Alicia Key's choice just goes to show what a dumbbitch she is: that she married a guy who has had three other children from three other women is just tacky.
just tacky....
a real dog dog dog bitchy shame.
He sounds like a winner. 4 kids by 4 different women? Ever hear of a condom, buddy? I feel bad for this kid being named Egypt. I'd kill my parents.
Go for it all those other women did not make him happy. Forget all the HATERS> Enjoy life>
wow, I used to have a lot of respect for Alicia but now.. I don't think I can even say good words for her... All I can say is that it shows how she doesn't love her son that much.. not enough to look for a good father...
wow peopke r jealous why does it matter if he has 4 kids with 4 women over 10 years the guys relationships probally didnt work out and i am sure the kids r tkeen great care of more clothes fod shelter then jealous people will ever see
Why on earth would anyone think it's any of their damn business???? Geez, a grown woamn forgot to consult you before making her own decisions about who she can be with. Get over yourselves and go fix all the things that are wrong with your own lives!!!
big up to my man...but am diapoited with the name, WHY EGYPT...out of many good names...fpr instance;my name Kago AKA Kay-Stah,this is a good name...I RESPECTed THESE GAYS...
Why does everyone care? Alicia is absolutely amazing but wasn't strong enough to make sure she got an honest man. She is definitely in for heartbreak but only because she fell in love and the guy's a tramp. You cannot blame her for just falling in love with a married man that tells her he's separated and has 4 kids with 4 different women. It just wasn't her smartest decision that's all. I just wish all the best for her and her baby.
