NBA Player Ron Artest has a _____________ Wife
Coupled Up, Guess the..., News, Out and About, Spotted, The Swirl
Posted by Bossip Staff
We always see an NBA player swirlin’ or kickin’ it with a half breed. LA Laker, Ron Artest was spotted walking down the street with his wife. This situation was so special we had to bring it up. Is his wife a Swirler, Half & Half or Pure???
Flip the Lid…
Ron and his wife, Kimsha Hatfield, have been together since 2003 with four kids. It’s good to see somebody from the NBA is staying true!!! Kimsha doesn’t look like she is the one to play with either, like she’ll beat the brakes off Ron if he gets out of pocket.

The intro to this article is so insulting, Bossip – you’re a bunch of half-educated (not talking about college grads, but grade school), misogynistic, ignorant-*****, narrow minded dumbells. This website has gone so far downhill since all of your writers left to go write for TMZ.

Bossip, post some positive, educational stuff on your site and stop posting swirl couples, i’m pretty sure you can come up with some better mess than interacial couples. & white b**** dropping it like their hot.

The problem is that, society is so used to these cookie cutter images of athlete wives and girlfriends that when SOME people see a “regular” looking couple, they question the relationship and make fun of it. SMH!

The writers at Bossip are stuck on race. Wow. It’s not that serious any more. I hope that in 2009, people can date/marry whomever they want to marry. Its crazy to be so concerned about race. I’ve had good relationships with men of all races, so it really doesn’t make a difference.

Honestly, I need bossip to get a grip. A black man is married to an attractive black woman. What is wrong with that? Damn, because he is in the industry he is supposed to be with another race? Bossip is *****ery at it’s finest. I love that image of a black couple TOGETHER.

My kids are bi-racial and i love it. Bossip needs to STFU and get with the times. its about progressing you back*****ward donkeys. ugh

I’m a dark-skinned sista myself, but I’ve never gotten the green eyed goblin when I see a non-Black woman with a Black man, maybe because I’m too busy with my own man (just sayin’…) I love my sistas, but y’all sound bitter as hell when you see somebody swirlin’.

Just a little Google would tell you that Artest was arrested on domestic violence charges with said wife in 2007:
“A Placer County sheriff’s report said Artest grabbed a woman and pushed her down, then slapped her face during an argument. The report said Artest took a phone from the woman the first time she tried to call 911.
When she reached 911, the woman at first complained that Artest was taking a vehicle from the home, according to a recording of the call released by the sheriff’s department. The woman then told a dispatcher that her finger was cut and leg scratched, and that she broke the windshield of the vehicle.

Love that he has a wife and we know what she is!! It’s not Boosip’s fault that alot of black men in entertainment seem to have a criteria for the women they must be with (the color of a brown paper bag or lighter). And yeah, color does matter. Especially when majority of these men dated black women exclusively before they became “celebrities”. I guess now they are “worthy” enough to date other races.

That’s not cute and you should be slapped with some baby powder right about now. You wanna cry racism all the time and then you just reverse the *****. C’mon now… get real!

9/7/09, 13:34:pm
i don’t think she looks “rough” just b/c she’s dark skin ugh i get the point though most atheletes do date everything else but their own race. n just b/c some people’s OPINION is that they shouldn’t or think they’re successful men not just athletes but businessmen etc who seem to disproportionately date outside their race. BTW there will never be just a “mixed” race b/c there are way too many “people” of other races who will NEVER date or have children with black people. It’s not being closed minded to want successful african american men to date successsful african american women if barack can find a michelle so can YOU. like someone commented ur not in the projects anymore so start hanging w/kobe basically ur not broke anymore so need 2 date a black women b like kobe n date outside ur race WTF that shouldn’t be the reason y u date outside ur race. If u choose someone b/c that’s your preference is one thing but some men have misconceptions that by achieving this i am equal to the “man” just b/c u have a white or other wife/gf doesn’t mean someone who doesn’t look at you as your equal will all of sudden start to. Alot times guys say they date white or others b/c their easy to manage or use n black women r difficult ..complex maybe not difficult most women have 1 thing in common we don’t want BS n i think that’s pretty universal. i still think there’s nothing wrong with wanting to preserve black family n black love every1 should have pride for the ethnicity and culture whatever it maybe that diversity makes us beautiflly different n feeling that doesn’t make anyone ignorant n yes it’s 2009 n racism nor hate won’t end anytime soon.

Yes, you are right. The media does not show the black women these guys are married to. Arron Brooks got married a few week ago…where are the photo of that? He is with the Rockets just like Brian Cook is yet you saw Brian’s wedding photos on here! And at the same time, most of the black wives I know don’t care to be plastered everywhere either.

I’m with you on this, bossip is very devisive whats up with all that half breed race baitin talk,I think they are tryin to start some *****. Its possible bossip was created as an experiment to monitor race relations or they may want peoples opinion for marketing purposes. Suspect to say the least.
@Num1dominican
Ok you say she’s is unattractive and looks beastly..but thats by your standards which is probably based on the europeans point of view, I’ll bet you if more superstars and black men in general date or marry a woman like her that would be the standard of beauty. Your negative views of her unattractiveness is a small percentage compared with the mostly positive comments about her looks. Maybe you should stick with your latino chicks if you wanna be critical about pure black beauty.

She is as beautiful as ron artest finds her and thats all that matters. One of the problems is a lot of atheletes like to have trophy wives or girlfriends which usually means light skinned or whites.

There are some extremely ignorant people on this site. “Pretty” or “Ugly” is an opinion, what is “ugly” by your standards maybe beautiful to someone else. The real question though is why you feel you are qualified to so adamantly call somebody ugly when you are hiding behind a computer and *****ody can judge you the way you are judging somebody else.
I am talking especially about the Bossip “writer” who penned this article with that remark about her being “rough”. WOW.

Go ***** yourselves and direct whatever negativity you have in your life towards something postive…like uplifting all African Americans. And FYI…there really are no more pure breeds mfs…everybody has some ***** somewhere within their ancestral heritage. GRRRR.
