A MESS!!! THE SWIZZ BEATZ-ALICIA KEYS-MASHONDA DRAMA HITS THE MAINSTREAM GOSSIP PAGES!!
 







September 15, 2008. MediaTakeOut.com was the first news source in the world to tell you about the happenings in the Swizz Beatz Mashonda divorce. Well the NY Daily News is now onto it. Here's what they're reporting:
Alicia Keys could be named as "the other woman" in the divorce of hip-hop producer Swizz Beatz and R&B singer Mashonda, sources tell us.

[Mashonda] thought they were trying to put their marriage back together. Meanwhile, he's apparently been telling Alicia that his marriage was over.

Though he accompanied Alicia on her European tour last summer, Swizz has continued to live, off and on, with Mashonda and Kasseem Jr. at their Westchester mansion, says a friend.

Mashonda is said to have exploded when she found a flirty e-mail from Alicia on Swizz's BlackBerry. According to sources, she fired back a reply, reminding the singer he was still her husband.

Mashonda has now hired powerhouse matrimonial lawyer Bernard Clair. "This could have been handled quietly," said a friend. "But now Mashonda has taken the gloves off."

Well ... hate to say that we told ya so .... But here's Swizz's side of the story, via his rep:
I can no longer ignore the harmful rumors, that my friend Alicia Keys is in any way linked to my marital circumstances or to the decision that [my wife] Mashonda and I have made to separate.

I am disappointed that some have chosen to try and tarnish Alicia's reputation by irresponsibly implicating her in a situation that she has absolutely nothing to do with.

This experience has been one of the most difficult times in my life, and as was stated when we announced our separation several months ago, I ask that you continue to respect my privacy in dealing with this personal matter.

This is just MESSY!!

    Alicia and Mashonda are both signed to J records and were already acquainted. Alicia very well knew Mashonda was married to Swizz. Swizz will be sucked dry, child support gonna eat him alive. As for Alicia "what goes around, comes around."

    What a way Alicia to destroy your bi sexual rumors, you go after an unresolved, popular producer. See, that white Momma gene come seeping out at some point.

    Reach into your father's side, mellow out that ego, save the "Im happy to be black speeches" and find morals. You screwed up your career exercising your Momma's genes.

HALLIE BERRY WAS ON OPRAH, SAYING SHE TRIED TO KILL HERSELF OVER THEIR BREAKUP. SHEMAR MOORE CLAIMS HE AINT GAY BUT IS SHOWN IN THE NUDE ON A GAY BEACH. DEREK JETER CLAIMS HE AINT GAY BUT TYSON BEDFORD HAD HIS NAME TATTOOED ON HIS ARM.THOSE SWIRLY PEOPLE HAVE TOO MUCH DRAMA IN THEIR LIVES AND PEOPLE LIKE US NEED TO STAY AWAY FROM THEM WHEN IT COMES TO RELATIONSHIPS. THEN THEY THINK THEYRE BETTER THAN US BECAUSE THEYRE HALF AND HALF. I'M LIGHTSKINNED AND WOULD NEVER DATE A SWIRLY. THEYRE CRAZY AND MESSED UP!!!

    Alicia on J. Mashonda on J. Mashonda and swizz getting a divorce. Alicia sexuality could ruin her career. What does Clive Davis and his team do. They create an affair story to end the lesbian rumors. When 1) mashonda and swizz was separating anyway and 2)They tell Mashonda and swizz to play along. Its a joke when people fall for something fake. Theres no affair... AK-47 is a lesbian

    REAL TALK! i am the most mad at swizz!!!!
    Alicia is a old school whore from uptown, so i only expect this from her.. but swizz always seemed so classy and humble, not like other rappers. his wife was by his side, they celebrated their sons birth publicially, he just seemed like a real guy, now hes wrapped into this mess with keys. this is exactly why kerry never really messed with her, he couldnt stand her ways. kerry was only around for the money,, he never really liked her, and he always had a girlfriend on the side,. any real woman would know that they should never mess with a married man. damn this is ugly.. oh well i knew it would come to light sooner or later. alicia and swizz belong together. mashonda please just get that lawyer of yours to go harddddd and im so happy u let swizz go , i was worried u was tryna hold on for a second and hes not worth holdin on to, plus u dont want that dick after shes done with it.. ughhhhh

