R&B singer Keyshia Cole has confirmed her engagement to basketball star Daniel ‘Boobie’ Gibson this week. The duo are also expecting their first child (a son) later this year.
Cole, 28, and the Cleveland Cavaliers player, 23, became engaged on New Year’s Eve.
Her spokesperson has confirmed the baby news after weeks of speculation, adding the proposal was “an absolute surprise”.
“When he asked her to marry him, she was flabbergasted. He presented her with the ring and her mouth dropped in amazement. It’s too beautiful for words.” [SOURCE]
Cole and Gibson have been dating for less than a year.
J-BOOG RELEASES STATEMENT
Singer Jarell “Boog” Houston (formerly J-Boog of B2K) released a statement on Wednesday, (January 6th) to clear up his recent arrest.
The 24 year-old says he wasn’t arrested on domestic violence charges but for traffic violations and wanted to thank his fans for the support. Read below:
“I wanted to reach out to my fans right away to clear up the allegations circulating the web. I did not get charged with any form of domestic violence against the mother of my children. I love and respect all of the women in my life and would never harm any of them. Domestic violence is a very serious matter and one that should be treated that way, however this was not a case of domestic abuse. I was taken into custody due to outstanding traffic violations. I took care of the situation, no charges were filed, and I was released Tuesday evening. Thank you to my fans who stood by me regardless of any circulating rumors. I am looking forward to a great year in 2010 for Fizz & Boog and hope that you will continue to support. Thank you.” -Jarell “Boog” Houston
Lord, he’s only 23? He’s going to cheat on her left, right and sideways.
Good luck with that, Keyshia.
why is he referring to himself by name? “i look forward to a great year in 2010 for Fizz & Boog”. sounds like damage control by the pr team.
lol, keyshia’s people werent saying anything at first about the pregnancy. now that she is engaged they’re quick to release a statement.
gotta love it!
Congrats to Keyshia!!!! J-boog Who really cares
Congrats K.Cole! I wish them the best of luck.
I’m telling you all of the B2K boys need to get back 2gether. Hell Dru Hill is doing it. There is no real competition for boy bands. Day 26 is breaking up. That’s the only way any of these dudes are gonna make money. Omarion singing bout hoodies and getting dropped from young money is not a good look. They need to do a reunion tour or something.
@ BOOO I hope he doesn’t but he is a NBA player and he is young as hell. I got a feeling that K. Cole knows how to handle her man tho. Good look to the couple.
@Boooo, men that’s older cheat on their women left and right. it’s not about age, it’s about the person. i’m just saying.
Keisha disappeared for awhile!! Thought she was mad at Frankie and Neffe..LOL
Go Keyshia!!!!!
Dear Boogie Woogie,
How the f can u be arrested in your house from traffic violations??? U are lame.
P.S. BOOOOO!!!!!
I hope Keyshia is happy and I truly wish her the best.
ain’t nobody checking for boog and fizz hell even omarion they just need to put their differences aside and do a reunion tour.
Congrats to Keyshia and Boobie
Thats some bull right there Boog. All kinda cover ups. I never heard of some getting arrested at their home for traffic violation. They must have been some serious outstanding tickets. People are getting killed and murdered everyday, do you really think the po po have the time to come to your house to arrest you for tickets….chile, something aint right.
Wow. Arrested at home for traffic violations. Nigga must have been parked on TOP of a handicap person in the handicap park space with the engine running.
I’m happy for Keyshia that dude want her to be more than his baby momma but DANG 23?? he mad young I thought they was at least the same age.Wow she needs to think about it but then again she should of thought about getting knocked up by him too cuz despite marriage or no marriage he’s connected to him for life through that child she’s having. Well I dont think he’s mature but she’s with him for some REASON so only time will tell. Because if things dont go well with them im sure Keyshia will have an album about it…
congrats to keyshia and daniel.
j-boog has fans?
Can you say PRE-NUP!! But seriously, I wish them the best!! Marriage is hard, real hard. And by them being so young, are they really ready to spend the rest of their lives together? I just hope that when they say “For better and for worse” they truly mean it because storms will come, or as I like to say “Tests”, that will try and tear them apart. Trust me!
J-Boog…who is he again?
So happy for Keyshia!!!!!! How do people know how he is going to treat her? I mean really…..LOL!!!!
