BLIND ITEM: RAPPER BEATS HIS WIFE
Monday, August 6, 2007
People often wonder why they don’t see photos of a very popular rapper’s wife. She is buried deep in the background and is hardly ever pictured with her husband.
The reason: He beats her and she’s usually covered in black and blue bruises, that’s why she’s never seen.
The rapper’s wife also has self-esteem issues because she is aware of his constant infidelity but she chooses to ignore his numerous liaisons.
The abuse seems to be escalating, there were always rumors of domestic strife but now the allegations have become more frequent.
Allegedly, he beats her over anything but she won’t leave him.
He was being interviewed on a radio station last year and when questions arose about his wife, he changed the subject and appeared uncomfortable.
Hint: He’s a very well known rapper, domestically and internationally.
NOTE: All blind items are written by Myra Panache or her staff. No, I do not know what the answer is - after all it is called a ‘Blind Item’. These items are posted for entertainment purposes. Please don’t email me asking for the answer because your email will be promptly deleted.

@ # 8, you are thinking of Beenie Man. There was a story where he and his wife held a press conference and his wife accused him of beating her and he accused his wife of cheating on him. It sounded like a straight circus.

I would say T-boz husband, I think his name is Craig Mack, at one time she was claiming abuse, and we dont ever see her as much, but he’s not a well known rapper either so its not him. No idea, but it seems crazy trying too guess who husband is beating his wife ass. It doesn’t seem right so therefore I have no more thoughts on this.

Personally, I think these blind items are soo wack! What’s the point in them if we’re nto given the answer? I hate guessing & guessing …and I’m not even given a LITTLE hint or an answer later on.. It’s like, what’s the point?! lol

I think the biggest clue is that this rapper is an INTERNATIONAL superstar…not just domestic…
When I think Internationally known rappers who are married, I think LL…MAYBE Ja Rule (at least he was like 6 years ago). It’s gotta be some CROSSOVER rapper who has fans globally…
1. It ain’t Snoop…I’ve seen Snoop’s wife more than most other rappers.
2. Dre is a behind the scenes kinda guy…he might be globally known as a producer more than a rapper.
3. Busta? Maybe. Is he married? Never seen his wife. He seem like he could be kinda hostile.
4. Ja Rule? Maybe. He was big, and I used to see his wife out with him when things were great, but since his career tanked, don’t see her much anymore. Could he be taking out his frustration on her? Dunno…just guessing.
5. Unfortunately, my final guess is LL. I love me some LL, but you hardly see his wife, and if you have seen her, you can tell she has low self-esteem. They been together FOREVER…and you KNOW his ass been around the block a few times. I hope it’s not true, but this would be my guess.
As for why make this into an entertainment item, I don’t think this is the least bit entertaining, but honestly, I wanna know, so I can never support their ass again. Put this negroid on BLAST. Punk ass. I hope somebody whoop his ass for hitting on a woman. She probably hasn’t left because he has probably got her scared to death. That is usually why women don’t leave poor MF’ers, so if you got a crazy, RICH MF’er, you know she really scared because he got resources to find her.

When I read the blind item and it said a rapper known worldwide my initial guesse’s were LL Cool J or Snoop Dogg. I personally don’t think it’s them because you see both their wives all of the time. Everytime LL is on the red carpet at a movie premiere or awards show you always see Simone. I see Snoop’s wife on t.v. and in magazines all of the time also. Fat Joe isn’t really all that famous so that rules him out. I was thinking of Ja Rule or Dr. Dre. Only because you hardly ever see their wives.

#52 - You can’t be serious! Method Man was about to whip Wendy Williams ass about outing his wife’s bout with cancer. There’s no way he’d hit his wife!
It ain’t LL because Simone goes to EVERY function on his arm!
It ain’t Snoop cuz Shante ain’t having that! You can’t beat on a female from the LBC and not get yo’ a$$ beat in return!
For that matter, Kim ain’t gon’ let Cube beat her a$$ either. Plus, she’s at EVERY premiere with him.
It ain’t Dre cuz that would have been late breaking news on my Sidekick. That’s my best friend’s cousin’s dad.
We know it ain’t T.I. cuz for 1 - he’s not married to Tiny and 2 - she’s in public with him quite a bit.
Whoever said Big Boi needs to be slapped! His wife STAYS in public with and without him.
Master P and his wife are at everyone of Romeo’s USC games together, so that’s ridiculous, too.
I wouldn’t put it past Diddy, but Kim ain’t for that bullisht!
I’d guess Fat Joe or DMX. I wanna say Ice-T but Co-Co is everywhere he’s goes - but at the same time, don’t we expect a pimp to slap and box on women. It could be Trick Daddy.

