Mashonda Talks Divorce From Swizz Beatz, Says She Will Not Attend His Wedding To Alicia Keys

alicia keys

The ex-wife of Swizz Beatz is speaking on her former spouse and his upcoming nuptials to Alicia Keys.

As previously reported Mashonda and Swizz Beatz were officially divorced in May after years of marriage citing irreconcilable differences.

Soon after Swizzy and Alicia Keys announced that they were expecting their first child and plan to marry later this year.

Now Mashonda's once again speaking on the situation and tells VIBE that she has no plans to see the couple exchange vows.

When asked by VIBE that if she were to be invited to the wedding if she'd go, she says no. She also recalled when she attended Beatz' birthday party and saw the happy couple together---while they were still married.

“No. Not out of malice, but because weddings are sacred. It's just not my place. The only reason I went to his birthday party was because he invited me and I did that for myself. I needed to see them together for it to transfer. And I was like ‘Wow, this is real.' We were still totally married…We had a divorce that was nowhere near final, but I just needed to see them in action for it to be real to me, and it was definitely real.

You have all these different types of steps that you have to set up for yourself until you get to that place where you are free. And I will tell you, after I got divorced maybe three weeks later I woke up and felt a weight removed. It was the first time I'd ever felt mentally free. And I sent him an email wishing him all the best in the world.”


Speaking on A.Keys, Mashonda als told VIBE that she still listens to her music and understands that's she's been acting like a woman in love.

“I don't make it an effort to listen. I don't make it an effort not to listen. I still like her songs. She's head over heels in love and I get it. Every woman deserves to feel that, not at the expense of another woman though. But I understand why some of the decisions were made on her part, because her heart was so in it.

I can't fight that [and] I can't fight her because she's a household name. People are always going to love her for her music, as they should. She makes great music, but no one is really ever going to understand what happened in this house.”


She also touched on the way she felt when she found out about the pair's affair and says she felt “f*cking disrespected.”

“Bottom line, the rule is, if you're messing with somebody, you don't know they're married, and you found out they're married if you come into any contact with that wife, leave it alone… respect the woman, respect the wife. Like I said before, it was an ego thing for me. I'm being f*cking disrespected, nobody respects me, this is my husband, this is my family, this girl thinks she can just do anything she thinks she wants to. And that's what I dealt with for a while, until I gave up.”

    She will not attend his wedding to Alicia Keys????? Hmmmmm....I'm wondering if anyone even invited her...SMH

    • MSNIK

      the question was IF she was invited would she attend..

    • Whatev

      I have chills reading this. Big ups Mashonda. I was on your team all along anyway. You guys, she's speaking on it because the media is asking her, and people want to know. I've lost all personal respect for Alicia even though I know this is a business deal, but you can't knock her music. I won't spend money on it now though... and, much of the magic is gone when I hear her now. So my issue w/Swizz' excuse is: His 1st son looks like @ least 10... So all this time Mashonda was cool with him and all of a sudden she wasn't a good stepmom? Doesn't add up. I bet Swizz misses Mashonda. They were together so long and love doesn't just go away. It would be fine if they got back together. I can see him coming back begging and crying.

    • COOLNCL*****IE

      KARMA IS REAL...AND WHEN U GO AFTER WHAT U WANT WITHOUT CONSIDERING OTHERS WHO ARE INVOLVED IT COMES RT BACK TO BITE U IN THE *****. ALICIA, I LOVE HER MUSIC BUT PERSONALLY SHE'S A PIG. TRUST ME I USED TO BE ONE AND I PAID THE PRICE, SO WILL SHE!!!

    • Charlene Stokes

      Well it's both Swiss and Alicia's fault. When you take your marriage vow's that means let NO interferrance from anyone. It's a union that no man or woman has a right to interven. If you are a respectful woman or man you won't let this happen. Swiss took sacred vows with Mashonda and fell totally short. Alycia got got caught up in something she shouldn't have messed with in the first place. So what she got pregnant she shouldn't have opened her leggs in the first place. If single women wouldn't go along with this bull then a married man would have anyone to do this with. Tell their dumb *****es to become single and then come and hollow at you. Miss single helfa you disrupting an entire family. My heart goes out to Mashonda. When things get rough in a marriage we are so quick to just get out of it. Instead of leaning on the one and only God to help us solve our differences. If we would just sit still and wait on the mighty one up above we would have less divorces and mess ups like this. They both may think they are in love right now but their days are coming. And I'm sure Alysica expects Swiss to now act like a real married man but she accepted him fooling with her. I don't care if you are going through a divorce . Until it's over you are still man and wife. It's called RESPECT. I you don't respect yourself and others you won't ever rate no matter what we achieve in life or how much money we make. Right is right and wrong is wrong. There's nothing morally, religiously, lovingly, repectfully right out this union they created. They both need to go to bible study at church and see what they've done. Mashonda you are a very strong woman. I wish you the best and God is on your side my sista. I was a huge Alycia Keys fan but this is degrading!!!

    • J Dugg

      I am reading in a few comments, people writing that Mashonda and Beatz were separated when he and Alicia got together, and this is NOT true. If you read her entire interview she will state that. Also she met Alicia when she was under the impression they were happily married. POINT BLANK, Alicia knew what she was getting into and she is just as much to blame. What she did was low down! Also do the math! Their son was born today... which means he was conceived in January. Um Beatz and Mashonda weren't officially divorced until May AND Mashonda states that they were not separated prior to he and Alicia getting together. I am just disappointed in the fact that a young, beautiful, African American, talented woman could not find her own man but instead had to get involved with a married one! I mean COME ON AK! What's up with you!? *sigh* DAMN SHAME!

