Bossip Exclusive: Remember R&B Singer Monifah… What Happened to Her???
Posted by Bossip Staff
Remember R&B singer Monifah that had a song with the rapper AZ (Damn 2 throwbacks)… Whatever happened to her??? She’s been seen on the scene, and you won’t believe what she’s been up to.
A Bossip spy tells us they recently saw washed up singer Monifah on the scene at a New York bar called Groove. Apparently, Monifah frequents and performs at the bar every Friday night. They even sent us over some footage for your viewing pleasure:
Looks like Monifah still has the pipes to belt out the songs but our spy tells us Monifah gave up the physical pipe for something else, our insider claims Monifah seems to be a lesbian and her lover comes out to support her at the bar also.
Interesting… It’s good to know what she’s doing because we thought she fell off the face of the Earth… Oh wait, she did.

Am I first?
hmm…good look
Bossip is ignant. What’s the story? A singer…is still singing. What does her being a lesbian what to do with anything?
We all knew she was a lesbian.
Love her voice though.

I used to Love her!
This is the norm for most artists. Very few stay on top. A few hit songs, then its over. Glad to see she is alive and well. So what if shes gay. What you do behind closed doors is your business and no one elses.
OLD NEWS KING LATIFA USED TO EAT THAT UP YEARS AGO
Do you really wanna touch it do you really want to ***** with me tonite!!
That was my *****!!!
second, I remember this back in he day
Good for her!She been “out” for years.
What ever happened to other bomb ’90s female singers/groups like:
1. Mokenstef
2. Zhane
3. Adina Howard
4. Changing Faces
5. SWV
6. Allure
7. Total
8. Brownstone
9. Kut Klose

HEY TONI AND MO! LOVE YALL
tb
Do you really wanna touch it do you really want to ***** with me tonite!!
That was my *****!!!

Hey tb
I actually HATED that song. It was like she did a complete 180 degree turn from her regular style. She was too “in the face” with that new image at that time.
She is a lesbo and?
So I guess the “story” is that she is a lesbian. LOL. That’s only natural, all women have at least a little bit of lesbian in them.
I wish they would of some pics with her and her girl. Something tells me Monifah likes stud lesbians tho.
The fact that she’s a lesbian is not news breaking…anyone who enjoyed her back then knew that…she even did a riskay photoshoot with another woman back in the day.
Still love. When she sang Jesus is Mine (believe that’s the title) on her first album, I swear my soul soared.
Good to see her.

Soul-4-Real
What happened to these people?
What really happened to
D’Angelo??
@Infinit45 (I love a women in heels)
3LW didn’t want the “dark butt” (SMH) Naturi in the group. They went on to be Cheetah Girls and Naturi is starting to hit the BIG TIME. She was Lil’ Kim in Notorious and she’s the star in the movie FAME. She can blow both those girls out the water IMO but she needs a makeover. The are calling her the next Whitney Houston. I love Whitney, but I won’t knock her, cause the girl can SING!
Sybil
Foreal
Changing Faces
Kut Klose
I LIKE MONIFAH SHES A REAL SINGER NOT LIKE WHAT WE GOT OUT HERE TODAY.
I love Changing Faces.
I liked Angie Stone as well.
What is you talmbout? I only knew that one song do you wanna touch it?? Lol
twitter.com/lenarockx
I thought she was gay back in the day,if that’s what she likes, more power to her
big surprise here, she’s been hanging out at gay clubs and with gay/lesbian groups for years now
Monifa had that song ‘Touch It’ which sampled ‘White Horse.’ That was the ***** back in the day.

LOVED HER! and this was my FAVORITE song..ooh AZ. This whole era…. My boyfriend at the time hated the song cause I played it so much!!
WTF? Monifah, she has so much talent. I cant even recognize her. … JUST BRING BACK GOOD MUSIC..
POSITIVITY and LIGHT to the WORLD powered by GOD!
@ Cubana
It came out years ago though. As usual Bossip is late on the story.
Sorry Momma!
I Still love Monifah. Touch It was my *****….

