CURRENT EVENTS/ CELEBRITY STYLE...

This thread is where you can post current information on famous people.

I read in the paper today that track star Marion Jones and her hubby/coach are separated and are filing for a divorce.

You know he was the guy who was accused of having some kind of illegal substance in his system during the Olympics. He denied the allegations, but was banned from the Olympics. After that, he retired.

Wow, that's news to me....they seemed to have a solid marriage (at least from what I read in a previous issue of Vogue)

Sometimes what looks like strength really isn't. I say that because it looked as if they were handling things so well during the Olympics....and it turns out that kind of pressure put a real strain on their marriage, or may have put increased tension on what may have been an already crumbling marriage. I'm sorry to hear of this.

I heard this past week that Kobe's new wife Vanessa Laine is pregnant!! Now if this is not true then I apologize, but if it is true, then I knew that there had to be a reason why they got married so soon.
*******
Lela Rochon is also rumored to be pregnant (I hope so )

wasn't she pregnant BEFORE the nuptials? and wasn't that the "reason" he married her?

Yeah she was but it wasn't officially announced that Vanessa was pregnant until recently-at least I didn't hear about it thru the media till last week.

Now I know that was a real mess! "Uh, uh, see, now, uh, Joe, I mean, uh, yo' Honor..."

Ike was on HOT97's (NYC Metro Area) Star and Bucwild Morning Show a few weeks ago. They played one of his songs and like how Rayzon said "LAWD HAMMERCY"-it was called Safe Sexin'or something to that point. I was dying-(lmao)

RAYZON · #11 06-08-2001, 01:44 PM

Nikki25.........rotfl. I think the fool was crying over $1500 because some woman took him for what little money he had. He looked like a pure fool. I was waiting for him to start crying Anna Maaaaaaaae, Anna Maaaaaaaaaae!!

Jennifer Lopez need to go sit down somewhere. She must have split up with puffy all of two months and she is engaged already. LAWD HAMMERCY!!!

Ok here is a real stinker. The other day on the radio it finally came out about The Williams Family. The father has been abusing the mom for some time now and once fractured some ribs. The show went on to say that Richard tried to cover the whole thing up by saying of course that she was injured from falling off a snowmobile. Be for real have you seen Oracene(yeah that's her name). Well anyways some how she got some common sense from somewhere and reportedly they are legally separated. Now that just makes we wonder what did he do to Venus & Serena?

ROTFL! "Now, now, now, see, see, see, ya wrong... f-f-f-five dollar fine!" Ya'll What's Love Got to Do With It came on a couple of days ago and I kept trying to imagine Ike with a new record. How old is he anyway? 70??