  • TheEducator

    Moron " aleximaq ",

    Read and understand and stop wondering before you make stupid comments. The interviewer asked Mashonda would she attend "IF" she were to be invited. Therefore she is responding to the "IF" scenario that was posted to her. She never implied or insinuated that she WAS invited!

  • http://patricerenee1.wordpress.com Patrice Renee…

    Of course not A. Keys "wrecked" her home...come on Mashonda be real

  • huhsaywhat?

    It was insensitive of VIBE to even ask her such a stupid question.

    We've all experienced some type of heartache & disappointment in our lives -- no need to rub salt in the wound.

  • thesaneone

    mashonda is hella pretty:)

  • sisiouatt

    mashooonda i understand you and i support you but stop to talk about this again !!

  • kl

    I have so much love and respect for you. God has a bigger plan for your life and you will be happer than you ever though you could be.

    Stay blessed,

    Your sister in spirit

  • WHOELSE

    Well I'm glad she is healing well or atleast she says she is healing well...and she's right, noone will ever know what happened in that house...best of luck to Mashonda and keep ur head up...anyone who has smtg harsh to say abt this post or about Mashonda has either not lived thru much or is just plain old triffling...

  • rosshell masden

    Mashonda from swizz beatz interview he stated it was several reasons why the marriage was over. the one reason was that you had an issue with his first born.....if thats the case you should be ashamed of yourself you got at child and i'm sure you wouldnt want his new stepmother to treat him any different. im sure alicia keys will be a very good stepmother.

  • Pix

    As a married woman I can't help but lose respect for Alicia Keys. I think Mashonda is more than generous as it is quoted here and it sounds like she's in a good place to move forward.

  • beckytwg

    Thats what happens when your cheap air fair and your husband can now afford first cl*****

  • Facts

    This should stay private and out of the media, but Swizz says he left because she didn't want Swizz having his other son around that is outside of Mashonda and not Mashonda's son. This issue is never mentioned, and everything is negative. It is sad that this all happened. Marriage is more difficult than many realize

  • Info Redd

    Much respect to Mashonda, cause she would've been well within her right to f*ck Alicia Keys azz up...I'm just sayin'. But it seems as though she decided to do it the grown up mature way which is sadly not to common these days. Sometime you have to let go and let karma do its job.

  • B-nice

    Mashonda, is real! It is a disrespect when someone openly decides to engage themselves upon something you feel you created. In the end, how Alicea got him is how she will lose him! Bottom Line "Real Talk"...Any man who is so quick to jump on that backs of another woman while married is not worth having a relationship with. Swizz is going with Alicea Keys for the P*$$$Y and not for love.....Real Talk...

    • shortyb

      THE PU$$Y?!!!!!!!YOU SO STUPID!!!!!!!!!!

  • GreeneyedBandit

    SHE IS A BEAUTIFUL YOUNG LADY! IM GLAD SHE'S MOVING ON!

  • Lesley

    I just really do not like Alicia Keys anymore. As a woman, I dont understand how you could put anothr woman through that. Both alicia and swizz are disrespectful. How do u come and take away someone's husband and father to their kids and still be together before the divorce is even finalized, and then have a baby on the way. Alicia is out of line. Karma will catch up eventually.

    • Pam

      I agree with you on that. I really hate to see anyone suffer such humiliation as Mashonda had to in the case of Key's and Beat's actions. Karma does come back, and doesn't Keys realize that the heat that is going on between her and Mashonda's husband is because of Mashonda? The fire goes out now that Mashonda doesn't give a d*mn anymore and is moving on. Who will be the imaginary screw over person now? Haven't Keys heard that love is better when you're stealing it? Well it's going to be just that much hotter for the woman who does not want Beats for her husband, but enjoys the heat of stealing from Key's knowing that Beats is loving every minute of it! He is just that kind of man!

      Pam

  • http://kindheartedkey.tumblr.com Key-ke

    I'm glad to see she is moving on because she could have had cold feelings towards Swizz and Alicia. Kudos to her because it could have been so different.

  • Star

    F@CK Alicia Home Wrecker Keys!! Karma will get her.....just wait and see.

  • lt

    I really undrstand how she feels in regards to not attending his weeding. a similar thing happen to me after 13yrs of being in what I thought was committed relationship but turn out he started seeing someone 6yrs younger than him who uyse to work where we did. I often question when it started but realized the God had Simply done me a favor and needed to Thanks him and Move On. Let go Mashonda he really isn't cute any way

  • Chevy

    HAPPY MASHONDA IS MOVING ON. ALICIA IS A HOME WRECKER AND KNOWS WHAT SHE DID WAS WRONG. SHE THAT DESPERATE TO GET A MAN SMH AND HE AINT ALL THAT. SHES PATHETIC!!!! MASHONDA YOURE BEAUTIFUL AND YOU WILL FIND A BETTER MAN.

  • Annette

    DAMN MASHONDA IS ONE CL*****Y WOMAN! I WOULD'VE BEEN LIKE LEFT-EYE (RIP) &BURNED SOMEBODY'S HOUSE DOWN!

  • VA Lovah

    I'm glad she's moving forward. 9 times out of 10 the other female will experience the same thing.

