Congratulations. They seem like a nice couple.

he’s not going to marry her

LOL @ #2. I, too, wondered why the long engagement. Anyway, Congrats to them.

Hell Yea #2, but she’s set for life now, is this another Kim Porter, talking about having this career, few glimpses of it, but all they are doing is getting knocked up??

Boo. Why can’t anybody get married first then have the baby?

Congrats to them they probably get married after # 3 I wanna be like kim porter when I grow.

Very true #6!!!

Still I wish them the best.

LALA SEEMS TO HAVE HIM SPRUNG, NEVER REALLY WAS A BIG FAN OF HERS BUT CONGRATS TO THEM BOTH. I THINK THAT HE WILL MARRY HER.

Children are such a blessing!

Good for them. Hope they do get married.

Just lovely!

I don’t think they’ll get married either, if he hasn’t done it yet, why would a baby close the deal?

Lol@ they plan to wed after the baby’s born. Well, times are certainly different. As long as that baby is loved and cared for that’s all that matters in the long run. Cute couple, too…

Im at school right now, I heard about that story. Its too soon for the announcement. Why can’t they wait till she gives birth.
Lala my girl tho, you sure she ain’t pregnant wit my baby tho?lol Seriously she looks good, I thought I was gonna wife her before Carmelo Anthony. Word is that Carmelo is a Pot Head, blazin in shit. He was on some show(AMW MAYBE).

Naw, they aint gone get married. Seems like they got too many issues. One minute she rockin the ring and the next minute she aint got the ring on….

But like Ne’ said…children are a blessing so Congrats to them.

“This will be the first child for both. The couple, engaged since Christmas Day 2004, plan to wed after the baby’s birth”.

Interesting.
* I promised to behave myself today, so I’l leave that quote alone……..

he aint gonna wife her.why would the baby change it.just some bullshit excuse

They ain’t hardly gettin’ married. Ol’ Boy is only 22. I hope they have a healthy baby though…

I’m glad to see all my ppls comin back to CL! I haven’t heard yall comments in a minute! I wanna hear from all the OG’s(includin me) that was here a while ago from
(BashyBoo,Ne’,,Caff,Meatloaf,Asbury,GGBOO,Bill,etc. Yall comments was hilarious. Still trippin off som.LMAO

I think they make a lovely couple. Well I guess Congratulations is in order. So Congrats on the expected child and the engagement.

Hi Bill!

lol @ 2

well what if they accidentally got preggers (condom broke, she forgot pill) wutever the case
and she didnt want to get married preggers…alot of women dont
so they decide to wait until after she has the baby
is this not possible?

Bless this family.

They are doing it kinda, “bass ackwards”.

They don’t know whether to scratch their watch or wind their butt!

Career
Marriage
Family

Simple!

#2 U SAID WHAT I DIDNT WANT TO TYPE! BUT THIS IS A LOVELY STORY I HOPE IT WORKS OUT FOR THEM, I JUST HAVE AN ISSUE WITH OLDER WOMEN/YOUNGER MEN, SINCE WE ARE 7YEARS OLDER THAN OUR AGE AND MEN ARE 7YRS YOUNGER.

I THINK IT’S TACKY TO MARRY AFTER YOU HAVE KIDS OR BEING A PREGNANT BRIDE OR HAVING YOUR DAMN KIDS IN THE WEDDING, CALL ME OLD SCHOOL I GUESS . I KNOW THIS COMMENT WILL SPARK A DEBATE BUT IT IS MY OPINION SO BRING IT ON!

BUT ANYWAY IM NOT SAYING LALA ISNT A LOVELY WOMAN I JUST CANT TAKE HER AND HER NASAL TALKIN AND SHE ALWAYS LOOK LIKE SOMTHING AROUND HER STINKS…LINDA LIKE MC LYTE TALKIN THROUGH THE NOSE AND SHIT…

SHOUT OUT TO DINO !!
IM JUST HAPPY THINGS “SEEM” TO BE BACK IN ORDER ON THIS SITE. ILL KEEP ON PRAYING, MUAH TO BILL HE HAS SOOOO MANY FANS!! LOL SHAYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY

congrats to them…

Hey Dino, Nix, Bashboy, Foxxy380, EVERYBODY !!

I missed you too !!!

Love ya like a Play cousin !!

La la will forever remain a “wifey” instead of a wife. Once you start poppin babies you can forget about walking down the aisle.

I feel u #4

#4 Tracey said: “…she’s set for life now!”

