It’s been long enough hasn’t it? After 5 years, R. Kelly is finally going on trial for 21 counts of child-Pornography. Aww sh*t:

The criminal case against R. Kelly, which has been pending for five years, is finally headed to trial. At a hearing in Chicago on Wednesday (August 1), Judge Vincent Gaughan said Kelly’s trial will begin on September 17.

“As Robert [Kelly] said many times, he believes in our system of justice,” a spokesperson for the singer told MTV News. “He is looking forward to finally having his day in court. He’s confident that when all the facts come out, it will be clear he’s not guilty of any crime.”

Kelly was charged with 21 counts of child pornography in 2002 (seven of which were later dropped) for allegedly videotaping himself having sex with a girl prosecutors said was 14 years old at the time; he pleaded not guilty…

If Kelly is convicted of the charges, he faces a prison term of up to 15 years and a fine of up to $100,000. read more

This is going to be a big case…wonder where the “victim” is…

MEL B HOLDS A PRESS CONFERENCE
splashnews_lela010807a_08.jpg

Melanie is sticking to her guns and I think that engagement might have edged it more. The former Spice Girl held a press conference yesterday with her lawyer Gloria Allred, accusing Eddie of not stepping up:

Allred, who claims that Murphy “has not paid one penny of child support” for the former couple’s daughter, said she plans to ask the court to award child support and “to decide what is reasonable.”…

“Murphy was promising to do the right thing, but to date he has not done the right thing,” said Allred. “Mr. Murphy can have all the babies he chooses to have, but his responsibility needs to be to his own children. [Brown] is seeking sole physical and legal custody.”

Still, Allred said Brown would be happy to arrange for Murphy to see his daughter regularly “like millions of parents do.”

“He bought a big diamond ring for his new fianceé,” added Allred, referring to Murphy’s recent engagement to girlfriend Tracey Edmonds. “It is nice to be generous to others, but what about his own baby?” READ MORE

Wouldn’t it be messed up if he got Tracey pregnant too? This soap opera never ends…

GARY COLEMAN CITED FOR ACTING DISORDERLY

12356064alfredcusto812007103127pm.jpg

Gary Coleman was scaring people in Utah when he was spotted getting angry during an argument with a woman:

Former child star Gary Coleman was cited for disorderly conduct after witnesses said they saw him in a heated argument with a woman in a parking lot.

Coleman, 39, and the woman were in his vehicle discussing their relationship Friday night when two people saw him hit the steering wheel with his hands, Capt. Cliff Argyle said.

”Mr. Coleman was very excited and loud. … At one point he exited his vehicle, waving his arms, yelling and screaming,” Argyle said. ”Vehicles were unable to exit the parking lot because of Mr. Coleman’s actions.” READ MORE

Now yes, Gary has acted up before but dang – can’t a little brother get mad in public without causing a stir?

  1. May God forgive R. Kelly and have Mercy on his soul…..

  2. Mel B. got Gloria Allred on her team? That lady is a bulldog, she don’t play.

    Yawn @ the rest of these people.

  3. I’m proud of Mel B. for sticking up for her daughter, and as for R. Kelly’s victim she’s probably in hiding.

  4. Okay so Gary coleman got a little loud and waved his hands around and…………

    Okay I’ll give him getting out of the car and stopping parking lot traffic to have a temper tantrum is a bit much but come on is this really newsworthy? Yall know Gary can’t help it he got little man’s complex…. napolean complex that is,,,,,

    R Kelly smh ……. no words

    Get em Mel. If he could afford an engagement the least he could do is help out with the baby and come VISIT his daughter. Eddie you really slipping man. Handle ya biz.

  5. haha @ 1

    Yup he needs all the prayers he can get.

  6. And Mya hasn’t really come up with any good songs. Except for the Lock you Down but otha then that …Woopie Doo… She needs to really prove herself this time.. I loved her 1st and 2nd album have both…SO WE SHALL SEE….

  7. “What u talking about, Concreteloop?!”

