Umm, I thought he was broke a long time ago. And out of that $1 million that he won from American Idol, his uncle stole $300k of that, so homebody's been broke for a minute now. Unless she's beeing living under a rock, his bride should've known his azz was busted before she married him. |

It's really sad. Although Ruben actually won American Idol, his runner-up Clay Aiken's career was managed much more efficiently. He even had a prime-time, hour long Christmas special on NBC a couple of years ago. Also Ruben had a niche with the passing of Luther Vandross and Gerald Levert. A lot of former "Idols" are doing Broadway shows as well. |

There is a difference between being broke and having a tax debt people!!! This "article" mentioned nothing about Rueben and his wife being homeless or hungry. And if some of y'all wasn't claiming Punkin's kids illegally on your taxes y'all would owe Uncle Sam too!!
And another thing MTO.....I am an avid, faithful MSNBC veiwer and MSNBC.com reader.....there has been no such article recently about Rueben being broke. If so, it was long ago when his "God-Father" was stealing from him.....and that would make you late, yet again, with the scoop. (and before any of you get to poppin off at the mouth, I use MTO as a "for entertainment purposes only" read.....this is pure tabloid!!!) |

Why do you all like to kick people when their down and out, it could easily happen to any of you. Especially if your African American. Don't forgot, his family robbed him of a lot of his money and also he stills has his voice which they can never take from him so he really hasn't lost everything. He still has his gift...people wake up because the federal government is just targeting another successful young black person. His talent is worth way more than a measly $200,000. You can easily make it back Rueben as long as you keep that in mind. It amazes me at how much we as black people are like crabs in a barrel. We love to make fun of each other and crack jokes about situations that are very painful for anyone. We really need to grow up and start supporting each other more! When that happens, we can begin to benefit from giving to one another by getting back more than any of us could ever imagine...and I am not talking about money. |

Hopefully Ruben can make a comeback. Only Kelly Clarkson has been the most sucessful AI contestant. Ruben needs to find an audience. I don't see Ruben having any longevity in the music business. Some people can sing in talent shows but it takes a whole lot more to remain steady in the music industry.
He was new with money and obviously didn't have the right people working for him.
He surely shouldn't have had such a lavish wedding being in that debt though. |
