SPOTTED: COMMON & SERENA ON THE TENNIS COURT
Friday, September 5, 2008
Isn’t love grand? Check out these cute pictures of Serena Williams and her boyfriend Common hitting up the Tennis Court on Thursday. Common helped Serena prepare for her upcoming semifinal match, by filling in as her ball boy. The superstar Tennis player advanced earlier this week after an intense match with her older sister Venus.
According to the photographer:
..No matter how many balls he had in his hand - 1, 2, 3 or more - she didn’t even so much as give him a backwards look as she was warming up. Serious intensity, that girl. But that million-dollar smile never left his face.
I love these two together! & Shout out to Travis for sending these in..

I thought he was in better shape. I love them as a couple. They seem like “real” people to me.
#3. I think you’re right, you have an eagle eye. I bet she tears him up in the bedroom.

Its great that they are still together, its been a minute since they started, black love is great! wow at some people saying the only possible reason he could be with her is her backside…smh…people should know better…looks don’t make a relationship last…besides the fact that when Serena puts herself together properly she really does look beautiful.

Would you whores stop hating on serena, and then drooling over HER MAN!! That’s right, Common is SERENA’S man so keep whishing he was yours… Y’all wouldn’t have a chance in hell, no matter how good you think you look.. I don’t thing Common is into chicks who are quick to spread their legs at the first sight of a man, and with this board it seems like it’s ANY MAN!! HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

#3 and #6 - I’m pretty sure that’s a tennis ball in his pocket. LOL
Is anyone else disappointed at Common with his shirt off? I guess my expectations were too high. he’s still fine, I just expected to see something different. That won’t kill my fantasies though.

—-> I REALLY like them together.
—-> As I have said before: Let’s see pics of YOUR significant others & see how
—-> YOU feel about someone questioning why you’re with them or vice versa.
—> Trust ME…it’s NOT a good feeling.
—> I remember one night I overheard our neighbor talking to my boyfriend.
—> She basically question why he was with me because SHE didn’t think I was cute
—-> and SHE didn’t think I was his type. He responded to her: “I dig her & that’s
—-> ALL that matters”
—-> COMMON digs her & that’s ALL that matters

we all know serena doesn’t meet our “typical” standard of what beauty is. so should she just go crawl under a rock somewhere? give me a break. this woman is working what she’s got and i ain’t mad at her. i think they make a beautiful couple.

cute couple
Serena to Common:
“That’s right go and fetch my balls boo!!!!”
LOL
31.
Take That
Friday, September 5, 2008 /
I agree w/the comment in #1, Serena looks like a man. She has her moments when she looks nice but I’m looking at her like how is he looking at her in the face and is like yeah, she’s hot. She does have a slammin body I do concede that but she’s just not a pretty girl.
With that said, I’m glad he’s w/a black girl. That makes me happy. And they look really happy together.
I’m sure she has a beautiful spirit (remember how your parents would say that about people you would say were ugly? LOL)

I wonder how well Common is in tennis (if he plays)….? I mean, I love tennis and would love to learn more from an icon like Serena so I would think he would take advantage of the situation.

Now that’s support, being my ball boy while I practice. You gotta love it. And no, I didn’t mean that the way ya’ll nasty folks will probably take it, that’s actually what he’s doing in helping her practice. That’s too cute. But Serena better win, or real tennis fans will be saying he’s a distraction.

I do think she looks like a guy facially and body wise but with that said, I know she IS in fact a woman and seems like a great person and I hope they are happy. She is one LUCKY woman. Love the fact that he loves black women so much that he picked one that wouldn’t normally be seen as beautiful by the rest of the world. I think him and Kerry Washington would’ve been cuter though.

He was at her match today and they showed his pic on TV with the caption, Serena’s boyfriend. They said he is really supportive of her. They said he’s been around to many matches. I know he was in London with her for Wimbledon. Black love is a beautiful thing! Two successful black folks!

serena is 5′9 and 135pounds which means her bmi(body mass index) is perfectly in the healthy range. real men that are packing aren’t afraid and actually enjoy a women with a little size on them.

@26
You write your sentences like its a poem and you have the nerve to scold others because once again they’re speaking their own opinion. Judging from YOUR picture, I see why you think Common and Serena are a good match.

Great article about Serena and Common.
P.S. I think it’s highly inappropriate that you allow such maligning and caustic name-calling (from your commentors) on your site.

wow, i never in my life thought i would actually see Com wit the shirt off. i’m not disappointed either…not fake and extra muscle-y, but not outta shape either. that’s a real man’s body rite there. taco meat and ALL, lol.
anyways, happy to see they still goin’ strong. i’m rootin’ for ‘em.
@ 23: i be damned if Com is anybody’s “househusband.” he been rockin’ crowds since before Serena was sportin’ them beaded braids. give that man his respect.

Tell It Like It Is
Saturday, September 6, 2008 /
I swear hardly no one wants to tell it like it is these days, so I guess I will be the one to say what no one wants to come out and say:
1. Serena looks like Wesley Snipes on steroids in a dress
2. Common looks more like a woman than Serena, taco meat chest and all!
3. In that second pic, Serena looks like she is contemplating opening up a can of whoop ass on Common if he say one more thing to her
4. Serena and Common look like a couple you’d find bunking in the same prison cell..Common is her biatch!
5. Last but not least, I was going to say that as ugly as Serena is, Common can only stand to hit that from the back, however, as manly as Serena is she prolly hitting common from the back…
that is all.

[...] Just for that I might stop calling him Lonnie and revert to Rashid. He also speaks on his new album, and tries to front like he’s not serving Serena in straight sets. [...]
