im beggin to hear nas,jay and AI's side of the story..she should be smacked for sum of the shyt she said too..plus she kept sayin its in the book..which leads me to believe she prolly aint read the shyt yet..

I can't stand how Wendy Williams judges people. She is a mess.

Anyway. I read the book and I liked it. I understand where both sides are coming from. If Nas is the person then she says he is in that book then he is a mess. Everyone was first but her. He got paid and didn't even by him or his moms a house with the money. She was still living in the projects. He didn't invest it or anything.

Now when a man neglects a woman, it is only so much she can take. I have been in that situation. I haven't slept with dudes but I do go to them when my man is not paying me any mind. Seems Jay treated her like a queen and NAS was worrying about everyone but her until he was broke. And of course when he got back on top it wasn't about her anymore.

And some of you guys want to call her a whore and saying she sleeping with the enemy. I see dudes doing it all the time. Why is there always a double standard...

She wasn't getting what she needed at home so she went else where. Ain't that how you men do?

Hold up slim. Be easy before you start painting everyone with the same brush. You taking that Ducks disgruntled statements as a viable testimony? It's lies mixed with truth, all crap you have to guess and sift through the shit she's shoveling. It's the same old story...BM shits on a brother then when he gets on top she's the first one on her knees, We supposed to take you back after you have been un-faithful besides shitting on Son? Cmon be realistic, theirs 2 women for every man <-FACT Once you continually disrespect and break the bond of Man-Woman-Child, Food-Clothes-Shelter the essense of life. Its Time for you to pick your things up from the LEFT.

M.O.B
DMG

since nas neva admitted cheating doesnt dis mean dat she is a whore

This hoe ain't no video vixen get the fuck outta here! Bring here to the N.O. we'll flip this hoe ya heard me! Nas if you didn't hit her you should put ya foot in her ass now! She slept with these niggas and none of them holla back thats what i'm talkin bout! All she wanna know is where the cash at!

This situation is so simple... I've the interview live, watched it, read the bootlegged version (yeah I said bootleg, I wish I would support that SMUTT).
Another female trying to get paid off of someone else's name.
Her reason to writing the book...lol, because they repearedly used her name so now she wants to use theirs...wow. Her name was used One time and we still didnt give a damn who she was.

She was then, is now, and always will be a dumb smutt. Except now she's a dumb smutt with a book. At least Superhead didnt deny being a smutt like Carmen does.

How do u sleep with Jay, come home and shower, then lay up with Nas? SMutt!
How do u have an abortion by one then get pregnant by the next within 30 days? SMUTT!
Why write and sell a book based on you sneaking around on your man....and then expect us to respect you as a woman? SMutt

Last but not least, you talk about protecting your daughter over and over again, about how Nas is a Bum father, and he never helped u with anything... But when it all comes down to it... U dont work at all, Meaning u live off of Nas's child support.. and u need to be protecting your daughter from yaself. SHe's 12 she can read now... how do u think she's going to feel when she (and she will) reads a copy of "SMUTT FILES" bka Carmens Book?

SMutts... whateva happened to strong, mature women?

Oh please Nele, Carmen wasnt hurting for money cuz she used Nas' money that dirty bitch never worked in her life. What she did was grimmey and just inexcusable and the only way i see u getting so defensive is because your the same type of women who bed hops just for money and attention. If u just wana blame all men for what ur 2 or 3 bad choices did to you then fine but being a single mom at 35, club hopping and living off ur baby's father is but ugly.

Damn Shaboogie...
I couldn't have put it any clearer than u just did!

For all of the SMUTTS thinking this is the way to go...
For all of the Broke ass x girlfriend's or Sperm Disposals of Famous people looking to make a quick dollar...

FUCK OUTTA HERE!

-Be Eazy

Carmen is a jump off supreme

An excerpt from the book: **AHem**

The song was news to me, but at the mention of Shawn's name my heart sank down to my stomach, which tightened into knots. I sat up in bed and tossed aside the silk comforter. With the movement the diamond on my left hand caught a silvery ray of moonlight. I took a deep breath and calmed down. Nas and I were finally getting married. This was no time to panic.