  8. LMAO@7
    I dont know how a woman gets engaged to a man who doesnt even acknowledge his own child. I would think that would be a sign of things to come

  9. Finally, Its time to take R.Kelly dowwnnnnnnnn!
    I hope his trial is televised.

  10. Robert about damn time. Mel B good 4 her Eddie ass should be ashame of himself. *SMDH* Tracey should be careful

  11. KSH

    “If” what Mel B said is true Eddie should be ashamed. But Mel B ought to be ashamed – How da hell you gonna “plan” to have a baby with a man you have been dating for 3 to 6 months…Gurl you better use your skully cause that is some DUMB ASS shit!

    YOU WERE THE JUMP OFF…This was Fresh out of a divorce with 4 or 5 kids already…Come on Scary you gonna make me call you Dummy Spice!

  12. Mel B looks mad as hell…hahaha..she is asking for child support AND full custody?
    Does she even need to go to court for that…this is a done deal for her!

  13. KSH

    And Gloria Allred ain’t shit but an opportunist and a camera hog. And she is crazy as hell! She can’t even smile with all that Joan Rivers botox!

  14. good, now he getin a trial n i hope they dont treat it lightly cuz that shit is serious…..

  15. .. Another gold digger guys. Really sad for the lovely baby but… Eddie should take custody and give Mel nothing. A pity women seem to have evolved to be gold diggers. I suppose this event reminds us why our dna is 98% similar to an orangutan. Of course Smell B doesn’t look to far from that beast herself. She is one of those ‘girl power’ women that have led to an explosion in the divorce rate in the UK and northern Europe along with big US cities. Girl power has been tried in all primates including man and it doesn’t work. Firstly it results in non sustainable demographics (i.e. too few kids) and secondly the women resort to harem mentality chasing alpha males like Eddie which promotes anti-democratic tendencies. Chimps sure ain’t democratic folks!

  16. A wise man once told me:

    You never give a jumpoff your seed. Men that don’t protect their seed reap the consequences.

  17. I’M SICK OF THIS SHIT-WHAT I KNOW IS EITHER YOU HAVE COMMON SENSE OR YOU DON”T

    SOME PEOPLE DEFEND BULLSHIT ALL DAY-JUST FOR THE SAKE OF TURNING THEIR HEADS ON REAL ISSUES

    R-KELLY AND EDDIE MURPHY REPRESENT WHAT’S WRONG WITH OUR SOCIETY RIGHT NOW-TOO MANY DAMN PEOPLE MAKING EXCUSES FOR MEN WHO REFUSE TO ACCEPT RESPONSIBILITIES FOR THEIR ACTIONS

    I AGREE WITH THE POSTER WHO SAID-#3-MEL B IS DOING WHAT SHE IS SUPPOSE TO- STICKING UP FOR HER CHILD

    I AINT GONNA GO HARD ON THIS POST TODAY BECAUSE THERE IS NO SENSE IN DOING SO-EITHER YOU ARE FOR THE BULLSHIT OR AGAINST IT

    NUFF SAID

  18. AND FOR ALL THE GOLD DIGGER COMMENTS-IF THAT IS ALL SHE WANTED SHE WOULD JUST GO TO COURT-THAT’S AUTOMATIC

    IT SEEMS TO ME THAT MEL B IS HURT THAT EDDIE ISN’T TRYING TO BE INVOLVED IN THE CHILD’S LIFE

    AND EVERY DAY SHE WAKES UP AND TAKES CARE OF HER CHILD SHE IS ACCEPTING 100% RESPONSIBLITY FOR SLEEPING WITH EDDIE W/O A CONDOM-WHERE’S EDDIE’S SHARE IN THE RESPONSIBILITY?

    COMMON SENSE PEOPLE-ANYTHING ELSE IS PURE IGNORANCE-THE WOMAN DON’T WANT EDDIE -SHE WANTS HIM TO DO RIGHT BY HER CHILD LIKE ANY OTHER WOMAN WOULD WANT-EVEN IF SHE WAS JUST SEX TO HIM-THEY BOTH CREATED THAT CHILD NOT JUST HER ALONE-DUH!

