"How Am I Gonna Squash Beef That I Didn't Have?": Naturi Naughton Claims She Never Had Any Issues with Lil' Kim

"The shade is real, I don't understand it."

Naturi Naughton's got no time for fake beef with Lil' Kim. The Power actress stopped by VH1 Live!, where Marc Lamont Hill asked her about the rumors that Kim was talking smack about her at the Hip Hop Honors: All Hail the Queens after parties.

"The shade is real, I don't understand it," the actress replied, "You know what Marc, maybe you can find out why. All I know is, I had the pleasure and honor of playing Lil' Kim in the film Notorious." When Hill said Kim was unhappy with Naturi's portrayal, Naughton took it in stride. "I was a first time actress in a film, you know? This was the beginning of my career. I'm a little black girl from New Jersey, why not support that?"

So when it comes to squashing that beef? "I don't have any beef. How am I gonna squash beef that I didn't have? I'm just all love and positivity, and moving on to Power and all the great things in my life." Hear, hear, Naturi. Do you think that's really the whole story?