Don’t count the chickens before the eggs hatch!

#28 lol….”wifey” “wifette” or “wifish” “wifelike”
hehe! “wiffle” “wife-aide”

i love melo and la la together. much luck to the pregnancy and i hope they have a healthy baby.

@ #5: That is a very good question. People are so backwards today, and no one seems to care. Just as long as these baby mamas get the check, they could care less what kind of foundation the child has.

Oh and one more thing. 27? She looks more like 37.

What’s up Bill, BashyBoo and all of CL! That’s a shame how excited we get when the site is back up. LOL!!! I don’t know how CL did it but I thought I would never be a junkie! LMAO! What did they do to me?

One baby by an NBA player won’t “set you for life” as some have said. There are toooo many guys in the league who have kids by women they don’t intend to marry.

Besides Lala’s rep was the one speaking of their “plan to wed after the baby’s born”. It’s just a plan, I didn’t see a date. They obviously been “planning” something for the past 2, almost 3 years.

I wonder if that is an old pic, cause he doesn’t look like a proud papa-to-be to me.

This is pitiful…LaLa’s grown ass should’ve been on birth control…she knows better than that. How dumb.
Amen #24…and for the record…LaLa really isn’t cute.

Something else ladies….take note..this is big shit I’m about to tell you…..When a man really wants to marry a woman, he doesn’t take 3 years to actually marry her after he’s proposed. He’s stringing you along, so you won’t nag.

Mello and LaLa sitting in a tree
f-u-c-k-i-n-g
First comes the baby
Then maybe it’s the marriage….

CA I SEE U GO BOY

Bill Said:
PREACH Nicole !!
This is ridiculous…

A Man KNOWS IMMEDIATLY if he wants to get married or not, but will usually take from 4-8 months to close the deal
** Brother’s REALLT need to do a background check on women to make certain they ain’t hooking up with a gold digger, a go go dancer or a former man..

***Brother’s also need to take “wifey to be” to the doctor RIGHT AWAY to get a AIDS Test…

A Dear DEAR friend of mine just passed away..
She had been living with AIDS for over 20 years, and she just died last week..

Her Husband was a substance abuser, and everyone on the block knew it, but she was young & dumb and wouldn’t take anyone’s advice…
Anyways, He died immediatly, and now she’s dead 20 years after the fact…

Anyways, Back on Point:
It takes about 4-8 months for a brother to put the ring on a women’s finger, and walk down the aisle..
IF it takes longer than a year for a guy to pop the question, HE’s NOT GOING TO MARRY YOU.

Sorry to break it down like that,
But that’s just how it is…

Peace

Melo ain’t tryin’ to marry Lala, but Lala and baby are set for life. Lala you done good girl, LOL

I agree with #24 LaLa is too damn old for Melo.I mean tying this young man down with a baby(I know it takes two to tango)but she need to get somebody her own age

Man Im just plain disgusted!!!

Talkin bout they gonna get married after the baby born!!!!!

WHAT THA F***(YALL KNOW THE REST)!!!

If everyone on this site is so morally superior and doesn’t believe in having kids before marriage, than who are all the unwed mothers running around here?
I am so not disturbed by a brother making a million dollars plus on a guaranteed contract (guaranteed if he has a career-ending injury or is dead for that matter) having a baby out of wedlock. At least Carmelo can afford it. LaLa is on the MTV payroll so a sistah has a job and career. Kim Porter has no discernible source of income that I’ve ever heard of aside from child support. So they can’t be compared.
As long as the two of them are in sync about how to raise the child and spend the quality time needed to raise it when or if they get married is nobody’s business but theirs. Now these teenagers with no jobs living up in mama’s house still trying to go to a Chris Brown concert, those kids the ones I’m worried about.

IMO anyone who waits longer than a year to get married these days is someone with sense
i even condone living with a person before you actually get married

isnt marriage supposed to be till death do us part?
well thats a long ass time
unless people marrying these days are in it for a good 5 or 10 years and then its quits (which seems to be the case anyways) dont you think you should really get to know someone 2 or 3 years before making the committment to be with them FOR THE REST OF YOUR LIFE
because then if thats not the case…why is the divorce rate so high?

# 40 I disagree with a man popping the question after a year. I feel it takes a little longer than a year to really get to know someone. I would look at a man like he has truly lost his mind if he is trying to propose at a years time. In my opinion that is just entirely to early.