"What song?" I asked, as neutrally as possible.

"'Is That Your Chick.' Carm, it's getting harder and harder for me to ignore the rumors about you and this dude -- "

"They are just rumors, Nas." I put on what I hoped was a persuasively reasonable tone. "People talk. I put up with rumors about who you're supposed to be with all the time. Foxy, Beyoncè, Mary J. Every week they're saying it's someone new. You're just going to have to charge it to the game like I do."

Nas was silent. I could almost hear him balancing it out in his mind. On one side, there was my comforting explanation. A big part of him wanted to believe it. On the other hand, there was the growing weight of his suspicion. Nas wasn't exactly buying my little speech, but he let things drop for the moment. We hung up and I lunged for the bathroom, where I was sick.

Nas was very competitive in that he had two part-time jobs: he spent half his time talking up himself and the other half talking down others. In public, Nas tended to be more low-key and aloof than other entertainers. But at home, he was extremely opinionated and vocal about his peers' artistic efforts. Even if he was cool with someone personally, Nas always had a raw comment about their music. For example: in my opinion, Foxy Brown is the most talented female MC. Most will agree Foxy wears the crown, hands down. Not Nas. "You could just throw a few ingredients in a bowl, stir, and come up with another Foxy," he would rant. He had criticism of just about anyone. He would say Ja Rule was biting DMX's style, or Fat Joe was corny. These reviews always led up to the same point: "There is no real talent out there." The only lyricist Nas considered to be in his league was the late B.I.G. Nas's battle with Jay-Z was as much one of words as of the heart. I'd started seeing Jay finally doing to Nas what he'd been doing to me for years.

"Carm, this nigga Jay is so shallow," Nas would say. "He's a surface MC. He's plastic on stage. That's bad enough. But he doesn't even know what he's talking about. He hasn't done half the shit he's talking about in his rhymes. I don't believe him. Period."

Still, I couldn't imagine what might have motivated this "Is That Your Chick" song. Naturally Shawn would appear on Memphis Bleek's single -- a fellow artist on the Roc-A-Fella label. And the song certainly could have something to do with me. Throughout our clandestine relationship Shawn had made many references to me in his lyrics. But he had never said anything negative or explicit and had never used his relationship with me to taunt Nas.

This was turning into an urban soap opera with me in a leading role as the femme fatale. I had to hear this Memphis Bleek song. After a few calls to friends in New York, I found someone to play the song for me over the phone. It went "How foul is she? And you wifed her" and talked about how he put the condom on "tighter."

At first I thought, Psss . . . I don't know who Shawn's referring to, but he damn sure ain't talking about me! The lyrics were rather racy and described a type of liaison that was the exact opposite of our relationship.

Shawn's disparaging lyrics gave no indication of the solid friendship we'd shared over the years. Not to mention the fact that it took a good year before we even became lovers or that I had recently been pregnant by him -- 'cause he didn't wear a condom at all, let alone tight enough.

After listening to the song, it was evident that the record was designed to take a direct stab at Nas, making me a casualty of this ongoing and highly publicized strife.

I tried to put things in perspective and take it like a hard-nosed realist, but I couldn't feign callousness. Shawn's actions were a complete disappointment. Instead of being hurt, I was enraged. I knew what I had to do before this thing went any further. I had to bring Nas up to speed. It was time to reveal the truth, once and for all.

Throughout the next day, Nas gathered evidence that the song referred to me. That night he called back for another round of questions. As I quietly deflected them, I walked by Destiny's room to make sure she was asleep, then headed downstairs. I walked down the stairs with the cordless phone to my ear, my forehead breaking out into a sweat. My heart was racing, my breathing became heavy and my stomach was in knots. I even said a quick little prayer and turned off all the lights as if darkness provided an escape.

