However, Kendu adamantly believes he’s entitled to a big chunk of Mary’s change. For those who missed it, Kendu sparked a media firestorm when he demanded a whopping $110,000 a month in spousal support along with a laundry list of other seemingly outlandish requests including $5,000 a month for his parents and funds to cover expenses for his children. Needless to say, the “Not Gon’ Cry” singer isn’t going down without a fight. Now, Mary has reportedly opened up about another jaw-dropping allegation against Kendu and if it’s proven to be true, her estranged husband may be fighting a losing battle.

Blowing Money?:

According to People magazine, Mary is reportedly accusing Kendu of blowing a staggering $420,000 on his lover. That’s right. Kendu is said to have spent $420,000 of Mary’s money on his new girlfriend. It has been reported that Kendu wrote off extravagant spending as “travel expenses.” While such a staggering amount may not have raised any flags when he was managing Mary and traveling with her, such spending raises lots of speculation now since he’s no longer employed and fighting to receive $110,000 a month, which would only equate to approximately one-fourth of what he’s been accused of spending.

Setting the Record Straight:

In the legal documents that have been made public, Mary has made it clear, she has no desire to be held responsible for Kendu’s alleged financial obligation to his parents and children from a previous relationship. By now, everyone knows Mary and Kendu did not have children together, so the Grammy Award-winning singer does not believe it’s a financial obligation she should be held accountable for.

“I am not responsible for supporting [Martin’s] parents and his children from another relationship which he lists as ongoing monthly expenses,” Blige said in the legal papers.

The latest report follows a string of reports about Kendu’s financial requests. Mary discussed the pending divorce during an interview on Power 105.1. She revealed a lot of the issues that contributed to the divorce centered around “overwhelming disrespect.”

“I can sense that I’m not what you want anymore,” she said. “Because now you start throwing questions around like, ‘Why don’t you cook?’ I haven’t been cooking. ‘Why you don’t wear your hair like that?’ I never wore my hair like this before … You start to realize that this man doesn’t want you and he’s just gone all the time and you’re by yourself in the relationship.”

Hopefully, the divorce drama is over soon so Mary can move on with her life.

Back in 2009, Charlie grieved the loss of his wife, Tisha Taylor. During a past interview, Charlie admitted the impact of his wife’s death was devastating and it changed him forever. He also revealed what she did just days before her tragic death. “I came home and she’s in the kids’ room, crying. That’s when she told me. Cervical cancer. You don’t really grasp it. When the person tells you they’re going to die, you go crazy. You become a different person from the moment you hear those words.”

His Wife’s Illness:

Charlie explained how disheartening his wife’s illness was because she took her health seriously. Then, he explained things from a different perspective noting how some people live long, fulfilling lives despite harmful practices like drug and alcohol abuse. “A young woman like that — don’t drink, don’t smoke, don’t do drugs. I know people that’s ninety who do all of that.”

Despite her heartbreaking condition, she even had the strength to plan her own funeral just days before she died.

“She’s a very organized woman. When she died, all the arrangements had been made. She made her own arrangements.”

I’m Not Okay, You’re Never Okay:

Charlie also admitted something about death that most grieving people can probably agree with: Losing someone special isn’t something you ever get used to; You just learn to “live with it.” Instead of denying his feelings, the comedian/actor shared his true feelings. “I’m not okay; you’re never really okay you just learn to live with it. That’s something monumental, losing somebody that close in your life. It happened to my children, and me you don’t get used to[it] and you don’t get over it,” Charlie said.

He also shared his perspective of love and what it really means to meet and connect with the one person you refer to as “your soulmate.” “We fit,” Murphy explained. “I don’t believe that you can meet another person that fits just like that. She wasn’t even another person. She’s a mirror, you know what I mean. It was like that for twenty years.”

Charlie Murphy is survived by his three children, two of which he had with Tisha, and one from a previous relationship.

]]> Do you remember having celebrity crushes? Tell us who was your Old School celebrity childhood crush. (If your’s isn’t pictured, tell us who it is). There are way to many to name, but here are a few:

 

Micheal Jackson, Bobby Brown, Malcolm Jamal Warner, Jane Kennedy, Billy Dee Williams, Jody Watley,
Jackee’ Harry, Al B. Sure, Pam Grier, Janet Jackson, Marvin Gaye, BernNadette Stanis, but if your crush isn’t listed, tell us!

What do our celebrity crushes say about us or our significant others? Do they mean anything? Are they indicative of “types” we have, unfulfilled longing, secret desires, or just a random selection from the vast amount of celebrities paraded in front of us, because we can?

I submit they are a way of talking through every facet of ourselves and our needs and outsourcing what cannot be possibly met by any one person to the imaginary boyfriends in our heads. Uh, right?

What about when you find out your significant other’s crushes are nothing at all like you? Will that change how you feel about them? Interested in knowing what you think. I love the idea of meeting a celebrity crush, but that hasn’t happened yet…what about you?