  19. Whatever happens, Eddie should minimize pain and hurt for his baby. That baby is his own flesh and blood and her should take it into his fold. However. very sad and unfortunate for a great man like Eddie who the mother is. I just can’t understand his taste. Anyway one man’s meat as they say.. Best thing to do is make sure the baby is taken care on a par with all his other progeny. But, under no circumstances reward this blatant gold digging from the woman. That is not the right example to set for our local feminists. Better yet, take full custody of the child, give Mel nothing but visitation rights.

  20. Knutman– because heaven FORBID that women grasp the concept of “girl power” and have confidence in themselves and not put up with bullshit from men.

    Frankly, if it all went down how Mel B said Eddie Murphy is a damn dog and no court in hell would award him any shred of custody, and the fact that Eddie is being such a lying coward about the whole thing leads me to believe that if ANYONE’s right it’s Mel. Eddie won’t pay child support and won’t even so much as acknowledge the child is his even after the courts and DNA tests slapped him upside the head with “YOU DA BABY DADDY! HANDLE YOURS!”

    And for the people saying Mel’s the dumb one for planning a pregnancy before marriage…well, if they were in a mutual commitment with each other who are we to judge how they wanted to handle their lives? People do things differently nowadays and it’s quite the common practice. Marriage nowadays is nothing but a shody political institution that has no real baring on how the couple feels about each other and doesn’t state love as a requirement. Marriage only validates one’s relationship legally, and many hippy couples nowadays feel like they don’t need that validation. Some of you may say that’s godless or whatever (and I don’t know how I feel about it), but it is what it is. Doesn’t change the fact that Eddie Murphy is a cad who probably would have done the same thing HAD they been married–just ask his ex!

  21. bravo to mel b for puttin eddie on blast … too many brothas are doin this shit like its the thing to do … movin on a leaving yet another brown child to be raised without a daddy … whats really goin on … WE GOT TO DO BETTER!

  22. If anyone’s doing anything right it’s Mel B sticking to her guns and FORCING Eddie to act like a man. Eddie ain’t done a damn thing responsibly in this whole mess. Why you think he should have custody is beyond me.

    And besides, Mel B is a Spice Girl and still pretty famous in the UK. And she’s about to be paid 20 Million for the Spice Girls tour and I’m sure with that tour is going to come another Spice Girls album from which she’ll get even MORE money. On top of that she has plenty of personal projects. In short, Mel doesn’t NEED Eddie’s money.

  23. Say what ya will but been there done that and seen that. Mel B is ALL WRONG. Anytime someone takes it to the media like this especially this fast there are secondary gain issues. She is just mad cause eddie didn’t want her A#$ if he had all of this ish in his life that she wasn’t willing to compromise then it should have come to no surprise to her that they didn’t work out. THIS IS THE FIRST LIE!
    Next, there ain’t NO AMOUNT OF MONEY worth your DIGNITY and INTEGRITY. Two things Mel B obviously doesn’t have. This isn’t something that should be in the news. Eddie, like him or hate him, has proven to be much more dignified than Mel B. Notice his track record his Xwife was gabbin in essence just like melB. And at the time even she said Eddie was a private person that wasn’t into the LA hype scene. Mel B isn’t fit, thats obvious, a real sistah would take to task without all of the drama and do what was necesary. Reference Diana Ross with Arie Ness and Berry Gordy; Sheree Zampino and Will Smith. Tracey Edmonds and BabyFace; That Black Stewardess and the Prince of Monaco. The list goes on and on, You didn’t hear a bunch of mess like this WE NEED TO DO BETTER!!!!

  24. It is about time Robert Kelly is going to court. He needs to pay the price for his actions.

    As far as Mel B…I believe she is a woman scorn, get your child support, and move on. He is not the first deadbeat dad, and he want be the last. Plenty of women raise their kids wihtout the help of a father. As long as he pays child support, She should care less what he does.

    Gary Coleman is just scary!

  25. #15 KNUTMAN, your name speaks for itself. WTF

  26. another thing. please dont speak on the law of which you know nothing about. Precedance has already been set in that eddie has either joint custody or visitation with his 5 other children. So you sound stupid to say he couldn’t get custody if he wanted it. He would have to be proven unfit in a court of law which is VERY DIFFICULT to do. MelB didn’t start yellin this he’s got skeletons until AFTER she whined about being unknowingly dumped for a good 6 months. Stop clouding the obvious with your own personal jacked up experiences, Black women some of us sound so bitter and unobjective. No wonder so many of us are by ourselves!

