She is the mama of a child(ren). What is wrong with that? Several years ago, she referred to Barack Obama at the 2004 Democratic National Convention where he gave the keynote speech, and as her “baby daddy”. No one said a word then. The Obamas were both quite mum on this “baby mama” issue when it came out weeks ago for obvious reasons. It’s just not a big deal. It’s a term of endearment that many black couples, married or not, say to each other. Perhaps, it was a big deal since it was FOX NEWS or when the NY Times wrote an actual story breaking down what the word means. That was such a 1993 move. The words “baby daddy” and “baby mama” are all over the celebrity magazines—OK!, Life & Style, In Touch, US, and more. It’s cute, it’s fun, it’s what’s happening. Thank you to Obama and ‘em for not turning this into a march of some kind. Oh, my bad, that’s Jesse and ‘em.
When I read about this in the papers I was shocked at how much they were making a big deal. I guess since it came from FOX, but what if it came from Jesse Jackson? LOL….
