"Most of you know me as Pep, or Pepa, the fun-loving half of Salt-N-Pepa. I am the party girl, the one who is down for whatever. But behind the laughs and the smiles is a whole lot of pain."

Funny, fearless, and full of life, Sandy "Pepa" Denton is a pop culture icon whose remarkable story is every bit as captivating and provocative as her Grammy Award-winning music. This is the real Pepa -- upfront, uncensored, unstoppable -- and these are the memoirs of a true pioneer, fighter, survivor, and inspiration to women everywhere.

For the first time, Pepa talks about:

• Her troubled childhood
• Surviving abuse
• Her first encounters with Cheryl "Salt" James
• Salt-N-Pepa's instant success
• 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

Filled with surprising insights, outrageous anecdotes, and celebrity cameos -- including Queen Latifah, Martin Lawrence, Janice Dickinson, Omarosa, Missy Elliott, L.L. Cool J, supermodel Caprice, Ron Jeremy, Lisa "Left Eye" Lopez, "Spinderella," and many others -- Let's Talk About Pep offers a fascinating glimpse behind the fame, family, failures, and successes of celebrity...and into the faithful heart of a woman who will always value the good friends she found along the way. In the words of Sandy "Pepa" Denton, "there's no walking away from that."

Customer Rating:

My husband gave me the book as a surprise gift and I really enjoyed reading about Pep's life and her time in the group. S&P was one of my favorite groups. I can also relate to some of the things that she went thru and like myself she is a strong women.If anyone knows of a young lady going through some tough stuff (with men) give them this book it might just stop them from a lot of pain.I can't wait for season 3 of the show.

Very Interesting

Customer Rating:

This is a very interesting book. Pep really shares her life experiences and emotions throughout this book. Every page is more interesting than the page before. The story line was written, almost as if you were there with her. Although, she switches up moments, that often leaves you wondering, "Where'd that come from?" She can also get really repetitive, meaning she repeats the same line or information that she revealed previously in the book, again. Nevertheless, it is a well written biography by Pep and I'd highly recommend it.

Need some Pep?

Customer Rating:

Celebrities have it extremely hard. They are constantly put on a pedestal as though they have some super human powers that make them immune to flaws. Pepa, from the celebrity group Salt n Pepa, lives under this microscope everyday. Being half of the most iconic female hip hop group has proven to make her already difficult life even more trivial. From her humble beginning as the youngest of a large family to her party like a rockstar peak, Pepa has had her share of trials and tribulations. Just when you think she has made it through the worst, things seem to get even more crazy for her. This book shares some enlightening truths that prove that Pepa doesn't want to live with regrets. Everything she has gone through has been for a reason. This book was a lightening fast read. This book was recommended to me and I must say I was impressed. I have read other `tell all' books and right away this book simply read different. She talks about her life without restriction making it clear that the more she lived, the more she understood the reason she did and put up with certain things. The most alarming chapters were when she divulged the extreme relationship with her and Treach from Naughty By Nature. By the time I got to this part of the book I was under the impression that she had been through the worst in her relationships. Boy was I wrong! I could not put this book down at this point! Wow! I completely empathized with her plight and respected her honesty about her situation. Seeing her open up about what she went through will more than definitely give someone else in an abusive relationship something to think about. Here is this powerful, beautiful celebrity with one of the finest men in the industry and she is literally fighting for her life on a daily basis. Want to know more? Pick up this book, it doesn't disappoint! Reviewed by: Nikkea S. RWA Bookclub President [...]