  27. Love that hair color #6….it is on fire!

  28. I feel the same about R. Kelly @ Bill. I hope justice is done, finally.

    LOL @ the way they describe what Gary was doing. I can imagine him waving his hands in the air and shouting, lol.

    Mel B likes being the spotlight eh. Couldn’t she just do this like all other people do, she actually held a press conference, that’s not nice. However, Eddie should take responsibility for his child too.

    I’m looking forward to the Mya interview. I like the little Sade.

  29. WTF is Arnold doing in UTAH anyway, that black folks jumping out of cars blocking traffic shyt ain’t working in UTAH they will have you in prison with some Different Strokes for your ass in UTAH homie.

    Robert, there’s a huge guy named BUCK NASTY waiting to piss on your pedophile ass in D-BLOCK homes, good luck with that SMDH.

    Mellie Mel B, get Shorty Daddy Day Care fo Real

  30. Ok, R may be trying to ” get into a closet, for real, if he goes to jail. Regardless of how old that ” woman” was at the time, that was just nasty!!!!

    Eddie needs to take care of his baby, however, Mel B. should handle this as a family issue and quit putting all their business in the street!!1

  31. Eddie is an over 40 year old man with unquestionable experience with women. In all this dirty laundry in public washing, we have not heard Eddie’s side. Mel says he instructed her to remove the diaphragm so they could conceive. This less than 6 months after dating.. A man with 5 children (all of which he has taken care of admirably). Sounds very fishy in the least. He is not a teenager to make a mistake and make a woman pregnant. Anyway whether or not they planned the kid, omething more than likely ‘really’ irked him about Mel. Perhaps she was boozing and sleeping around. Perhaps she decided to control da man! You know. Start giving him instructions despite her tender age. Perhaps she hid her true self in order to date the superstar. If I have to guess, I would say Mel is at fault somehow. Eddie would not just intentionally get her pregnant and then abandon ship. He’s too street smart for that.

  32. 1. Kells, u knew that girl was too young to get pissed on.
    2. Mel, get his ass for every penny you can. Hell, he can afford it. Sh!t, you don’t work. “IF” he told u he wanted to have a baby with you (i wasn’t there) then he needs to help u take care of it. Mothers do enough as it is. I love u Eddie, but u are a man- whore for having 6 1/2 kids and jumping from woman to woman and having unprotected sex with them.
    3. Gary Coleman, ….speechless

  33. Andrice:

    “Eddie, like him or hate him, has proven to be much more dignified than Mel B.”

    Are you serious?? EDDIE was the one BLABBIN to talk shows in Europe talking about the baby wasn’t his before even telling Mel B the relationship is over. He can’t be mad NOW that the shit hit the fan when he’s the one who got the ball rolling. No, he expected to sit back and take it like some docile woman. Ha! Not Scary Spice!

    “another thing. please dont speak on the law of which you know nothing about. Precedance has already been set in that eddie has either joint custody or visitation with his 5 other children. So you sound stupid to say he couldn’t get custody if he wanted it.”

    Ummm…yeah, so Eddie Murphy won’t acknowledge that the child is his own, and so far WON’T pay child support. I highly doubt any court would award him FULL custody under those circumstances, which is what I was originally referring to when I responded to Knutman. Eddie Murphy doesn’t establish precedence with his other kids because 1) they don’t dictate how his relationship worked with Mel and the baby he had with her and, 2) It’s obviously a different situation because Eddie acknowledges his other kids and so far has refused to even SEE his baby with Mel B.

    Yeah, I really don’t see a custody hearing working in his favor, especially considering that Mel B is already a very fit parent who’s just as financially capable as he is. VISITATION is one thing; unless he was abusive it would be very hard to revoke his visitation privileges But custody? That one goes to the parent who has the child’s best interest in mind and, sorry, but that ain’t Eddie boo-boo.

  34. #26 you sound so stupid, the fact that he hasn’t seen or done anything for the child since birth is unfit enough.

