Russell Simmons in the latest issue of Floss Magazine responds to an interviewer's inquiries as to him having dated and married interracially. (Kimora is biracial which the interviewer notes.) Russell says that "when you become successful more people are interested in you, so therefore you end up dating more people". -Nice way to put it.

Does he mean he's getting two for the price of one, half a black person & half a white person, or whatever race she is mixed with? What does he mean by that?

Probally Black women didn't give Russell Simmons the time of day when he was broke living in the ghetto. So therefore when he gets the money and famehe goes get him a non black women to ease that pain of rejection

BUT....KIMORA LEE...she is just like the others..Ray Parlours wife and so on...Kimora had a reputation of being a golddigger. Russell mentioned in the interview that he met her when she was 17 and he was in his 30's. He said in another interview in VIBE magazine that she stood by him when one of his parent's died and through many breakups with other girls.

Him being a successful man in his 30's, there are plenty of black women to choose from if not other women of color. Kimora can speak three languages and is articulate but I don't find her classy. She tries to hard and has even been mocked in the New York Post for her tacky, materialistic comments

i hope she wont take the other half..since she got babyphat

Are you saying that white women gave him the time of day when he was broke and living in the ghetto?

Seriously! That statement was so nonesensical. Did you really mean it to come out that way?

Respect

It really vex me when I see successful black men like Russell Simmons and the like go and marry someone outside their race. What wrong with us black women? confused3Are we not a desirable? I wonder what the Russell Simmons of the world thought about themselves growing up in the ghetto. Maybe all the time they secretly wished that they were white. It is a damn shame.

I do not like to turn on the tele or read the paper and see a successful brother with another race. :X

have you seen the state of him, he looks like a brown pig, as a black women i would not touch him with a pole.

Also is he stating that by being rich more women like him including white women which means one thing. Groupie Taveller where are you Traveller).

[align=center]GOOD! STILL WONT TOUCH HIM WITH A POLE. [/align]
[align=center]LOL[/align]

@all yes the black women didnt want his ass when he was a nobody, so he married kimora lee because according to him she stood by him same goes for wesley snipes cuba jr etc..

thats his choice nothing can change that.

and not all succesful black men run after white women.

ask your sef why tina turner, diana ross etc. are****** white mensome of youppl are hypocrites.

You see all this anger from women directed at brothers who are succesful whatever that means.

Guess we mean make loads of dosh right?? :-)

Without knowing it you kind of back up their justifications for going outside the race.

I never hear any of these playa hating black women say - I would have dated him when he was poorand in the ghetto.

Jealousy is a bad ting! :-)

@Coltrane..bro you have the coo on all these issues..

Nah. She looks Oriental to me....Nice response by Simmons but he ain't no fool. But his argument is bull shit. Yeah more people are interested in..more black women particular. Look at Muhammed Ali and his confessed weakness to black women as a young man. Who could blame him ,see the type of black women on his case.[LOL]confused3


Simmons says as Simmons does. Always thought he he thought he was slick. So his response is typical Simmons..
