He has three kids, and possibly a fourth on the way.
He has a 4-year-old son as well as the baby I described.

Jill Scott
(Nov. 8, 2001) SCOTT’S TAKEN…AND TAKING OFF: Grammy-nominated neo-soul singer-songwriter Jill Scott has gotten hitched. The Ru Report has learned that the Philadelphia-bred musical wunderkind has married her best friend and lover of the past seven years, Lyzel Williams, in a private ceremony in Hawaii.
While her rep is remaining tightlipped about the actual details of the nuptials, she did offer that the couple wed within the last two weeks, while Scott was on vacation. Williams, who is a much sought-after graphic artist and DJ, is also hands-on in Scott’s career management, along with her bodyguard Bill Brown.

Yours truly will get a chance to catch up to Scott while she’s in the big apple to promote the release of her forthcoming live album, Experience: Jill Scott (826 Plus), which is due in stores on November 20th. Scott will host a private luncheon at a swank Harlem haunt next Wednesday where all of her friends and supporters in the entertainment industry will be invited.

Now that her time off is over with, Scott is getting knee deep in the marketing of the 2 CD set, which features live tracks and new music. This weekend, Scott will tape a special segment of Bravo’s Broadway’s Best program, in which she collaborates with music legend George Benson for a performance of “Summertime” from Porgy & Bess. The Bravo special is scheduled to air during February sweeps. She’s also slated to appear on LIVE with Regis & Kelly, Sesame Street, The Ananda Lewis Show, BET Tonight wit Ed Gordon and the VH-1 special The New Soul Generation, in the coming weeks.

And while the 29-year old media darling is currently gracing the cover of Honey magazine and will be on the cover of the January issue of Essence, Scott will also perform a song from the set, “Gotta Get Up,” on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno on November 26th.

Re: Jill Got Married
 

Ohhh, I am so happy for her!! I hope they will have pictures of it in Jet or Ebony. Did you hear that Tichina Arnold(Pam from Martin) is with...MC Lyte! I had no idea that she, well either of them for that matter went that way.

Re: Re: Jill Got Married
 

Now, I didn't know about Tichina, but I'm not surprised about MC Lyte.

Did yall know that Angela Bassett has a movie coming out on Showtime? Ruby's Box of Blood or something like that. It's about her and this married white man and their love triangle. Looks like it will be pretty good. December 1st.

Showtime certainly makes an effort with their programming to be inclusive of all kinds of people - a much better job than HBO I think (where the only time you are likely to see a black man is on Oz).

I have to give that channel major props!

I heard this morning on the Russ Parr Morning show that Da Brat is seeing a female stripper and that she has been seen at the Strip Club supporting her new found lady mate.

Left Eye's a Mom
 

World Entertainment News Network--R&B babe LISA 'LEFT EYE' LOPES has adopted an eight-year-old girl called SNOW - to go with her secret son.

The TLC singer admitted to Britain's SUNDAY TIMES MAGAZINE that she'd adopted the daughter of TRENA, a girl she met in rehab.

TLC fans have known for some time that Lisa had adopted, but she has thus far been reluctant to speak publicly about Snow, who can be seen singing in her new BLOCK PARTY video.

Lisa also confessed she adopted a 12-year-old boy called JAMAL when she was just 20. This was the first time the rapper has mentioned Jamal - about whom little is known - although she says he is "making a record with his band".

The Los Angeles Times reported today that Laker star Shaquille O'Neal was excused from practice yesterday so he could attend the birth of his child.
The baby's name is Amirah Sanaa. Daddy said the name means "pure and beautiful" in the Muslim faith.
If I'm not mistaken, this is the Diesel's fourth child. Shawn Kemp, look out!:eek: :eek: :eek:

What the hell is with these people having all these out of wedlock kids?....What the F

That's just how it is now...marriage is no longer a norm for maaany people.

I mean damn, one of the N'Sync guys is a baby daddy, and on Friends, the most popular show on air this season (well, behind ER anyway - which has had a number of kids born out of wedlock) is featuring a storyline in which a major character is having a kid and not married.

USHER POPS MORE THAN COLLAR
Singer suffers dislocated shoulder.

