Quote of the Day

Posted by Bossip Staff

Brandy revealed some information about why she lied to the world:

Singer Brandy opens up for the first time to Us Weekly about her fake marriage and the “traumatic” car accident that left one person dead.

In 2002, Brandy Norwood announced she’d secretly wed music producer Robert Smith the year before – just four months before giving birth to their baby, Sy’rai, when just 22 years old. The pair even acted as husband and wife on MTV series Brandy: A Special Delivery, which documented their daughter’s birth.

But after calling it quits in 2003, Smith told a radio station the marriage never happened.

“I lied because of the fear of what people would think and the pressure to be a good role model,” Norwood, 29, reveals to Us Weekly in her first interview on the topic.

“Our relationship was very real, we just weren’t legally married,” she adds.

Poor thang had no clue we already knew why she lied. We didn’t believe that whole ‘Moesha’ act for one second and knew those young prep school backs were getting tore up, just like the other girls.

  2. I dont think anyone really cared or ever really believed her after he put her on blast…

    @ Katherine: I don’t think anyone cared before that.

    Dam Brandy. Do you not know what kind of backward debauached community you come from? A community that sees no shame in a pregnant woman with no husband and is quite proud of it? If anything having a husband while pregnant would have been looked down upon by these vandals.

    As a strong indepedent Black woman, I am ashamed that you pretended to have a husband while married. We as strong indepedent black women dont need a man and we certainly dont need a man to raise our kids. We can do it ourselves. Just make sure the governments keeps up with half the rent.

    I swear If that FIVEhead get any bigger….Damn!!! She gonna need a hat on at all times.

  6. Octavia

    I’d respect an un-wed mother more than a bold-faced liar any day.


  7. BRANDY PLEASE

  8. Kigali (Black females defend the weave like their new born!!!)

    @Octavia,

    Un wed mothers are bold- faced liars especially when they insist that they didnt ***** up by getting knocked up. Atleast Brandy knew not having a husband while pregnant was trife.

    OMG you Bossip *****suckers act like yall god himself. let him smite all of ye who have done this same sin.

    Brandy was petrafied because of the image she protected during the Moesha Days. she is NOTHING like her whorish brother Ray-Gay. she is a spirited woman in the grace of god and dont act like yall hoes aint been in love with a mother*****er pretending your married and 5 months later yall so deep into the arguements and fighting.

    another example of prince’s song “lets pretend were married.

    you *****suckers act like yall cant do no wrong. but ooooh let some scandalous ***** pop off on yall and your going to be covering up your face with a blankie.

    You sound like you have some experience and are intelligent, but that may very well have been one of the most ignorant thoughts you allowed to materialize in written form. Don’t be silly; look at the black community as a whole. It’s true that some black women are very strong and do exactly what it is they have to do in order to raise their families, but if you think you don’t need a man to *****ist with child rearing you are sadly mistaken. Study after study has proven that when both a mother and father are involved, a child is statistically more likely to turn out to be a productive member of society. That isn’t something I made up and it isn’t a topic of debate; it’s fact. So, while you may not need a man to raise a child, that child most certainly needs the input of their father to have the best chances of being healthy, through and through. Look at the young ladies whose father’s have been absent and the rate at which they engage in risky behavior, or the self esteem issues they have. We don’t even have to talk about the little boys, because I trust you’ve heard, seen, and read enough about that to understand the effect. I just thought I’d take an opportunity to write directly to you, in a very non-threatening way. I hope you understand. Be cool.

    i love brandy. been a fan from day one. in my opinion brandy or who ever was handling her career at the time is VERY smart. why possible ruin your reputation, put your hard earned money on the line and marry some one who if you marry you will most likely get divorce. case and point BRITANNY SPEARS! shout outs to BRANDY! do yo thang girl lol!

  12. Kigali (Black females defend the weave like their new born!!!)

    I have some respect for Brandy. Atleast she has some shame. Thats the problem with black females today, they have NO SHAME. No concept of honor or shame, everything they do is to be defended no matter how trife it is.

  13. Pynk

    I knew it was fake, he acting shady on that t.v. show. I knew he wasn’t no good. Or her husband!

    @justvisit,

    I would like to introduce you to my friend Sarcasm. Sarcasm meet justvisitin. Justvisitin meet Sarcasm.

  15. blaq,

    Unfortunately she is still trying to hold onto it was a real relationship crap. When he put her on blast, he said he already had a girl and Brandy was the side chick. This was truly the downfall of her career, people would have embraced her for being human.

