They Are Indeed a Couple
Posted by Bossip Staff
Common had a performance Monday night in Barcelona, Spain, and a loyal Bossip reader tells us that Serena was in the audience and Common keep looking at her giving her some love glares.
A source has also confirmed to us that the two are indeed dating and definitely a couple. Serena’s relationship with Jackie Long was more along the friendship terms and Jackie really couldn’t handle all the attention that Serena received from other men.
By the looks of this pics from a couple weeks ago, Common is handling Serena quite well.

NNOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
YOU BITCH!!..LOL
second, bitches!
Lucky broad! He is too FINE! I can’t be mad at you Serena!
…good for THEM…
I’m glad to see them together.
are they dating now? Why so many people keeps saying they saw him before on a celebrity and millioniare dating site like ’searching millionaire. com’. Is that true?
I think I like them better than her and Jackie. Jackie needs a few more acting gigs under his belt before he can qualify to date a woman of Serena’s wealth and accomplishments.
uh oh!! well good for them!
LOL @ bossip and their loyal readers…LOL!!!
I always knew that he was gay.
If I was Serena, I’d be throwin’ good puddy to him DAY and NIGHT!
Man oh man, TEAR IT UP GIRL!!!!!!!!!!
Bossip made this up!
Im jealous of that man lookin bitch lol!
Good for her, he’s hot.
@I Stay SMH…I agree with you on that. Serena is so manly to me. Anyway, I wish them the best.
Damn they must have great sex.
A new spin on Celebrity Gossip:
http://www.celebpsychic.blogspot.com
She look like Iron Mike!
Serena has a ‘manly’ figure because she works hard as an athlete. They’re her guns…literally. Can’t fault her for that.
…and all things said, the men dem still love her…
I love the fact she is starting to finally find comfort in her own skin, wearing outfits that fit her frame.
U KNOW SERENA’S GOT STAMINAAAA FOR DAYS…..HOW CAN OLE BOY KEEP UP??? I HOPE HE’S DOING EXTRA CARDIO IN HIS WORKOUTS…
dang i ber rene could bust a tennis ball in the snatch i aint mad at her i’d ride common till the wheels fall off
CONGRATS..I HEARD THEY FOUND EACH OTHER ON STOPTHATSTUPIDASSSPAMMINGSHIT.COM
SORRY, I WANTED TO DO IT TOO !
MERNING BOSSIPERS !!
LOL @ Drock, maybe thats why hes with her. Im still jealous.
lol @ 504!!!
Cute couple and as for the stockings, we all like it a lil’ rough sometimes.
His delicious!
dead @ “love glares”
There are plenty of female athletes that do not look like men. She has an extra set of hormones or chromosones or maybe even genitalia.
She looks like a bad drag queen… Common you can do better than that…I wish his ass would keep it real and date a Chicago woman….he knows that’s where his heart is…with US! C’mon home baby…
I don’t know if I could wake up to that face every morning w/o makeup.
@PaigeyWaigey any Chi woman except Da Brat lmbao
Aint feeling them as a couple at all.
MAJOR UPGRADE FOR SERENA!good for her – no sense in dealing w/ a broke brotha @ least Common got his own money the other dude wld have been liiving off hers!!
DROCK
I absolutely LOVE your gravie! That is the cutest baby ever!!!
I’ve been meaning to tell u that for a while but was just too lazy! LOL!!
@PaigeyWaigey
Uh sorry hun but Common got some sense & moved to BROOKLYN NYC!!!
So he aint thinking abt yall Chi-Town broads lol!
504…..EFF U TO..AND WHAZZZZZUP……
That other dude, Jackie; he seems like a dork.
Yucky.

I actually like them together. If they are happy then its cool but I’m just glad that Common is not taking a dip in the snow
That’s what I’m talking about B.E.T…
At least Common ain’t fucking with dem snow bunnies….
Him and Serena look cute together.
LMAO @ these slobby hoochies and cunts making fun of Serena simply because she works out. I guess slobs or bones are the only way a sistah can get some respect these days. I have never mistaken her for a man, go figure!
If the rumors are true, I’M HAPPY FOR THEM!
