Apologies for the slow posts today but I had a situation I had to handle expeditiously.
Anyway, today I received an email from an irritated reader who disputed the observations I made in my post on Sanaa Lathan and Taraji P. Henson yesterday.
She claims Sanaa is dating NFL player Adewale “Wale” Ogunleye and they have been together for years.
Hi Sandra-
I saw your article about Sanaa Lathan & Taraji P. Henson. I just wanted to send in a correction about Sanaa because you stated that she hasn’t dated anyone since Denzel and that info is EXTREMELY false. She is currently dating Chicago Bears #93 Defensive End—Adewale “Wale” (pronounced Wa-lay) Ogunleye—and has been for the past 3-4years.

I believe it… they been saying that was her man for years. I doubt she goes that way.
This is true. That’s why I didn’t even bother to post on the Sanaa/Taraji post. He plays for the the Chicago Bears.
I wonder why we only see them together when it’s someone’s birthday? Anyhoo, I think they make a good looking couple.
Didn’t she mention that when Chelsey Lately asked her if she was dating Regina Hall? Maybe she just a freak, like the rest of Hollywood or sum’n…
Question for anyone who can answer – how did the ‘dating Denzel’ rumor come about; was it something beyond the movie they did together?

Yep. Notice how the “unsolicited” friend did not correct the Denzel rumor.
@readtheblog
I don’t remember how that one got started. At one point I heard he was sleeping with both Sanaa and Eva Mendez while they were filming Out of Time. I don’t understand who that one was just swept under the rug especially when she got pregnant. Has it even been confirmed who fathered her baby?
Yup its true she is spotted here in the Chi quite often. She has also done interviews and stated how she cooks for him and loves the city
Oh and HE left a close friend of mine he was dated to be with Sanaa… just poof, gone!
smh
Football players are forever being linked to actresses. Their money (football players) are too funny for my taste. (Not that any of them are getting @ me, lol) I would have to do like Mrs. Snow and get me a basketball player.
Look @ Lisa woo she is the bread winner in her house.
Sanaa is one of my favorite actresses. Best movie of all time IMO is “Love & Basketball”. Can watch it over and over again
She looks trife though so I suggest no one leave her next to your man
Windycitychick,
I think SOME athletes (well anyone in the spotlight( will drop the girl that has been down with them before anyone has ever heard of them for the ones who wouldn’t look at them twice had they not been the athlete, singer, rapper, celebrity whatever. Good girls get dropped when men are put on. Ask Kanye’s ex. We’ve seen it too many times.
Sidebar, she has a child???????????????????
missmiami,
Me too! Love and Basketball is one of my all time favs. I fell in fantasy love with Omar after that movie. They were great! It’s not hard to see them hooking up while filming that movie.
I think I remember seeing her REALLY pregnant. Someone correct me if I wrong…I’ve been wrong before but I thought she was pregnant a few years back.

I’ve been wrong before. You’re starting to sound like Sandra. LOL. I wish I knew which one you guys are talking about was pregnant. Was it 2007 that Eva had a coke binge after losing a baby and before her visit to rehab.
Boooo…I like the visual of Sanaa Lathan and Taraji P. Henson being a couple…..but that’s just the lust in me…..they are both extremely gorgeous and intoxicating and The Doc Jam enjoys watching them on screen..
That was a rumor that Sanaa was pregnant. Love and basketball and waiting to exhale will always be the best movies ever.
@Anna…haha let me stop it then.
I didn’t hear about Eva, I heard and could have sworn that I saw Sanaa looking pregnant. It was right around the time they were saying she and Denzel had an affair. That was part of the rumor of her and Denzel I guess. I don’t know why but that was always 1 rumor I believed to be true. Sanaa got with Denzel.
1) DocJam, you from the Town?
2) What’s a male beard called y’all?
3) for all you astrology buffs, Mercury is supposedly in retrograde. that’s why everything is going haywire in your lives. Don’t make any new big decisions, especially contracts/job changes etc, if you can prevent it. the good news is that it’s over on 2/1. (via my psychic auntie)
4) Ginuwine’s hair grease! (it deserves a shout out)

I believe him and Sanaa also. Funny how he and his wife are always together looking happy. He is getter older now and has not had a big movie in a minute. His wife is happy because she finally feels she has him to herself.
Sandra you are playing I said yesterday her boyfriend was a cute NFL player..lol You did not need me or the loyal reader to tell you such. You are not slipping im sure.
The pic of denzel sitting at the inauguration like 3 hours early is among the best pics I’ve seen of the event.
I don’t think for one minute that Sanaa is gay, but I don’t think this is her man either. They were seen on a couple of dates, but they don’t even do that anymore. They definataly ain’t been together no 3 – 4 years.
@Shauny Kanye just said in an interview that Alexis was a nice sweet girl and refused to say anything negative about her. I feel he said everything in his new cd so whats left to say. I liked them together.
@intown
Tell you auntie thanks! However, I do not play with psychics lol I believe some people can see stuff for real.
@Bird It has been a min at least 2 if I had to guess. She has said thats her man before in essence.
@Bird
Like Windycity said she is spotted with him in Chicago on a regular so they still may be kicking it. I don’t know about for 3 to 4 years but it’s been over a year. Football season has just wrapped up just over a month ago for the Bears (busters) so maybe that’s why they weren’t out as much.
@Anna
Don’t Denzel’s wifey have them “beat a hoe down” look about her? Michelle O. has that same look to me too.
I think she knows that Denzel steps out and may be one of those “you better not let me see it or hear about it wives”. I don’t remember him ever speaking on the rumor, it was all Sanaa. Paulette was probably like you better tell this biotch to squash this before I go see her.
In Sanaa’s pregnancy defense, I think sista girl just got a heavy gut – she’s never looked slim to me – ever. BUT, rumors are rumors for a reason, huh?

Paulette has had that look for years, and I know they had to come to some understanding. We know she knew what was going on. Not sure why ppl don’t take Michelle more serious. We are going to see her true colors real soon. Let some skank hit on her man or anyone mess with her daughters, it’s on. LOL.
I think Sanaa is thick and as always been but I don’t ever remember her having a tummy, gut, belly etc. She hip, butt n thighs. I think she goes up and down 10lbs like most of us do or maybe thats just me..lol
@ shuny I believe Kanye and Alex was a part of a blind item on pance this week. Said (if its him) that she had a man in jail that was after him and he had to pay off the goons that were going to rip his head off. & that’s why they broke up (if it was about him and you believe those blind items)
yeah, i did hear that sanaa was dating this dude…but not for no 3-4 years. her and denzel never had an affair and she does not have a baby. don’t beleive everything you read on the web.
I wansn’t talking about Alexis, I’m talking about that girl from Chicago.
SIS she a lesbian my gaydar never lies
who cares…
Wale is not dating her… rather he’s not dating her exclusively.
Sanaa swings whichever way the wind blows if you listen to gossip bloggers. Apparently she was on and off with Regina Hall for years, at one point she even referenced living with her “roommate” in an Essence article.
either way, you know she ain’t been right since Omar suggested she get an abortion, then turn around and get Keyshia pregnant then marry her. Sandra you need to leave her alone.
@intown, a male beard should be called a weave!