  35. Knutman:
    “Eddie would not just intentionally get her pregnant and then abandon ship. He’s too street smart for that.”

    He was also caught driving with a tranny prostitute in his car. Yep, he reallll street smart…

  36. R. Kelly….It’s about time….

    Gary Coleman looks a mess in this picture…

  37. YAWN @ the R kelly trial that is so 5 years ago…
    Eddie know damn well he betta pay up i can’t stand DEADBEAT dads!! URGH!
    Poor Gary Coleman he is a hot ass mess…smh

  38. Wow! A lot of ruffled feathers! Read case law and understand its ramifications! The law is what it is. Like it or not. Last I checked all of my children were in my home with both myself and my gainfully heterosexual husband! So I don’t have reason to become irate with this issue. Good luck to the kid cause her momma’s got issues. And did you call me boo boo? are you a man? Not a good look :(

  39. Damn Eddie just take care of ya child man and end this madness cuz from the looks of it, Mel B. is not going to stop until you handle your business!

    Robert you need help bruh! I guess he thought he could just piss on lil girls and go bout his business! What a perverted idiot!

    Gary, calm ya lil ass down!

  40. @KNUTMAN

    YOU SOUND VERY DIGNIFIED-YOUR OBVIOUS DISBELIEF THAT A MAN LIKE EDDIE WOULD DO THIS-BUT THE FACT OF THE MATTER MEN DO IT EVERY DAY AND IT’S BECOME AN EPIDEMIC TO THE POINT MANY WOMEN EXPECT TO RAISE CHILDREN ON THEIR OWN AND SOME ARE EVEN BYPASSING MEN ALTOGETHER AND HAVING ARTIFICIAL INSEMINATION-WHY? BECAUSE WOMEN ARE GROOMED, EXPECTED, & BELIEVE 9 TIMES OUT OF 10 IF YOUR NOT A SINGLE-MOTHER WHEN YOU CONCIEVE THE LIKELIHOOD THAT YOU WILL BECOME ONE IS FAIRLY HIGH

    ESPECIALLY FOR BLACK WOMEN-IN THE WORKPLACE BLACK WOMEN ARE ASKED ALL SORTS OF DUMB QUESTIONS REGARDING THEIR MARITAL STATUS-MOSTLY WE ARE ASSUMED TO BE UNMARRIED, THEY ASK ABOUT OUR CHILDREN’S INVOLVEMENT WITH THEIR DAD’S-IF THEY ARE ACTIVELY INVOLVED THEY SEEM SURPRISED-THIS IS NO SURPRISE JUST ANOTHER STIGMA ATTACHED TO BLACK MEN & WOMEN-WE ARE OVERSEXED AND IRRESPONSIBLE -THERE IS A LOT TO SAY FOR BOTH PARTIES INVOLVED IN THIS SITUATION IT’S VERY UNFORTUNATE THAT MEL B & EDDIE COULD NOT RESOLVE THEIR ISSUES SORROUNDING THEIR CHILD W/O THE MEDIA

    BUT ACCORDING TO THE ESSENCE ARTICLE EDDIE REFUSES HER CALLS AND DOESN’T RETURN ANY OF THEM-MY “GUESS” IS MEL B SEES THE MEDIA AS HER ONLY ALTERNATIVE-IN NO WAY DO I AGREE WITH THE METHOD BUT I UNDERSTAND WHY SHE IS DOING ALL OF THIS

    I BE DAMN IF A MAN IS GOING TO LAY UP WITH ME AND WALK AWAY LEAVING BEHIND WET SHEETS AND A BABY AND THINK IT’S ALL GOOD YOUR ON YOUR OWN-NOTHING IN LIFE IS FREE AND EVERYTHING HAS A COST

    I’M NOT IN THE SITUATION-I’M MARRIED BUT I COULD IMAGINE HOW I WOULD FEEL IF I WERE IN HER SHOES-I WOULD PROBABLY USE OTHER METHODS SUCH AS GET MY PEOPLE TO STOMP A MUT HOLE IN HIS ASS BUT TO EACH THEIR OWN-

