Taye Diggs Son is Light, Bright and Damn Near White
Babies, Congratulations, News, Taye Diggs, The Swirl
Posted by Bossip Staff
A picture of Taye Diggs son has finally surfaced. Flip the hood to see the product of a swirl lovefest.
Taye and his wife Idina Menzel welcomed their son Walker Diggs 2 weeks ago and already have him in the limelight. We know the baby is half white but we thought Taye’s swirl of dark chocolate would give him a little bit more color.

if the child’s hair doesnt even have a bit of curl to it as he grows or if his skin doesnt darken a tad, then maybe a DNA is needed. Sorry no way she could get pregnant by a man that dark and the child is as white as her.

People stop. The kid was just born, I have seen black kids who look like that at birth, its not that crazy, let that kid grow up and how many times do people have to be taught this, that you cant just add the two parents color to get the color the child will be, its not simple math, genetics is a much more complicated affair.

You people are nuts. He is clearly a mixed baby and who cares what color he came out??? This is THE most racist website ever.
Erin
9/16/09, 14:37:pm
That is his baby. Idina isn’t cheating on her husband. And we know black babies can be born light as hell and darken up. I am sure baby Walker will as well. And it looks like he has a head full of curls. Adorable.
Taye and Idina look really happy. Good for them. I wish them nothing but the best with their new addition.

9/16/09, 14:39:pm
That baby will darken up….TRUST
so what

Thats why blacks have kids with whites, they come out exotic with fair skin.I am black, but I MADE my kids white, by marrying and having kids outside, just saying.

Seriously, folks? My dad’s about as dark as Taye, and my mom’s so light-skinned, I didn’t realize she was black until I was about six. I was about as light as Taye and Idina’s baby, and my hair was practically bone straight. You have to remember that there’s nothing “fully-formed” about a baby the moment they come out da womb. It took a while, but I eventually got darker, and the hair got kinkier. People need to stop paying attention to movies where babies get birthed, thinking the child gon come out as dark as they’ll be their whole loves. Now newborn baby in a movie or television is actually a newborn. More like a three to six month-old.

Give the baby a few months and watch his color change…he will be looking like a sweet lil Brownie in a NY min…..It is very common for Black or Biracial babies to come out lightskinned..and then darken up…what’s the big deal? and who cares what color the baby is…he is healthy and they are happy.
Oh Well...

My Brother kid with a PURE WHITE Russian get a tan.In fact the baby got that Brazillian look going a complete heart breaker if I have ever seen one.Naw, this is not Taye’s baby. OMG, Wat a joke. I never laugh so hard in my life. Even if the child is Taye Diggs, this poor sod will have some much problems. He will look like Wentworth Miller and have so many issues… This Ladies white gene’s strong. omg, I am still laughing…Its like the death of the BLACK man.

My brother is about Taye’s complexion and his wife is right. Both of their sons look completely white – one if 18 months and the other is 6 months. the 18 month old has curly hair but looks white and the 6 month old doesn’t really hve enough to tell if it will be curly. Sometimes some genes take over – for my sister-in law and a good friend those Irish and German genes dominate even of black genes except for some curly hair. A light baby doesn’t mean she cheated. I wish them lots of love and happiness!

As soon as he ask for a blood test, problem will surface in the relationship.

I KNEW THE BABY WOULD BE THAT LIGHT. not a surprise to me. Expand your minds people.
Ya’ll (black folk) kill me with trying to decipher a person by the skin tone. WE are the most colorful people on the planet. Now it’s a surprise to ya’ll because the baby is light-skinned? GIMME a break. The dad is charcoal so the baby has got to be charcoal too huh? LOL.
Look up Taye on Morphthing.com… you can morph an image of what your child would look like it Taye was the father, upload your picture (especially if you’re a brown to dark-skinned person) then come back and let us know what color your child was…. Mine’s lacked color too, with gray eyes and blondish hair and I have a carmel complextion.

