"Gossip, like everything else in the media, is a business…. The reason why Page 6 doesn't care about Mashonda or Swizz Beatz's past is because Page 6 has no real clue who the hell those people are. Or if they do know who they are, they do not care because they know that Swizz Beatz and Mashonda don't sell ads." (via)
I only found out that Alicia Keys just got married from watching The Daily Show (of all places) on Monday night, and I'm a huge fan of hers.
Is she going to change her name to Alicia Beatz now?
I always thought Ms Keys was gay. Hrmf. That's what I get for ignoring Young Black & Fabulous.
Also, Swizz Beatz? That dude's got some ballz, probably because his name fucking slays on Scrabble.
I brought the up in Gawker comments. I got an explanation similar to this, and also that Keys has a really powerful publicist apparently.
Oh, well this BlackSnob post actually quotes my comment.