    MEL-B AINT NO VICTIM AND I DOUBT SHE IS LOOKING FOR SYMPATHY BUT IT LOOKS TO ME THAT THIS NIGGA PICKED THE WRONG CHICK TO FUCK, DUMP, & LEAVE WITH A BABY

    LET THAT BE A LESSON-THE NEXT TIME YOUR HUMPIN YOUR JUMP OFF W/O A CONDOM -

  41. As for as the tranny issue was Eddie caught pants down? literally? Eddie is a comedian with a sense of humour in largesse. I’d bet the whole tranny thing was very amusing to him. I.e. just joking around and laughing at the tranny but I would be massively suprised if Eddie has a fetish for trannys. Anyway we all make mistakes. Getting caught in the media spotlight with a tranny was not the brightest thing to do. Both Mel and da man have made a mistake clearly. The DNA results are out. Eddie is da daddy. Nowhere to run. Nowhere to hide. He’s gotta make a public statement accepting paternity and offering his unconditional love and support for the lovely critter. As far as Mel, Eddie’s gotta minimize losses financially and emotionally. Focus on the delightful new mate he has on his arm and his progeny.

  42. #39
    “and did you call me boo boo? are you a man? Not a good look ”

    Actually I kinda like the look. And what?

    And it seems like you might want to read those case laws you’re flaunting without pointing out actual facts. Eddie Murphy may be one hell of a father to his other kids, but that isn’t going to change anything if he’s so far been a deadbeat in regards to his child with Mel B.

  43. I guess Eddie don’t have issues, not wanting to see his child. Your husband is probably on the down low just like Eddie that’ why you are taking his hide. You are one of those women in denial. I will pray for you and your kids. #39

  44. ABOUT F*CKING TIME R.KELLY IS GOING TO F*CKING COURT. WTF TOOK THEM SO DAMN LONG? If his ass doesn’t get convicted Ima be pissed. Child molestors are seriously sick in the head and just because he’s a R&B singer doesn’t mean he’s any different. Convicted or not he’s still going straight to hell.

    LOL at Gary Coleman. He does have a temper. Probably because he’s angry that he’s 2 feet tall.

    That’s a shame with Eddie and Mel B. See, this is what I don’t understand with our own brothers and sisters. The father always wants to leave after his girl has gotten pregnant. Just keep your sh*t rapped up and Mel should’ve made sure or used the pills. Eddie doesn’t want her or the baby, but he’s gotta man up because he was irresponsible.

  45. Knutman:

    “The DNA results are out. Eddie is da daddy. Nowhere to run. Nowhere to hide. He’s gotta make a public statement accepting paternity and offering his unconditional love and support for the lovely critter.”

    Exactly, I agree, and that’s all that Mel B wants. Like she said in that last magazine interview she did, she doesn’t want Eddie anymore. As she put it he had too many “lifestyle issues” that, in hindsight, probably would have needed to be worked out. And she’s in a new relationship herself. She’s not trying to scorn Eddie for personal reasons, but as she said, she IS going to make Eddie ackowledge his child and she’s going to make sure her daughter has her father in her life…even if it’s only financially and court-ordered.

  46. Tracy Edmonds dumb ass made a statement something to the fact “If he’s the father he will be responsible” has he been? She needs to sit her opportunist ass down.

  47. Mel B is getting sweet revenge . She’s making everything very public ,just the way Eddie did. I hope he get it together and be there for the baby .

  48. FINALLY a trial for that man..If it was a regular man he would already have been tried and in JAIL..however with the trail im sure he’ll be walking
    EDDIE give MEL B her $$$$$…lol..sad but Eddie needs to pay up thats his baby no matter what the case is

  49. Wow again. Julie is a dime. I am not sure how you have the right to question my husbands sexuality? My point is this. However this pans out it won’t directly affect me. Further, there is no reason for one to get so upset about another individuals sutuation, especially when it involves a degree of irresponsibility on their part. Personal attacks are beyond childish. All any of us can do is make more responsible choices in our everyday lives and use these topics as a reminder of the painful consequences of certain behaviors. Nothing is promised, but at the end of the day none of our opinions matter. In another 6 hours and certainly 6 months I will be about the business of me and mine and Mel B will have to raise her children in this predicament (sp?) Unfortunately this is a common occurence in our community far more common than that of a 2 parent home (regardless of skeletons, HA HA). Thats the bigger picture, for me at least…Blog on