After some anxious pacing between the bathroom and kitchen, I ended up in front of my bathroom mirror, in darkness. My reflection was a vague silhouette, just barely visible. I was so tired of misrepresenting myself, of sneaking out, of lying and denying the truth. Of course, Nas had long done the same thing. It had been a rough and rocky nine years for us. But for all our drama, we were inextricably linked -- we had a daughter and deep, deep history together. I couldn't let Shawn belittle Nas as a man. Nas deserved to have a fighting chance.

"Nas, it's true." My words tumbled out. "The rumors are true. I have been seeing Jay-Z."

"Carm, how could you?" Nas asked in disbelief. "Why that nigga? I can't believe what you're telling me right now."

"Nas, I'm sorry." I choked out my apology as I started to cry. "I am so sorry." I had always thought that when this day finally came I would feel vindicated. For so long I had craved the taste of bittersweet revenge. Nas would finally feel what I had felt over the years. But this was completely different. I felt horrible, not for my actions, but because I had hurt Nas and he was suffering from tremendous heartache. It just wasn't what I'd envisioned.

Nas was unmoved by my sobbing regret. He wanted details. "How long have you been fucking with this dude?"

"It's been a minute," I answered. Even though I'd resolved to tell him everything, it took a while to get my courage up.

"How long is a minute, Carm?"

"Like five years."

"Five years! Five years, Carm? What the fuck is wrong with you? What were you thinking? You mean all this time I been hearing rumors about you and this nigga, brushing them off like, 'Nah, not Carm. She may do her thing but she would never disrespect me like that. . . . Where did you meet this nigga at?"

"We met at a club in the city. It started as a friendship. Was for a year before we slept together."

Nas sucked his teeth. "I don't give a fuck if it took you ten years to sleep with him. You're supposed to be my wife, that shit wasn't supposed to happen, Carm! I don't deserve this. I want to know everything! You ever been to his crib?"

"Yes."

"You ever been to a hotel with him?"

"No. We always hang out at his crib."

"Did you ever take my car to go see this nigga?" I thought to myself, What kind of question is that? But I continued to answer.

"Uh huh."

These intimate details would give Nas enough material to spin some elaborately jealous story lines in his mind. Still, I had to answer the questions to prevent his imagination from getting the best of him. He would drive himself crazy with speculation if he didn't have this chance to grill me.

"Does he hold you at night?"

"Yes."

He hesitated. I realized what he really wanted to ask. Guys may feign disinterest about the matter, but they're all anxious to know: Is he bigger than me? For the moment Nas avoided the size question.

"Did you go down on him?" he asked.

"Once."

"Once, I don't believe that! You're such a fucking slut! I can't believe you sucked that nigga's dick, Carm. Come on, you're gonna tell me you only did it once. You're such a fucking liar."

"It's true. You can ask him."

"What? Ask him? Carm, I'm gonna kill that nigga! I fucking hate you!"

Nas hung up on me. I called back. He just kept screaming through his extensive vocabulary of derogative terms: I was a slut, a whore, a dirty bitch and more. He hung up, but then immediately called back, hoping to find some release in another diatribe. It had the opposite effect: Ranting only sustained his sense of violation, kept his feelings raw. We went back and forth with a few more rounds of confession and condemnation until he finally stopped answering the phone. Nas was done with me for the night. Maybe forever.

I turned on the bathroom light and looked in the mirror, still crying. Tears seemed to be washing away my features, making an anonymous mask of my face. So I had finally confessed to Nas. I looked at myself a little more closely. It was time for me to get real with myself.

I was crying tears of frustration. Shawn had stripped me of the opportunity to divulge our relationship in my own private way. I was mortified that Nas found out in such a public manner. But that's the way it goes down in a love triangle, the unholiest of trinities.

I stared in the mirror until I finally stopped crying, then washed away the residue of my tears. Facing the truth gave me a new clarity. Self-realization smoothed my forehead and conviction strengthened my jaw. I was naïve enough to believe the uncovering of my affair with Jay-Z would bring closure to my relationship with Nas. I was ready for it to end.

But it wasn't the end. In fact, it was only the beginning.

