RUSSELL SIMMONS' FORMER GIRLFRIEND CLEARS UP RUMORS ON THEIR BREAK-UP.


Russell Simmons' former girlfriend has blasted reports the hip-hop mogul's controlling ways led to their split - calling him her "best friend". Former Star Search model Porschla Coleman came to Simmons' defense last Friday (7.11.2008), hitting back at claims his demanding personality put a strain on their relationship. She tells the New York Daily News, "I am not prepared to go into detail, but Russell is my best friend. There is no anger on either of our parts. It was a mutual decision. We just decided to be friends, and we're both very happy." Coleman adds Simmons has even helped her redecorate her new apartment, now that she is moving out of the pair's shared home. She says, "It's around the corner, and he helped me pick it (the furniture) out." The couple began dating in 2007 but split last month (June 2008) after Russell's former wife, Kimora Lee Simmons was granted sole custody and the legal authority to make all decisions in relation to their kids' health, education and welfare. In addition, the model will also receive the $480,000-a-year in child support as per her request. Simmons is expected to continue paying the sum until 2019 for Ming Lee, 6, and 2022 for Aoki, 4.

Another insider said Russell has made his moves, too, and is "back to playing the field."

CELEB COUPLE CANDIDS: REGGIE BUSH & KIM KARDASHIAN AT KOI; KIMORA LEE & DJIMON SHOPPING IN BEVERLY HILLS.

Reggie Bush and Kim Kardashian were lensed by the paparazzi while leaving Koi restaurant last week.



==============

Kimora Lee Simmons and her boo Djimon recently spent a day shopping in Beverly Hills...something she can do even more easily now that she and Russell have finalized their divorce. Last month, Kimora was awarded sole custody of her two daughters, Ming, 8 and Aoki, 5, with former husband Russell Simmons. According to court documents, Russell is allowed to have the two young girls for one week out of every eight. He will get to spend extra time with them for summer vacations and holidays while Kimora has been granted the legal authority to make all decisions in relation to their kids' health, education and welfare. In addition, the model will receive the $480,000-a-year in child support as per her request. Russell is expected to continue paying the sum until 2019 for Ming Lee, and 2022 for Aoki. But that's not all - Russell has also been ordered to provide a car worth at least $60,000 for the use and benefit of his children, and the vehicle must be replaced every two years.

However, in an open letter to various media outlets, Russell has insisted he is happy with the arrangements because they are in the best interests of their kids and he claims there is no bitterness between him and his estranged wife. He says, "I want to say Kimora is a excellent mother and is doing a great job with them... Regarding the money, my kids live a tremendous life. They do have lots of security, nannies, educators, special programs, travel, chefs, on and on. Their mother manages all of those luxuries and I'm happy to provide for that."

KIMORA ON BEING BRANDED A DIVA: 'IN REALITY I'M A DEDICATED MOTHER AND A VERY KIND, FUNNY AND HARDWORKING PERSON.'


"I hear the craziest things, like, 'She has to have a champagne glass filled within a quarter inch of the lip. The reality, is I'm a dedicated mother [to daughters Ming Lee, 8, and Aoki Lee, 5] and a very kind, funny and hardworking person. My reality-TV show helps to shed a bit of light, but even that's glamorized. Sometimes people who don’t know me say really cruel things that are way off base. But you can't care too much about what people think of you. You have to establish your own set of core values: honor, respect, tenacity, intelligence and humor and live by them. Do your best, and live with the repercussions of your choices – good or bad."

--Kimora Lee Simmons, speaking to Giant magazine (June/July 2008 issue) about constant reports that she is a bona fide diva. So remember folks - every time you spot Kimora decked in diamonds demanding that her staff cater to her every need, she’s just being hardworking!

LL COOL J. TO LAUNCH NEW CHILDREN CLOTHING LINE FOR SEARS.