#43..You are ghetto as hell for that comment, but you are funny as hell. LOL @ Chris Brown concert.
*Dying on the floor*

OK BILL!! Damn, you are TOO much! Dead on right as usual though…I have always said that if a man waits over a year to ask you to marry him, he isn’t gonna ask…He doesn’t want you like that. I”ve also always thought, and you confirmed it, that men know immediately if they want to get down with you like that. Just like women know.
LOL @ Gold digger, go go dancer, or a former man…I love the way you just threw the former man comment in there.
Listen to Bill!! Get tested and use rubbers…ALWAYS!

Bill, that is so sad about your friend. Was she depressed these past 20 years?

further more if a guy asked me to marry him after 4 - 8 months i would be scared
like what are you desperate
need a green card or something

LOL

Nix, living together guarantees you nothing except, you probably won’t get married, and you’ll have fucked each other’s brains out if and when you do get married…#45….You obviously haven’t been in love because if you had, you’d know that a year is a lot of time to know if he’s marriage material. There is no guarantee you know a man if you kick it with him for 2,3,4,5 years.

He said the guy knows if he wants to marry you within 4-8 months…he didn’t say the guy was asking Nix.

uh #49
bill knows how i do
i was joking around with him on that

ok nichole
and have u ever thought maybe some people WANT to just live together?
fall back hun
not everyone read the princess diaries at age 8

Nix,
Here is the reason why it should NOT take a man 4-8 months to marry you

The reason why I put the 4-8 month equation in there is this:
If I want to marry you, then I’m attracted to you !!

I want to enjoy the fruits & juice of your nectar…

You know what I’m saying..
I’ll want to make love to you…
Now for months I’m walking around all hot & bothered, and your teasing me, flirting with me, and I realize that the ONLY way I’m going to “get it” is to MARRY YOU !!

See ladies..It’s THAT simple.
This is the way GOD intended it to be !!!

So…Along THOSE lines it should not take a man longer than 4-8 months to make up his mind to get married..No LONGER than a year
** This will ONY WORK If the lady isn’t giving up the goodies…
Now if she gives him the goodies BEFORE they are married, he WILL WAIT, and test the waters, to see if there is something better out there…
BELIEVE THAT !!!

Nix, My friend (who died of AIDS) was NOT depressed.
In fact she was a very famous AIDS activist, wrote several books on the topic of Living with AIDS, and she set up a support group for Women living with the AIDS Virus.
Do a Goggle search on Caroly Jenkins Pineda if you are interested in her, her support group and her Life’s Legacy..
Carolyn’s Home Going Service was Last Friday.
May Her Soul now rest in Peace.
She’s in Heaven With Jesus now !!!

and i never said it guranteed anything
please dont mis quote me if you’re gonna comment on my post

i said in MY OPINION
living together before getting married is something i would condone

#43 Kim Porter is an event planner along with two other women known as “3 Brown Girls” so she aint just some baby mama and yes you can compare her to LaLa.

Its a trip how folks making babies errrrwhere but nobody wants to commit to marriage

Just a bit ass backwards wouldnt you agree?

ok Bil i see you and will comment later when i reach home

but for the record I always respect you as an inteliigent thinker

Thanks Nix..And I respect you also !!

My Trinidadian Sister from Brooklyn !!

We’re going to have to double date one evening….

Whatever Nix…LOL Go ahead and live together…what for though?? I personally am not cooking and cleaning up for/after some Negro who isn’t going to marry me. Sorry.
Did I say I was quoting you??? Hell no…I was just TELLING you that it didn’t guarantee anything. Actually I was directing that guarantee comment to everyone, not just you. Never read the Princess Diaries either…might be worth the read if it emphasizes to girls that they shouldn’t live with a man.

#54…..Having a job doesn’t mean Kim Porter isn’t ordinary…she’s an event planner…so what? You can be anything you want when your baby daddy has $300 million. Having money means nothing when you kid comes to you and asks why Daddy didn’t love you enough to marry you.

*your kid*

Nicole,

Thank you for your comments.
I appreciate you.

* Listen Nix is a real cool person.
She’s has her point of view, and I always respect her, and vice versa…
We don’t always agree with each other, but we ALWAYS respect one another…

# 48- A year is too early STILL in My opinion and I am not saying in 2-7 years you will truly and really know EVERYTHING about your man because you never will know everything but a year is just TOO EARLY.

I mean gimmie a break a year??? Are you kidding me. Get real

LOL @ A YEAR, now that’s some funny mess right there

Lady J,

can I ask you a hypothetical question.

How long did it take for your parents to get married ??