Chante` looks like she don’t play that beating stuff, and neither does DMX wife.
Ja Rule’s wife seems like a real timid chick, I can see her putting up with that type of abuse. He’s known for being unfaithful and you rarely see them together.

WYCLEF…you might be right! Wyclef is married, and he’s is a cheatin’ something or other. AND he f**ked up Lauryn’s head, so you know he on some other type of bullshit.
And Wyclef is internationally known from the Fugees, Shakira…all kinds of stuff…he might be it…
And I have NEVER seen his wife.

I think for all of you that mentioned Method Man,you’re on to something.He is very popular here in the states,has been for the last 15 years or so(since the C.R.E.A.M. days and the infamous and much loved duet w/Mary J.Blige),and HELLO,Wu-Tang is damn near WORSHIPPED over in Asia…MTV used to run footage of their cavorting there when they were on tour (something similar to Diary or Making the Video or something like that),and Method Man is the most popular of the Wu (no disrespect and R.I.P. to ODB,who was the most charismatic)–which made him widely recognizable.I have NEVER,EVER seen a pic of Tameka(which I have heard his wife’s name is),and have seen several pics of Fat Joe’s(cavorting on the beach w/him,and at her baby shower,and even hangin’ out with Trina–CHECK THE CONCRETELOOP ARCHIVES),Dre’s wife was interviewed a time or two on MTV,Wyclef’s wife Claudinette pops up everywhere,and was really in the limelight when she had a clothing line,FUSHA;and LL’s wife Simone is by his side a bit as well.And Master P’s wife Sonia was on the front cover of JET magazine with him,and we ALL know what DMX’s wife looks like!!Method Man may have “went off” on Wendy Williams,but he is totally not exempt to me from being the object of this blind item.Being possessive/(faux)protective is a known characteristic of an abusive mate.Besides,y’all seen how he clocked Taral Hicks in Belly!

And also,Mack 10 is not really that known(and no longer married to T-Boz,by the way),and Ice Cube’s wife Kim is consistently by his side.She looks like a prettier version of Karrine Steffans.(No disrespect,Kim!!)

This blind item is really a good one its so hard to figure out just for the simple fact so many well known rappers are married and when a girlfriend,fiance,or wife is bought up they either seem discrete to talk about her or somewhat irratated it was even bought about into discussion but I can’t even take I guess cause most of the names being thrown out there I have seen their wife’s quite a few times

IT AIN’T FAT JOE- TRUST
His wife goes EVERYWHERE with him, She’s with him now and their baby daughter in Detroit..LOL She don’t let that man breathe, she wears the pants in the house BIG TIME. Go on those photo agency websites and type in Lorena Cartagena or Fat Joe’s wife and all her pics come up at all kinds of events with and without him. He ain’t never touch her Pun on the other hand was CRAZY. He loved to pistol whip his wife. Rule Joe out.
My guess is JaRule or LL.

There are a couple names that come to mind!
The first rapper I thought of was Method Man. He never has had his wife in the public eye… not even on MTV cribs. You saw his kids- but not his wife. *BUT* In an interview, he was pissed off at Wendy Williams because she said over the airwaves that she was very sick (I think it was cancer or lukemia) and he was saying that he’s going to ‘take it to the streets’ because of that comment. What he just said showed some aggression- but I don’t know if its enough to beat his wife repeatedly (since she is sick).
The second one was definitely DMX. She’s an idiot!!
105.
Shag
Monday, August 6, 2007 /
It’s Snoop. He’s been in anger management classes a couple of times. Plus, he’s hanging out with that punkass Magic Don Juan, who’s still living in the 60s.

I think that it is DMX,he seems dominating and intimidating,you see his wife sometims but she never looks happy,poor girl.The other name that came to my mind was Ja Rule,he pops x and probably just takes it out on her.and yall know both of them was in that book by Karrine Steffans.

It can’t be snoop, remember snoop is coming out with a reality show with his family like “Runs House”… So I highly doubt it’s snoop. My guess would be LL….

LL would fit the bill but I just can’t see it. Not even a little. I would personally beat LL’s behind (as fine as he is) if he ever put a hand on his wife.
DMX,,,,naw, he stays to high. And his wife…..I don’t think she play that.
Ja Rule’s wife is very pretty. I’m sure she would leave. She already paid so,,,,stay for what?

I THINK PAMELA IS TALKING ABOUT BEENIE MAN, I READ ABOUT IT TOO, EITHER HE IS LEAVING HIS WIFE CHEATING OR SHE IS LEAVING HIM FOR BEATING HER THEY HAVE TWO DIFFERENT STORIES. HE WAS INTERVIEWED ABOUT IT RECENTLY AND HE WAS UPSET.

