RUMOR: MAIA CAMPBELL STOLE A JEEP?
Monday, May 7, 2007

Add another chapter to the sad saga of actress Maia Campbell, daughter of late author Bebe Moore Campbell. Mount Airy’s Kevin Taylor filed a police report Monday accusing Campbell, who co-starred with LL Cool J on the series “In the House,” with stealing his Jeep in Germantown.
According to Taylor and his friend Steve Johnson, the pair left Campbell and the car keys alone in the white 1998 Jeep Cherokee registered to Taylor’s father, Christ Taylor, as they went into Johnson’s home to retrieve musical gear. When they came outside minutes later, Campbell and the car were gone, they said. Sources say Campbell has been floating around Germantown of late and doesn’t seem to be in a good way.
Taylor and Johnson each left messages on Campbell’s cell phone, but she did not return the calls. Nor did she return a message we left her yesterday.
Johnson befriended Campbell and invited her Monday to hang out with him and Taylor.
Northwest Detectives are investigating the auto theft. Anyone with info on the whereabouts of the car or Campbell is asked to call 215-686-3353

I hope someone finds her soon. Unfortunately, she a black girl so you know how that goes. I have a cousin that is bi-polar and in my experience you have to be kind, loving and a GOOD listener so they can let you into their thoughts. Thank God that my cousin had the strength to check herself in the hospital, because it could have easily turned out like Maia. Being that she lost her mom and she probably feels alone. Just like Something Fierce said their is a reason before the crack use.

I know Bebe is rolling over in her grave 3 times over this. Maia has so much potential and she really can turn it around but SHE has to be the one to get help for the mental illness bc I can contest from suffering from clinical depression, its only going to get worse. You have to find it within yourself to get the help u need. The drugs doesnt alleviate the problem nor mask but just elevate it!

Wow poor girl!
1) Looking at the pic…I didn’t even know that was her.
2) I had no idea she’s in the Philly area. Maia girl, my advice is to give that damn car back and STOP joy ridding around in Philly. People are dropping like flies out there, you don’t wanna be next.
3) I’ll be praying for her tonight…poor girl.

#16 Good for you for having some compassion.
Maia is bi-polar. She is mentally ill and mentally ill people often self-medicate. Her mother wrote a book called “72 Hour Hold” about her, saying it was about a “relative” when folks in the business knew it was Maia that was ill.
Bi-polar illness is very difficult to treat. And its symptoms can often be confused with addiction. Medication is the only way to control it and people with the illness don’t always want to take them as it makes them smooth out too much.
I hope she gets caught while she’s manic maybe she can get the help she needs. Philly is her mother’s hometown, so maybe ther is family there.

Maybe it’s me but I still think she is a pretty girl. She was clearly not in her right mind. I saw the video without the pixilation and she had a cute body being that she is on crack (better than whitney)
This should be a lesson to every woman out there go to school, looks will fade, don’t depend on a man because aging is natural. (civilans should do this)
(Maia only)To Maia girlfriend why not just hookup with a ball player…your acting career is questionable so you should went that route.

Whoever said that she has 2 sons is WRONG. She has one daughter named Elizabeth( so cute) and her husband name is Elias Guitierrez. Its sad because her mom died in Nov. of last year, soits still kind of fresh and she’s probally still trying to deal but going about it in the wrong way. I hope she gets help though.
—Here’s a pic of her husband and daughter.–

Damn, I reallly feel bad for her! So bad in fact, I put an extra L in the word really. But I have seen this happen so many times, usually it’s the baddest chick in high school or college that everyone wanted to get with, then you run into her five or ten years later and she’s all strung out, her looks have gone down the drain, then suddenly she remembers that you wanted her back in the day, and tries to turn on the charm as if you haven’t noticed that she’s totally disgusting to you now… So you throw a few dollars at her out of sympathy..

