If you are a Kenneth “Babyface” Edmonds fan, you may recall the gossip and innuendoes swirling around the unlikely marriage between the singer/songwriter and Tracey Edmonds, a video model who set Babyface’s loins aflame when they met on the set of his music video “Whip Appeal”.
Industry insiders whispered that Tracey was nothing but a gold digger who was only out for Babyface’s money. But Tracey soon put the gossip to rest when she achieved success as an award-winning film producer.
The couple quickly became parents to sons Brandon and Dylan. But their marriage soon crumbled and Tracey filed for divorce in 2005.
Now, 23 years after their fateful meeting, Babyface, 54, admits he was never really in love with Tracey, 46.
“The reality is that there was a connection that wasn’t really there,” Babyface said during a sit-down interview with Oprah. “We loved each other but we weren’t really in love with each other. It was more the idea of it falling apart and me holding onto the image of what I thought we were.”
He added: “I don’t feel like we were supposed to be together forever. I’m okay with it because I think she’s okay.”
Watch the interview below.
Tell us how you really feel!
BOOM GOES THE GAYNOMITE
TAKEN he already stopped playing
You know he is *air quotes* injured right now. Wait until he gets traded and then they have to move. She can’t lug those kids across country out of their dream home. Remember they are building it 
since 2011

“The reality is that there was a connection that wasn’t really there,” Babyface said during a sit-down interview with Oprah. “We loved each other but we weren’t really in love with each other. It was more the idea of it falling apart and me holding onto the image of what I thought we were.”
But I do respect his creative side.

What kind of man
Would leave you standing in the cold
Must’ve been a silly one
To sacrifice a pot of gold
You’re the kind of woman
That needs a man that’s always there
It’s not that you require a lot
Just need some tender love and care
I give good love
I’ll buy your clothes
I’ll cook your dinner too
Soon as I get home from work
I’ll pay your rent
Your faithful lover
Soon as I get home, soon as I get home from work

Thanks for that list..
You did that !
Tracy and Eddie were never Legally married. Plus during the “ceremony” in Bora Bora. His mama was trying to fight Tracy, so it was doomed to NOT EVER become legal.

And you know what if Kandi keeps going with writing for Country musicians she will get paid. People don’t realize that R&B and Country have so many similarities that she will rack up with her catalog. She should def stick to writing and she needs to get Q Parker back in the studio.

Yall can talk about Jahnnie if you want but that there you go from that Mo Money soundtrack. That whole soundtrack was good tho. That’s up there with the Above the Rim soundtrack for me. Oh and the Love Jones and Boomerang soundtrack.

I always thought and with some insider whispers He was in love with Pebbles too shy to say and then when he married Tracey many gasped bc she closely resembled Pebbles. So…… we know how that goes in Hollywood. Never confirmed but I can see this. Maybe Oprah didn’t have that TEA because that would have been a DEAD RINGER question to ask and see his reply.

WhT was the purpose of him even saying this.
I remember Babyface said years ago that it was a mistake to get married and immediately share all of your assets…he said that in an interview, which made me think that Tracy was definitely a gold digger, even if it was in a small capacity. No one is discounting her talents or what she’s done for herself, but she seems very opportunistic and goes after what she wants without getting distracted by things like love or feelings…

Oh ok…i’ve heard of that play now i know what the plot is at least..and yes jenny is very loud at least in the commercial
Unshakable
Concerning Babyface’s comments, I call BULLSHIT.
All those love songs he made in the 90s…homeboy was inspired by someone :someone:
I think he is still salty
Am I the onliest one who rarely measures not a dayum thing? And if I DO measure something… like with an actual measuring cup…I always add in extra? Cause I am a nigra?
Ok. Just checking.
@Jmo –
Yes, I keepn you lifted. Pray for the cook and those that are “blessed” to eat your cooking. In Jesus Name I pray

So I was eating figs yesterday and this morning I juiced and for lunch I had a smartone well my stomach startedcd to perculate so I went to the 4th floor cause no one works up there. Well after about 5 or so mins I come out and the floor is dark I hear someone coming so I tried to hide. It was a sprite man and he was farting and holding his azz. OMG, when he saw me he turned pale. He was saying sorry so many times…All I could do was say was ‘you should have heard me five mins ago’

Both of yous is nasty, but at least yall did it in private.

I measure but I add extra too @Dub.
I’s a nigra too. :off topic: Was watching 4 with the kid and they said nigra and he looked like 
then I had to explain to him what it means and why he shouldn’t say it 
Babyface Admits He Was Never In Love With Tracey Edmonds
_________________
Yet he let her make his azz pack up and move from Atlanta to Los Angeles in the mid-90’s. That move was when his career went South and L.A. Reid’s kicked into overdrive. But then again, I heard quite a few folks were happy that Tracey left the A.
Of course, that was in the 90’s when I was still young so who knows if she was really the bitch that she was portrayed to be.
Dear @gypsyeyes,
I’m trying to work, eat, and lurk and your font is really killing me in this post. #noshadeatall Please keep it up so that I may have something to read during this meeting.
I will keep that toilet in prayer cause with all those 50-11 cheeses… someone’s anus will need some prayers also. Just buy 2 can’s of money house blessing and leave ’em on the back of the toilet.
@jMO – No! They must be sent directly to me, as to ensure they are from you.
Professor will you my info.