@Cottonball, you bet not ever have a sista laughing that loud at work again! LOLOLOL, but for real did he bust a Madea or something, and refused to stop while driving, I know LA is the land of the high speed chase, it just don’t add up my brotha, and talking in 3rd person went out with The Rock!
Still a bit disappointed that Keyshia’s pregnant but wow .. I did not know Daniel was 23.
J Boog: Lool traffic violations?
……. well kesh got what she always wanted a good man and
baby…… as long as she cut raggety ass neffe and frankie off
No one cares for JBoogie or whatever his name is. He is washed up and the only one from B2k people may be checking for is Omarion and he is irrelevant and struggling.
That basketball player that knocked Keyshia up looks older than 23. It will not last long and Keyshia needs to get off her high horse because she is just as ghetto as her mother and sister, getting knocked up to keep a man and out of wedlock. I guess BET has a new season to look forward to.
Keyshia always came off as a butch lesbian to me and will drive her man away with her abrasive manly self.
Congrats to Keyshia and Boobie. I’m glad Keyshis is getting her life together, and I know her next album will be bomb. Hopefully better than “A Different Me”, cause that was not her at all.
Is J.Boog even famous enough to release a statement? I don’t think anyone was really checking for him to clear up anything lol.
so this is how ghetto girls are from the ghetto…f*ck first…lock him in…baby next…hoping for a wedding ring.
dam no wonder why we have so many pregnant girls.
something in that boys 23 year old young ass eye Boobie…..seems a little shady! So I wish Keisha all the luck with that…and if it doesnt work out. she will have a bomb ass CD like her first one!
Keisha, pray about that.
@1 you aint never lied
Keyisha seems like the type of girl who always has to have a man and will take whatever she can get. For her and her child’s sake I hope it works. I personally think her career has peeked as high as it was going to so hooking up with Boobie and having a baby by him all under a year don’t surprise me at all, you remember how she was when she first came out (just like Frankie and Neffe minus the kids).
None the less her life not mine Good luck.
Seems like things moved quite fast for them, so I hope it works out. However, as others have said, he is 23 and a pro baller so…..**fingers crossed** KC’s been thru enuff already
J Bug (oh watever) lolz @ Cottonball…wat lil money they had leftover from their lil group is going to be spent on lawyers and damage control. >>>>>NEXT
LMAO @ J Boog.. nah, im not even gonna clown him.. b/c he was my favorite back in the day..
Congrats to Keyshia and her fiance’
congrats keyshia
i was never checking how old he was until #1 said hes 23 that is pretty young but hopefully hes ready for marriage
jboog you have no fans so there was no need for a statement
D-nice & Zion I could not agree more!!!!

Boobie only makes $4 mil a year. I say only because after the cars, jewelry, and other bullshit he wastes money on, his pockets probably look like mine. And yes, I am jealous. I’ve had a crush on Keyshia since middle school. Fuck it, I’m out of here.
Like we didn’t know Keyshia was preggers, but congrats to her. To hell wit’ J-Boog he a loser.
lol @ 16
Why he gotta lie tho? I mean really..we may have forgotten who HE is but we aint forget how the LAW works. If that was the case..does he know how many 2 o clock doork knocks there would be in the hood if parking or other traffic violations were THAT serious. Shit..I got my Ford Focus parked in somebody elses driveway and their shits is parked behind Krispy Kreme! gotta get in where you fit in..lol
Congrats again to Ms. Coles I wish her the best. Her man is fione!
As for J-Boog…um what fans? Two more letters and its booger hahaha thought that was funny.
That’s Okay! Mary J. is here anyway, and I must say her album is slammin’. I just can’t stop singing that “Wait until tonight…” song! Overall Mary’s CD is the bomb! No Doubt! I love Mizz Mary J. Blige, and I’ll be keeping her CD in my boomin’ system for a couple months!
DAMN KEYSHIA GETS NO LOVE UP IN HERE. WELL I’M HAPPY FOR YOU KEYSH. I WISH YOU AND YOUR MAN THE BEST. IT’S NICE TO HAVE A FAMILY. I’M SURE THAT’S ALL YOU EVER WANTED AFTER GROWING UP IN SO MUCH DRAMA. IT’S YOUR LIFE GIRL. GO BE HAPPY.
in case i forgot, keyshia is 28, which means she’s grown its not like she’s a pregnant 14 year old.