  • Annette

    ^i'M mad the word c.l.a.s.s.y. is censored^

  • STFD

    I'm proud that Mashonda isn't making a fool out of herself in the media. Alicia & Swizz have done this ALL WRONG. It's despicable. They have not thought about the consequences & how this is going to affect ALL of the children involved, they are selfish selfish SELFISH.

  • anon

    haha mashonda not like she was going to invite u b@tch face

    luv u AK

    • *LILA*

      @anon girl do you really think alicia keys worring about your lil comment...And to all the other ones um how are going to tell someone to move on and when your about to get a divorce that hurtful not just bad butt just waking up and knowing your going to court this morning to get an divorce from your soulmate its not that easy to move on from a bad divorce

  • purebeautii

    WHY WOULD SHE!?!?!? I KNW HER PAIN OF A CHEATING MAN AND THE CHICK KNOWS OF YOU BUT DONT CARE CAUSE SHES ONLY LOOKING OUT FOR SELF....I BLAME AKEYS CAUS SHE COULD HAVE TOLD HIM NO OR HANDLE YOUR BIZ FIRST THEN GET BACK TO ME. ITS STILL WRONG ON HER BEHALF BUT HEY LIKE THE OLD SAYING GOES WHAT GOES AROUND COMES BACK AROUND EVEN WORSE!!!!!

  • AtlmestuckinDC

    Very interesting...was with her except on one issue, if your husband
    doesn't respect you, your marriage, or
    your family do you REALLY expect an outside
    party to do so? If your husband doesn't care about your
    feelingsyou really think someone that didn't take vows
    with you will put you first? Beef is with hubby. If Swizzy
    didn't disrespect this ish would not be
    news. Women always go after the woman that's the ego
    talking not logic.

  • M3@9@N

    Sorry fi she. Mi sure she nuh invited Smh

  • Monique 1974

    Alot of people can't seem to understand why folks are so *****ed at Alicia Keys. They think that people are "hating" because of her love and/or relationship with Swizz. But, that's not the reason why. I have nothing against Alicia being in love with Swizz. If that's what your heart feels, then so be it. But, why couldn't you just let the man and Mashonda handle their business first? Like Mashonda said, "respect the family, respect the wife". Alicia didn't have any respect for this woman in terms of how she went about the whole situation with Swizz. That's why everyone is so *****ed with her. It was the "WAY" that she did it. It wasn't her love for him that got alot of people upset, it was the way she went about it. They were still married! She had no busniess stepping to this man and vice-versa. But, it's all good. He actually did Mashonda a favor. By exiting from her life, it's making room for the right man to come along and treat her the way she's supposed to be treated. Now as for him and Alicia....I think the lyrics to her song "Karma" will soon come into play.

  • Bug

    I can honestly say, Mashonda has let it go. Her conversation is totally different. Glad that she has moved on because again we will never know the hurt she experienced.... Good luck to all parties... I know in the back of Alicia's mind that she wonders if he will ever leave and cheat on her, even though his 1st the marriage was a failed one. What makes this relationship different? He hasn't even had time to heal and deal with self... I don' t understand how people jump from one relationship to another....

  • respectful chic

    Good for the both of them...we don't know the entire story.so thumbs up to both women and Swizz

  • Kellie

    I sat front row in Tampa Florida happy to be that close to Ms. Keys, but today and everyday that I have heard and saw Ms. Keys in action I have been very disappointed in her character.

  • Scorpion Gurl

    Good luck Mashonda. You are beautiful and you deserve better. No one understands the feeling of being hurt until it happens to them. Doesn't Alicia Keys understand that there is a little baby in London who looks just like her future husband? (BTW Alicia Keys is already aging pretty badly)

  • nuffsaid

    Nothing last forever, even some relationships, but the ones that go blameless have nothing wrong to worry about it, its the blamed that should be concerened. She should be strong and private about her personal life and leave her problems and worries in Gods hands not the public's. Thats where she made her mistake and lowered herself to her husbands childish level.

  • Candy4yuu

    All I can say is that what goes around comes back around and as one of the other posters said,"karma"...is a b*tch!..look out A. Keys cause the way you get him...is the same way you lose him...it is never right to disrespect the "vowels of marriage" and hey Mashonda, be cl*****y and beautiful as you wanna be sista' cause you have a lot to look forward to and, I do understand what you meant by that "weight" being lifted off of your shoulders.Next time it will be your turn! God bless you and keep rising to the top!

  • TBaby

    I think Mashonda has the right to tell her side of the story..this was a married woman who was taken advantage of not only by her husband and his mistress but also the media/public..people will never see Alicia as a homewrecker..why, because not a lot of people know that Swizzy was even married before Alicia..I feel sorry for both Mashonda..Alicia will get whats coming to her for sure..I no longer listen to her music because as a married woman I am disgusted by her actions as a woman, and a role model to young girls.

    mashonda just do you, females these days have no respect for themselves or for anyone else. I hope god blesses you with a better husband.

