: MediaTakeOut.com warned you for months that this was coming. Dame Dash’s wife Rachel Roy has officially filed FOR DIVORCE. According to numerous reports Rachel, who married Dame in 2005 has decided to call it quits.
But there is a bright side to the divorce. MediaTakeOut.com learned that Rachel isn’t asking for any spousal support – she just wants out.
Guess Rachel figured you can’t get blood from a stone …
What up world?
Brothers, Brothers, Brothers....When will you ever learn?? When they marry you for your money and you go broke, they are gone. Find someone who love you money or not. He is getting just what he asked for.
Broke Motherfuker. Sisters we need to quit accepting this losers back. They make babies with us and soon as they get money they marry the first non-black women that will have them................WHEN THE MONEY IS GONE - SHE IS GONE.
This clown is BROKE, So she is getting out while she can keep HER money .. smart cookie!. She asking him for money is like asking a wino who is sleeping out of a shopping cart. Actually she would stand a better chance of getting money from that WINO.
This loser is right up there of being one of the worst business people around, he panic and sold off his share in Rockaware 2005 pretty much nothing'22 million dollar , Since then he has made bad investments with that money and its gone down the drain.
had he waited or not leave he would be set for life and still be living in the lifestyle he wants, because Rockaware annual earnings since 2006 have been over 700 million dollar...OUCH.
(*_*)
He didn't love her like he loved Aaliyah. If you look at all their pics, he's cheesing when he's next to Aaliyah. In his pics (and video) with Rachel he looks like he's just existing. Glad she recognized that she shouldn't just hold on to him because he got her started in the business. Why be in a relationship where there's no love?
Where are you guys getting this Dame has no money thing from? Just asking, enlighten me.
Anyway, I dig Rachel's designs...she has a lot of talent and seems to be very distinguished. I personally think Dame's "personality" took over the marriage. I don't think she had the swag to handle him.
Although I like Dame.
SHE'S NOTHING BUT A GOLD DIGGER!!! DAME WAS HER SECOND MARRIAGE SHE WAS MARRIED TO THAT BASKETBALL PLAYER YINKA DARE.. PROBABLY COULDN'T GET THAT RICH WHITE MAN (A LA J LO WITH BEN AFFLECK)SO SHE THOUGHT SHE COULD RUN SH!#T WITH A BLACK MAN. SEE WHAT HAPPENED A LESSON TO ALL MONEY HUNGRY WHORES. A PART OF DAMON DASH DIED WHEN AALIYAH DIED HE WAS NEVER THE SAME.
HMMM
If YOU HAVE MONEY AND YOU WANT TO KNOW IF THE PERSON IS THERE FOR THE DOUGH OR LOVE....fake like you lost everything.
Tell them you are broker than Dame Dash and see if they stick around. Tell them you won't be able to pay the bills, keep the house, and the family might need to move onto cardboard lane. See what happens.
This is a social experiment. Test it and get back to us with the results.
Aaliyah and Dame looked so happy together get it right.....She never spoke anything negative about their relationship...Dame said he was going to get married to Aaliyah when there schedule would allow them to...Other than that she was by his side and he was by her side...
Love Aaliyah rest in peace.....
Now his wife
ok well the vows say For richer and for poor however I guess the poor part does not fit her criteria .....What a wife? If he never cheated or lied to you and times got bad why would you leave if you calm to love him......
Was it for money and fame or the attention of being the it girl......Fellas be careful who you say "I do to".......
I SAW THAT COMIN! LOL HELL HE SHOULD OF GOT A SISTA! HELL HE WENT BROKE, WELL AINT RICH LIKE HE USE TO BE AND NOW SHE BAIL ON HIS AZZ! LOL A SISTA WOULD OF HELP HIM THRU AND BUILT HIM BACK UP AND TOLD HIM TO GET ON HIS BUSY AND FIND MORE TALENT! WE SISTAS ARE STRONG! INSTEAD SHE WAS LIKE IM OUT! PEACE! LOL NEXT TIME GET A SISTA DAME! LOL
I could be wrong but I do not think Dame was a mean person I think he is just sarcastic. I think he has a sense of humor people do not get.
If Dame wife used his money to start her career then she needs to either pay him back or if there was no prenup he can actually get money from her for spousal support.
