Correction: Monica and Maino Are Just Good Friends
Earlier today I told you that Monica and rapper Maino were officially an item. This information came from an employee of Atlantic Records publicity department named Ashley Kalmanowitz.
Apparently, Ashley took it upon herself to deliberately deceive this blog and others by sending the photos of Maino and Monica under false pretenses. This was a publicity stunt gone wrong.
Monica attempted to reach out to me personally today to clear up this matter, but, unfortunately, we played phone tag all day. Monica is highly upset and she wants Sandrarose.com readers to know the truth.
Maino and Monica have been friends for over 10 years and they are not dating. A source who asked not to be identified, confirmed that Monica is dating Shannon Brown of the LA Lakers (more on that later).
Here is an email sent to Sandrarose.com by Patrice Horton of Mo’s management team:
Hi Sandra, it’s Patrice Horton. I am apart of Monicas team and she has been trying to contact you today. She hasn’t been addressing any rumors but feels it necessary to make it clear that she is not in a relationship with Maino at all and apologizes to him his mate and loved ones for any pain this may cause. They in my opinion are both great people and them and their families are all friends but that is all.
These rumors hurt the people that they are both seeing and must be stopped. Thank God for you and your site. We can always let people know the TRUTH. The funny part is this photo was taken as they saw each other and said hello. Monica was flown in with myself, other staff and Melinda just in time to be in the wedding . She left her performance and caught two planes to be there . She would never have missed it because she loves and adores her friendship with Tiny. Just wanted you to have the facts. And thank you from the entire Mondeenise Staff.

Maino dumb azz was in her video and was probably thinking the chit was real. Ol down syndrome azz.
SMH.
Whew! That was close!!!! I will sleep good tonight!
“Thank God for you and your site.”
Surely she jests?!?!
Duh!!! We all knew that!
The photo didn’t look legit anyways…
Monica ain’t trying to screw with no Maino’s slow behind! Girl please!!!
Well good for Monica !!!!!
So how do you know if your “source” is tellin the truth about her and Shannon??? I say you should wait and ask Monica yourself before you post it
Oh and her new man???
Ummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm!!!!
For some reason, I am sooooooooo sleepy!
“People seem to come and go so quickly around here.” ~ Dorothy, “The Wizard of Oz”
That was a fast run around the blog track for Maino. That was fixed pronto.
Shannon will have to do a drive by or something to get himself arrested to prove his love for Monica. It’s the only way…
Sandra, you are downright vicious! there was no reason to say the name of the person you supposedly got the information from. whether or not you’re telling the truth about the source, you’ve more than likely caused this Ashley person to lose her job or at the very least, put her in the precarious position of defending herself against something you’re accusing her of saying. i hope Ashley is a fictitious person and that you wouldn’t go around outing the very people you depend on for information to post on your blog.
anyhoo, nobody believed for a second that a random shot of Monica and Maino confirmed their relationship status. i, for one, take everything i read on any blog with a grain of salt…but that’s just me.
Ms. Horton should send Apple an email and let them know the comma button doesn’t work on her Iphone.
so we ‘posed to believe that shes dating this shannon guy now huh?
guess ill just wait until she post who shes dating on her twitter page
how did i miss this gem…
OutsidetheBox says: “Thank God for you and your site.” Surely she jests?!?!
kay…
Why didn’t she just log in and clear it up since you guys were playing phone tag.
So the heat index is 102 outside so I was tryin to find a shirt that would be cool well this shirt is a little on the snug side so if I sneeze…. major spillage!
Good Luck on your job ASHLEY! Always trying to down this site…..for everyone that talks Shyt, they still log on for there DAILY DOSE!
@Speak
Whaaaaa? LOL
Its too obvious that she does not read SR on the daily.
LOL

LMAO! Girl you kill me errtime.
I had a feeling this was coming as the pic didn’t look couple-ish to me. But again, at least the new dude is willing to put on a suit. Anything is a step up from Rocko and even he was a step of from the other dudes she’s been attached to. She’s getting better and better.
I knew that news was a lie because Monica doesnt seem like the type of chick that would be in a new relationship that quick and she wouldnt put her business out there like that. Any other time we get correct juice right from Monica herself so why trust this Ashley chick to give the school from the record company? Naw, Monica isnt bed hopping and dating all over town cuz she doesnt even have time to randomly end up in a relationship.
His it’s been in the triple digits here and since this is a govt been parkin is kinda far away fron the bldg so you liable to break out in a sweat just walkin to the door!
@ 2
x 10
But for real, Shannon Brown is a cutie
definite upgrade from Rocko..that dude was sportin the everlasting mean mug.
yeah but Rocko didn’t look retarded
Ol down syndrome azz

