Long before Jay wifed up Beyonce, pro athletes had the financial means and Biggie’s same “dreams of cutting an R&B chick.”
Of course, a mutual physical attraction and seven to eight-figure bank accounts were probably a common thread for these 14 athletes and musicians who chopped each other down.

Drake and Serena Williams
Based on recent pictures of her all booed up with Drake, it appears Serena definitely has a type—light-skinned rappers who frequent the gym.
Keri Hilson and Serge Ibaka
We know Keri Hilson has never been a shrinking violet, and after allegedly throwing shade on Beyonce back in the day, she is just as vigilant about clapping back at thirst traps who try to throw it at her man on social media platforms.
Russell Wilson and Ciara
Based on their own celibacy confessions, Russell Wilson and Ciara aren’t chopping each other or anyone else down. But it appears to be just a matter of time for the high-profile couple.
Rihanna and Matt Kemp
MLB slugger and former Dodger Matt Kemp was Rihanna’s most public relationship since Chris Brown. Truthfully, he’s the only dude she actually claimed.
Kelly Rowland and Roy Williams
Well, one of these people is still relevant on the Texas entertainment scene. At one time, Rowland and former Dallas Cowboys wide receiver Roy Williams were engaged. “Were” is the operative word here.
Amar’e Stoudemire and Ciara
Who knows if Amar’e had to deal with the whole celibacy issue too? Based on her past with the former All NBA pivot man, she’s not averse to dating a pro athlete.
Mariah Carey and Derek Jeter
The captain has a roster of former dimes that make his exploits off the baseball diamond more impressive than his hall of fame career as a Yankee.
Iggy Azalea and Nick Young
No one’s outright calling her a racist, but it does seem like Swaggy P is the only brother Iggy has’t outright disrespected yet.
Keyshia Cole and Daniel Gibson
The man they call “Boobie” was popular in Cleveland during LeBron James’ first attempt to bring a championship to Northeast Ohio in the early aughts. Now everyone just knows him as Keyshia Cole’s baby daddy.
Halle Berry and David Justice
These two appeared to be the ultimate power couple upon jumping the broom in 1993, but after allegations of his cheating and her “excess baggage” it was a wrap.
Tamia and Grant Hill
The closest thing the NBA has to a real life Cliff and Claire Huxtable is still going strong after tying the knot in 1999.
Trina and Kenyon Martin
Ask former NBA power forward Kenyon Martin about the origins of that red lipstick kiss tattoo that used to adorn his neck if you dare.
Common and Serena Williams
Word on the streets is that Serena is the reason Common and Drake began their short-lived beef in the first place.
Jamelia Niela Davis and Darren Byfield
Unless you follow UK pop and R&B, you’ve probably never heard of Jamelia Niela Davis. Soccer heads might remember Jamaican forward Darren Byfield, who was briefly hitched to Davis from 2008 through 2009.