  • lala

    Get over it, like she said the divorce was in motion, might not have been FINAL, but it was already in progress, he was free to move on. Now will you do the same damn thing and stop talking about it. You harping on it won't bring him back. And to all those hating Alicia Keys, you will never know what happened, you can *****UME, and act like you do, but you don't know what happened and you never will. You act like it's affecting you some how, give me a fu*kin break. People take celebrities lives way to personal. SMH

  • maci thomas

    I think it's interesting that Mashonda sits here and states how you have to respect the wife, seeing as Swizz was dealing with the mother of his first child, common law and all, and she stepped in as an up and coming singer looking for a deal and swooped in and took over in his life the same way, even to the point where his first "wife's" child couldn't visit regularly. Her and Swizz were separated for over a year and a half before this new situation popped up. Both of them were back and forth dating and talking to other people, with both of them leaving the other alone. Maybe wives of producers get more perks than ex-wives, huh? Getting into clubs, going to events, and other treats come easier when your a wife in name at least? In the industry, there are plenty people who are married in name only to save face for the spouse who gets used to the affluence. As for A Keys, you love someone enough, you can wait for them to clean their mess up and start you over with a clean slate. How long do you wait, though, if the your love's ex wants more and more money than before because they've become used to a certain type of lifestyle, like spa treatments every week or shopping every other day. I guess it's only right, seeing how they have kids by them, right? Hmmmm...

  • meandu

    I agree with lovely1....
    As a married couple in a perfect world u would like to think ur husband its sitting in a corner thinking about what he has done wrong and crying anf longing to be back with you again. But its not like that. This is real life. If I ran into "the man of my dreams" who told me hes been seperated for a long while and how hurt he is and as much as i dont wnat to I may end up really falling for him. Im a good person with a good heart and i know how it feels to be hurt by someone u love bt im also a woman with a huge heart. Im living in this crazy world hoping to find true love..And sometimes the heart wants what the heart wants.

  • yo mama

    smdh at alicia "keys" seriously. i can tell in te new song that she means what she's hollarin but still. yuck. some one mentioned the importance of black women respecting each other and such....well....she was raised by a white woman with an absentee black father...soooo. what ever that may mean...many people disrespect many people in general. there is something sad about doing so and then running around flashing your pearly whites as if no one else is effected. shame.

  • Tamica

    “Kudos”or Much Respect to Mashonda for being honest. But would she rather live a lie and not be happy? Are is she just living a everyday single woman story? I am just asking. Because if she was a no name plan Jane Who would care? No matter what happens it no body business. But I guess because it's Alicia it a big deal. Just my opinion. When all said and done we all know the old sane. “How you get your man is how you lose your man”. On that note ONLY GOD CAN JUDGE

    Peace

  • Terri

    Man, Alicia Keys used to be my absolute favorite singer. No more. I wish Mashonda the best.

  • cm

    Mashonda, I totally feel U, I too have gone thru this exact same situtaion (other than the fame) & it hurt like hell. keep in mind it was 5yrs ago. & every time I allow my child to go over 'there' now I still feel it. that feeling might not ever go but U have 2 move on Mama! Stop talking about it, fueling it on! Let it go, she's pregnant & that child is going to be your son's sister/brother & you can't let your pain be seen by your son! U gotta be stronger than that! bcuz it will eventually affect your son. Let him see who his dad is by his actions on his own. Not by stuff U KEEP saying that one day he will be able to read it. & how will that affect him??? Let God & Let Go! I Promise it get's better!

  • wtfever

    I admire Mashonda. I agree that she should be able to tell her side of the story. Let's be honest with ourselves guys, I know I have been played on by a man and I wasnt married. It hurt, I was bitter, felt disrespected and our stories in the end never matched. I would (knowingly) mess with a man in a "situation", a relationship, with a wife, EVER! I believe in You put out there in the universe what you want to receive back. Best of Luck, Love and Success Mashonda

  • wtfever

    TYPO** I would not ever (knowingly) mess with someones man or husband

  • Sunshinejoy

    MaShonda is an exceptional example of cl*****! Alicia Keys didn't destroy her home....as much as her Ex-Husband did! The fact that she has realized that you cannot control the actions of others but move forward in your own life with dignity, courage and faith speaks volumes to this woman's character. I wish you all the happiness that the universe has coming your way! Peace and Many Blessings to you and your children.

  • Perfect

    If her marriage was successful, she would take all the credit. When it failed neither Swizz or her took the responsibility for it's failure.

    She tried to control people which you can not. You can only control yourself.

    She is a p*****ive aggressive behavior.

  • The Truth

    This is her side of the truth. This is not the entire truth. I whole lot is missing.

    Divorce happens every day! People go through worst in their life. She lucky!

    Stop blaming everyone but yourself for your failures in life. You learn and move on.

  • Qianna Taylor

    I think there nothing wrong with love but there's something wrong with being disrespectful. I feel Alicia thought Lil Mo was wrong for coming on stage with her and Jay Z , that's nothing compared to how handle this with that woman's husband. They may be in love but what about the RESPECT. I guess that goes out the door if your in love huh????

  • just saying

    @ maya dont make this a race thing everybody cheats regardless of color what we need to do is make a pill for these cheating men to control their desires and women in general need to stop messing with married men... or if you do cheat be honest about it with your wife

  • Luna

    This is Mashonda side of the story. This isn't the truth the whole truth and nothing but the truth.

    She hasn't taken the responsibility for the failure of her marriage. Both her and her husband destroyed their union–no one else.

  • nicki

    I've read in interviews where Swizz stated that Mashonda was a great mother, so NOW ALL OF A SUDDEN she wouldn't let him have any contact with his son or tried to limit his contact with his son (a son born of an affair that he had while still with Mashonda). Swizz Beatz is a liar and a serial cheater. He & Alicia went to London in April because he had to take a DNA test for a lady who has a son that looks just like him and the DNA test results proved that he is indeed the child's father. So while with Alicia and Mashonda he still found the time to cheat with another woman and impregnate her too!!!!! Does this douchebag even know the word CONDOM?!?!

