DECODING JADA AND WILL’S "OPEN" MARRIAGE CONFUSION

Every time Jada Pinkett-Smith says something about her 16 year marriage to Will, people take it to mean that they have an open marriage. I didn’t really know why people thought that before but I think I do now. I also think I know what she’s really saying in interviews. You see, people get confused because Jada is so wordy in her response that it seems like she’s almost talking in code. This doesn’t help her deflect the comments on her marriage. It just looks like she’s hiding something.

DRAKE’S DENIAL

Drake decided to speak his piece on the issues he has with Chris Brown. According several sources, he told a radio DJ that the media needs to stop preying on Brown’s insecurities and that Rihanna fell into his lap. This interview appears to be his confirmation of an earlier relationship with Rihanna.

I think Drake is in a little bit of denial here. Even if he dated Rihanna, it was pretty clear that she still had feelings for Chris. I think it was deeper for him than it was for her and, at thi...

HALLE HAS A THERAPIST

Halle Berry recently admitted that she has been seeing a therapist off and on for 30 years. The actress grew up with an alcoholic, abusive father. Her mother put her therapy when she was a child and Halle says she turns to a therapist when she has rough times in her life.

I have two thoughts on this. For one, I’m glad she’s getting help. There’s nothing worse than a person that’s in denial about needing help. On the other hand, I have to wonder how good of a job these therapists are doing tha...

ATLANTA “HOUSEWIFE” AND FORMER BALLER HEAD FOR DIVORCE

This week, The Real Housewives of Atlanta’s Porsha Stewart learned through the media that her baller husband, Kordell Stewart, filed for divorce. Supposedly, she was “blindsided” by the news that her marriage was over, even though the court papers say that they were separated. Kordell has received a lot of heat lately. One of the main storylines on The Housewives is how controlling he is with Porsha.

Well, it’s unfortunate to see people end their marriage. I’d be lying if I said I didn’t see t...

LOVE AND HIP HOP STAR PREGNANT

In case you missed it, there’s a pregnant “stars” on the Love and Hip Hop New York show. It is Winter Ramos. Winter’s baby daddy is not famous, although she has published a book titled Game Over where she talks about her affairs with celebrities. Rapper The Game was included in the book. She also claims to have slept with 250+ men.

Why a woman would tell people she’s slept with that many men is beyond my comprehension? There is no positive way to spend that. Nonetheless, congrats on baby.

LIL WAYNE SEIZURES

Apparently, TMZ is taking some heat for their coverage of Lil Wayne’s seizures this week. The rapper seized on Friday. It’s not his first time going to the hospital for seizures but this time, the popular gossip site reported that the rapper was in “critical condition” and almost near death. The rapper’s friends, family and fellow rappers rushed to Twitter and Instagram to refute the claims. They say he is alive and recovering.

I do hope that Wayne gets better. I also hope he uses this as a w...
