Diamond,Tanzania's,nay East Africa's most popular singer,just became a daddy. And he even created an Instagram page for his daughter (What stupidity!) His babu mama? The old and tired Ugandan courtesan Zari Hassan. And the brouhaha that is now surrounding her paternity is what has been keeping bloggers and sleaze-lovers busy the past two weeks.
Zari's former lovers(she's had many) King Lawrence and some chap named Ivan Ssemwanga are now coming out claiming that Diamond is NOT Latiffah's real daddy. And that her daddy is actually Ivan who is said to be Zari's ex-hubby.
The claims and counter-claims keep coming... And there's even some court papers that have been processed calling for a legal inquest into the legitimate paternity of baby Tiffah. And she's not even a month old yet! Oh,the life of the rich and famous.
For his part,Diamond,who was seen in the Country yesterday kicking it with akina Maina wa Kageni and American RnB star Neyo,has vehemently defended his trashy baby mama and vowed that he is the toto's TRUE DADDY.
Well... Before Diamond,there were many others. Many many others...
Here,Check Out 10 Celebrity Dads who were embroiled in bitter courtroom battles to prove that they were-or not- the REAL Daddys to their Children.
1. EDDY MURPHY.
Everyone knows Eddy Murphy. And everyone LOVES him too. Eddy is one of America's top film stars and stand-up comics and circa 2007,Eddie and his ex-girlfriend Mel B,formerly of British pop band Spice Girls,were embroiled in a very public and bitter court battle after it emerged that Mel B was pregnant and that Eddie Murphy was the baby daddy. Eddie vehemently denied that he was behind her pregnancy. And it got even nastier. But Mel B knew damn well that that baby was Eddies and after her birth in 2007 the battle became too stiff that they both went to court. And after long,hard months of deliberations and DNA tests,Eddie was revealed to be the REAL daddy of Angel Iris. Well,the madness died down and the superstar comedian started supporting Mel B and little Angel Iris since then. He still does so to date.
2. Matthew Knowles
Mathew is the biological dad of The World's Number One pop Star Beyonce. Now,around 2009,Beyoncé's Mom Tina Knowles filed for divorce after it emerged that her hubby,Matthew,had fathered a love-child with some woman called Alexsandra Wright. Mathew denied knowledge of the woman. Or the child. And as usual,things had to go to Court. It was later revealed,after endless courtroom showdowns and DNA tests,that Mathew was indeed the father of Nixon, the baby boy. And in 2011,Tina kicked Mathew of of their home as their marriage officially ended. And Beyonce fired him as her manager. Oops. Today,Mathew still supports his son Nixon but he lives a horrible horrible life in the cold. Oh,the fruits of love.
3. Padma Lakshmi
Now,this Top Chef hostess got pregnant. And then gave birth to some beautiful beautiful girl Krishna in 2010. Padma refused to say who the baby daddy was and her then-boyfriend financier Theodore Forstmann started claiming that Krishna was his daughter. And acting like her REAL father. But Padma's ex-boyfriend Adam Dell moved to court to prove that the girl was actually his and not Theodore's. Well,a paternity test was conducted and it was finally revealed that Dell was the ACTUAL daddy. Wooiiiyeee Theodore. Dell ultimately won extra custody rights and visitation rights too. Bam!
4. Steve Jobs
The late Apple mogul denied for two years that he’d gotten his girlfriend Chrisann Brennan pregnant when he was 23. Jobs even swore in a court document that he could not have fathered Brennan’s daughter,Lisa, because he was "sterile and infertile." Haha. But paternity testing finally revealed that Jobs, who had gone on to marry Laurene Powell and have three other children, was also Lisa’s dad. And the game changed. Jobs was forced to support Brennan and her daughter Lisa till the day he died of cancer. And infact,Lisa did look a little too similar to her Dad Jobs. Well,the Apple doesn't fall too far from the tree... (pun intended)
5. Sylvester Stallone
In 1994, supermodel and future reality TV star Janice Dickinson thought her then-boyfriend, Sylvester Stallone, was the father of her daughter, Savannah. Stallone dumped his other girl model Jennifer Flavin, planning to wed Dickinson and make a family. But a DNA test proved Janice’s former boyfriend, Michael Birnbaum, was actually Savannah’s daddy instead. Oh shit! The movie star eventually returned to Flavin, marrying her in 1997 and having three daughters. Oh,isn't Flavin a sweet sweet girl!?