*F'get about popping your collar, Usher has popped his shoulder, and the injury has delayed the start of his nationwide tour, moving the launch date from December to April of next year. Usher suffered a dislocated shoulder while rehearsing for the show last week and underwent surgery Monday. He'll be resting and recuperating for about three months.
According to reports, the show apparently was to feature
the young artists doing handstands and backflips-much to the
choreography efforts of Usher himself. Because of the delay,
there's no word yet if scheduled opening act, Fabolous, will
still participate when the tour starts up late Spring.
If you just can't wait till then to get a glimpse of Usher,
his new movie, "Texas Rangers," will be in theaters
November 30.

Re: Left Eye's a Mom
 

I guess when you have money it doesn't matter how old you are when you adopt. This just doesn't sound right to me. HOw can you be 20 and actually go through the adoption process.

DESTINY'S CHILD TO PERFORM FOR UNCF
Hot Houston Group And Other Stars Will Appear On 2002 Television Fund-Raiser


Destiny's Child
(Nov. 15, 2001) Fairfax, VA -- The United Negro College Fund (UNCF) has announced that Destiny's Child will perform on the national January 5, 2002 coast-to-coast star-studded television fund-raiser An Evening of Stars: A Celebration of Educational Excellence. The program will air on January 6, 2002 in some markets. Check your local television listing.

"We're blessed to have a successful career in the music business. That's why we're here to help the United Negro College Fund continue working for all of our deserving brother and sisters," stated Destiny's Child's trio Beyonce Knowles, Kelly Rowland, and Michelle Williams.

An Evening of Stars will light up the nation's television airwaves with electrifying concert performances by some of music's hottest acts.

Horvitz returns as director and producer. The national sponsors for An Evening of Stars are AT&T, Prudential, JP Morgan Chase and American Airlines. "Thanks to our celebrities, sponsors, and supporters, last year, An Evening of Stars raised a record $13.7 million in cash and pledges. For every dollar UNCF collects in donations, more than 85 cents goes directly to supporting the college ambitions of needy young people," said William H. Gray, III, President and CEO, United Negro College Fund. "Today there are more than 60,000 students who depend on our support to attend UNCF colleges and graduate schools."

The United Negro College Fund is the nation's oldest African American higher education assistance organization. UNCF enhances the quality of education by raising operating funds for its 39 member colleges and universities and providing financial assistance to deserving students attending UNCF and other American colleges and universities. UNCF administers more than 450 scholarships and fellowships to students and faculty who attend its member colleges and universities, other HBCUs, and majority institutions throughout the country.

Cosby Finishes 'Fat Albert' Script

NEW YORK (AP) - Bill Cosby has finished co-writing the script for the ``Fat Albert'' movie, based on the 1970's cartoon show he created.

Now he's trying to decide whether fans want to hear him do the voices of Fat Albert, Bill and Mushmouth again, just as he did for the TV series.

``I don't know if my Fat Albert, if it's a little too full and robust now and old, and what I would like to try is perhaps to find or have auditions for someone who could really imitate what's on the track,'' the 64-year-old comedian told AP Radio.

``Would they prefer to hear something that's very, very close, or the fellow that used to do it, 36 years older?''

Forest Whitaker (``Waiting to Exhale,'' ``Hope Floats'') will direct the movie, which will be part animation and part live action. It's scheduled for release in summer 2003.

OK
 

I'm glad I found this thread, I have been dying to post this!


Ok am I the only one that had a fit hearing that Babyface caught his wife Tracey Edmunds in bed with Derek Fisher? Lawd it was all over the airwaves! But I heard they called into a radio station and said it wasn't true.


Chilli and Usher are engaged.




QTE ;)

Re: OK
 

Who is Derek Fisher?

derek fisher
 

Derek Fisher is a Basketball player. I forgot which team.

Not only did our morning show talk about this, but Wendy Williams did also. And 2-way's were going back and forth on it.

I was like wow!


QTE ;)

eeeek
 

usher and chilli engaged?????? what happened with her and dallas austin :eek:

dunno
 

But they said usher told his peeps they are engaged, but no date or anything like that has been set of course.

I think they really are in love, but Chilli is rocking the cradle full force on this one!


QTE

Re: derek fisher
 

Lakers, I think. Light skinned dude, little round head, head band?