Did any of you have the opportunity to loosely inspect the ignorant comment entered on behalf of our fellow bigot friend? It's so irrelevant. Moving along. As far as Carmen is concerned I haven't had the pleasure nor leisure time to scrutinize her "diary". It becomes boring and quite morose to know that these woman "Superhead" and now Nas's baby's mother, have to sell their tired souls to the public to make a quick buck. I'm someone's mother and someone's baby's mother, truly I would never stoop to rock bottom and put my business or emotions on blast. Can she say in-ti-ma-cy? These woman act as if airing their dirty laundry is the end all be all to their deficiencies. Though I am a woman, I simply cannot relate.

First Of All i dont agree with people bashing her because like she said if Jay & Nas would have not open they fucking mouth we wouldnt know who Carmen Bryan is! She done came up and guess what she did what alot of guys do to women this shit goes hand & hand

I m late but oh well, i cant stand this interview I mean wendy I know that this is what you to on the daily, but you didnt have to do Carmen so dirty in the studio. Honestly from reading the book I believe that Nas, probably hope that the world would be a little easy on her because it seemed as if he probably has feelings for her, and is concerned about how the world reacts to what she had to say. She had to do what she had to do, so what calling her a whore and slut makes you feel better about yourself, bringing people down is so ugly. I disagreed with the actions she did, there was times when I was reading the book and i was saying to myself no Carmen dont do it think about Nas! but hey there's plenty of women out there who does this. Maybe your girl is doing it right now while your on here dissing the next chick you need to find out where shes at. Guys are just so disrespectful especailly Wendy's side kick!This show was a mess!

I am just too annoyed at the way that tranny (Wendy Williams) disrespected Carmen. Even the gorilla on the show (Charlemaine)called Carmen a whore, as if Nas didn't whore around first. What these so called men on this site and misguided females are in an uproar about is the fact that Carmen stood up for herself. She didn't just take crap. I keep seeing posts about Nas paying support for Carmen and her child. Well thats exactly what he is supposed to do.

Method Man said it best, "Wendy Williams is a bitch" & to yall ignorant ass niggas dat think Carmen was a hoe for what she did some ignorant ass niggas in my opinion. She was hurtin bad so she went out and had a fling with A.I and found a divine friendship with Jay-Z. Nas was hurtin da female. She couldn't leave him cause she loved him and feared what he would do to himself if she completely left him and may I remind yall dat nas did da same. I dont see yall spazzin out at Nas. Wendy is a stupid bitch who make a livin off gossip thats something a bitch does gossip. Who would get a job if they could live off childsupport anyway. If she was gettin like $6000 a month it would be dumb for her to get a job dat pays less. I think carmen is a strong woman and when she made those decision she was still young. Without her support Nas probably wouln't even be where he at right now. She was with the niggia when he was dead broke. If you motherfuckers read the book. Before Nasgot his record deal he was living off of her! Dumb, ignorant, motherfuckers!!!!

every grown person on here should b ashamed of themselves for tryna heat on carmen like that.First off none of us know her,jay or nas so we really don't wtf went on besides from what we hear.If Carmen is such a hoe y did Nas still want to b with her after everything was found out?Till this very day Nas probably still has feelings for this woman.U can't b with someone for that long and just expect the feelings to go away.He might not be in love but for sure he has some kind of feelings.Idk wtf everyone getting mad for she aired her personal business n made money off the shit, wtf does that have anything to do with us? Yall r the idiots downgrading her bcuz yall probably slept around n wanted something to show for it n look what she has a monthly check from Nas and the money shes makin off of this book that yall idiots bought. N so what Jay got B and Nas got Kelis from what we all heard Kelis doesn't like to shower n Beyonce doesn't like to brush her teeth, but who cares,we're not getting paid to know or even care..Don't get me wrong I love Kelis n B but I think Carmen is way prettier than both. Shes naturally pretty I think.Now I just finished reading the book n I loved It.When her daughter reads it idk what she will think but otherwise I think she did the right thing n let everyone know how niggas R!!