Tuesday, August 7, 2007 /
WHY WOULD IT BE METHOD MAN…CLEARLY HE STOOD UP FOR HIS WIFE WHEN WENDY WAS TALKING ABOUT HER. SECONDLY, HE IS NOT KNOWN INTERNATIONALLY.
TI SHOULD NEVER BE A OPTION BECAUSE HE NOT MARRIED AND HE ALWAYS HAVE TINY AROUND HIM . THATS A NO BRAINER DUH
MACK 10 IS NOT WITH T BOZ NO MORE SO HE IS OUT OF THE QUESTION….. AND HE IS NOT INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN PEOPLE. SMH
LL ALWAYS BE WITH HIS WIFE TWENTY FOUR SEVEN… EVERYONE KNOWS THAT HE HAVE A WIFE AND HER NAME IS SIMMON. THE BLIND ITEM STATES THAT SHE IS BURIED DEHIND PHOTOS. SHE HARDLY NEVER SEEN AND SHE HAVE SELF ESTEEM PROBLEMS. DONT SEE SIMONE HAVING SELF ESTEEM PROBLEMS.
PUFFY IS NOT MARRIED TO KIM…. SO THATS OUT
MASTER P IS OUT BECAUSE HIS WIFE AND HIM WAS ON MAGAZINE COVERS TOGATHER AND THEY ALWAYS AT ROMEO BASKETBALL FUNCTIONS.
ICE CUBE IS DEFINETELY A NO NO… I MEAN KIM IS ALWAYS WITH HIM .
I REALLY THINK ITS SNOOP… YOU REALLY DONT SEE TO MUCH OF HIS WIFE. I MEAN HE IS COMING OUT WITH A SHOW BUT THAT DONT MEAN ANYTHING. HE INTERNATIONALLY KNOWN….. AND HIS RIGHT HAND MAN IS A PIMP. SOUNDS LIKE ITS HIM TOO ME . JUST MY OPINION

ok i know this is wild but what about daddy yankee 1: he’s internationally known 2: he’s married 3:he was interviewed last year after the billboard music awards about his freaky dancing with roselyn sanchez and asked how his wife felt about it and he straight up changed the subject and looked sooooo uncomfotable 3: there was a report on the spanish chismes that he beat his wife so bad that she had to go to the hospital for treatment. the thing is theres not too may rappers that are internationally known except for snoop. dmx and ja definently not their not even that popular here anymore and havent been in a while. daddy yankees definently internatonal. but thats just my input what do you guys think?

I have seen (several times) the wives of Snoop, DMX, LL, Dr. Dre, JaRule (once or twice), Ice Cube, I can tell you that I was shocked to find out that Ludacris was even married. But she’s an attorney so he may know better, maybe not. Of course everybody has seen Coco’s ass (literally). I’ve seen Fat Joe’s once. Has anyone seen Method Man’s wife. I think I saw her once a long time ago but judging by the way he was ready to kick Wendy’s ass, I don’t think so. Oh, who knows…

It’s definitely not Big Boi. She owns a boutique here in Atlanta. So she’s seen constantly. Plus she’s out with him a lot. I can’t see Ja Rule beating on no one. His wife is bigger than him. (but, eh who knows)

Some of you people are so f-ing stupid. You peope act like you’re so much into hip hop, yet you’re naming people who aren’t even married like TI. Why it’s even more stupid to name these people, because they’re ALWAY photoed with their wife or mate (Big Boi.)
The answer is Snoop
Why: Well he has been banned from several international places, over the past year he has had A LOT of international coverage. Hence the hint was KNOWN INTERNATIONALLY.
Also, he lives by the PIMP life so he says. What are pimps known for? Beating their ho’s.
Lastly we very very seldom see his wife in photos and the few times we have she looked a mess anyway. Not beat, but a mess.

i think its a shame when a man has to beat on a woman to make himself feel good about his self and let the woman knows who runs the relationship. Women need to get some back bones and find a way out of a abusive relationship before they get killed. Men need to grow up and stop actin childish when shit don’t go their way. My advice to women gettin beat on……………. if a man hits you once and says he will never do it again, trust and believe that he will. Find a way out the relationship because your life is much more worth than you being in a relationship that can get you killed.

Snoop was my first choice and I’ll ride with that. I’ve never even seen his wife.and I don’t think Shakira Simmons (Mrs. DMX) would have done a reality show if that was going on there. Besides, X doesn’t seem like the wife beating type. He’s too sensitive. Rule out LL and all that’s left is Snoop.