They make a HOT couple, and I’m glad Common likes beautiful black women.
GO ‘HEAD!
Jamie Foxx got dissed AGAIN!
That’s what I’m talking about B.E.T…
At least Common ain’t fucking with dem snow bunnies….
Him and Serena look cute together.
______________________________________
Word. Black women ain’t never satisfied. I’ve even some black folks call Serena gorilla. (sad)
Praise to my black sistahs, “mannish” or not!
Go Serena, get you some of that man candy!
he must be gay because she is ugly as shit….sorry.
Hey B. Mama, how you feel? I was just going to echo what you had posted. Good for them!!!
THANKS TLATRICE…
he aint fucking her and she aint fucking him. they in denial
Yes to the person who said sistas need to stop hating on each other. Sometimes we can be our worst enemies yet we get mad when a brotha steps out of pocket & marries white, asian ect.
Sometimes I can’t blame a brotha for marrying outside the race. Sistas need to stop worrying & hating on each other cuz all it does it reflect your own lack of self esteem.
Those who don’t like what I’m saying will be the ones who this post is referring to. Take it how ya take it – I really don’t care.
BTW I like Common a whole lot more for standing tall & reppin for the “real” black woman translation: Not mixed with Korean, Caucasian, Hispanic just a normal pretty black girl with her NATURAL hair!
Keep in mind I myself am the complexion of Alicia Keys just so there is NO CONFUSION
i kno, these damn bossip chicks aint satisfied wit nobody, that why black people cant unite, they too busy talkin about each other, like “oh, Ashanti sista too fat” now its “seresna too built, she mannish” get the F outta here, stop hatin(and snitchin) Serena’s body puts like 90% of all black womens bodies to shame.
in that pic it looks like Serena was on her knees that night lol!
t
he must be gay because she is ugly as shit….sorry.

@ T
What makes this young lady ugly? She’s actually better looking in the face than Cassie, Mya & a whole host of other thought to be beauties- {In my opinion}
This is such a mismatch or is it? I mean they are both men smh, looks aint everything but common is way to sexy for her wtf.
Ibn
these damn bossip chicks aint satisfied wit nobody
______________________________
no they ain’t!
and notice the pattern of the black women they call ‘ugly’ or ‘draq queenish’.
just imagine if commong was pictured with a white chick.
Yes, I’m jealous, but I’m also happy for them. Best of luck. Make him leave his hat on though.
Don’t call me a hater cusu I’m not. I just don’t understand this whole Serena hype.
Serena is UGLY. I can’t believe there are men checking for her??? I mean Meagan Good Kenya Moore Gabrielle Union etc those are gorgeous women. Serena looks like a MAN both her face and body. She’s built like a quarterback. Why do two handsome brothas like Jackie Long and Common want to be with Man-rena??? I really don’t get it. She got a big booty and she’s rich but a big booty don’t make you hot…is it the money they like or maybe she’s a freak in bed or maybe she’s a really really sweet person.
well KEISHA, youre just like alot of american black folk who are brainwashed to like chicks like that and consider it the “standard” beuty. Serena looks alot like a pure african, body or not, and becuse this isnt the normal standard, people say she is ugly, or man-ish, but in actuality, beauty comes in all forms so who r u to judge.
oh and did u see serena on My Wife and Kids? Hot fiyah like diamond.
Common handle that, kid!
Its is funny to me, cause if this was a dark skin black dude with a good looking light skin chick… we would hear the “yes Massa syndrome” and “turning away from your mother” from these females….
but noooo all I see are females talkin about how FINE he is….
ok… i see how we play this game
First off who Jackie Long?…But she do got a wagon!…But aint nobody better then that blind bittie he had in that video…she was sexy and blind u know she was getting a check!!
I’m Jel…..
But I am happy for them both. Strong couple.
I hope they work out.
Oh my lord. What a stunning black couple Serena and common make. she looked beautiful with Jackie Long too. I can’t blame the men for wanting this sister man. She is smart, beautiful, accomplished and the body? LAWD HAVE MERCY. I look forward to seeing more pictures of them. Come on Bossip…..more, more.
I love the black couples today man.