Re: Re: derek fisher
 

Yeah, that's him. He's the point guard for the Lakers. Real good player actually.

Yeah it was stated on the radio here as well for the 411 dish and they mentioned a B-ball player but I never heard the name....Damn Derek Fisher that is one of my main players that I like for the Lakers. He just came back from an injury. But I had heard a while back that Tracy was stepping out on Face.

Re: derek fisher
 

Derek Fisher is a point guard, in the 6-foot range, for the Lakers. He's OK looking, not wonderfully handsome.

How long have they been married?

9 years
 

In last months Ebony...it said that Babyface and his wife had been married for 9 years and had know each other/dated for 11 years....

They looked rather happy on the cover of Ebony...but you never know....

I just wonder...how does all this information get out (smile)

Re: 9 years
 

11 years really, I thought she was a video dancer for one of his videos but she didn't get picked because she got a case of chicken pox. They met again at another video thingy and they hooked up from there, but I didn't think it was 11 years, but I may be wrong.

Tracy Edmonds was going to be in the Whip Appeal video, but she got chicken pox. I grooved to Whip Appeal when I was about a sophomore in college, and I graduated in 93 (sophomore in 90-91), so I guess that 11 years is about right.:)

Re: dunno
 

Vanessa L. Williams-Fox(x) is also. She is a good bit older than that Laker/ponytail wearing husband.

Dang for real it's been 11 years. I don't know about the rest of you all but it seems like they just got together and got married like 5 years ago. Damn the years are flying way to fast. I scanned the article in Ebony....and there it was again...11 years, dang I'm starting to feel really old.:p FAST.:)

Re: Re: dunno
 

....and I wish he would do something with his damn hair.:eek:

Here is some more juice I found on some sites:

Mary J. Blige is ready to settle down. The singer tells the New York Times that she's engaged to an unnamed man who "loves me more than I've ever been loved before." Blige says the best thing about her mystery man is that he isn't interested in capitalizing on her fame and fortune. Mary performs her hit "No More Drama" tonigh on Jay Leno.

************************************************** **
TLC have begun recording their next album. They've finished one song with Ja Rule, three with singer-producer Raphael Saadiq and will soon start work with Kenneth "Babyface" Edmonds, Jimmy Jam & Terry Lewis and Dallas Austin. Now that might be pretty awkward now that she and Usher are serious. I spoke to a label rep and no marriage is on the horizon for Usher and Chili just yet but they always get into confrontations when in public. In other TLC news, Lisa "Left Eye" Lopez new single "Block Party" didn't make much noise in the States but it's quickly becoming a hit in Europe and Japan.

************************************************** **
Beyonce says fame and fortune have deprived her of true love. Beyonce told London's Daily Mirror that her long-term romance with her high school sweet heart went down the tubes earlier this year as Destiny's Child blew up. Now she says " I used to think that being who I am would never make any difference to my love life. But I realize I was being a bit naive."

Re: Re: Re: dunno
 

I agree. Rick, although he's a bit too pretty for my taste;), should cut the hair. But maybe as long as the Lakers are on a roll, he won't do anything. Pity.

Ok, Face and Tracey Edmonds are on the Tom Joyner Morning show right now and they are saying that it is a lie about Tracey being caught in bed with Derek Fisher. Tracey claims this is all a huge lie and she didn't even know who Derek Fisher was until this lie came out. :eek: From what they said, Face called her and said that he had just heard on the readio that he caught her in bed with Derek Fisher. HEr response was who is Derek Fisher?

Okay,

I couldn't figure out how to insert the image; but, if you go to this link: http://www.nba.com/playerfile/derek_fisher/index.html you will see Mr. Fisher.

Let's just say that I'm NOT visually impressed!

But he really does have a nice b-ball game.:p

Me either
 

I do not condone adultery but if my husband is going to catch me in bed with somebody, let it be SOMEONE who looks good cuz he looks like any old joe.

Momma Toni
 

Toni Braxton is now a mom!!

Denim Cole Braxton Lewis was born yesterday afternoon to Toni Braxton.

**whispering** I am not feeling Denim.:rolleyes: :confused:

Re: Momma Toni
 

I hope it's pronounced Dah-neem.
