiced her disdain on the casting selection.

It looks like fans will just have to wait and see who will be chosen to play the legendary Queen Bee!
