Sandy “Pepa” Denton’s Let’s Talk About Pep, written with Karen Hunter, is out today from VH1:
“The very thing that got me into Salt-N-Pepa — going with the flow and doing what I was told — was the same thing that got me in a lot of bad situations. Being a chameleon or just going with whatever wasn’t good for me. It allowed me to put up with things I shouldn’t have put up with. It allowed me to be with people I should not have been with because I wasn’t able to just be myself and say no or walk away. It never let me ask, ‘What do I want out of life?’ It never allowed me to really think about me and my needs first.”
In this memoir, “Pepa” for the first time talks about her troubled childhood, surviving abuse, her first encounters with Cheryl “Salt” James, her failed marriages and her escape from domestic abuse, her “breakup” with Salt and their eventual “reunion”, her triumphant comeback on the VH1 reality shows The Surreal Life, Fame Games, and The Salt-N-Pepa Show, and more…does this include raunchy details about her & “Naughty By Nature’s” Treach? I guess not, but I hear its filled with surprising insights, outrageous anecdotes, and celebrity cameos including an introduction by Queen Latifah and an epilogue by Missy Elliott. Should be an interesting read…
