Birth Name:
Kimberly Denise Jones
Birth Place:
Brooklyn, New York, United States
Date of Birth:
July 11, 1975
What Race or Ethnicity?:
African American
The American female rapper and former girlfriend of Christopher “B.I.G.” Wallace is of African American heritage. However according to IMDB it is stated that she is also of Native American Indian descent, though this has not been confirmed by other sites.
There is a perception by many, especially the black community that Kim has had numerous operations to alter her appearance. When Kim was asked about this rumor in a BET interview she apparently hung up on the interviewer.

Lil Kim is mixed with black & Native American. She said it on her myspace page. She is not pure black not does she look pure black. Before the bleaching, she was caramel skinned. She was never dark skinned. Heck, she was lighter than Biggie. I want to ask their question. Y’all saying that Lil Kim have self-hate issues, but why are you not saying this about white people who tans to get darker? Do they have self-hate issues, too?

I have one question, why is it that you people can “easily assume” that people like ashanti, aaliyah, nia long, keri hilson, ciara, will smith, jada pinkett etc.( From the comments that I have read so far) are “MIXED, THEY JUST HAVE TO BE” although they haven’t made any comments about being mixed. Yet it is hard for people to believe that lil kim, fabolous, neyo etc.could possibly be mixed? IS IT BECAUSE YOU BASE IT ON LOOKS?

Yes it seems all the unattractive people are automatically considered black and the mixed and lighter ones and attractive ones are considered mixed. You see it is a ploy to make black the worst thing possible. it is very twisted. Lil Kim is probably Native American and Black but neither blacks or Native Americans want to get stuck with her crazy ass. lol.