The best cooks usually don’t measure..
Me? i have to measure
Toni Braxton is always available and they seem mighty flirty with each other.
Plus Babyface used to have a Green BMW 7 Series back in the day and folks who worked at Phipps Plaza apparently used to HATE to see that car in valet.
Again, these are words from the streets. You know growing up in Atlanta you hear a lot.
I measure only if it is something new I am cooking. Like I said the other day… I used to get PIST with my granny when she would be like “add a lil bit…” or add a panch…LADY wtf is THAT? HOW MUCH??? And SHE would get mad BYKE with ME. Like HEFFA IDK…a LIL BIT!!! It took me YEARS to understand what she meant. YEARS. Cooking is a feeling. When it is enough in there…you will know.

@Dub, My FIL had the nerve to a actually e-mail me a fuggin recipe that had a dab of this and a pinch of that, I was like
How the hell am I pose to know da heyul you mean man. 
I learned tho. 
I learned to cook from my mama’s best friend. Not that my mama couldn’t cook she just never showed me. That lady would cook breakfast everyday around 11am. She slept late. She would make t-bone steaks, cheese eggs, homemade biscuits, grits and fresh coffee(she would grind it herself). There would be days I would call in to work. I have never seen a measuring cup in her house.

My grandma’s was the same. Yes, it’s a feeln,,,and you gotta taste as you go.
The only thing I can’t duplicate is her cakes, Lawd Have Mercy Sweet Baby Jose. That woman could bake the hell out of some cakes….I remember when she got up in age and she accidently used cornmeal instead of flour. The fuggn cake got fought over that afternoon. Cornmeal cake with chocolate icing.
I can’t stand you @69…
and some clown in my house be drinking out the fuggn measure cup.
THE GOOD ONE too. The thick glass one. Bye Ashy.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
OH GOD. THIS IS MY UNCLE. When he lived with my moms (he has lived with us ALL at some point) this fugga would mix alcoholic beverages in the mixing cup. And drink them. Add ice. Whole 9. And my MAMA? Has cups and glasses from 1978! WHY you dranking out her Pyrex?
When I was lil I was raised in a 3 family house with my great aunt, grandmother and great grandmother and I swear 4 gawd I don’t know who cooked worse.
who measuring cup still got numbers on it?
oh i see yall fancy.
Make sure y’all wash them green good. I remember when I was you we had a party for my grandma and my cousin cooked greens…
Them thangs tasted like she ain’t even rinse em’ off! Took a bite a swear fo gawd I felt like a was eating sand. 
My ghetto azz mama:
Washes out every jar and uses them as drinking glasses ie; mayonaisse, relish, peanut butter and pickle.
Will wash out a milk carton cut a while in it and place all the cot dayum plastic bags from kroger in it.
She will wrap all the metal trays in the burners of stove with tin foil to keep them from getting dirty
Will take one of those jars that she has washed and put a plant in it ASAP and dispay in your window.
@Dub, My FIL had the nerve to a actually e-mail me a fuggin recipe that had a dab of this and a pinch of that, I was like How the hell am I pose to know da heyul you mean man. I learned tho.
We just making the WHOLE drive there then. Cause this mess? A lil bit of heavy cream…. My sister made a trial run a week before using the recipe of what granny sent…gave us the runs
^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This is like the handwritten shat my granny MAILED me one year after she got too up in age in meet us halfway. She would meet halfway between Raleigh and Alabama (Greenville, SC right off I-85) and give us our holiday food. Just heat and eat. Me and my sister. Well around 1992-93 she said she got too old make the drive. So she gonna mail us the recipe to her potato casserole. Forget you lady.
@Dubb & Gpsy – Yeah, that shiat irks my soul. Like why the fugg do I need to hide my measuring cups? I know who it is… The lil 12 year old, that and essprso cups. Umm why is you pouring a speck of water in that. I just stop complaining. I think I may clown his lil arse and buy him a measuring cup and get his name put it.
ON bad cooking….Mista be like we can go to your mama’s and eat but lets get there early so you can cook.

I see nothing wrong with what the man said. It is his truth and he responded to a question that was posed during an interview.
You be surprised how many of your spouses may have the same response if posed the same question.

She became all she is because of his money and status, without it she would be working at the makeup counter at Macys.
There was always something weird or insincere about him. So if he did not marry Tracey for love, then does this mean she was his, “beard,” (where a closeted gay man uses a woman to APPEAR straight)???
Right. Like being gay is the only reason a man would marry a woman he wasn’t in love with….
I guess you missed the part about her seeking him out, as well. She was on a mission, but hey, it takes TWO!