IMSONEGATIVE...preach on. I know soooooo many black good women who love their men crusty drawes. He needs to invest what ever he has left over to a venture that will make him profit.
Also get a girl from his old hood that is broke now but business savy, a girl that any type of money would look good to her right now. When he gets back on his feet again he should cherish her for being there for him through it all. But you cant tell some people this.
GearsofWar...Everyone.. Look up damon dash in cribs (when he had money) when he goes to his cabinet and tells everyone how rich he is that he only wears his pair of socks once and throws em away. Thats how much a G he was.
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> I saw a clip of that before and I thought that was so dumb. I would love to see these Rich men give away their suits to brothas needing a nice suit for job interviews, church etc. Now that would be impressive, not bragging about throwing good things away.
Damned if she does, damned if she doesn't. Because she DOESN'T want to rake him over the coals for what he has left, everyone is calling her out of her name. She was self-sufficient and had a little money prior to their marriage. Give this woman a break.
Why are we knocking a woman with a CAREER to fall back on?
NOW THERES A WOMAN AFTER MY OWN HEART.....SHE DOESN'T WANT ANYTHING FROM THAT FOOL. SHE JUST WANTS OUT...CAUSE I WOULDN'T TAKE THAT SPOUSEL SUPPORT EITHER. HOW THE HELL CAN A WOMAN HOLD HER HEAD UP AND LET A FOOL SHE DOESN'T WANT ANYMORE TAKE CARE OF HER..AND SHE'S BEAUTIFUL..WONDER WHAT SHE SAW IN HIM!! SHE LOOKS SWEET AND I BET HE WAS AN AZZHOLE TO HER!!
Divorce because he's cheating and emotionally unavailable? yes because she is a gold digger and was only out for money? no
maybe the "limelight" but not the money. Dame's a Taurus...they love money and women they can be emotionally unavailable. they love attention...and have a bad temper. Did i say Taurean's love money?...they hate to be broke...so i am not buying the broke argument.That's why Dame and Jay got together in the first place...Sag and Tarurus are both very money driven.
like i said before...his personality traits might have ruined the relationship...i don't think money was the sole issue. if she was there in the beginning when the money was just getting poppin'..why would she bounce now? she's not even asking for money...so that let's you know he was on some other sh!t. a real gold digger would not hold back...they will put your ass in the poor house...money or not.
She's half Indian and Dutch
If he hasn't already, then Dame needs to take his cut from the clothing line that he bankrolled. It was his money that made her the success that she is because investors weren't exactly lining up to finance her art project. What a list celebs are lining up to wear her clothes on the red carpet . . .silence . . . crickets . . . Her line does moderate sales at best. She's not on par with Tory Burch, whose wears Oprah and the Lily Pulitzer crowd really do cop to wearing. Rachel sold half of her company to Jones New York for the same reason that Narcisso Rodriguez sold his company to Liz Claiborne, both were massively in debt and needed cash.
She had one appearance on Oprah as did Kimora, Stevie Wonder's wife Kai Mila, and a slew of others. Getting your wares on Oprah wouldn't have even been that hard to do for her given the fact that Damon was a rich, well connected entertainment exec, and Rachel was making cameos on the NYC charity circuit with well connected people, paying for tickets at benefits that she wouldn't have been able to afford without . . . you guessed it . . . Dame's money. Saying that Rachel got to be on Oprah because of her design talent is like saying that Jessica Seinfeld got to plug her book on Oprah because she's a fantastic author (LOL) and not Jerry Seinfeld's wife. Some of yall need to wake up for real!
Damon was her first husband. She was married to NBA player Yinka Dare before Damon Dash. Damon was her second husband, and everybody knows that it took Aaliyah's plane crash for Dame to go back to her. So yes, she is indeed a paper chaser, and the timing of her impending divorce is suspicious. So lets not get it twisted. Let's see what sucker is going to pick up her tab next. So far it's been mostly black men.
Strawberry-Kiwi:
Exactly..great example. MC Hammer's wife was there for him before he had the money and status and that's why she's still with him after. That's true love.
As I said before, these guys get money and status and the bourgeious, uppity, golddigging women that love em and get a reality check once they don't have either anymore.