Touch It was my ish back in the day!!! I remember I wanted to cut my hair like hers when the bob was hot. Last I heard of her she was kickin it with Queen Latifah…
Bossip – THIS IS OLD NEWS!!!!! She was a lesbian when she first came out. I know, because at the time, I was going to the SAME LESBIAN CLUBS AS HER, QUEEN LATIFAH AND MC LYTE.
Again, YOU’RE LATE WITH THIS STORY!!!!!
or my number one favorite girl who Beyonce obviously studied,

@ Jamaquina.Cubana
I SO hate to burst your bubble – BUT SHE IS A LESBIAN – AND ALWAYS HAS BEEN!!!!!
yah what happened to brownstones i loved grapevine”touch was my song back in the day we used to hit replay till we get the moves right ahhhhh memories
Lesbian, that explains it, I thought she just wasn’t feeling me, (it seemed like she was, at lease in my head, I said all the right things, I was on point, She told me she liked my vibe or something to that effect, but I couldn’t get p***** the hand holding and small talk).
I met her back then and naturally tried to kick it to her,she was on the short side, but hey…
Man I forgot about her, I hope she’s doing well, lesbian or not. Get that money girl.
@Im Just Me
I hear D’Angelo is working on a new album, set to be released in ‘10. So excited.
She was a cool chick, Lesbian,… for real?
They are jammin in that club! I’m most definitely hittin the Groove up when I go to New York next month! Holla!
She is gay , she was in a relationship with Latifah for a long time
Which one is Monifah? The background singer w/ the Mohawk looks like her . . .

If my memory serve me right Monifah been a lesbian since she got rape.
I’m waiting for Another Bad Creation to reunite.
Now why you gotta go and throw that all up into the mix? When did Monifah get raped? You mean by the music industry?
I never knew she was gay! Talk about being on the late show!!!!
Who cares. I actually miss hearing her, she has an awesome voice, and she didnt really get her dues. I own all her records. Another slept on artist…Lil Mo.

Who’s Monifah? Never heard of it…And there should be laws preventing welfare mamas from naming their ***** children. Who in the hell would name their mistake, MONIFAH?
Willona
And don’t forget the greatest female rap group of all time: L’TRIMM. Their presence in the rap game has been sorely missed.
WE LIKE THE CARS, THE CARS THAT GO BOOM!
WE’RE BUNNY AND LE TIGRE, AND WE LIKE DA’ BOOM!
Wow – L’Timm, LOL!
heard this already. Bossip yall are so late.
Started reminiscing about the days when music was actually good. That song was so hot!!
Yeah she use to hang with “king” Latifah back in the day when “King” was rolling with a Puerto Rican female. So this news is really ancient!! This is some dinosaur ‘ish!! Slow news day, huh???
I’m waiting for Another Bad Creation to reunite.

What happened to Subway??
WHEN PEOPLE HAD TALENT.
Why Bossip? Why? what do you all get out of being this mean(and lame cause this story is old)?
bossip you guys are mad late with this story…i hear about this like last month from another site
AZ was so yummy! Monifah was hot, when she was out… her sexuality is her own…
she a dyke, thats old news.
@ poloman85
bossip you guys are mad late with this story…i hear about this like last month from another site
I knew this years ago
mo who?
I am a same gender loving individual (lesbian) as well.
Anyways, since you all are reminiscing on artists from the past what about…
Rome- “I Belong To You”.
I use to listen to this song constantly! And I am listening to it now.
Glad to see she is doing well. As for Mint Condition, I’ve seen them 6 times in the last 2 years. Concerts are always sold out. Check Tickemaster. They are currently on tour with Eric Bennet and Ledisi. They give a great show. They have also put out 2 cd’s and a DVD in the last 2 years. As you can tell I’m a big fan.
1. Mokenstef