Following in the footsteps of Kimora Lee Simmons, rapper LL Cool J has signed up to design a range of childrens' clothing for fashion chain Sears. The star - real name James Todd Smith - has teamed up with the clothing giant to create a line for young boys and girls which will be sold in over 450 stores across North America. And Smith - who previously launched a men's line called Todd Smith - admits he turned to the women in his life for help in coming up with the designs. He says, "I was raised by a matriarch, I have a wife and three daughters, so I know what women are looking for when they shop for clothes. Clothes have to make a woman feel good, relaxed and sexy. We are going to be constantly looking at fine-tuning the fit and we'll get it right."

Smith has three children with Simone, his wife of 12 years - son Najee, 18, and daughters Italia, 17, Samaria, 12, and Nina, seven.

RUSSELL SIMMONS CHALLENGES KIMORA'S REQUEST FOR SOLE CUSTODY OF THEIR DAUGHTERS MING LEE & AOKI LEE IN DIVORCE PROCEEDINGS.

I have a feeling things are about to get a bit nasty mixed in with loads of dramatic drama in the Russell and Kimora Lee divorce proceedings. According to People magazine, Simmons has filed a response to his estranged wife Kimora Lee's divorce petition in a Los Angeles court Tuesday. The hip-hop mogul, whose legal papers cite irreconcilable differences, is seeking joint physical and legal custody of his and Lee's daughters, Ming, 8, and Aoki, 5. Who knew it would come to this? The couple married in 1998. In her divorce filing in March, Lee, 33, requested that Simmons, 50, get "reasonable child visitation ... to be accompanied at all times by the children's nanny and security personnel." Both parties are asking the court to deny spousal support for the other. At the time of their initial separation in 2006, Simmons said in a statement: "Kimora and I will remain committed parents and caring friends with great love and admiration for each other."

Lee is now dating Djimon Hounsou. The model turned mogul has been dogged recently by rumors that she is expecting a child with Hounsou. At an appearance in Chicago earlier last month, she told reporters. "I'm in the paper every single week – that I had a fight with my ex-husband, or that I was mad at one of his girlfriends, or that I'm pregnant, or that I demand Fiji water … Lies upon lies upon lies."

Simmons is dating 25-year-old certified yoga instructor Porschla Coleman.

According to People magazine, Kimora Lee Simmons has finally filed divorce papers to end her marriage to Russell Simmons yesterday (3.25.2008) in Los Angeles County Superior Court.

RUSSELL SIMMONS' GIRLFRIEND, PORSCHLA IN KING MAGAZINE; TALKS KIMORA, GOLD DIGGING & OLDER MEN.

Russell Simmons' first post-Kimora-girlfriend, 25-year-old model and aspiring yoga instructor, Porschla Coleman has nothing but love for Simmons' estranged wife and fellow model Kimora Lee Simmons. In an interview with King magazine, Coleman defends Kimora's bossy, mean and holier-than-thou attitude stating Kimora is nothing like the tough woman she's portrayed as in the media. Oh, really now? Coleman says, "I don't have much interaction with Kimora, but the times that I have been around her, she's very cordial. I spend a lot of time with their girls, and they're a beautiful reflection of her. I hear rumors that people say about her, but she's been nothing but a doll to me." As a matter of fact, Porschla says she has no need whatsover to watch her back when it comes to Kimora.

And for those of you who think you're hurting Coleman's feelings by referring to her as a certified golddigger, think again. The beauty, who has been dating Russell for the past 10 months says she is not concerned and/or worried about other folks perception because at the end of the day, she knows where her heart is. 'I made a connection with Russell that people will never understand. No one is gonna get in the way of how I feel about him. People are gonna say what they wanna say, and I can't control that, but I know where my heart is.' As for Simmons' and Coleman's significant age difference (like Kimora, at 50-years-old, he's also old enough to be Porschla's papa), Coleman claims, 'Well, bottom line, I'm an adult. It's my decision in what I choose to do. Growing up, I was always the more mature one; I've had this older mentality. I've always played 'Mama' in every situation, so it was only natural that I ended up with an older guy.'