    Mashonda has shown a considerable amount of restraint because if it was me, I would have beat the F*** out of him and her. AKeys had been to their home and has had dinner with Swizz and Mashonda when they ALL worked on one of her albums so, yeah it was like a double edged sword when she found out that they were really together. If Swizz wasn't happy, he should have filed for divorce before he starting seeing Alicia on a personal level. They have been rumored as having an affair since 2007......but they always said they were just "working" together and NOTHING was going on.

    BTW Alicia, be careful girl cuz his money is NOT as long as yours and he does have an outstanding IRS debt to the tune of $2.2 million dollars.........now you know he gone need to handle that for him......LMAO!!!

  • Donna

    This story gets more interesting as more time goes by. First of all, I read that Swizz cheated on Mashonda while she was pregnant and in turn impregnated the other woman. If this is true then this was the first indication that their relationship wasn't meant to be. I would've headed for the hills then but that is how I would've reacted. I don't know when Swizz and Alicia hooked up because there is Mashonda's side, Swizz's side and the truth. If Alicia slept with that man when he was still married then Alicia will have to deal with that one day. Karma is a beyotch ! I don't wish ill will on anyone but you do have to answer for actions.

  • PrincessD.I.E

    Damn I feel for Mashonda! Its nothing like having your heart broken, and then even worse have your heart broken in public by a batch more famous than you!! I have a feeling Swizz got his big gonzo nose wide open when he met Ms. Keys and I know when he had the chance to hit it..it was done..all over! See I have a feeling what happened was that Keys didnt know what was really going on wit Swizz n Mashonda situation but then she was too deep in love wit his oogly a$$ she didn't care she already pi$$ed on him n marked him as her territory..got a gut full of fetus and err"thang!

    But everyone we all know there is 3 sides to a story: His side...Her side...and the TRUTH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    mashonda looks like an evil bit-----whr------mashonda is full of evil. Swizz and mashonda had problems for 10 years . mashonda is proving that she is worthless and disgusting.

    mashonda is Selling stories for money and continuing to work tactics to get attention. STOP THESE INTERVIEWS OLD WORTHLESS GOAT--

    ALICIA AND SWIZZ ARE BLESSED AND ENJOY LIFE

    mashonda cannot let go and appears to have psychoses, mood swings, and altered behaviors. mashonda is showing guilt for her wrong doings. I can state that Swizz was unhappy and miserable with mashonda. Good- Swizz is out of her life and has moved up to a better life.

    mahsonda stop this lying and exaggerating
    SEPARATION MEANS GOOD-BYE MASHONDA

    LEGAL SEPARATION MEANS GOOD-BYE MASHONDA

  • sunshine

    Mashonda is such a strong woman and very cl*****y I know most females would have handled that differently...I like Alicia but she was wrong for that one!

  • dani

    I'm sorry, but the whole ordeal has RUINED Alicia Keys for me. Because it's like, your music doesn't match your reality. It's just not cl*****y.

    And she's not just pregnant? Have you guys seen her? She's like 7 months pregnant or something. It's just NOT cl*****y.

    I've tried to go back and listen to her music, but now her music doesn't really represent anything but musical-love cliches.

    And, I mean.... he WILL do the same thing to her.

    • Sandy

      Oh please, none of us are ever going to know exactly what went down and it's not even our business. It's a shame someone decided to make all this so public. When you're hurt you can do some pretty strange things, but when you want revenge you can go crazy. Add to that wanting notoriety, and well I don't think Alicia stood a chance. Yes, as Mashonda stated she knew of AK and Swizz, so evidently it had been going on for a while and evidently she didn't have a problem with it or she would not have went to that party. Crazy. Also AK and Swizz must have feltt confident enough with their relationship being OK with her to invite Ms Mashonda to that party. If they didn't think she was OK with it, why would they have invited her and why on earth would Mashonda go if she were so upset about their relationship? Wonder who thought up the little backstabbing plan? Hope Mashonda has what she wants now. She seems like one sneaky person to me. I would have as little to do with her as possible. I would never, never trust such a seemingly evil person who tries to seem so kind. She got her publicity, she got her book, she even got her TV show, all that she wasn't interested in. Ha, gotta laugh.

    we can not make a person want to be with us...when they don't want you, be quiet...let it go...

  • Momma Meah

    Mishonda keep your head up. What ever excuse Swizz comes up with on why he got another woman pregnant while being married to someone else he is wrong. Why would you marry a woman who didn't like your son????? (If that is even true) You know when someone doesn't like your child, you can see it, if you're paying attention. If you want out, then be a man and let your wife know what time it is, do the paperwork and end it just as legal as you began it. Alicia fell in love with a married man, okay, but she could have used protection until the divorce was final. She looks to be well along in her pregnancy and was proud to announce it to the world not thinking of the hurt that it would cause to the wife of the person she is pregnant by or her child that had to hear about it on the TV. She didn't even care how his wife felt. I wish her and Swizz well with their relationship. I wish Mishanda well also and hope she will learn to get past the humiliation and blatant disrespect of a person she has to see on TV and hear on the radio every day. We all have to learn to be happy with ourselves what ever the situation is. Look to God for strength in all that we do and He will give it to you.