    So you got knocked up, things didn’t work out, ***** happens. No one wants to be a single mother, but if you are one be the best one you can be.

  16. justvisitin

    @ Kigali

    Sarcasm, it’s been an absolute pleasure. Thank you so much for doing what you do so well.

    justvisitin<—- cursing uncontrollably and mad that he was 1 up’d by sarcasm

  17. chantel

    Brandy should of just told the truth like Brittney little sister. It is no secret that Teenagers are sexually active. I am sure she is dealing with the consequences of being a single mother.

    Raising a child alone is one of the hardest task that single mothers go through regardless of their financial status. Having a child with no father in the home is one of the hardest jobs in the world.

  18. chantel

    I co sign with BLAQ 100%. Look at Fantasia being a single mother from the south didn’t stop her from accomplishing her dreams. We are all humans who make errors. There is no such character as a picture perfect Moesha.

  19. blaq,

    @ Kigali

    You have respect for Brandy because she lied about having a husband instead admitting she did not plan to become pregnant. That’s what is so twisted. It is more acceptable to be a liar with “so called” morals than to be authentic. I know you are on this crusade against single mothers, but what is the purpose of walking around head hung low because you got pregnant. Most men and women are having sex at 22 married or not, pregnancy is the result of sex, and abstainance is the only 100% birth control. I suppose she should have paid dude to marry her so they could get a divorce a year later, so it would look better to people who don’t have ***** to do with her or her offspring.

  20. pat

    its not that deep….so she lied…we all have…she has a beautiful daughter now and has moved on

  21. alexandra

    pple make mistakes, i respect Brandy, that is really brave to admit that she lied….

    i guess she was afraid for her image, in the media

  22. STEFANY

    TOO LATE WE ALREADY KNEW THIS!

    Who do these young stupid girls think they be fooling getting married after they get knock up, just like Solonge Knowels did, hell everybody knew that ***** was fake. You’re already fornicating and screwing before marriage what does getting married supposed to fix?

    Now let’s see if Sarah Palin pregnant hillbilly daughter gets married now that the election is over.

  23. Ty

    Man she ugly as hell

  24. Kigali (Black females defend the weave like their new born!!!)

    @blaq,

    I am not respecting Brandy for lying. At the very least, she knew that being pregnant without a husband is shameful. It may not be to you, it doesnt seem like it is for most black females but where I am from, it most certainly is.

    The purpose of walking around with your head slung low because you got pregnant is to send a message and to maintain some moral standards. Because black females have given eachother a p*****, a hi five even when it happens, it has become acceptable. I understand people make mistakes but when the whole culture just gives up and starts accepting everything, its anarchy.

    I understand very well that people are having sex. People are also using birth control. I wish black females would. The female condom cost between $2.50 and $5.00. After a thorough disinfecting, it can be reused. There are any number of ways to keep from getting pregnant.

    “I suppose she should have paid dude to marry her so they could get a divorce a year later, so it would look better to people who don’t have ***** to do with her or her offspring.”

    I suppose, with all the money she has, she could have bought a condom to put on.

  25. Kigali (Black females defend the weave like their new born!!!)

    @chantal,

    I am sorry sistah but it is 2008. These arent mistakes. These people are being intentionally reckless. How the hell do you accidentally get pregnant with so many different birth controls out there?

    By the looks of it, for black females who are getting knocked up, these arent mistakes either but OUR culture. A very sad culture.

  26. Necy

    that’s why she should have gotten married before getting knocked up!!

  27. Baby Girl

    @justvisitin

    I definetly co sign with what you had to say it was very enlightning to read something meaningfull on here.

  28. Lisset

    Brandy is so beautiful!! I love her. Such a big fan. Can’t wait for that album to drop. She’s the REAL QUEEN B. She always brings it with her albums!!

  29. ...have him making ME pancakes in the mornin'

    everyone makes mistakes. most of us are just lucky enough that the sh*t don’t get broadcast for millions of people to know.

    rich is cool

    fame…not so much

  30. SASHA FLOP

    did her ugly ***** honestly think that people were buying her ‘goody goody’ image??? LMAO, that’s the funniest ***** i’ve heard all day.

  31. dayg715

    this has-been still has a career?

  32. simplygeorgeous

    For you judgemental and negatively critical ***** commentors on here talking about how you are “ashamed” at Brandy for coming clean about her marriage, need to take a long ***** look in the mirrow and reflect back on your own damn life to see if you’ve always made a perfect decision. NOT!! In fact, hella not!!! Don’t try to sit your ***** at a computer and past judgement on this young lady. Whatever deceits/lies she ever portrayed in the public eye, I’m sure she has brought it to the Good Lord (sorry God for my profanity) and He has forgiven her. And that’s the biggest and most importantant acceptance that man should be striving for, not from another so-called “strong, black women” or this fake ***** society that we live in. Please!!!1

  33. grownfolks

    that’s life…sh*t happens. we all make mistakes. I hope she is in a good place now!

