The Future Reality Show
We’re glad that Ciara is taking the high road and getting along with all three of Future’s baby mama’s, but this Instagram publicity shot of the whole team feels…awkward. Does anyone smell a reality show in the mix?

The Ignored Warning Signs
The men most of us date aren’t famous enough for their business to be out in the street. But when K. Michelle hooked up with Lance Stephenson, nearly everyone on Twitter tried to warn her that he was still dating his baby mama. K. Michelle ignored the gossip and broke up with Lance a few months later — after he cheated.

The Surprise Baby Mama
Gabrielle Union isn’t the only woman to find out her man had a baby while they were “on a break.” My question is do you think Gabby would have stayed if Dwayne Wade wasn’t a baller?

The Radio Blast
Lamar Odom is already in rough shape and that’s never the time you want to hear your baby mama pop up on a morning radio show to tell the world that she’ll never date you again.

Doubling Up
It’s never a good look when your baby’s father allegedly has another girl pregnant at the same time as you. We don’t blame Evelyn Lozada for not wanting to talk about how busy Carl Crawford is.

Mistaken Identity
After Toya Wright was arrested for failing to pay her speeding tickets, what she was really upset about was that media outlets kept calling her Lil’ Wayne’s baby mama.
Toya was quick to point out that she and Lil’ Wayne were married which makes her his ex-wife.

Math Problems
When Stevie J’s baby’s mother sued him for $1.2 million in child support, Stevie got mad at her for going public and said he loved his kids — but didn’t deny that he hadn’t paid child support in quite a long time.

Public Shade
Dating a celebrity means getting access to your own 15 minutes of fame. Joie Chavis used hers to call out her baby daddy Bow Wow for not supporting their child. And instead of getting mad, Bow Wow started supporting his kids.

Blast From the Past
Remember Carmen Bryan? She’s Nas’ baby mama who wrote a book saying her affair with Jay Z was the reason he wrote “Ether.” Now she’s on Twitter taking shots at Beyonce saying “I’ll always be the girl her husband started a war over.” (Nearly 15 years ago).

Public Fueding
When celebrity baby mamas fight, it can go viral. First Floyd Mayweather’s ex-girlfriend Josie Instagrammed this picture to prove she was still sleeping with him while he was with his girlfriend Shantel.
Shantel fired back with pictures of her walk-in closet. But the fight seems pointless since Floyd clearly has an open relationship with them both — even if they don’t want to admit it.

Public Messiness
Royce Reed has made a name for herself off-camera by getting involved in other people’s relationships. When Dwight Howard’s new girlfriend Christine Vest had a baby, she went on Twitter to break the news first.
Then she buddied up to one of Christine Vest’s Twitter friends to warn her that Dwight was a liar. Was she helping out a fellow sister, or sticking her nose where it didn’t belong?

The Instigator
Draya Michelle fired shots from nowhere when she showed up at the Espy Awards with her new boyfriend, football player Orlando Scandrick, and posted this picture on Instagram.

Custody Battles
When child support checks come with multiple zeroes, it can be hard to let them go every month. And sometimes ballers like Chris Bosh go for custody of the kids instead of paying their baby mothers. Is this good parenting or nickel and diming?

The Secret
What do you think about Jamie Foxx’s dating policy? He says he doesn’t believe in marriage and only had children with women who agree to keep their identity a secret. Is this a good parenting move, or a strange way to date?