  • Insight

    Alicia Keys a homewrecker? Really? Wow! I am so sad to hear that she couldnt find her own man and had to borrow someone elses. Because that is exactly what she is doing, borrowing this LOSER until he decides to A) go back HOME or B) move on and impregnate another dummy.

    As one of the previous posters said, KAMA will take care of all of this. Alicia, don't get too attached to this guy as it will only be a matter of time before he skips out with someone else.

    Poor unborn child...

  • renee

    ALL THE MONEY SHE MAKES AND THAT'S THE BEST SHE COULD DO..POOR HER ALL MONEY NO BRAINS.AND TO GET PREGNANT.GLAD MY MONEY DON'T LIKE HER MUSIC THAT WELL .DON'T THINK THE MARRIAGE WAS ALL THAT.MOST MARRIAGES MEAN MORE TO THE WOMEN THEN THE MAN.HE'S GETTING THE BEST PART.. A NURSE AN A PURSE.

  • Diva

    First of all, No woman can come and take another woman's husband! The thing is, men just dont leave their wife unless their sh** is jacked up in the first place..... Think about how many women stand by a married man's side and he NEVER leave his wife no matter how many tricks she do in the bedroom. I have been on both sides of the coin and I must say neither side is kool. Men need to just say, if its truly over, then close the door before you open another door in your life with someone else, it really is just plain selfish.

  • PRINCESS

    I USED TO LOVE A KEYS...NOW I FEEL SHE IS A HEARTLESS B**CH!!!!!! THE WAY YOU GET A MAN IS THE WAY YOU HAVE TO KEEP ONE. NOW THAT YOU ALL (FUNNY LOOKING A** SWIZZ BEATZ) DON'T HAVE TO CREEP. WILL IT BE AS FUN OR AS EXCITING? 1 MORE THOUGHT...WILL YOU BE SINGING "UNTHINKABLE" WHEN HE GETS WITH ANOTHER WOMAN ON YOUR BUMPY FACE *****.......(TRIFLING)

  • mrs.rich

    I am a married woman and I would be hurt if some other woman was in our relationship. I don't think AK broke their marriage i think it was already broken. A marriage cannot be destroyed if both parties want it to work. If AK did this she will get her punishment,believe it. As for as her going to a birthday party because he ask you to go that only made her feel he still care. he only wanted her to move on so he could move on. I would not have attend because he ask me; no .The problem I have with AK is that if he is conflicted then she should have back up and gave them time to make it work ,but if he told her it was over and he was getting a divorce then the marriage is over.;it is just a matter of time before the paper are served. If the marriage is over she is a woman falling in love with a married man and he telling her he wants her and by all the information I 'm reading and could be incorrect but it stated he was through with Mashonda and she was giving up. He is marrying AK and they have a famiy on the way if thing were done proper and all will work out find if not then AK ,karma will get you. I cannot judge nor should I . I like AK music and i will continue to buy it a few people with not but it won't hurt her sales and Mashonda just go on with your life and what meant for you BELIEVE you will get what is meant for you. Peace

  • Me002

    Mashonda for one, shut up and go away. You didn't totally married - and your soon to be EX-husband invited you to his birthday party to meet his new lady. Either you are the MOST dumbest broad on this planet or you have something else up your sleeve. All parties involved need to move on, put a fork in it, it's a done deal.........

  • DEALW/IT

    Mashonda, what you and ALL the other women in the world need to understand: “Bottom line, the rule is, if you're messing with somebody, you don't know they're married, and you found out they're married if you come into any contact with that wife, leave it alone… respect the woman, respect the wife. Like I said before, it was an ego thing for me. I'm being f*cking disrespected, *****ody respects me, this is my husband, this is my family, this girl thinks she can just do anything she thinks she wants to. And that's what I dealt with for a while, until I gave up.”

    ****When a man wants to move on, he moves on. *****ody gives a damn about what wifey or the girlfriend wants. It takes two people to be in a relationship. If this man is telling you that he doesn't want to be with you anymore and you continue to fight for your marriage then it's on YOU. Women we can't keep crying over a man no longer wanting to be with us. Yes he lied, Yes he cheated and Yes he may have UPGRADED from his point of view, but you can't fix NOTHING in your house that is not broken if the individual who broke it wants to keep it broken. Women we say we want equal rights and then the minute a man comes and break OUR hearts then we want sympathy, we want other people to feel our pain. Well, I have taken my last drink for you ex-wife of SB, he has moved on and I am praying for you that you can do the same. Your side of the story is getting old and the only person who disrespected you was your HUSBAND who no longer wanted you.

  • CMoney

    Well i saw Swiss last week out and i ask him why he'd left Mashonda for Ms Keys.......... and he stated in his song voice about mashonda ....SHE AINT GOT NO MONEY IN THE BANK!!!! LMAO sorry mashonda I still love you ma..... that F*cking KEYS

  • Ms_Ukraine

    Big-ups to Mashonda! He'll get his in the end...

  • Sharon

    This is the dumbest sh*t. You people are acting like this is Daytime Soaps. Why would he invite her? They been separated for YEARS. Why would she go? They been separated for YEARS. The fool who asked the question was setting her up. There is no right answer. This is the same kind of lame half-***** reporting which has most of us giving a rats ***** about if Lohan is going to jail. Gossip self rightousness over someone else business. Get real and pay attention to the important things, before we get left behind.

  • Nicole

    Strong women do real things. I commend her for her strength and honesty. You can't blame anybody for what happen. She's right, it could have went down differently but, it was God's will "it was written". Ending a relationship that you thought would be forever is always a tough pill to swallow but, you HAVE TO learn from the experience and move on. Hopefully, it makes you a better, stronger and more inciteful human being because of it. Kudos Mashonda!