There's no use in believing that Rachel secured the funds for her line on her own, or would you have us believe that it was only a coincidence that the line debuted only after she was married to Dame? Rachel Roy wasn't the only clothing line that Dame had a stake in. Samantha Ronson's line "S.Ronson" is/was funded by Damon Dash. Damon may or may not have had hundreds of millions, but when his partnership with Jay ended he had upper eight figure money. Jay sold Roccawear to Iconex for over 200 million,not 10 milliosn, and you're not including the money that he and Dame made off of the line at the height of the urban clothing craze, the money Dame made off royalties and salaries from Rockafella records, and whatever else Dame was into before his financial troubles.
@Strawberry-Kiwi
I checked that video out. All I can say is that she looks tired and detached. My impression by looking at this video is that she got chewed out constantly. She looks very sad.
I also saw a video which Dame talks about losing his mother made him become a monster for the money...like I said before, his personality traits cause this breakup...another one Taureans are close to their mothers most men who lose their mothers or have some kind of resentment...lash out on women.
right on point!! he should have gotten a sista! that's what always happens when these so called brothers get money but in his defense he did love a sista.. Aaliyah. Rachel Roy is (WAS) a gold digger. self sufficient please..She knew what time it was. Dash as arrogant as he is he did help her career if it were not for her association with DASH/ROCAWEAR she would only be talked about in BOLLYWOOD NOT HOLLYWOOD. Yeah he fell off big time but give this Black Man some credit.(ha not literally) Brothers love your black women get that industry sh!@t out of your head!
RACHEL DONE FOUND HER A BALLER...MARK MY WORDS! SHE DIDN'T FILE FOR SPOUSAL SUPPORT? AIN'T NO EFFIN SPOUSAL SUPPORT TO FILE FOR!
SEE GUYS, THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN YOU GET WITH A WOMAN WHO'S OBVIOUSLY WITH YOU FOR YOUR MONEY AND TO ADVANCE HER OWN CAREER..TO HELL WITH YOU.
DAME, IT MUST BE YA CASH CAUSE IT AIN'T YA FACE.
NOW, THERE COULD BE OTHER ISSUES, LIKE HOW AMAZINGLY ANNOYING THIS BYTCH IS (DAME)...(CAN TALK A MOFO INTO THE NEXT MILLENIUM WITHOUT TAKING A BREATH)..BUT WHAT HAPPENED TO FOR BETTER OR WORSE?
HOUSTON RAPPERS ARE REVOLTING...LISTEN TO SOME OF THEIR NEW LYRICS....ONE DUDE SAID HE'LL TAKE A NICKEL AND YA'LL CAN HAVE THE DIMES.....DIMES R TOO EXPENSIVE!
THEY SAID LOOK FOR SOMEONE WHO HAS SOMETHING GOING ON FOR HERSELF AND SHE'S NOT SOLELY DEPENDING ON YOU FOR SUPPORT.
I UNDERSTAND RACHEL IS A DESIGNER, BUT DAME COULDN'T GET HER THE EXPOSURE SHE NEEDED..........NOW, SHE'S ABOUT TO PULL A MILIEDMONDS.
MTO, DON'T BITE MY LINGO.
A MILIEDMONDS IS A CHRISTINA MILIAN/TRACEY EDMONDS MOVE COMBINED.
IF THE MOFO YOU WITH AIN'T ADVANCING YOUR CAREER, THEN MOVE ON TO THE NEXT MOFO AND KEEP ON MOVING UNTIL YOU FIND A MOFO THAT'S 'GON HELP YOU DO BIG THANGS- NOW THAT'S A MILIEDMONDS!!
THESE HOOES ARE SO SAD THESE DAYS.
well he got what he deserve. at least now he want get to say a black woman broke him. and really ,maybe she left because he sleeps around to dame much. u know how he gets down. i seen him on mtv cribs braggin about all the woman that come threw his door! i just hope baby girl don't have a (STD )OUT THE DEAL. GO GET TESTED BOO BOO!
Dame, grieve if you have to AND KEEP IT MOVING!!! To hell with what the streets are saying, they're going to talk ish when your back in peak condition anyway!
Keep your eyes on the second hand on your watch, that's your life slippin' away!! From one hustla to the next, we have our biggest moves to make yet! Let's get to work!!!!