I am sure his mother will keep him on the beach, you know – to give him some “color” – that will prove that he has some “black” in him.
Erin
9/16/09, 15:29:pm
Turns out? It is their child. Why people got to have a conspiracy theory? He is light because he was born 2 weeks ago and he is biracial. Give him some time to be in the sun and let the pigmentation settle in.
I don’t know why people think black and white automatically makes caramel. It doesn’t work that way.
Truth
9/16/09, 15:35:pm
The pigmentation is embedded within.
Taye is not the father!
Taye is just as black and Kimora’s current husband. Their baby came out “dark” and that was his first born child.
Taye – go get a blood test.

This is the hypocrisy of Bossip everyone criticizes this website about. Bossip, Bossip, Bossip-you need to FORCE your WRITERS AND/OR JOURNALISTS to disclose who he/she is. This is not journalism at all, but you all make it out to be and it is insulting to anyone who reads it. I do not want to hear a thing about it being entertainment; entertainment is taken too seriously by certain people more than education. or sound financing to retire. Bossip, as long as you keep this racist recipe going, you will always be the ones who just don’t get it; nor will you ever know when to shut up. Who cares how light the baby is? Who cares if his wife is not as dark as he is? Bossip-you are the reason racism exists. It is not biologically ANY SUCH THING AS RACE-our genes from our parents is what makes us the way we look. There is no gene that is singularly to only a certain group of people from a nation-it is how our bodies respond to climate control over time. I really wish whoever works for Bossip would take their ignorant selves back to college and take a race relations cl***** and a gender equality cl***** as soon as possible to learn these things.

And Kimora is BLACK and Asian. Idina is WHITE. Are you really comparing their genetics? REALLY?
I think Walker had a little more of a chance of coming out light. Just like Kimora’s girls don’t really look alike, with one carrying the Asian side more. But she is still Russell’s kid.
Or you think she stepped out too?

9/16/09, 15:50:pm
It’s the same way some of you think Prince, Paris and Blanket are not really Michael’s biological kids because their faces seem to not look the same, and they seem too light? What kind of backwards racist crap is that? First of all if you want to see if those are Michael’s kids-use the RIGHT METHODOLOGY for your comparison-take his childhood pictures and match that to each of the kids. Prince overwhelming favors Michael Jackson, and even is starting to show signs of Vitiligo in his hands. Paris favors Debbie Rowe, but she also favors the women in the Jackson clan (Katherine, Rebbie, Latoya BEFORE plastic surgery and Janet). Paris has blue eyes from the genes of Debbie AND Michael because Joe Jackson has blue eyes (I bet some of you didn’t know that). Blanket is Prince’s twin-he favor Michael, too, and has Michael’s shy qualities.
My point is-before you start to bash and hate on people-learn the facts, first.
I will say that if Beyonce did something that made sense to me, I would not be so hard on her. The things I say about her is critique-I love her and respect her. I also think Beyonce cheats herself and her fans by always using sex to sell records. I think if Beyonce lost the lacefront wig, her fan would STILL LOVE HER, and MAYBE MORE HER SHOWING HER REAL HAIR.In some ways-Beyonce is kinda like Michael-she always wants to be perfect; but Michael even got real and admitted he’s human, and he’s not perfect. If Beyonce admitted her flaws (not just in her songs) I will have tons more respect for her music. I respect Beyonce, but not her music.

Michael married that woman, who use to be his nurse.

No, it isn’t that serious, but you cannot keep saying the same thing over and over again and think it’s truth. Prove it. Did TMZ post a DNA test? If so, what diagnostic people signed off on it? When was the test performed? Also, if those aren’t Michael’s kids, why hasn’t Debbie come forward to claim them knowing how screwed up Joe Jackson is?
Erin
9/16/09, 16:02:pm
Michael could be those kids biological father. It doesn’t matter because all that matters is that he was their DADDY. He was the one who sang them to sleep, kissed their cries away, and made them feel loved.
All that other ***** is null and void.
it's me
9/16/09, 16:03:pm
The reason I say those are Michael’s kids is because he said they were-why would he lie about that? No other father has come forward to claim those kids at all-because they can’t-those kids are Michael’s.
I want you to watch 2 videos on youtube.com:

If Prince is not Michael’s son, why does he have signs of Vitiligo in his hands?