Keisha
You are ignorant. You are victim to believe European standards of beauty. Serena looks more like “us” as a collective whole.
If Common was with Alicia Keys who I happen to think is not all that I bet you’d feel more comfortable- wouldn’t you?
SMH at YOU keisha….don’t u know when you put a sista down you send a message letting the world know you are un-stisfied with YOUR own self???!!!
im sooooooooooo jealous!!!
Serena Williams has beautiful face but she has 2 much muscle on her body fore a female. i don’t understand whats pretty about common down
Did Serena fall on her knees at some point in the evening, look at the tights/panty hoes?!
Serena is far too manly in appearance for Common. Also, Common is a deep thinker, activist, and more on the Neo-Soul tip. Serena does not appear to embody any of those qualities. Just doesn’t appear to be a good match on the surface. Oh well, we will see how this plays out….
HATERS! I think common can choose his own women without your advice. He knows what he wants. Serena is a beautiful woman. She is intelligent, sucessful and a sweet gentle woman. What else do you want for a human being?
love glares…that is hilarious!!!!!!!
Beautiful couple. God Bless them.
Mostly Haters here! Serena and Common?? I hope So! AND SHE IS A CUTE GIRL! STFU HATERS!
good for them, but for some reason i just feel as though Common is too good for Serena. (NO, not b/c he’s lighter than her–fall back with that nonsense) He just seems too emotionally and intellectually mature for her. Serena seems a little flaky in interviews and such. He matches better with Kerry Washington or even A. Keys but whatever.
I like Common but he urks me, how u gon be hoodtastic when u first come out now u all NEO SOUL GLOW…did he have a spiritual cleansing journey I missed? err..I mean u can change, but DAG! it’s like he never ever was that kind of MC like ever..no traces or nothing..he had some edge, now he just all calm and earthy..but whatever works I guess..
Be still my heart! I ain’t mad at you Serena. And to Common – that’s a good look, don’t mind the haters!
@reformed gamma ray “I like Common but he urks me, how u gon be hoodtastic when u first come out now u all NEO SOUL GLOW…did he have a spiritual cleansing journey I missed?”
when your with eryka badu for a certain amount of time it does things to u, that was too dumb of a question to ask. (i guess u did miss miss his spiritual clensing journey aka electric circus)
Common is the man if he is hittin all of that. If its too much for him let me get a go at it I’m in perfect shape
well I said “I guess” geez.. MY take..
I didnt know being around Erica Badu changes u for life,whoa.. I gotta get some folk to find her..thanks for the FYI!
I am really trippin. I cant believe some of the stuff I read.SMH! There are ppl in the world amongst us who think as some of you do.
“Serena is far too manly in appearance for Common.”
maybe Common likes manly.
“Also, Common is a deep thinker, activist, and more on the Neo-Soul tip.”
Being that he does embody these qualities he more than anyone would look for the beauty someone possesses inside and not focus on the package.
Pushed the Submit Comment by mistake…
I was commenting on HAZELNUT comments. But some of the others are a trip too.
Fuck supporting Barack—Support Black Love.
DAMN Yall!
People common. Unless you have Serena, you can’t tell what kind of person she is from interviews. I like Serena, she is pretty, nice figure but i don’t know her. Common knows her. Remember, there was this rumor he was dating Kerry Washington but he instead chose Serena. Goes to show you it’s about personality, character and how both parties mesh. Common like what he sees and feel she meshes well with him. Period.
I love this coupling and I hope things work out. Beaufiful.

how come ppl always use this line, “you don’t know them personally”. no $h*t Sherlock, that’s why it’s a blog site. the basic premise is that we are commenting on the image of the celebrity as it is presented publicly. anyway, how do you know it’s about personality/character etc for Common? remember…you don’t know him. ????

@ hey
I think you give Common too much credit. I have a few of his albums, and I don’t think his lyrics are all that deep. Mos Def, Talib Kweli, Lupe Fiasco, are much deeper to me. He didn’t come across as very well spoken or deep when he was on Oprah during her town hall meeting on hip-hop after the Imus remarks. I hope he sits in the gallery at the Slams this year.
