LIL KIM ACCUSES TALK SHOW OF BEING "MESSY"

Kim had scheduled several press appearances scheduled with various news outlets - including Cohen's show - but she has canceled them all.

The rapper posted a rant on Instagram - since then deleted - in which she accused Bravo of being disrespectful and insisting on what she considers out-of-line questions.

LIL KIM'S PREVIOUS CONTROVERSY ON WWHLAC

In 2012, Kim had reacted badly on previously appeared WWHLAC when Andy Cohen asked her how she felt about her rival Nicki Minaj’s Grammy performance and her song “Stupid Hoe.”

“I’m pretty sure I feel the way everybody else feels right now. If you have to make a song called ‘Stupid Hoe,’ you must be a stupid hoe. It makes sense,” Kim replied.

Cohen, whose show was cut from Kim's list along with Access Hollywood and TODAY, has said he will always welcome the rapper.