    Did any one actually read the story, he said he is not dealing with Keys. Mashonda is mad cause he dont want her. When men are bringing money to the table and their spouse is not. They tend to want to move on after a while. She needs to give up trying to have a career in singing and get a degree in business, so she could do something. She could habve been running a foundation or some other sort of business bringing in her own cake, he would definitely got her some exposure for the business. Women think they can just sit on their azz and a man is going to spend all his hard earned money on you. Na, I do divorces for a living, they have not been in a long term marriage 10 years or more, she is gonna get some maintainence (alimony) and some child support, maybe even a house and a car, but she will not get what is most important, which is part of his future earnings. So her lifestyle will be reduced heavily. He is a go getter, he is around women who have their own money, he see's women grinding everyday for thier's. Dont you think that if she had any real talent she would have been had a hit single her husband is one of the highest paid producers in the industry. She clearly is not marketable. Women have to stop blaming others for their failures.

Why the heck would she be interested in Swizz Beats?? The only reason someone cute like Mashonda was in his face was because she thought he may further his career. Which obviously didnt happen....

    Im so mad at Alicia right now...
    From someone who always respected her and bought her albums- except for the last one (too damn depressing for me) But I do know- I WONT BUY ANOTHER ONE from her. I wonder how many other ppl feel the same way. I always supported her on the character of a person she was- never was a big fan of her artistry- although she is very talented- yes..
    But what I thought was- is not..and always KNOWING she was gay- i was okay with that- whether she wanted to admit or or not..it was fine...BUT THIS..isnt fine..
    I CANT STAND WOMEN who deceive each other.
    YES SWIZZ is the one that is married to Moshonda and thats his problem- but as women-do we have to make it so much easier for them- ..that gives us no excuse to lower ourselves to their demands,
    Obviously Alicia is not as "mighty" and "put together" as many thought she was. In fact she is displaying GREAT low self esteem to even wanting to be bothere w/ someone WHO IS GOING THROUGH a divorce/seperation..whatever....SHe didnt even have enough respect to allow him to go through what he has to go through before trying to dick ride...
    Whatever- im disgusted w/ her..and she was better off coming out the closet than doing this low life tacky [EXPLETIVE]. The way she is carrying on w/ this womans HUSBAND is pathetic and embarrsing.....
    Moshanda dont worry ma- what goes around comes around..STAY FOCUSED on you and your child..and trust me - its only a matter of time before Alicia leaves him alone- and go back to her girlfriend..(or find a new one)
    Alicia- YOU SUX- and your full of shyt w/ all that positive talk- Next time - when you perform at one of the parties- IM STARTING THE BOOS on your phony azz...

    barbinbmore


    Well, the way I see it is that Mashonda vannot blame Alicia for breaking up their marriage. It sounds like the marriage was already broken before AK came in the picture. Now maybe Mashonda thought she was going to get a chance to fix things before he got with another woman but that's her mistake for allowing him all that free time to get snatched up by Alicia. Now she wants to blame AK for her problems.

    If Swizz wants to stay in his marriage, there is no pussy trick in the world Alicia can do to keep him from his wife!
     

    truebahamian
    And why the hell is she attacking Alicia? You need to take that sh*t up with your husband, not blame the woman who he told he was getting a divorce.

    Women, stop blaming other people when stuf happens in your life, like Katt WIlliams said,
    "How the f*ck could you blame me for your self-esteem issues. It's called SELF-ESTEEM"

    It’s only a “mess” because of the celebrity status of Alicia. I do agree that if/when a woman is aware that a man is still married…separated or not, she should avoid becoming involved with him…otherwise this is the type of thing that happens, the woman is always considered the home wrecker, regardless of the males’ actions in the situation. None the less, it takes “two” to tango. Had it NOT been Alicia it would have been some one else. Swizz was hell bent on having a new relationship prior to officially ending his prior commitment, as evidenced by reports of him following her (Alicia) on your European tour. Swizz is the one who disrespected HIS relationship, HIS wife and HIS child….and he broadcast the viewpoint that it wasn’t a relationship to respect by HIS own behavior. His soon to be “ex” will take him to bank on this one, and righteously so. It’s more than apparent that he did some “leading on” and created “false hope” for things to get to this point with her. It’s just too bad that Alicia is the “other woman” in Swizz’s disregard and disrespect of his “ex.”

    the way i see it, Alicia needs to wake the hell up, Swizz started off lying to her talking about the marriage is over, but still going home to Mashonda? Mashonda shouldve filed along time ago when he cheated the first dozen times, she just tried to save it because swizz was and STILL IS taking care of her..Alicia and Krucial are NO LONGER A COUPLE people. Alicia is burning down her own empire with this one by not even being woman enough to speak up or have her PR people issue a statement for her..and for those who dont believe this story, go to missinfo.tv, she has pics from swizz bday party and if u look in the background while angelique kidjo is performing, its ALICIA'S BAND who is playing in the back.