Man I took a chane and wore it against my better judgement but it’s very professional so now i feel bad but hell it’s hot!
Didn’t auntie say we don’t beleive her when she says things in advanced, maybe this is why…then trying to be mad at the “industry insider” smdh
You know who you are!
Hmph I know Al aint talkin about me so yall get yo azzes in the kona!!!!
I don’t feel sorry for the person you put on blast. These fake azz label people and their fake azz image building get on my last nerve. She doesn’t have to worry about her job, because someone probably put her up to it. I was actually worried for Monica for not going along witht the charade or making the label aware that she had another high profile guy they could pimp.
You know who you are!
with me. BYE!

i am on my way…taking some

And Mo not with Shannon either…he doesn’t have a cell block alias or a thug life tattoo on his neck
…that’s two exes on the list right there
Man the govt installation I work at don’t play that shyt! They’ll send your azz home in a heart beat. Plus I want to be known for the work that I do and not the skimpy clothes I wear, that shyt you save for home

Every woman is remembered for her clothes anyway. Make sure everything else is ultra conservative, and make that top snug enough to touch your heart and lungs.
Kwall I told you to google T.T. Tiny and watch the 3rd one that pops up with their name
Yall got me
…
Maino’s azz got to be mildly retarded to come up with a song called Hi Hater!
No shade to Maino but hopefully Monica will stop the pattern with Shannon Brown (I don’t know much about him but I don’t think he has a prison rap sheet). Like I said in the other section Maino is cute; Shannon is too.
@Brown…I will do it when I get home. I promise. Cause I know it must be crazy. I’m kinda scared really. On what it is…Lmfao in advance.
now that we have that settled.. I can go back to work now
it’s nothin to be scared of it’s just funny, you how how you type it in and all the link pop up that you can go to well the third one said T.I. Tiny Ugly
Don’t you know I bout died!

Maino was one of them kids in the store walkin with a leash. Had to wear a tag with his name, address and phone number in case he got lost until he was 25 and chit. Still eatin everything with a “spoon” for “safety.”

Well, hello Bird. And where have you been?
I’m pretty sure Maino rode to school in one of those long white vans with the big windows that don’t open.
@ Brown, I think you may not only be a client but the cut up president! The Chairman, CEO, COO, CFO….you get my point
You still my girl tho
Still eatin everything with a “spoon” for “safety.”
Bwaahhahahahah!
Al whatever do you mean???
Gotta love Patrice!! She def holds Mo down! And umm yall can lay off the Mo only like thugs talk…..do u know her personally? I didnt think so…
Dallas I love Mo like I love the mole on my left cheek but we are just going off the type of men she’s been in long term relationships with! SO while we don’t know her personally we can tell her type from the men she’s been with!
@Dallas
Do you know her personally? Im asking this not to be rude, but it’s only opinions being stated and they may be wrong, but based off what I’ve seen I would say the same thing. Look at who Monica has dated. If C-murder were paroled today I bet she would be outside his jail waiting to pick-up where they left off.
am I the only nosey one that looked her up on fb?
ZzzzzzzzzzZzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz!!!
SAWEEEEEET CHEEEKS!
Auntee I blame YOU for not confirming this news with your good friend Monica before you created the post. After all, YOU have control over the info YOU post on YOUR blog.
Where the hell is everyone?

Well you know I was a limo driver for a year so that cut down on my daytime computer usage big time. Then my computer at home finally up and quit on me a month or so ago so I couldn’t even get on at night. Then I got a real job, but it took them 6 weeks to get me a dang computer. In the mean time I got married on 7/10 and that and the honeymoon took all our dough so now we are working on getting a computer at home. Praise God I work at HP so I can get one cheap. Anywho, I’m back. I missed you guys like the dickens!