6. Jude Law
The British actor,best known for movies such as Spy and Sherlock Holmes and also for cheating on actress Sienna Miller with his kids’ nanny,became a father for the fourth time after a steamy one-night stand with sexy model Samantha Burke in 2008. Law first violently denied being the girl Sophia’s father,but a paternity test proved otherwise. He eventually separated from his wife Sienna. And started full support of his girl Sophia and mommy Samantha. Oh,the Law is an ass (pun intended)
7. Arnold Schwarzenegger:
After 25 years of a blissful marriage that even saw him ascend as California Governor ,famed action movie star and California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger and wife Maria Shriver split after he admitted he was the father of their housekeeper Mildred Baena's 10-year-old son,Joseph. In fact, Baena was pregnant with The Terminator’s love child at the same time that Shriver was pregnant with their son,Christopher! Waaah! Sema bidii. And in a In Hello! magazine interview,Baena claimed she initially believed Joseph was the son of her estranged husband, whom she was sleeping with around the same time she bedded Schwarzenegger. Man,too much sexual confusion on one household!
8. Anna Nicole Smith
After the sleazy sexy model-and serial gold digger -died in Feb. 2007, her attorney Howard K. Stern and her ex-boyfriend, photographer Larry Birkhead, both claimed to be the father of Smith’s daughter Dannielynn. Bizarrely, Frederic Prinz von Anhalt, the husband of aging actress Zsa Zsa Gabor, also claimed to be the father of the baby girl and threatened to file for custody. Wow! One child! Three fathers! Ok! But in April 2007,after much-publicized media wars and court dates, DNA tests proved Birkhead sired Dannielynn and they’ve been a father/daughter duo ever since. I said it once and I'll say it again,it's easier for a photographer to BANG a model than a lawyer. Sawa Sawa? Good job,Birkhead.
9. Ne-Yo
Hehehe... He's currently in Kenya doing shows and kicking it with Diamond. Isn't that interesting? It obviously is. Well,last October (2014) things got real messy for Atlanta Exes reality star Monyetta Shaw. If you watch her on the new VH1 reality show,then you already know Shaw is Ne-Yo's — aka Shaffer Smith — former fiance and the mother of his two small children. But apparently the R&B star decided that, for whatever reason, he is not so sure about his paternity. He filed a lawsuit in Georgia against Shaw Oct. 1, requesting the court determine if he is legally the father of both of Shaw's children. In other words, Smith wanted a paternity test done. And it was granted. And it was proved in Court that,despite his doubts,he was ACTUALLY the father of his two little kids- boy and a girl. Neyo and Monyetta aren't dating anymore. But he shares custody of the kids with the Reality Show loudmouth. And now he's in the studio recording some song with Diamond...Well..It better involve child paternity drama. It better...
10. Omarion
He's more known in Kenya as the guy behind the popular hit song Post To Be. The song that spawned the much-memefied line 'Eat the booty like groceries'. Now,Omarion broke up with his girlfriend Apryl Jones after Jones REFUSED to take a paternity test to prove that Omarion was really the father of their son Meega. Omarion's mother, it is said,is the one who suggested that Apryl Jones be forced to take a DNA Test. The reasons for the DNA Test is that,Meega,the little boy,looked more like a Mexican child than a black child. And yet Omarion and Jones are both black. Another interesting twist is that,Before Omarion Apryl Jones was dating some Mexican guy and so,Omarion believed that the boy wasn't his. But of that Mexican jamaa. Well,a test was frankly conducted and it was finally revealed that,indeed,Omarion was Meega's dad. But why doesn't he look like daddy? The Mexican guy's D game must have been too strong then! Eish!
Well..Don't sit here enjoying this article...Go confirm whether that baby is actually YOURS!
