THE MINI ROUND UP: REV RUN & JUSTINE ADOPT / BRANDY NOT AT FAULT?
Thursday, December 27, 2007

Reverend Run and his wife Justine Simmons adopted an American-born baby girl in September, who they named Miley Justine Simmons. Miley was one month old when they brought her home and will make her debut on the family’s MTV reality series, Run’s House, in January.
Make sure to check out the Celebrity Baby Blog for exclusive snippets of Justine talking about the adoption! Congrats to them.
BRANDY NOT AT FAULT?

Brandy out at lunch earlier this year. (Splash)
According to recently released reports, Brandy may not have been at fault for the death of a woman in a car accident that took place in Los Angeles late last year.
Apparently the women hit the car in front of her first and then slammed on her brakes causing Brandy to barrel into her. They also found traces of marijuana in the women who passed.
The L.A. City Attorney has until the end of the business day on Friday to decide whether to file criminal charges against Brandy — that’s when the one-year statute of limitations runs out. Sources tell TMZ there is significant division in the City Attorney’s office, and a decision still has not been made. The problem for the City Attorney: if they file manslaughter charges, they have to prove Brandy did something negligent — and we’re told that could be difficult if not impossible. [SOURCE]

I am glad to see this trial be put to rest. Hopefully Brandy can move pass this and get herself in gear (no pun intended) for her new album. I loved her last records and I definitely love “Sweet Nothings”. Can’t wait to see what her first single will be.

I’m glad that B got the justice that she deserved… Can you believe that I read a white blog site earlier cuz that’s when i first saw that B was getting off free *hopefully* and some asshole had the nerve to say and I quote “another Black geting off in LA. No surprise…”….. Was that asshole serious? Black? Seriously?
Well, I’m BLACK and I’m sure as hell glad that B-Rocka is getting off free..

I’m so very happy for the Simmons! The baby is adorable and I’m sure they will give her all the love she truly deserves in life. This is the type of news that makes you proud of being black. We need to adopt our own babies and stop letting white folk confuse our children in these mixed race adoptions.

Congrats to the Simmons family on their new edition!!!
As for Brandy, I had a Range Rover before and I know there is no way
the car you hit could not have still been moving for it to spin out.
A rover would have put the back end to the front if the car was completely
still.
Either ‘Sweet Nothings’ or ‘Follow Me’ should be the first single from the new release.
Its time to kick ass BRANDY and reclaim your thrown as R and B princess!!!!!!

Though adopted, that beautiful baby girl looks like them.
It’s unfortunate that a woman lost her life, but it was an accident, and if Brandy was not negligent, she should not be charged.

Thank God!!! brandy has being going thru it….and for it to potentially come out as not her fault at all is really ridiculous because thats alot of depression for someone to go through for so long…..Brandy baby i will be prayin for you still so that everything comes out clean……..i know someone died but if it isnt her fault then why should she pay anymore
the simmons are great and i am truly happy for them…such a cutie that miley.

I know this will be a load off Brandy’s shoulder when this passes over. Good for her though. If she is not found criminally negligent, then the civil case doesn’t have a leg to stand on either.
Adoption is a great thing - to me it is the ultimate way of helping someone in need, to give them a family. My husband and I have been looking into adoption, and it is expensive. I commend The Simmons for what they are doing, and that baby is beautiful.

I didn’t know the Simmons family wanted a baby that bad. I mean she lost the last one and all. I guess they wanted another newborn at like 50. I hate that show and Rev. Ron is a joke to the Church.

MY baby BRANDY is getting cleared… PRAISE the lord!!! I’m sure she is going to use this to help he grow.. It’s sad that someone lost there life, but God has things worked out according to his plan. It wasn’t her fault, nor would she do something like this on purpose, that’s doesn’t even seem like her… I Agree with everyone above, everyone that has been hating on her and acting like they are the state, lawyer or judge ready to lock her up and throw away the key need to so some love, YOU AUTOMATICALLY have to buy 3 copies of her next cd, PUCKS!!! is going to be worth it anyway… I hope she is back in the studio working on her next records.. There is nothing in the music world like her… SHE IS THE BEST-

#23: There are so many children out there who need a home. Personally, I do not think it matters what race the parents are as long as the child is taken care of, loved, and treated right. All kids deserve loving parents and race shouldn’t matter.

I must admit I was really nervous for my girl Brandy. I wasn’t there so I truly don’t know what happened. I thank GOD that everything seems to be going in a positive direction for her. My condolences to the victim and my prayers to Brandy as well. I can’t wait for a new Brandy album. If you all wanna jam to some exclusive brandy ish check out 6621.com and find the “Havent You Heard?” mix tape its off the hook.
Love ya bran…. Peace