  34. truth 17

    See this is why you don’t let folks all up in your bizness. It’s too late Brandy. I think she thinks she lost fans because she liedabout her marriage. I mean she already apologized for this so there is really no reason to do it again. I think she lost fans because her music was garbage.

  35. Pedro

    she got a big ***** muphakin head ,but doesn’t use it ,

  36. The Grundle

    Just want to say that Brandy KILLED someone.

  37. TRILLA

    OKAY, SO SHE LIED SO BE IT! NO ONE IS PERFECT AND HER ADMITTING TO IT SHOWS HOW SHES REAL.

    SHES NOT THE FIRST AND SHES DEFINITELY NOT THE LAST.

    AND WHO ARE YOU NO HAVING JOB GOON FACE *****’S SUPPOSED TO BE TO JUDGING HER.

    *****ODY!

    BRANDY IS A REAL TALENTED BEAUTIFUL BLACK WOMAN AND I WISH HER THE BEST OF LUCK.

    EVERYTHING HAPPENS FOR A REASON.

  43. blaq,

    @ Kigali

    Marriage before children is the ideal situation. But we do not live in an ideal world. I don’t know who you have spoken to that has given you the impression the American Black Woman do not want to be married and want to be single mothers have profoundly misled you. Children being born to unwed mothers have increase steadily in all races since 1990 the highest increases with hispanic women in their 20’s, secondly White women in their 40’s and actually the amount of black teenage pregnancies have decreased more than anyone else in the last 18 years. So it may be a societal issue were it is more accepted by all Americans to not be married when the child is born. More people are living together in lieu of being married. With the divorce rate at 60% many people are weary of marriage. 40% of all children born in the U.S. are born to unwed mothers 36% of those mothers are living with the childs father and plan to marry. Black men and women do not marry as much as other races. 65% of black households contain children of those 45% of them contain 2 parents. (Writing a grant, had to look up all of these statistics today:)) So I feel as though your interpretation the American black female is flawed (surprise surprise). Being ashamed of bringing life into this world is silly and unproductive. I personally advocate marriage before children, before sex even. If you choose not to wait, protect yourself, and if you end up a single parent through divorce or otherwise hold you head up high. That is the best lesson you can teach a child, never be ashamed of yourself, learn from your mistakes, and never let anyone make you feel small or inferior because you did not follow the norm. Peace and Blessing to all my sisters, especially the single mothers your have a harder job than the rest, but we are all responsible for the children.

    @ justvistin….

    I got you right away.Some peopLE are just LittLE more dence, than others.

    In the last part of your statement you said:

    “Black women don’t need a man and we certainly dont need a man to raise our kids. We can do it ourselves.

    Just make sure the (GOVERNMENT KEEPS UP WITH HALF THE RENT.) Meaning they can’t do it by themseLves after all.

    To these so called (strong black women) I keep hearing about. Without a man to kick in that finacilal support, or Government heLP.

    Or you happen to be Madonna, or Angelina Jolie whom both can purchase people to take care of thier kids.

    You can not do it alone. so get off that (strong bLack woman) ish,

    it is pLayed out, old, and a lie.

    Hats off to you (justvistin) Scarcasim at its best, LOL …..ARTOWAR.

  50. mia

    before it was announced that she and her “husband” were separating wasn’t there a report of her being pregnant with their 2nd child?

  51. Joey Bishop

    on her album cover,,its her pedaling across the moon on a bicycle an *****..her E.T lookin *****

  52. Flawdagurl

    I love her music back then. Havent really heard or kept up with her since FULL MOON.

  53. Flawdagurl

    LOL@ joey bishop

  54. REALLY?

    kIGALI IF YOU WOULD RATHER BE ASHAMED OF YOUR CHILD B/C YOUR NOT MARRIED THEN THATS GOOD FOR YOU OTHER SINGLE MOTHERS ARE TO BUSY TAKING CARE OF THE SITUATION INSTEAD OF COVERING IT TO MAKE IT FIT FOR *****ES THAT DONT KNOW THEM. REALLY!

