Exclusive: Horrifying Death of Reality Star's Baby
Posted Sep 26th 2006 9:40PM by TMZ Staff
Filed under: TV, Music
A rapper's wife gave birth Thursday, but the scene quickly turned to tragedy after their newborn girl was pronounced dead.
Rev Run, a.k.a. Joseph Simmons, shocked fans last year when he announced that his wife Justine was pregnant on his MTV reality show "Rev's House."
Justine's pregnancy was the cliffhanger on the MTV show last season. It generated intense interest among viewers who have been anxiously following the pregnancy and awaiting the birth.
Simmons, a member of the legendary rap group Run DMC, was at Valley Hospital in Ridgewood New Jersey Tuesday for the birth of his child. Doctors delivered the baby via c-section, revealing a cruel twist of fate -- the baby girl was born with organs outside the body. The newborn died a short time later.
TMZ has learned that MTV cameras were inside the hospital at the time of the birth, though we do not know if they were in the delivery room.

Okay, I really don't want to believe that story. Praying that it's not true...

When were you there? Was it the Newark site? My girlfriend/soror received her DMD from there in 1998ish,'99ish (I think).

Sad to hear about TO. Sounds like he is crying out for help. Hope he gets it.

Condolences to Rev. Run and his family.
I also hope that T. O. gets the help he needs.

I'm sad to hear all of this news. I'll have to lift them up in prayer.