Man, You hit the nail on the Head, My Brother !
The “pretty girls” always seemed to get turned out….
They will sometimes end up being “Escorts” “Go Go Dancers” or “Queen Fiends”
People tell them they are so beautiful, and they start to rely on their Looks instead of focusing on their school work, and improving their intellect.
The Dope Boys are always on the look out for attractive looking women with low self esteem.
They will give these “girls” money & free drugs..
One thing will lead to another.
What you have above is the final result.
Cracked Out & Strung Out.
Pray for all of our Beautiful Black Young Ladies who seem to think just because their fine, they don’t have to study, apply themselves or go to work like normal folk.
Pray for everyone addicted to the streets.
From The Dope Boys to Strippers & Hookers
Peace

I take it real fucking serious how this indutry does people who crash and burn man. Maia Campbell was like held up so high and great things were supposed to happen for her. DRUGS and ADDICTION are diseases and no one did an intervention?? All this fucking talk of having each other’s back etc, those guys who took the video are the fucking scum of society. Why is it this whole liberal “do what you want” and “get money” attitude come from, the whole “I ain’t her mama” “I didn’t force her to do it” bullshit come from.

I didn’t know she had two boys. In her interview with Sister 2 Sister she stated she had a daughter. I guess she has 3 kids. I’d read her mom was taking care of her kids before she passed. I too wonder who has the kids.

She is on a downwrad spiral to nowhere good fast! I hope that she gets it together and seeks out the help that she so obviously needs. Drug addiction is a terrible thing, and I would imagine that combined withdrug use its even worse. Ill be praying for her.Its not even funny how bad she looks.

If you don’t do anything else…stop what your doing this very minute and pray for this young lady. She is bipolar and addicted to drugs. It’s not uncommon for people that are mentally ill to attempt to medicate or control their mania with drugs, alcohol and addictive/compulsive behavior. We should not be laughing at her condition or judging her, she is not in her right mind and this is not ‘intentional’ behavior displayed by someone who is sane. Let’s pray for her recovery, for God to restore her to her right mind and to give her a testimony to share with the world. We can learn from her what has been a personal hell for her and have some compassion. This is someones daughter, sister, friend….think about someone you love that could have been in this same situation. Out of respect for her deceased mother, in the spirit of our ancestors that would pray and covet those that were weak, let’s pray for her recovery and hold her down in prayer like she was our very own.

This just shows that being pretty is not the key to life, being pretty couldn’t stop her mother from passing away last year a day after Maia’s birthday, being pretty couldn’t stop Maia from suffering from mental illnesses and being pretty certianly doesnt stop real life from occuring around you. I feel sorry for Maia some one needs to reach out to her before she ends up on Blvd. of broken dreams. She is odviously not ok and probely not taking her meds.

Yeah, I read the book 72 hour hold and it was about a woman struggling to care for her bi-polar daughter. Clearly this is the case bcuz now that her motheres dead she is more depressed and has no one who will save her. I am a big fan of her mothers work but I dont think Mia should just give up. She can stay on her meds if she just gets help.

@130 DARNELL
Unfortunately, you’re right. Addicts rarely accept the help offered through interventions. They have to hit ROCK BOTTOM and that’s usually when they are arrested and are placed in drug treartment programs. I’ve worked with men and women released from the “system”, so I’ve had some experience.
The criminal justice system is slowly comimg around to the fact that drug addicts neither get clean in one try, nor do they need to be locked up in prisons for extended periods of time, of course this depends on what you’re arrested for. If it’s a straight up drug purchase charge, you’re usually sent to court ordered rehab.
Clearly, this poor baby is fighting a dual illness: Addiction and mental illness. And I can’t look at her picture without the pain in her face searing through my screen.
I truly hope that she does indeed hit her bottom (in a non-violent way, of course) and gets the help she needs.

Man, I used to have a thing for Maia back when she was on ITH. If someone would’ve told me back then that she’d turn out like this, I would’ve never believed it. But, her bizarre interviews in KING (2002) and Sister 2 Sister Magazine (2004) were more than enough indication that she was on something.
And, for the record, she doesn’t have any sons–She only has one daughter. Maia has pictures of her daughter and ex-husband on her site (maiacampell.tripod.com).
It’s never a good thing to see anyone in a situation like this (And that so-called ‘Cracked-out video’ that that above picture came from certainly doesn’t help things, either).
Like someone said earlier, Mental Illness + Drug Addiction is a deadly combination, especially when you’re a Celebrity. Industry Insider had a point with the comments about how Hollywood and black people treat their own when they’re going through hard times. Hopefully, she’ll make it through.

It is truly ashamed what is happening to Maia. She is one of the most beautiful women to hit hollywood. I really feel bad for her even though she married a hispanic or whatever he is and had two kids by him, even though she is a race traitor I hope she finds her way. Mental illness is no joke and to add street drugs to the mix it’s a recipe for true disaster.
