Karrine Steffans was born on August 24, 1978 St. Thomas, U.S. Virgin Islands and is a former hip hop music video performer and actress.
She is the author of the New York Times bestseller Confessions of a Video Vixen, her 2005 memoir about her life in the commercial hip hop world, which was wildly popular for its graphic descriptions of her sexual liaisons with numerous celebrities. Confessions is currently the all-time best selling book on AALBC.com.
The Vixen Manual was optioned by Fox Television Studios and the author inked a development deal with the studio giant. As a result, Steffans has penned a series based on the book and is credited as created and co-executive producer of the scripted television project, still in development. In 2011, Steffans engaged a slew of author hopefuls to launch the Steffans Publishing's premiere publishing venture –– a series of anthologies, the first to be published June of 2012.
The author lives in Los Angeles with her husband and teenage son.

'Drink Fuck Sleep' is a collection of essays depicting regrettable sexual experiences wherein alcohol was involved either before, during, or after. With gripping, personal accounts of tragic, heart-wrenching, sexually boundless, ultra-erotic, emotionally numbing, mind thrilling, and scintillating experiences, the featured writers narrow the divide between what people project and what they protect. It serves as a series of precautionary tales, as well as proof of life and the parallels of the human condition, regardless of our socioeconomic stations.

This extension of The Vixen Manual's coveted 'Sex' chapter explores the concept that erotic fantasies can and should be satisfied within the parameters of a committed, monogamous relationship. Unlike the author's previous books, SatisFaction is a work of 'faction', fact and fiction, hence the title's double entendre. The reader will be whisked away, into each chapter's titillating erotic fiction, then enlightened by the chapter's scintillating examples of how to make each erotic fantasy a reality. For those who crave quite a bit more than missionary sexual practices and wish to introduce these ideas into their relationship, SatisFaction serves as a guide and as inspiration to advanced and adventurous couples everywhere.
"Many people tend to think that fantasies are far-fetched
and out of reach, that they are just for those girls---you know, the girls
you've spent your whole life convincing others you're nothing like. Well,
it's time to change our way of thinking and become more open to being just
like those girls in our relationships. It's time to turn your fantasies, and
your partner's fantasies, into reality, and not just on birthdays and
holidays or when your man finally paints the garage. They should never be
just for special occasions, but an active part of your everyday life. From
this point forward, you should take a bold step, make a liberating decision.
It's time to make fantasies and role-playing a regular part of your sexual
agenda!"--Karrine Steffans

Read an Interview With Karrine about The Vixen Diaries
Part tell'all, part cautionary tale, this emotionally charged memoir from a former video vixen nicknamed 'Superhead' goes beyond the glamour of celebrity to reveal the inner workings of the hip'hop dancer industry ' from the physical and emotional abuse that's rampant in the industry, and which marked her own life ' to the excessive use of drugs, sex and bling.
Once the sought'after video girl, this sexy siren has helped multi'platinum artists, such as Jay'Z, R. Kelly and LL Cool J, sell millions of albums with her sensual dancing. In a word, Karrine was H'O'T. So hot that she made as much as $2500 a day in videos and was selected by well'known film director F. Gary Gray to co'star in his film, A Man Apart, starring Vin Diesel. But the film and music video sets, swanky Hollywood and New York restaurants and trysts with the celebrities featured in the pages of People and In Touch magazines only touches the surface of Karrine Steffans' life.
Her journey is filled with physical abuse, rape, drug and alcohol abuse, homelessness and single motherhood ' all by the age of 26. By sharing her story, Steffans hopes to shed light on an otherwise romanticised industry and help young women avoid the same pitfalls she encountered. If they're already in danger, she hopes to inspire them to find a way to dig themselves out of what she knows first'hand to be a cycle of hopelessness and despair.

Vivid Entertainment To Release 'Superhead' Porn
Film
Monday - April 10, 2006
Porn giant Vivid Entertainment is gearing up to release a new adult film that
features Karrine Steffans -- known by the hip-hop world as "Superhead" -- who
dropped a tell-all book called Confessions Of A Video Vixen, where she
exposes her experiences as a music video model.
The forthcoming adult film, appropriately titled "Superhead," features the video
vixen alongside adult film star, Mr. Marcus, in her one and only scene in the
porn industry.
"She wrote [Confessions Of A Video Vixen] to expose on Jay-Z, Ja Rule, P
Diddy and all these other guys in hip-hop, and now we can see her just before
she joined those guys," Howard Levine, national sales manager of Vivid, told
AVN.com. "Before she blew the lid off the hip-hop world, she blew Mr. Marcus."
Mr. Marcus narrates the intro to the video and also serves as Steffan's co-star,
who she performs her legendary oral skills on. Marcus remembers the video
model's attributes quite well.
"The thing that stood about her was that she gave incredible head," he told
AVN.com. "She created something off that one act that people are still talking
about today."