  50. I don’t care about Mr. Kelly. I lost respect for him long ago…

    Eddie Murphy has also lost my respect. I can’t stand a man who doesn’t step up and take care of his children. He is so busy courting Tracey that he has completely neglected the fact that he has a new child to take care of. Note to Eddie: you don’t have to like or respect the mother in order to love and take care of the child…

    Gary Colemen is pitiful! I crack up every time I see his little commercials about borrowing money…

  51. 51. nobody is getting upset, this is a blog everyone has a right to state their opinion, sometimes you just have to wonder why some people are so onesided. Usually it’s because they are on a high horse and think that they are better than others and they and their spouses are saints. You stated that Mel b has issues, I don’t remember (maybe I’m mistaken) you pointing out Eddie’s fault in this. The most important issue here is the child,everything else is unimportant and it just seems to me (in my opinion) that she is the only one who sees and is actng on that point.

  52. @julieisadime

    alright now!

    great points-i think you pin the tail on the donkey with the last one

    if your not a single-mother today,you could be one tomorrow be careful what you say

    a man can pick up and move on at any time and you could be in mel shoes-don’t be so quick to judge

  53. SEND R.KELLY TO JAIL ALREADY. 2002 to 2007? What kind of is that??

    Everyone wants to stay on Michael Jackson, even when theres absolutely no evidence, yet they have R.Kelly’s own camcorder with him taped with a minor and nothing happens?

    B.S.

  54. Julieisadime. I am not onesided. Rarely is there one side that is completely right. Not sure where you’re coming from, I am far from a saint. And frankly my spouse has nothing to do with this.
    It is from experience, as I stated been there done that previously, being a child, a single parent with a dead beat and lastly a wife and mother that I have come to this reasoning.
    All decisions have consequences. I just really hope for us Black women we start/continue to make better ones. Frankly, money doesn’t take the place of growing up without a parent. And money doesn’t heal a broken heart. I’m outta here

  55. I agree totally^^^^^. but you were the one who brought your husband into this.

    Bailey! I think you and I are on the same page. God Bless!

  56. #42 Re: BAILEY

    I hear you sister. I don’t know what to say in reply. I have a mother and father who devoted large amounts of time and resources to my upbringing so for me personally, I would be wracked with guilt to abandon my own flesh and blood.

    Anyway, truth be told, the story is not fully out so one can not really come to a complete conclusion yet on who was at fault in the relationship. But lots of issues in this one. Mel is a modern day feminist. In human and primate history males have always dominated and run the show. This partly explains why we had so many wars etc. But then again, men fight over women so women contribute to the conflict. Women gravitate towards alpha males. It is natural. Only problem is it makes the non alpha males horny as hell and bitter as f*ck. Feminists for all their talk of equality want to right to do what they want which is to chase alpha males like Eddie. Women can not resist it. But there is a cost and Mel will pay it.. Men are also struggling. Sex is the ultimate reward for any mammal on earth. That is what we are programmed for. Of course thanks to a highly evolved brain, we can resist this ancient and all too often overwhelming force to spill our seed carelessly. But this force has and will prove time and time again too great for any man. You show me a man who has never cheated or at least been very tempted. And we brothers have more of a libido than our white or yellow cousins which makes matters worse. I’m not making excuses. If a baby is born, the father has to support the rearing of the child and give massive love.

    But we men are weak things ultimately… and that will always be the case. Perhaps the solution is to legalize the harem and polygamy so all these cheating men can bring in the mothers of their illigitemate babies into the family.

  57. ^^^^^^ WHAT?^^^^^^ coo coo for cocoa puffs!

  58. Too bad R. goin down. I love his music and all but sh*t hits the fan sooner or later cause damn I totally forgot about this trial. He bout need to go down for tapin the sh*t anyways, I mean how dumb could you be. Not sayin he wasn’t wrong in the first place but everything happens for a reason and thats bout why he needed to get caught. And yeah Tianna where is this “victim”?
