Swizz Beatz‘ ex-wife Mashonda is still talking about the behind the scenes foolishness that went down with her relationship and it gets weirder and weirder every time she brings up something new. This time, Mashonda is speaking out against her ex-husband’s brand new wife Alicia Keys, and talking about how the R&B singer/songwriter asked their 3-year-old son Kasseem Jr. (along with Swizzy’s newfound daughter) to call her “Umi,” which means “Mommy” in Arabic!
A.KEYS DID WHAAAAATTT?!?!
Yup, that’s right! Your favorite “Super Woman” actually asked her husband’s young children (and her step children) to call her MOMMY! Mashonda talks about that and more in her cover story for the October issue of S2S Magazine. Check out a few snippets from the feature below:
On Alicia Keys and Swizz Beatz’ affair
S2S: Were you guys dating other people before he got with Alicia? Were you guys separated?
Mashonda: We were married. Sleeping in the same bed and having sex every night while he was seeing Alicia. Okay? It was an affair. 100 percent. I don’t know why people want to change that rule so much. We had just had a kid, for crying out loud. Our child was 8 months. I found out about Alicia two days before my son turned 1. They had been doing their thing for months before that.
On Alicia asking Kasseem Jr. to call her “Mommy”
S2S: You said that Alicia wanted your baby to call her “mommy”. How do you know that she said that?
Mashonda: My son told me.S2S: And you told her that is not going to happen?
Mashonda: Yeah. I sent her an email and asked her to please respect what I am to him and it’s not right for her to think that is okay. She never replied. She doesn’t reply to me. She has never given me that respect.S2S: What does Swizz say?
Mashonda: He said okay, he would stop it. He wouldn’t let her do it.S2S: That would be kind of confusing for the child.
Mashonda: Oh, it is. It is so unfair to the child. I have been in contact with the little girls mother (the woman in England who has Swizz’s baby). She’s a young girl. She’s a spiritual girl. She apologized to me… I don’t even judge her. I can’t. She’s totally different than the other one. This other one knew. Alicia knew about me 100 percent. Swizz introduced me at prior events. They were signed to the same record company. She knew. And I emailed her and asked her to stop doing what she was doing and she disregarded me. Just like she disregarded me when I asked her to not have my son thinking it was okay to call her “umi.” You’re not his umi. You just met my son.S2S: “Umi” is like “mommy”?
Mashonda: “Umi” means “mommy” in Arabic. I’m like no. And then after I spoke to the lady in London, she told me that she tried to get her daughter to call her “umi” as well.S2S: She’s met the lady in London?
Mashonda: Yes. I’m glad she’s having her own child now because now she will have someone to call her “umi”.S2S: Wow.
Mashonda: Like, if you want to be a stepmother, that’s great. Be a stepmother. But don’t think that it’s okay to make a kid call you “umi” or “mommy.”
On why she’s still talking about Alicia & Swizzy if she says she’s moved on
Mashonda: People ask me why am I still talking about this and why don’t I just leave it alone. I’m like, this is going to help somebody. My story is a universal thing. This is not just something that only happened to me: This happens to women every day. Mine was just ugly. If I can help the next woman get through and be positive, then I’m going to talk about it.
WOW!! We can’t believe Alicia Keys would actually do something so low down and dirty! You are NOT those children’s mother, you are their STEP-MOTHER. Learn your role and just be patient for that seed of yours to make its arrival. Then you can have him/her calling you “Umi” or “Mommy” or “Mammy” or whatever you want all damn day long…