  55. Flawdagurl

    My mom was married to my father when she had me that didnt stop my father from leaving though. He was there when I was growing up finacially but he was what I called a weekend dad. He always had his kids FRiday-sunday but i feel like my mom was a single parent b/c it was her who knew when i wasnt do right and her that took care of me in evey way possible dont get me wrong i love my daddy but my mom comes before anybody she had to sacrifice not him. The whole point is I came out just fine no kids before marriage never been to jail and neither have my other 7 siblings my mom only has 1 grandchild.


  56. Bossip is kinda like the Dow Jones of blackness, isn’t it? Toting up the million and one little upticks and downticks of black behavior, hopefully coming up with an average index of negritude that shows us doing a little bit better than the day before.

    But the historic trend is bearish, isn’t it? Crime, weakness, illegitmacy — and that’s just Brandy.

    I guess it’s a good thing everyone can laugh at entertainers in their outlandish getups. Although it was a more knowing, more triumphant laugh when it was white folks cracking up over Amos and Andy.

    Oh, look, here’s another rap superstar at arraignment on a weapons charge.

    Down another 100 points.

    The smart money is leaving the black market.


  57. what the kids will do to stay in the news…. who cares!

  58. Flawdagurl

    @REALLY

    you cant be going off they dont like that here you might get jumped.(lol)

  59. JOEY B

    @Flawdagurl—>>> thats a happy ending…i salute you and your fam.

  60. Kigali (Black females defend the weave like their new born!!!)

    @ART OF WAR,

    justvisitin didnt say that, I said that. She was quoting me and didnt get that I was being sarcastic.

  61. Kigali (Black females defend the weave like their new born!!!)

    @REALLY,

    DOnt get all pyscho black ***** on me ok. This isnt about the children this is about they bull***** ***** mothers who cant wear a *****ing condom and ***** with dumb *****hs. They need to be ashamed of themselves. Stop bull*****ing with your kids lives and establish a proper family. Dont give me this ***** about how single mothers are raising their kids. Barely raising them is more like it, just above the poverty line. What kind of achievement is that?

    Sorry, I dont give props to single mothers. They *****ed up in a major way. They dont have to give a ***** about me but they should atleast give a ***** about they kids and try to raise them in better environments, not living on the edges of society.

  62. Asada

    scary. We dont seem to respect women anymore. But its because we moralize too much. And we get demonized way to much.

  63. Mia1011

    At Kigali

    Your statements stem from the greatest ingnorance. Having a child before marriage is not only a practice that happens in the African American community. From what I have read, unwed pregnancy births are up for all races, not just African Americans. Instead of singling out one group of people and directing the negativity towards them, you should address the m*****es. No one race is responsible for the rise in unwed pregnancies, we as a whole should take accountability.

  64. alexandra

    brandy’s biggest mistakes was that she lied..

    i agree with MIA1011, single mothers is something that occcurs in all races.

    what about if a woman gets married, and then get a divorce… she’s back to being a single mother…

  65. Marquis de Sade

    LOL at some of black *****es coming out of the woodworks to defend and glorify single black motherhood. Pavlovian Response at its’ finest.

  66. Kigali (Black females defend the weave like their new born!!!)

    @MIA1011 & alexandra,

    Sometimes I feel like I am talking to children. Ok pay attention.

    Dont try to defend what trife ***** black females do by pointing out that white women do it also. That isnt a good counter argument. That isnt an argument at all. I will come in here and talk about what black females do because the audience is here.

    If I were in here talking about how awesome black females were I doubt either of you would be saying, “well women of other races are awesome too.”

    :)

  67. Tina

    Hi,

    I am Tina, a sexy and beautiful woman. Internet is a quite good place to meet friends and even find whatever your need. I am just in the beginning of my career and want to find a black man, so I uploaded my hot and even hot photos on ☆☆☆INTERRACIALLOVING.COM☆☆☆. I’m waiting for u……..


  68. Ok she lied…who doesn’t? Publicly or not. It’s bad that she lied, but admirable that she wanted/wants to live up to being a role model. At least she’s admitting it now.

    If anything, she can use her story to say don’t be this way. I think because we end up in situations with single parents or kids by more than one person, we say it’s okay when should say, I did it, but you should want better if that’s possible (but ‘ol boy aint give her much of a choice in the end, did he).

    So many entertainers stupidly say “I’m not a role model” when the funny thing is you don’t get to choose if you are one or not. The people who follow or emulate you determine that.

  69. Micaroni715

    Who is more busted Venus Williams or Brandi?

  70. Buttercup

    Yeah, those teeth are what’s really a problem here….damn, looks like she can bit an apple through a picket fence


  71. We all make mistakes… Lets git it in… Peace Black People!!!!