    There is NO reason for me to stop buying her albums. I always did and always will! There still have not been ANY evidence that Swizz and Alicia are messing around besides his soon to be ex-wife accounts. I am not the type of person to just believe something someone says without having hard evidence. But that's just me. Developing....

    I bet Alicia is involved in their breakup, I'm sorry she aint no perfect princess folks need to get that out of their heads, she has the capacity to do dirt too. I wonder if Mashonda can afford Gloria Allred as her attorney. She needs to go for the jugular and get all her loot!!

    @milesperhour, that's an interesting viewpoint.. men are horrible liars and they will get caught (unless the woman is in denial). So, when you catch the b itch.. dump him. Why bother looking in his Blackberry (I will plead guilty to doing this) and wasting your time.

    Married woman here...Mashonda has evidence people, while he was staying on and off at home, trust me, she hired a investigator and legal representation because that marriage has been rocky right after she became a mother to his child. Swizz is going through mid-life crisis and is not ready to be a husband and FATHER. Mashonda was around BEFORE the big money. No prenup...so he is screwed. I am a Alicia fan but that doesn't mean she isn't a homewrecker. How many artist write positive lyrics and live their lives parallel to it??? not many! Alicia's reps are trying to work in spins to keep her name out of the divorce, it won't work! Mashonda is hurt and her husband led her to believe that he was going to work things out but instead he decided to keep two women as long as he could. He thought that Mashonda would deal with it in order to save her marriage like most married women who are still in love with their husbands but guess what...he was wrong. After all this...Alicia will NOT continue this relationship too long because it is bad press. She will be another J-LO, link herself to someone else as soon as the current man's reputation is tarnished.

    I have to agree with bronxd......for a husband to defend the "other woman" and to act more concerned with her reputation rather than his wife's.....he needs to be left and get himself straightened. As for Alicia....really thought more of her before this. Now she appears to be just another woman, insecure and believing she's worth nothing unless she takes. How disrespectful.

    Im a Flirt...
    I hear you- but thats how it is hon. This is the way the world works. Unfortunately as an artist- other things come into place than just your music. The character plays a big part- which is one reason why artist have media training..etc- to MAKE SURE you know how to give interviews..etc- because it DOES make a difference.
    You know how many albums i did not get just on the persona of the individual. You know how many albums I did get because of that. I may have not been a fan but after their interview- you begin to get a liking to the PERSON behind the artistry- so it does make a difference.
    I said the same thing about Michael- REGARDLESS OF WHAT PPL THINK of him- he is the best entertainer in the world and because IM A FAN of his- you respect his music period- but you know how many others judge HIM according to his "personal life" not HIS MUSIC..thats how it is..
    The bottom line is did Alicia break up their home- HELL NO..
    But her dealings w/ him- STILL BEING MARRIED- questions HER character..and for all ALICIA fans- i know it dont matter what she does...
    For ppl like me- that respects her work- but not necessarily a fan of hers- IT DOES....
    Imagine how many other million of ppl think the same way- that all adds up to DOLLARS- MONEY!!$$$
    I just think its sad that women think its okay for her to be carrying on w/ someone that is STILL LEGALLY MARRIED. PERIOD. Whether she is the cause of the marriage break up or not is IRRELEVANT- the fact that she is interfering in it- IS ENOUGH...

    @bronxd: good point about the fact he'd rather defend Alicia rather than his wife. I agree too that this whole thing is a big competition for Alicia. My boyfriend is in the music industry and has worked with many female singers including JLo, Mariah, Alicia, Britney etc. He says despite being portrayed as being on top of the world, most female celebs are incredibly insecure and have low self esteem. That's why they are so narcissistic and think the whole world revolves around them. He was working with JLo on a video once and said how nasty she was, treating people like they were her slaves and never once did she say please or thank you to anyone. So this doesn't surprise me.

