Lil' Kim, also known as Kimberly Jones, is charged with lying to a grand jury about a Feb. 21, 2001, shooting she allegedly witnessed involving two bodyguards, the New York Post reported Saturday.

Damion "D-Roc" Butler and Suif "Gutta" Jackson have pleaded guilty to gun charges for the shooting that occurred outside radio station Hot 97 in Greenwich Village.

"She's a rapper who wears a lot of diamonds," one prospective juror wrote in a questionnaire. "She seems like she would do almost anything for money."

Another juror wrote Lil' Kim was "too blatantly sexual for my liking."

Federal Judge Gerald Lynch said the "negative views" make it all but certain the jurors will be disqualified.
