She has a good point.

 

its sad she has to defend herself about dating IR

 

She doesn't have to defend it. She is just trying to get album sales, just like everyone else. Notice don't hear anything until an album comes out. Then all of a sudden, "I don't understand why Insert barely controversial topic isn't more accepted, or why people feel negatively about this". Nothing new.

 

At least it's a "celebrity IR couple", right?

 

Damn. Why is she looking so hard standing with her man??
Like someone made her date IR.lol:smt026

 

LOL :smt110 A is silly

 

That's just the Philly in her

 

LOL, I dig Eve, but why did she go there with the BM comment? Black women have been 'doing it' for years as well.

I think where most of the flack generates from.. began with her first public IR appearance a couple of years ago with a rich old man. And she continued to date only rich older men.

The fact that Maximillion Cooper is worth $50+ Million...well you do the math. A little more realism and less deflection please Eve.

 

She is trying to sell a crappy album and to do that she needs BW to buy her albums. In order to accomplish this (especially after a long hiatus), she has to bring up a hot topic with BW and make back handed comments towards BM. And no matter how bad her album is, people who support this line of thinking will support it (preview the album on itunes and then see the extremely positive reviews).

What amuses me is that people seem to forget how many Black Men died for love or the inclination of interest in a single white woman. Yet, the only approved interracial relationship by the Supreme Court was a BW/WM relationship. The fact that she dates WM is not even remotely an issue with mainstream society.

The issue is that she needs to complain to maintain some level of "street cred" in regards to the medium she uses. Her lifestyle makes it a little difficult to believe her "thuggish" brand of music. So, I think she feels she must do these things to sell albums (or at least her label does).

 

Amen people amen

The fact that she felt the need to mention shows how bs her "relationship" is

 

Good for her! More women should follow her example. And again, who cares?

 

completely read my mind

nice try tho on behalf of eve :smt043

 

Keep your women honest young philly

 

Well I'm hating...not because he's a WM...because Eve is my boo (she just don't know it yet, lol) :smt047

 

You'd have to fight me for her!!! That woman has been my crush since high school...maybe white men aren't the only thing she's in to? :smt077

 

You can do better youngin

 

YOU :smt072

 

some women just have sex appeal cuzzy. not conventionally gorgeous, but have that certain je ne sais quoi, and Eve has it.

 

No matter how you slice it...this woman is BEYOND gorgeous

 

She's wacky to me. Small boobs and a little too hood for me. I like classy educated girls