    @ MDL219

    Good point.. Maybe if Mashonda had some business her marriage might be in tact. Nobody knows what happened, but I have sen women push men inot the arms of another woman. No saying this is the case but I wont rule it out. Not sure if swizz is a habitual cheater or flirt. On the other hand come on ladies lets keep it real! Ladies we know our men better than we know ourselves and she knew what she was getting when she married swizz. I've said this time & time again.. u marry a celeb u get cheated on! NOT SAYING IT'S RIGHT BUT IT IS WHAT IT IS! Why is Mashonda surprised? niw that he's cheated she wants to take him to the cleaners? Give me a break.. I'm a woman and I'm all 4 prenups.

    @opining
    Thank u!! So tired of hearing Alicia being called every name in the book. She was wrong, but Swizz is the one that's married. Why should anyone respet your marriage if you dont?!

     

    Travis
    Mashonda ain't getting nothing extra. She has to prove that Swiss and Alicia are [EXPLETIVE] b4 she gets that extra money. The only pics there are of Alicia and Swiss is that old ass pic MTO keep putting up.Pics of them together only proves they are friends. The judge has to see some proof. Pics, video(explicit pics and videos), Phone Convo, which she can't record unless he says she can or it won't hold up in court. There is a lot of variables that go into getting alimony from a person you say has cheated on you in marriage. It is a pretty tough task.

    @chocolate virgo I said the same thing last post. Alicia is wrong but you ultimately have to blame swiss cause he telling them both what they want to hear. If he doesn't want to be kept why keep him?
     

    Ky
    Swizz has NO prenup. He was with Mashonda from jump. They worked together in his business. She will get a lot because she wasn't a housewife. She was a contributor, that plays a part in a divorce. Plus, they was not legally separated. He left the house. That is abandonment...you can not leave your wife and child without legal separation. If you pack up and leave without doing this...you are in risk in a court of law.

    Hi im Themarried Type, but call me wifey

    esotericdredz
    I hate the term homewrecker...

    Its really a silly term...All that word does it take the responsibility off of the cheating spouse and improperly places it on the third party. You can't wreck a home unless someone in the house opens the door and invites you in. In cases like this, its kind of sexist too, as it reinforces the old Jezebel stereotype.

    Its the cheating spouse that's wrong....They are the one with the commitment...Anything else is passing the buck.
     

    Travis
    He can leave if he still supporting her. She isn't abondoned cause she stay in the house HE paid for. She still eating the food HE buys. The clothes on Her back is from his money. All that other stuff cars and toys aren't nothing but as long as he was providing for her and his kids she can't say he abondoned her. No court will agree with that. So as long as he was doing that he does not need to be there. It is all about the money...
     

    takeitorleaveit
    Superwoman can't save him from this huge settlement wifey is about to get. Mashonda deserves it. The two could have been discreet and waited before he started cavorting around the globe with Keys. I hope Alicia knows that what goes around comes around. She could have had any dude. Yeah she wasn't the one on paper, but she can't say that she didn't know he was married.

    Leaving your spouse without good causes like domestic violence,or other serious factors, but just to leave without cause is abandonment of your marriage. If this your spouse abandons the marriage without good cause he, or she will be entitle to any alimony, or support.
    They purchased that house as a married couple. She didn't just move in with him. Regardless who purchased the food or buys the clothes...you can't up and leave without just cause, that is why he should have filed for legal separation. That has nothing to do with Alicia, When you are married it is a legal contract. You can't break the contract unless you seek legal representation. This isn't some girlfriend with her baby. This is why divorce is something NOBODY can say is easy because there are many laws that you are not aware of until you get lawyer.

    Bottom Line- What goes around comes around- And Alicia Im sure may have many of esteem issues- which is why shes all over the place- dealing w/ chicks/ old men/ married men- shes a hot mess- and tries to cover it up w/ her songs...

    Well ain't that just like "sisters" to blast on Alicia. Of course we don't know the REAL, TRUE story, but we just gonna blame it ALL on Alicia when the truth is that the marriage was probably in shambles to begin with. Forget the fact that HE walked down the asile with Mashonda and took marital vows. We just gonna pretend like Alicia is running the show and orchestrated this whole dayum mess. He's SWISS BEATS! Ya'll really think he was "Ol Faithful" and then Alicia came along and threw a monkey wrench in the marriage?
