*We’ve known for a while that there have been hard feelings between Salt-N-Pepa and their former DJ, Spinderella. Well, now that Lifetime’s Salt-N-Pepa biopic has debuted, Spin wants you to know she feels disrespected for being left out of the production.
In a series of posts to her Twitter account, she says she’s disappointed to learn that “a decision was made to move forward with a Lifetime biopic that wrongfully excluded me from every aspect of development and production all the while using my image throughout, given that I played an integral role in the group’s story and success.”
She also said letting the world know what’s on her mind because, “too often, Black women who have made meaningful contributions in their industry are left out of historical narratives.”

In reflection, I’m grateful I’ve managed to uphold a 30-year career of truly empowering women with my gift, against all odds. This will continue in my work and in my service.