  • I DA PAPPY!!!

    This woman don't hav a reason to lie about another woman takeing her husband,I dont know any woman who would lie about being dumped cuz it's embr*****ing.I been tired to tell people Alicia Keyz wrecked there marrige, Mashonda was the one who told about the exspected affair and remember Alicia tired to say they was only friends, so now she pregnant by her friend and about to marry her friend,yeah right you lil house wrecken b i t c h.When are people gonna learn that when a married man cheats on his wife with them,then he's gonna cheat on them.I already know Alicia has single parent hood ahead of her.

  • NYC Gal

    I side with Mashonda because I think that Alicia Keys should have waited until Swizz Beaks' divorce was final. It doesn't look good that Alicia was messing with a married man and got pregnant for him. Alicia Keys made herself look desperate for a man because Beaks has 3 other kids for 3 different women.

  • Glycel

    I say it's wrong but hey they're in love when you're in love you have to let it be move on mashonda you are beautiful women remember one thing how you get them is how you lose them..............

  • BlackIsBeautiful

    I applaud Mashonda for being the woman A. Keys could never be! She has released it and now the matter is in the hands of GOD! I will never again spend money on A. Keys music! She used the black agenda to sell records, then turned around and slapped the black woman in the face by sleeping with her man. I disagree Mashonda, it wasn't an ego thing, you were disrespected by the one woman that made money preaching it! Oh and an FYI, since the baby was conceived while Swizz BEEKS was married, A. Keys baby is a B-A-S-T-A-R-D and Mashonda's son is covered under the covenant of marriage!

  • BlackIsBeautiful

    And furthermore.. that bird wasn't inlove, that bird was in LUST!! Because love don't cost nothing.. and seems like their so called love cost a lot; it hurt many people! I'm glad Mashonda is cla-ssy! A Keys is an arrogant, disrespectful, homewrecking skank! Black women should be more united against this type of foolishness! We are the most influential beings on earth! Send A Keys a message by not buying her records! I'm NOT!

  • Carol

    Puleeze. Of course you will have people who side with the cheating couple because they have no morals. No one knows what goes on behind CLOSED doors whether they're your favorite celebrity or not. File for a divorce first before dating anyone else. I've read Mashonda's interview when she found out about this relationship too. All I can say is wait and see with this relationship. It is TRUE that if he'll cheat with you, he'll cheat on you. Swizz beats is not done cheating. He seems to love to cheating and making babies.

  • Moresensethanmost

    I'll reserve judgment until Ms. Keys does her interview explaining how she was left to become a single mom, when the odd looking, but obviously charismatic Swizz whatever, does what he apparently does best. Hopefully she will act as dignified as Mashonda has.

  • TEE

    IT SEEMS TO ME THAT MASHONDA & ALICIA BOTH MAY HAVE PROBLEMS. SWIZZ HAD ONE CHILD FROM A PREVIOUS RELATIONSHIP, THEN A CHILD W/ MASHONDA & NOW ALICIA'S HAVING HIS CHILD. IS THIS SOME KIND OF A COMPETITION. THESE WOMEN ARE NUTS. SWIZZ IS HO HOPPIN' LIKE A MFR & LEAVIN' BABIES BEHIND W/ THESE DUMB HO'S. LMAO.jk BUT 4REAL I HOPE HE LEAVES ALICIA TOO AND HOPE THE NEXT WOMAN IS SMART ENOUGH TO NOT HAVE HIS CHILD.

  • C*****

    There is no way any woman can compete with the beauty of Alicia she is one of the most beautiful woman in the world inside and out from what I have seen.

    My heart goes out to Mashonda. I feel she is having sucidal thoughts and hopes she gets some help to resolve this deep pain.

    Swiss beatz is heartless.

    • Sunny D

      What's beautiful in your eyes mite not be beautiful in mine, or the next persons eyes.In africa she would be considered ugly,did you know that???But yes Alicia is beautiful but I have seen some black women as well as white women that look better then her,so no she isn't the most beautiful woman in the world.

  • Bella Qu33n

    Once when I was young -n- dumb I dated a married man, it only lasted a month,cuz I knew it was wrong.Fast forward 15 years later and im still lookn over my shoulders,cuz im about to marry the man of my dreams but im scared to death that its gonna come back to hunt me, it usually does.Alicia is wrong whether or not she had a hand in wreckn there marriage because she didnt wait for the ink to dry. I feel sorry for her ***** child,and I dont mean any disrespect just speakn what others are to scared to say outta there mouths.

    • COOLNCL*****IE

      And the truth has been spoken

  • 1falcon

    For me, the difference between Ak and everyone else, is that she has made a career and millions of dollars on promoting herself as the "Pro Women" queen. Therefore, it makes her come off as phony and fake. Someone who talks about it, or in this case sings about it, but does not walk the walk. We are all human but there is something to be said about "how" you do things. In this situation it seems that many emotional decisions were made and not a lot of thought went into the consequences of the actions being taken. I pray for all involved, but I will not judge. I will leave that to God. No one is perfect, but we should always strive to do better. Maybe their story will save others in similar situations.