*****************Damn, you just took me back. Zhane was my 2nd favorite next to En Vogue. Those girls could sing. Brownstone could also sing but there last 3 singles sound just a like.
I still listen to her Mahogany Album. Monifa can sing but poison?
@Tara G.
i loved Rome:)that was my song
i still got Monifah’s tape…yes i said tape
♥♥♥LESBIANS!!!!♥♥♥
Bossip is soooooooooo rude OMG I remember when yall used to give everyone a far shake but now some of these writers of these stories are PURE haters!!! I can tell when some with an actual 4 year degree or someone with someone who isnt ignorant posts these stories and than I can tell when some of yall online college reporters do it!! I need the names of these people that are writing these stories so I can be on their *****es and when they try to do those few and far between celebrity interviews I can call them out and tell people like Nia Long you are really a HATER!! Waive at the Bossip Haters yall!!
What happened to AZ? Did he die?
No seriously. Does anybody know?
What the hell happened to:
DeAngelo
Jon B
Joe…
The question is, “What the hell happened to good R&B ?
Everything they put out now either has some rapper in it, is really hip hop or pop, or just plain immature. There’s nothing wrong with singing about sex,(the Isleys did it well for years)but you don’t have to be so damn vulgar. Bring back the baby making music!
@3LuvMe*
o yea memba that othr song she had *singing* “And if tha sun dont shine, you brighten up ma day, and if tha rain shud fall it never seem to fall ma way, and wen its cold outside your there to keep me warm, and wen im feelin blu u make me feel so strong” anyone kno tha name of that? its time for me 2 dwnld sum throbaks!!
—————————————————–
The name of that song is “You”… my fave from her… She also has a bad song called “you don’t have to love me”, if you’re gonna be downloading anyway
@temi – AZ is alive and well, and still FOINE… that’s a good lookin’ man… lol…
Don`t be calling my Baby Monifah washed up just because her music isn`t on BET or the Radio,she is still one of the greatest ever without her there is no Beyonce.
Everyone knows Monifa is a lesbian, her & several other blk woman entertainers use to frequent PEANUTS a female gay club in Hollywood, ca. WHO CARES she sings beautifully!!!!!
Bossip you all some prejudice mf her singing dont have anything to do with who she *****n luv!!!!SMFH
And for the record most girls have better and cleaner pipes then men I would know I have many!!!! So she might not have traded in the pipe!!!LOL by the way Im a hot ***** (Stud)!!
I’ve seen her at Grooves and she still sounds better than most of the female singers out there who are popular. But what’s the story, she’s still singing, she still sounds great. So nothing happened to her.
Does it really matter that she’s gay?
She sounds great.
DEATH TO GAYS AND LESBIANS
Groove is my spot. I first saw Monifah there like 5 years ago, but she was just there supportin her girl every now and then (the manly lookin gay chic that’s singing). That’s when I knew she was gay. Then I started seeing her with Theresa Weatherspoon at WNBA games. I was still a little groupie though cause I used to love Monifah.
SHe is thick as hell.
Mint Condition still tours and they will be in my area again in December. They still sell out. Now where is Donnell Jones????
What’s the big deal about her being a lesbian??? I am a lesbian and I love my woman!! She is sweet, loving and she is all about me!! I love the fact that more sisters are admitting that they are gay black females. It is an inspiration for those young sistas that can’t help who they are and whom they love. I fought it for 31 years, and now I’m as happy as I have ever been!!!!
Stop being juvenile! It was once thought that blacks and whites marrying was an abomination!! Pull it together my black community!! We should love each other. It’s all a family affair!
Not news….but it’s nice to see she’s still working. The crowd was having a blast. I’ll have to check that place out.
At least she’s still singing…never knew she was a lesbian tho. I guees I was too young to notice all that, lol. I just played her single the other day…not I Miss You, “You”, that was the shiz back then.
Umm. Yeah. I’ve been there and scene that girl perform. That is not her. Maybe she was in the audience, but that is not her singing. Idiots.
monifah being a lesbian is old news.
who cares… really
wow . . . don’t she look like Pam from Mart-ennnnn???!!
Infinit45
If I’m not totally wrong 3lw at least broke up. Blaque broke up too when Natina quit the group. They had a new member for a while though. Her name was Erica. Anyway, I’ve heard some rumours that blaque is working on a new album, but I don’t know if it’s true. I also think En vogue still did some shows some time ago, not regularly though. I know Terry at least released a solo album at some point and dawn was in a group called lucy pearl.