MY Parent’s got married within two months of meeting (mother was a Virgin, when she married my father), and my parent’s marrige laste over 50 years, until he passed away…

If YOU feel that getting married before a year is to early, then that’s on you…

I belive in Love at First sight.

And basically in my OWN experiences, I found that A MAN KNOWS RIGHT AWAY, whether your the one or not..

I got married 5 months to the day after meeting my wife, and we have been going strong for 20 years now…

But that’s my opinion…
Your may be differant, and I respect that.

OK Lady J..I appreciate your opinion..I just disagree that a year is too early for him to propose. I know many people it’s worked out for, including myself. I also know people who had the same viewpoint as you and they waited over a year. They aren’t still married, or never got married. My only point was that usually, what you know in two years, you already knew at one year…you just decided to wait.

Bill, tell me about this Love at First site thing because I”ve never heard that being true. Is it?

#57 When I was stating what Kim Porter does I was not saying she is above average I was addressing the fact that she has a career as well and make note she is a celebrity event planner . I was saying that to address #43.

Dont get it twisted to me me she just another braod that done struck it rich too! LOLOL!!

Wateva, i dont even like Carmello

She did strike it rich, didn’t she? lol REAL rich..I just wish Puff would learn to close his mouth when he isn’t talking.

Point blank- It should not take 10 years( being sarcastic) to propose to someone, but a year is not HARDLY enough time either.

True colors are coming out in a years time and a year is just the beginning up a relationship to me.

A year is rushing, all you are doing by proposing ina years time is hurrying up the seperation or divorce papers. Take your time.

I have one friend who was proposed to in a years time and is now wanting to give the ring back and see what else the world has to offer, WHY? because his true colors started coming out and she realized that more time is needed and she feels as though she rushed into things. We all advised her to wait a little longer but she was blinded by the bling bling. And ya know what, he is not feeling her as much as he did either.

Nicole,

The MINUTE (The SECOND) I laid Eyes on my Wife I KNEW she was the one for me.

God created a Help Mate for EVERYONE.

When Man was created, God took a rib out of man and created WOMAN.

Modern Man spends his eternity (or his younger years) looking for his missing rib.

God gives us a “Sixth Sense” (Actually a DISCERMENT) when we meet our mates for life..

It’s really that simple.
A Man KNOWS who is going to be his wife, because God will cause the man to fall in Love with her IMMEDIATLY.

That’s why I say that this waiting to get married is ridiculous.
If God placed my HelpMate for LIFE in fron t of me, and God TOLD me that this is the women that I’m going to marry, WHY WOULD I wait more than a year to marry her ???

Now You SHOULD wait 4-8 months, maybe a year because you’ll have to do the following
- Get PRE MARITIAL COUNSELING !!
- Get AIDS Test
- DO A Complete background Check - Criminal History as well as a Credit Check.
- Look for a House
- BUY the House before getting married (so you have somewhere nice to move after the honeymoon).
- Plan the Marrige Ceremony, PAY for the Ceremony & the RINGS BEFOREHAND (don’t use your credit cards).

Nicole, If you need more advice, I’m going to set up my own Website & Blog !!
jkd

# 61 And I am very happy for you and your wife.

My parents wanted to get engaged after a year but my grandmother advised my mother to wait another year and she did. My father is a jerk still till this day and they were divorced after 3 yeras of marriage.

She told me she married a man that she thought she knew but his jacka$$ ways came out later.

YAWN !!!

I also donot believe in Love at first sight, No disrespect Bill but I believe that it is a bunch a bull.

Everyone may have their own definitions of love but “love at first sight” is not happening with me. You don’t even know me, how could you love me?? What is it that you could possibly “love” about me at first sight besides my appearance or what I am wearing???? is what I would ask a man

I guarantee you that true colors come out MUCH earlier than a year…within a few weeks, or months, you know if that N**** is crazy or not….You can pretty much tell what kind of person he is by his friends and family also, who you will obviously know within a years time. After reading YOUR story, I can see why you’d feel the way you do though. My only point was that you can end up filing papers no matter when you marry someone. You can give them 5 years before you marry and you may divorce.

Do that Bill! I”d love to see your Web site.

congrats to them. i wish they would’ve gotten married too because they have been engaged far too long.

I DON’T THINK THERE GONE TO GET MARRIED EITHER

And Bill before I leave for the record, I respect your opinion as well.

My intent is not to offend or come off as being harsh to anyone but I do not apologize for being opinionated either.
