MORE JUICE FROM O.J.’S SCRAPPED BOOK: Vanity Fair publishes even more excerpts than Newsweek.
*More leakage from the cancelled O.J. Simpson book “If I Did It” has turned up in the new issue of “Vanity Fair” magazine.
Earlier this month, Newsweek published one chapter among the book’s remnants, titled “The Night In Question.” The magazine’s Mark Miller wrote of the passage: “Simpson suggests Nicole all but drove him to kill her. He describes her as the ‘enemy.’ She is taunting him with her sexual dalliances, he says, and carrying on inappropriately in front of their two children.”
Excerpts of the book detailed in the new Vanity Fair – revealed Monday at www.vanityfair.com by James Wolcott, who obtained the book – suggest that Simpson never beat his wife Nicole Brown Simpson as had been widely reported, and had she not been murdered, she would confirm it. Simpson, who was found not guilty of Nicole's 1994 murder and that of Ronald Goldman, reportedly says in the book that his ex-wife had such a temper that she’d “slap the help.”
"To convey this split personality," Wolcott writes, "this ongoing bipolar Ping-Pong exhibition, one chapter is titled 'The Two Nicoles.' Two Nicoles were too much for Simpson, who never knew when he picked up the phone or entered the driveway if he was going to get the purring Nicole or the spitting hellcat."
