Toya Says Lil Wayne Supports Her Book

In an interview with BET.com, Weezy's ex says the rapper is cool with her upcoming memoir.

Antonia "Toya" Carter is not just busy prepping for the premiere of her new BET reality series, Toya: A Family Affair, which airs tomorrow night (Tuesday, April 12) at 10PM/9c. She is also promoting the release of her book, Priceless Inspirations, which hits bookstores just three days later.

Because some might think it's taboo for a celebrity's ex-girlfriend to pen a book, Toya wants everyone to know that this is no tell-all. "Most people, when they’re writing books about their lives and they’re involved with somebody like a celebrity or whatever, it’s always a tell-all," says Wayne's ex-wife.

To further prove her point, Toya reached out to Lil Wayne to write the book's forward. She tells BET.com, "[Wayne wrote the forward] when I went to visit him in prison. I thought it would be a good idea...I just wanted the fans and everybody to know that Wayne is supportive of the book and it’s far from a tell-all."