@ Brandi
Exactly! The chick is almost 30 and people are mad she is having a baby? Wtf? She is about to get married and these idiots are already saying it won’t last. Wow. Crabs in a f*cking barrel. Smh.
Good for you Keyshia! If you like it I love it!
Yes they need a B2K reunion. Separately these guys are not hot.
Some people just can’t win for loosing. Ya’ll are so jugde mental but let it had been the oppisite way around that her man was 28 and she 23. Seriously people grow up. And for the comment that he ain’t mature enough. He was mature enough to make a decision to put a ring on her figure cause he don’t want his child to grow up and be called a fatherless child. Even men older then him can’t even do that now days. But hi, ain’t no need for me to agree with people who don’t look at the big picture. To the newly engaged couple, Congrats!
Daniel Gibson, is Keyshia`s baby`s daddy, that is surprising and unexpected ! he is so low-key and laidback ! but he seems like a good guy. I hope that it works out for them !
I am so happy for K. Cole and D.Gibson.
I love them she deserves all the happiness in the world.
Their baby is going to be so cute!!!
Is anyone surprised. Glad it’s her first child out of wed lock, but keisha is a ghetto ass sell out period.
HMMM I WONDER HOW LALA FEELS SEEING THIS. SHE’S BEEN WAITING FOR HER NBA PLAYER TO MARRY HER FOR YEARS AND YEARS AND STILL NO WEDDING DATE.
$$$$$$”The duo are also expecting their first child (a son) later this year.” March is $$$$$$ is not later this year….. Congrates to KC and Boobie!!!!!!
Men cheat. Women cheat. Regardless of age. Im the same age as Keyshia and my hubby is the same age as Boobie. We started off with a baby before marriage, We got married when our lil boy was 3 months old. He may be a mature 23 year old like my hubby. We have been married for almost 3 years and have 2 lil ones (boy and girl)so things are good. Trust, respect, COMMUNICARION and following the vows plays a major role in marriage. Although we have our quarrels, but what marriage is perfect? Although, cheating is one thing I would not put up with. We learn to get over our quarrels and keep it moving with happiness
Comment 21:
Wow
i know that Tiger Woods must be mad as hell , because deep down he has always been jealous of pro black basketball and football players, and he said in interviews that he dosen`t understand why all the pretty women go for them and not golfers , so he tried to geek himself up and put on a beanie ,lift weights and mean mug and try to imitate and jack the swag of black ballerz , but the only kind of chicks he could pull was white trash ,and they only slept with him because of his money

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
thank you! there is no age on cheating. It’s all about the person. tiger woods is at the age most would think is a good age for a man to settle down and get married – but look at all he is doing.
Good luck to Keyshia, hope it works out for her.
As for J-Boog.. does anybody care? Anybody? Thought so.
@RealTalk where you hear that from..hmmm i guess so
Congrats to Keysh and Boobie reppin that TX lol i didnt know she was in her late 20′s she looks great and I kno she’ll be a good mother and hopefully will be all the man she needs and they will be truly blessed and happy
JBOOG who???
funny how this shit keeps happening (J-Boog, Pleasure P, etc.) yet the first thing they wanna claim is that it’s not true. seriously? come on now. somebody is lying here. and it’s not like they have THAT much money that somebody wants to take them for.
I was surprised to see Keyshia pregnant.And as far as Daniel being 23,hes grown.Shes grown!Things will work itself out if its ment to be….And I wish them two the best.
Yes he is young but I know 35 & 45 year old men out here cheating on their wives. Give the guy a chance. At least he is trying to be there for his family.
@ 50—RIGHT! I read that too like WTF??
How does she rep an entire race? Furthermore, I see too many whites, etc on Maury trying to find their baby’s daddy out of the haystack of possibles as well as Jerry Springer and now his body guard’s show announcing their engagements to their cousins….soooo….GTFOH
^ right, and they must have forgotten that white celebs have babies without being married. some people complain that not enough people with babies get married, now that they’re getting married they’re still complaining. if she were 23 and he were 28, no one would have a thing to say. he’s old enough to have sex, he’s old enough to take care of a child. i’m pretty sure he knew what he was doing.
woow!! such miserable ppl in this world. CONGRATULATIONS KEKE…never mind the haters and the lames…do you mama….stay Up!! Its amazin how ppl are so quik to try and dictate other ppl lives when there own life is in need of guidance.