@Free…reading back my comment came off so harsh! Please replace shyt with poo-poo…there all is better now
@ Crza and Bird,
I do too and it seems like people just keep exploiting her for the sake of a laugh. Geez where is her people at? And did you know she has a child? I didn’t
I knew some dog would catch the bone that was thrown to them
Good one Man
Brown says:

Really?
@Al
ANd the fools that was typing it were laughing. I heard something about a child and her mama. What was she rapping about? Dang I feel sorry for her.
yall going hard today! maybe monica has finally put the du-rag down for good. she needs a new benefactor so she may have changed her preferences up a lil bit.
Is “Dallas” gettin salty that Monica is a female “prison jump suit? “Random thug niggas just take turns gettin in and out of her? How is that OUR fault?
Free yes it is
where can i see the video at? Dang last time I saw a post of her she was gaining weight and looking healthy…poor thing completely lost it when her momma died *sidenote her mom was a really good author*
@crza, I don’t know but she was going hard with her lil freestyle.
And did you see when she was about to fight the two girls and followed them up the street talking crazy?
Cheeks
I saw it on youtube. Just type in her name
@ Al
YES!! What was that in her hand? I hope she wasn’t just walking the streets. Lord
Sometimes i cant even watch that type of stuff.
OTB
GIrl it’s sad. Her hair!!!
It’s painfully obvious she has mental health issues. Even as a fiend she could be a high class ho with her looks and celeb status. I think the mental health issues are the reason for her being a straight up crack fiend out in the streets. There is nothing anyone can do to help her and very little she can do to help herself.
Maia Campbell needs help. I wish she had someone in her life that would help her out because she truly needs help. People go out of their way to exploit that woman and post her videos online. She has serious mental issues and she needs to get proper medical attention.
I knew she had mental health problems but not a drug one. She’s a pretty girl. Congrats on the marriage Bird. My one year anniversary is next month.:)
WHY Y’ALL MADE ME WATCH THAT? I HAD TO TURN IT OFF. :NO:
**************
@Bird
I’m so glad you are back to posting. We’ve been here for years & I’ve missed your wise posts!!!
@Bird
I agree. I heard her mother was trying to get her help when she was alive but since she died I don’t think there is anyone else.
umm yall i think my b strap just broke!!!!!!!!
I cannot w/yall today!
@BROWN
“umm yall i think my b strap just broke!!!!!!!!”
______________________________________________________________________________
@ OTB, sorry, I just stumbled on it and couldnt believe it cuz after the first video, I saw her and she was looking good. I thought she was on the road to recovery.
Just goes to show no matter looks, how much money or status a person has, they can still have there own personal demons.
this just aint my day!
broooownayyyyy girl i been busy all day
bish called in today so guess who dolo in this bish to pick up her slack. bet she did that on purpose cause i was off last week

She was wrong for what she did. Monica deserves better than to have a PR department making up lies about her. I’m also mad that Ashley didn’t send me the rest of those clear pictures from the wedding.
@SR
Don’t you check the facts before you post? Oh wait this is a blog, luv ya!
@man monica has been with 1 man for almost ten years. You know you are all kind of wrong for that comment. How many people on here can honestly say they been with 1 person for 10 years?

HELL IF THEY CAN SAY IT, I HOPE THE ARE CALLING EACH OTHER HUSBAND AND WIFE AND NOT BOYFRIENDAND GIRLFRIEND…ROCKO WAS HER BOYFRIEND.
@ms thickness u missed the point, go read the comment the person made. I don’t think it matters, in some parts of the world people don’t believe in the western concept of marriage. Some cultures a man can have as many as he can take care of. The point is the comment was made to give the idea that she has men walk all up and through her, which is not true.
So what about the dudes she has dated in the past? With the exception of one, they both were entertainers. For all we know its an image they portray to the world….My thing is this, its okay to have an opinion, we all have them. But lets not forget Monica is human and at the end of the day, your opinions are just that opinions. So making insulting jokes or references to her personal life as if you know what ur talking about is not cool. Furthermore, you cant help who you fall in love with. Obviously there is something about those guys she found attractive aside from the “thug” persona they portrayed to the public.
What just kills me is some of the women posting and dogging Monica act as if every dude they have dated were like Barack Obama, lol. Lets be 4real
“What just kills me is some of the women posting and dogging Monica act as if every dude they have dated were like Barack Obama, lol. Lets be 4real”

J/K I totally get what you all are saying…you wasting your time tho LOL
@dallas they behave on here like their life is perfect, you can’t win, its all fun and jokes to them to make fun of people and their life.

I understand what you are saying…however she is the one in the spotlight…
Also fyi my exes are/were military for almost 20 years, a civil engineer, and an ex marine and all but one are college educated. I have never been attracted to “thugs”. I was raised to want more than that…no offense to those who like that.