Ignorant! He is a biracial child AND he is only 2 weeks old. He will most likely get a little darker as he gets older and if he does not WHO FRIGGIN CARES. Again I say PURE IGNORANT. I swear Bossip sometimes you guys are disgusting. He is a beautiful child.

How many siblings did Michael have?
How many were born with Vitiligo?

TMZ wasn’t the only site who validated the truth in regards to Michael’s children.
Michael placed an emphasis on his estate being turned over to his “biological” children.
He knew that many people were after him for what he was worth.
I am not going to ping pong the subject regarding Michael’s children.

9/16/09, 16:12:pm
That is his baby. I’m sure that child will darken up some as he gets older. But then again, look at Mariah Carey. She is biracial (although she rarely talks about it) and she is very fair skinned with fine hair. Black and bi-racial babies come in all shades. We need to stop the ignorance. Everyone is not *****ting themselves out on their hubands. Sheesh!

9/16/09, 16:13:pm
No, I am a fully developed adult, and I do my research to know what I am talking about. If it makes you feel better to say I am stupid without proof, go ahead, but I guarantee that you cannot provide proof to refute what I said, as can anyone because most people, maybe you too are to lazy to do research-you would rather believe negative things about people than find out the truth-but you have a bad attitude when people respond to rumors and lies about you. Now, the only proof I have for my claims are youtube.co videos-but google.com provides pictures that can be a third party source to either prove or disprove my claims. There is no harm in actually learning something, but most of you are too lazy to do that-you have to be spoon fed brain cells if that possible, and you criticize others for knowing more than you do.
Here’s a quick question; if you think I am stupid, why are responding to me? Exactly what does that make you, wise guy? I respond because I can give a response-whether I do know or I don’t know.

Ok, then name the other websites, Truth. I bet that those websites piggybacked off TMZ.com; nevertheless TMZ doesn’t have a valid DNA test, and if they do, it’s fake. I have looked at TMZ about this thing, and found their story fishy because they have gotten other things like this WRONG.

____________________________________________________
Ummm…**looking back up at the pic**
Taye d@mn sho’ aint stick together with us….so sticking together is not what he is about. He wanted a light baby, so we are commenting on how light he is…
Sadly, and it is VERY sad, the color of your skin still matters in 2009. I truly hope we will overcome someday…but right now, the white people are scared that we have a black president…and sh*t looks worst for race relations.

Maybe if they weren’t bombarded with messages that embracing both sides isn’t an option. Mixed kids wouldn’t feel that selfhate. It’s a cycle people lets squash it.

That doesn’t mean jack — I have a niece who was very light skin until whe was about eight years old.
Now she is a nice brown skin — genetics are
unpredictable as hell.
One of my aunt’s cl***** mates is married to a white guy. They have three kids — skin tones from vanilla
to medium brown.
_____________________________________________________
I am caramel and my husband is a little lighter, but my daughter came out d@mn near white, with blonde hair and blue eyes (neither one of us have blonde hair or blue eyes)…so genes are a MF!!
As you stated now, she is browner – like Beyonce complexion which is normal for a black girl, her hair is more red than blonde but her eyes will still turn blue from time to time. But when she was young they would be blue 24×7

@ Back on My Swag.
When I said we clearly need to stick together I meant figuratively, as a people. Not literally. Who Taye or anyone else chooses to date, marry, have children with is their business. My reference was to the comments about the child, who is one of us…
Enough people hate on us, why do we hate on each other as well…was my point.

There are a lot of ignorant people on this site i see. Obviously the baby is light because he is mixed. Just because his father is dark doesn’t mean he have to come out crispy like him. His skin will probably darken only a tad bit because keep in mind idiots his mother is WHITE!!!!

9/16/09, 17:21:pm
This site and lots of people that read this site are ignorant!! Im sure the coloring will come in when he gets a little older. Plus..it doesn’t matter how dark one person is! I’ve seen 2 dark parents have a very light skinned baby..so yall need to educate yourselves before you come up with BS!

