YAAAAASSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS!!! QUEEN BEE!!!!!!!!!!
Agreed I’ve always liked her. Maybe she’ll be releasing new music.
They probably want Lil Kim to perform because she got a new makeover
THE QUEEN OF RAP IS BACK, BISSSSSSSSSHES!!!!!!!!!!! QUEEN BEE LIL’ KIM IS THAT BIIITTCH!!!
Celine Dion just cannot stop. However, she doing this type of appearance is kind of rare since she is not releasing any English stuff. But great news. Overall she just cannot stop doing shows in Vegas or worldwide. The woman has been making money with tours and concerts since the 90s like a badass. One of the biggest touring acts of the last 20 years for sure.
She may outsell Rihanna´s American sales with her next French release with her sales France alone 🙂 🙂 🙂
Ya’ll acting like Lil Kim has booked that stage herself.. She’s performing with Diddy who’s also performing with like 29 other people
Awesome