  • Lady Tee

    Everyone needs to mind their own business and let Swizz and Keys be.! Whats done is done and Who is Mashonda anyway? Now where near as successful or beautiful. No comparison with the N.Y baby we got mad skills on every level. I don't think Keys stole her husband they were already over, once you are seperated it is a done deal. Obviously somethin aint right and its time to move on. Keys aint no less of a singer with songs that have meanin and Swizz aint no less of a dope as beat layer and hype man that has millions wit keys millions while Mashonda or whoever she is is trin to get millions. Haters get a clue!!!!! Mad love Swizz and Keys show these haters how its done!!!

  • Silky_Silky_noww

    @Not So "Lady Tee"
    U dont know a thing about the word "obvious" do "obviously" u would know that Swizz aint got no money, its been on the news all week. He owe IRS like 2mill,and u say u from NY where the news usually hit the streets faster then "jail".U talkn stupid, cause any smart person knows Mashonda gone get money regardless, she got a "CHILD" by him. You reap what u sew and Alicia Keys getting it back "already" cause she got to pay "Her Husbands" IRS debate, plus his ex-wifes alimony, if any and definitely her step-kids support payments. No man,woman or child worth losen "Fame & Fortune"

  • Kim

    Well if I was Mashonda, I wouldn't be worried becuse alicia just took a problem right off her hands. Look at all the kids he has and plus he got to pay millions to the IRS. Alicia will help him. I don't see why Alicia would want to marry him because he cheated on his wife before and he has a baby overseas and another one over here. He has a few kids out there. It got to be the d#$%. His d#%$ must be made of gold.

  • shegryl1

    in india or somewhere over ther in another country i heard all a man has to do is say to his wife i divorce you 3 times and its a done deal....quit crying over spilled milk Mashonda ,...its a wrap and like someone else just said you aint got enuff money or looks to trump Alicia so move along.., hit em up 4 child support keep it moving,sorry about the way things unfolded but all things are in Gods hands.Congrats to the newlyweds!

  • Anita

    The same thing he did to Mashonda...... the same thing he is going to do to Alicia. And there is NOTHING she can say about it because she knew what kind of a man he was BEFORE she married him!

  • Betty Crocker

    @Samantha
    Again U r just another person who dont have your facts straight,Swiss and Mrs.Keys been outed for messing around while Mashonda & Swiss was together 2 years ago,when they asked Alicia she said they was "just friends",go google.Your statement u made about "some people not being joined by GOD" is far from the truth baby,cuz when ever,who ever,
    where ever you get married doesnt matter,when u take that vowel before God is what does.If Mashonda married for the wrong reason or did shady s h it in the marriage,I dont know but that's not mine, nor "Alicia" place to come between a woman and her husbands problems.Like I said before I believed "Mashonda" then and I believe her now,cause I'm a woman(not married) and I know we not gonna lie about a woman taken our man unless it's true cause it's embarr*****ing to admit.You have to imagine your self in the other persons shoes before you jump to conclusions.

  • WhoRYou

    Let he who is witout sin,cast the first stone. Thou shall have no other Gods before me. People, stop idolizing these socalled celeberties. Enjoy the p*****ion in their work but, stop putting them on these pedastals and you won't be so disappointed to find out that they are merly people from next door who got blessed enough to get you to by into their hype. Right or wrong is not for me or you to judge. We all will answrr for our sins. Whether we continue to support these people or not, what's done in the dark shall be exposed in the light.

  • http://http//www.facebook.com/tjkamama Kamama

    I'm speechles,not without happiness or happiness...simply speechless.But life goes on @ d end of d day,wether we wish people luck or not.Swizz is a player,period.

  • Sophia

    I'm just glad that things are cooling down. Hopefully, they all can make it a peaceful and reasonable relationship so that way the son is happy. But, if I were A. Keys, I would tread with caution cause Swizz is a player!!!

  • CRAZYSTUFF

    OK, so what she is saying is it was OK until she realized it was serious? That's absolutely ridiculous. No wonder he didn't respect her and kept playing his games. He knew she didn't care. Look at the other times. If M would have loved him THAT much she would've had a problem with him being with any other woman regardless. For all anyone knew she was OK with it, then she just changed her mind and decided it would benefit her better to be hurt, get a little sympathy and publicity for herself. People are so strange. Wonder if she had her side affairs also? You just can't always go by what people say or what you read. Sometimes the truth is hard to find. But even though she stated she wasn't even thinking about a book or interested in publicity for herself, she now has just that. HMMM? TV show, book, etc. She's never been so popular. Everybody knows her now. Thanks Alicia from her would be in order.

  • Candy4yuu

    @myopion...You ain't neva lied!...what goes around,comes back around!...You were so on pointe with this one.You have got to pay close attention to how the person doing the "cheating" is...because the truth of the matter is in time...They will do the same...TO YOU :(

  • Nubian_Goddess 101

    My heart cries pitifully when i heard Mashonda's story. I believe that man and woman who are married should stay faithful to one another. Obviously Swizz Beatz cheated on her with his mistress, Alicia Keys. And then Swizz abandoned his wife to be with his mistress, from what the story above says. The Evidence doesn't make Alicia Keys look so hot, but she doesn't care. Seems as if she is head over heels for him becuase he is cute, rich, talented, and probably infatuated with her.
    The situation has sin pored all over it. Welcom to hearth. This is the Human CONDITION. God FORBID that this ever happen to me or anyone that i know. I am not here to judge, JUST restating what the story says and feeling sorry for Mashonda. God bless you Meshonda. Alicia, Swizz, i hope that Karma has mercy on both of your souls.