9/16/09, 17:41:pm
That’s what so many people think. They think that when a dark skinned Black man gets with a white woman the baby is going to come out caramel, well sometimes ie.(in this situation) that’s not the case. Especially nowadays, a lot of mixed children are being born and remaining pale even when the father is dark.

I cant believe how ignorant people are. Did they teach genetics at your highschools? The baby is a new born. He comes from an interracial couple. It’s not like mixing colors in a gl***** fools! He could look like a white boy…or grow to be darker! I was born white with straight hair…now I’m dark brown with kinky curly hair! My mom is light (mixed) and my father is dark! I look exactly like my mom and have my father complexion and eyes! You guys crack me up!!!

It’s not strange for a baby of color (or mix for that matter) to be born pale. Look at the baby picture after you born, I mean nearly straight out of the womb, and see how many of you were actually brown. My brother is darker than me and he was born extremely pale. I was born caramel and got lighter (not usual for people, lol) the older I got. C’mon people, Bossip is just trying to start some mess because Taye’s wife is white. Then ya’ll going to buy into it.

9/17/09, 14:27:pm
First of all Bossip, the baby is not old enough to even have color yet so for you to go commenting on the baby’s color shows you don’t have ***** else to report on. Furthermore, no DNA test is needed. Look at Garcelle Beauvois from the Jamie Foxx Show. Those are definitely her babies and they show no traces of being African American (at least not to most people). My cousin and her husband are dark and they have bright and yellow children. This shouldn’t even be an issue. Please move on to the next story that is relevant.
paula
9/17/09, 17:11:pm
ya’ll have got to be kiddin’ ??? I’m dark brown and my husband is very dark, yet our kids came out of the womb very light. In fact most of the boys on my side of the family come out bright light only to turn darker as they get older- usu. about 4 or 5 yrs. old. Thats genetics and this story is a non-issue. stop the madness

The ignorance on this site is scary. I can tell many of you went to the worst school districts in the country. DNA is very complicated. It’s not as simple as one would think. There are many factors involved not just Mom and Dad. Grandparents and Great-Grandparents are involved as well. Nonetheless, the baby is beautiful no matter what color he is.

9/20/09, 21:49:pm
ALL OF YOU F***ING IDOTS NEED TO SHUT THE HECK UP! Because
1. Idina wouldn’t have cheated on Taye, have you see pictures of them together? they look at each other as if they have been married for 30 years, if you want a picture of true love look at a picture of them together.
2. they said WAY back in October that they wanted to start having children, Taye even talked about children with her before he would even talk about marriage with her.
3. So what if little Walker doesn’t look like his daddy, I look exactly like my mom and the only trait that I get from my dad is my height and he’s really dark, not as dark as Taye, but still dark. Other than that I look like my mom when she was younger. Plus I am whiter than my mom EVER was.
4. Idina was busy too, she was actually scheduled to be on Private Practice with Taye, and she was, for two episodes too. Idina was actually doing a lot of a tours for her CD and doing special appearances too.
5. Some kids change skin tones, some don’t, I know people who have dark and light parents. One was very light when she was young and now she is very dark. The other person didn’t change one bit, she is still very light.
6. WHO CARES IF THE BABY ISN’T HIS, even though he probably is, BUT TAYE WOULD PROBABLY BE OK WITH IT. He is thrilled that he even has a son. Plus I think that Taye would be above being like that.
7. Not trying to be mean or having any disrespect to Taye or Idina BUT, Does any body remember that Taye did “cheat” on Idina a few years ago? They stayed strong through that, they might be able to stand through it again.
8. Little Walker is Happy, Healthy and beautiful, Does anything else matter?
I am so sick and tired of people being racist towards Taye and Idina and now baby Walker. People need to shut up and know the facts instead of jumping to conclusions. Back off of Taye, Idinaand Walker and go back to har*****ing MJ, MJ’s Family and/or Britney Spears!
By the Way, I wish nothing but the best for Taye, Idina and baby Walker.