@kara kor el
when did i say that his lyrics were “all that deep”? please try and understand. my comment was comparing Common to Serena per the topic at hand–not to Talib etc.
i still stand by my **opinion** (whether or not ppl misinterpret it is another matter)
@hey
My bad, and here I was judging a “conscious” artist’s “deepness” and “emotional maturity” by his work. I mean, since you’re judging Serena on her lack of depth based on “flakiness” and soundbites in her interviews. Did you read the part where I alluded to his fourth grade level vocab on Oprah? Yeah, well he wasn’t very “intellectually mature,” and his acceptance speeches at awards shows aren’t very profound either, unless you consider thanking God, original and thought provoking. You are entitled to your opinion, as I am mine, and I think you speak too highly of Common.
whatever kara. you still completely misunderstood me and are simply repeating your original argument based on erroneous assumptions. it’s past 5 and i’m done for the day heffah.
ooh, name calling? I don’t think you’re “intellectually mature” either.
That’s cool that Serena got a black diok!
i ain’t mad, but jealous as hell!
Good luck to ‘em both.
if this is true how come you still showing old pictures….how come you have no new pics?
They are my new favorite celeb couple. YAY!!
i’m so in love with common, so yes, i think he could do better (hell he could do MEEEE!!). LOL serena has been looking more feminine lately, so maybe those bumpy rocks/muscles all over her body have smoothed out so he won’t hurt himself. i saw this pic up a while back and I DID NOT notice the damn runs in her stockings. SMH. yeah, he wore her ass out…i’m so jealous
Cute couple.
I love it!!!!! This gone make all the hatin ass women show they true colors. They look good together to me.
I don’t think all these guys would be checking for her if she were Serena from down the block. They may want to hit it because of her huge ass, but that’s about it. They certainly wouldn’t be trying to take her out in public.
No Serena, that’s MY man!! lol. (I’ma be a hater right now.) Damn, I love me some Common. She can have him, for now….
Common – no no NO!!!!
Wait, was this heffa givin my man he@d in the car? Why her cheap tights all tore up??
ARE YOU GUYS COMPLETELY OUT OF YOUR MIND OR JUST PLAIN BLIND.
COMMON IS TOO MUCH FOR HER- SHE IS NOT WORTHY OF A MAN LIKE THAT-WHAT CAN SHE GIVE HIM SHE IS EVIDENTLY NOT INTOUCH WITH HER FEMININE SIDE AT ALL- HE NEEDS ALL WOMAN LIKE ALICIA KEYS- I HEARD THEY WERE DATING ANYWAY WHAT HAPPENED TO THAT? EVIDENTLY THERE MUST BE SOME KIND OF CHEMISTRY THEY’RE BOTH IN EACH OTHER’S NEW VIDEOS AS LOVE INTERESTS- I MEAN COME ON THEY’RE NOT EVEN SINGING IN EACH OTHERS SONS- THEY JUST WANT AN EXCUSE TO BE NEXT TO EACH OTHER- OTHER WISE ISN’T THAT WHAT MODELS, ACTORS, AND VIDEO VIXENS JOB?
NOW THAT IS A HOT COUPLE.
BOTH ARE BEAUTIFUL, LOVELY VOICES, COMMUNITY ACIVISTS,AND SPEAK FROM THE SOUL
NOW THAT’S ONE WOMAN THAT IM SURE CAN MAKE A MAN FEEL LIKE A MAN NOT A BAR BUDDY LIKE SEREN WOULD.
SHE IS BUTT UGLY.
DONT HATE ITS THE TRUTH
Love you, Serena. Please stop with the arm baring outfits.
COMMON LOOKS like he be wearing her ASS out. I BET SHE GET PREGNANT BY HIM. I Heard she LOVES him as much as she does TENNIS. DAMN. THose Sexy RED LIpS of COMMON Looks like it Be all up BETWEEN tHOSE SUFFOCATED PILLOWS.( HER BIG ASS)
THAT DAMN COMMON Is as SMOOTH As HIS LYRICS. HIS ASS Be going through some WOMEN. HE must be packing cause He hurt all of them. He did Eryraka Badu the same way. She was crazy about him too.