@Fendi
It doesn't take a genius to figure out why Jay isn't in the same predicament. Dame only got a cut of what Jay made. For starters, unlike Dame, we know for certain that Jay has hundreds of millions. So if Armandale vodka or whatever isn't getting a foothold in the market, then Jay is better able to absorb the shock. Secondly, I think Damon sunk his money into ventures that he didn't necessarily know how to make work. He wanted to get his own conglomerate going, but that's easier said than done. You can own Pro-keds, but how do you increase Pro-keds market share? How do you make the brand as relevant as it was before you bought it? Now, Dame has a pretty good hustle and obviously an eye for talent if she signed both Jay and Kanye and Cam, etc., but running Rockafella with Jay on the roster is like Phil Jackson getting the lion share of the credit for the six championships with Michael Jordan on the team. I would assume that when Dame was partnered with Jay he had more money rolling in than he does without Jay.
As for S. Ronson, I stand corrected then, C. Ronson, and my bad, if you were talking about the record label not the clothing line. I actually think Dame and Jay sold Rockafella records to Def Jam for a lot less than ten million. The sale of that company was not where either made the bulk of their money,but that's really besides the point because you're POV is that Dame had no money to finance these ventures, when the reality is, Dame had the funds to bankroll quite a few, C. Ronson and Rachel Roy among them.
And You damn right, she wasn't broke. When she wasn't spending the NBA money she got off of Yinka Dare, she was probably spending Dame's child support checks that she got for their eldest daughter Ava.
Fendi, Being broke and having enough collateral to finance a clothing line like that are two things entirely. Kimora wasn't broke when she started dating Russell either, but she certainly didn't have the clout or the infrastructure to launch Babyphat on her own, and neither did Rachel Roy, and she most likely wouldn't have had the opportunity if not for Dame, period.
What reason do you have to believe that she could have gotten her line off of the ground without Dame? I mean we can sit here and pretend that Rachel would have put up with Damon(leaving her for Aaliyah even though Rachel and Damon had a daughter together) and the other chippies on the side, if he didn't have his money at the time. We could also pretend that the money that she got from the sale of her line isn't making the decision to leave any easier now that Dame aint so rich anymore, but sometimes, if it looks like a duck and quacks like a duck . . .then it's probably a . . .
I DONT THINK DAME LOVED RACHEL TO BEGIN WITH, SHE WAS THE REBOUND AFTER Aaliyah PASSED AWAY. RACHEL KNEW DAME FIRST AND HAD THIER DAUGHTER BEFORE THEY WERE MARRIED, AND SHE ALSO WORKED AT ROC A WEAR, THEN HE LEFT RACHEL FOR Aaliyah. HE HOOKED BACK UP WITH HER WHEN Aaliyah PASSED AND THEY WERE MARRIED. THEY NEVER LOOKED HAPPY WHEN THEY WERE TOGETHER AND DAME NEVER REALLY SPOKE OF HER MUCH IN THE MEDIA AND IN PUBLIC. YOU TALK ABOUT PEOPLE THAT YOU LOVE. YOU COULDNT GET HIM TO STOP TALKING ABOUT HOW MUCH HE LOVED Aaliyah, AND HE HAS A HUGE TATTOO OF HER FACE ON HIS BODY. RACHEL IS VERY SUCESSFUL IN HER OWN RIGHT, HER HIGH END CLOTHING LINE IS VERY SOUGHT AFTER. RACHEL JUST WANTED TO MARRY HER BABY DADDY, AND MAKE IT WORK, SHE KNEW GOING IN THE MARRIAGE HE REALLY DIDNT LOVE HER. NOW WITH THE FINANCES BEING BAD IN THIER MARRIAGE THIS REALLY DIDNT HELP, AND WE ALL KNOW THAT DAMES PERSONALITY CAN BE A MUTHER. SHE PROBABLY TRIED HER BEST TO MAKE IT WORK, BUT THEY BOTH COULD NO LONGER PRETEND ANYMORE. SO, SHE FILED FOR DIVORCE BECAUSE SHE LOOKED SO UNHAPPY TO ME, THE WORST THING IS BEING WITH A MAN YOU DONT WANT YOU.
Some women are about money anyway whether u have it or not they figure they still gonna get something anyway. Some mens are sorry too. Get married and still thinks they can play their cards, but if they can't deal them right, then don't play them at all. Marriage is only what u make of it, if u don't have God in your marriage and the both of u are not saved then u can expect things to get worse and not be married for long.
