Gabe of BFV Talks Trina, Jealousy and Infidelities
Gabe Solis, husband of Braxton Family Values star Trina Braxton, is in hot water with his wife after a woman posted videos and screen captures of him allegedly masturbating on Twitter.com.
In an in-depth interview with WE tv, Mr. Solis admitted that he has a problem with infidelity. He also revealed that both he and Trina have been unfaithful to each other — though he claims he has never had sexual intercourse with another woman while he’s been married.
“I think people are unfaithful — I’ve always had issues before I met Trina,” he said. “I never had sexual intercourse with another woman,” he added. “Trina tells me to take a lie detector test and I’m like ‘go ahead.’ I was unfaithful, but at a certain level I always backed off, for my own sanity, the guilt. A marriage is hard work — whoever says it isn’t is lying.”
WE TV: Can Trina trust you to be faithful now?
GABE: I believe she can. I think I have some issues I need to work on — I’m seeing a therapist who has helped me deal with some things where marriage is concerned. I think I can be faithful to just Trina, but it’s really getting the opportunity to prove that.
Fantasia and Antwaun Cook Are Parents of a Boy
Last night the Internet was buzzing with the news that troubled singer Fantasia gave birth to her first son. The baby’s father, ex-T-Mobile manager Antwuan Cook, was said to be at her side during the delivery.
According to RadarOnline.com, Fantasia, 27, was admitted to Presbyterian Hospital in Charlotte, NC yesterday afternoon after she went into labor. The baby was actually due on December 29.
Cook is currently still married to his estranged wife, Paula — who claims Fantasia and Antwaun began an affair together while she and her husband were trying to patch up their marriage.
According to Radaronline.com, last November, Fantasia testified during a separation hearing between Antwaun and Paula that she had previously been pregnant by him and had an abortion.

Eddie Long Denies Stepping Down As Pastor of New Birth
During a surprise announcement from the pulpit on Sunday, troubled prosperity preacher Bishop Eddie Long announced he was taking time off as pastor of New Birth Missionary Baptist Church.
“I’m going to take a little time off to work with my family,” Long said Sunday. “I’m still your pastor. You’ll still receive my direction,” he said, choosing his words carefully. “You’ve given me some weeks to take care of some family business.”
The “family business” that Long seemed to be referring to were conflicting reports that his wife of 21 years, Vanessa G. Long, had sought to terminate their marriage.
On Thursday afternoon, Mrs. Long filed for divorce, saying her decision had been reached “after a great deal of deliberation and prayer.” The divorce was announced in a press release early Friday morning. But by Friday afternoon, Eddie Long’s own publicist released a statement attributed to Mrs. Long stating she was calling off the divorce.
A few hours after that statement was released, the media received word that the divorce was back on again.
Bishop Eddie Long’s Wife Says “Never Mind”
24 hours after filing for divorce from embattled Atlanta preacher Bishop Eddie Long, his long-suffering wife, Vanessa Long, has asked her attorneys to withdraw her divorce petition.
Mrs. Long blames “years of attacks in the media” for her abrupt decision to file for divorce yesterday (Dec. 1).
But in a new statement released this afternoon, Mrs. Long said,
“Upon prayerful reflection, I have reconsidered and plan to withdraw my petition for divorce from my husband, Bishop Eddie L. Long,” she said in an emailed statement bearing the New Birth logo. “I love my husband. I believe in him and admire his strength and courage.”
Yesterday, Mrs. Long appeared to give up on her marriage to the troubled leader of New Birth Missionary Baptist Church:
“After a great deal of deliberation and prayer, I have decided to terminate my marriage to Bishop Eddie L. Long. Accordingly, I authorized my attorneys to file for divorce on December 1, 2011.”
The divorce filing followed a tumultuous period for the Bishop, who, earlier this year, settled a sexual misconduct suit brought by 4 former Longfellow Youth Academy students, and a fifth man who was not included in the suit.
Bishop Eddie Long’s Wife Has Had Enough — She’s Filing for Divorce
According to CBS Atlanta 46, the long-suffering wife of embattled Atlanta prosperity preacher, Bishop Eddie Long, has filed for divorce.
Vanessa G. Long released a statement early Friday morning announcing her decision to terminate her marriage to Long, who is the leader of New Birth Missionary Baptist Church in Lithonia.
The statement reads as follows:
“After a great deal of deliberation and prayer, I have decided to terminate my marriage to Bishop Eddie L. Long. Accordingly, I authorized my attorneys to file for divorce on December 1, 2011.
It is my sincere hope that this matter can be resolved expeditiously, harmoniously, and fairly. I ask that you respect my privacy and that of my family, as my attorneys and I have agreed that we will not try this case in the media, and I do not intend to make any further statements concerning this matter.
I also ask that the public pray for my entire family during this difficult period of transition.
Thank you, and may God continue to bless and keep each of you.” Source

Woman Reveals 13-Year Affair With Herman Cain
An Atlanta business woman has come forward claiming she had a 13-year sexual relationship with GOP presidential candidate Herman Cain.
MyFOX Atlanta reports that “over the Thanksgiving weekend, FOX 5 senior I-Team reporter Dale Russell sat down with Ginger White, who had an amazing story to tell.”
“It was pretty simple,” White said. “It wasn’t complicated. I was aware that he was married. And I was also aware I was involved in a very inappropriate situation, relationship.”
Even before White’s story was known to the public, Mr. Cain went on CNN today and announced there would be another claim of infidelity made against him. He went on record denying the most recent allegations that had not been made yet.
Here’s an excerpt of a statement released by Mr. Cain’s Atlanta attorney Lin Wood today. The statement all but concedes that Mr. Cain was involved in a sexual relationship with Ms. White.
I have highlighted the key words in bold for emphasis.
This is not an accusation of harassment in the workplace – this is not an accusation of an assault – which are subject matters of legitimate inquiry to a political candidate. Rather, this appears to be an accusation of private, alleged consensual conduct between adults – a subject matter which is not a proper subject of inquiry by the media or the public. No individual, whether a private citizen, a candidate for public office or a public official, should be questioned about his or her private sexual life. The public’s right to know and the media’s right to report has boundaries and most certainly those boundaries end outside of one’s bedroom door.
Such a shame. I really had hopes that he would be a contender for U.S. President Barack Obama.
Twitter FAIL: Rev Run’s Son JoJo Defends His Manhood
Rev Run’s son JoJo Simmons found out the hard way not to DM females on social networking websites without checking out their stats first or at least asking his boys who already ran up in her to verify her equipment.
A tranny sent a video to Worldstar Hip Hop claiming JoJo was open to a down low relationship. The tranny said JoJo knew it wasn’t a biological female, and to prove it she gave out JoJo’s personal cell phone number and provided private text messages.
JoJo, who probably can’t afford a publicist, immediately took to his Twitter page to dispute the allegations and to defend his manhood, which is currently in jeopardy.
We believe him because no industry man could be that stupid.
