: MediaTakeOut.com just caught wind that mogul Russell Simmons has to cough up 40 STACKS a month to his ex-wife Kimora in child support. Here’s how the AP is reporting it:
Los Angeles Superior Court judge Marjorie Steinberg signed off on an agreement Thursday giving Kimora Lee Simmons sole custody of the couple's two daughters, 9-year-old Ming and 6-year-old Aoki. The couple's divorce was finalized in January. Kimora Lee Simmons filed for divorce in March 2008, citing irreconcilable differences.DANG …. Ain’t she got her OWN PAPER????Russell Simmons, the 51-year-old hip-hop mogul, was granted visitation rights and must pay child support until each daughter reaches 19 and a half years of age.
What I wanna know is why does ALL of his visits have to be supervised!! What is that all about? Why does she not trust Russell to be alone with his daughters. Maybe its just be but thats kinda odd IMO!!
Also the part about the girls having to have a $60,000 dollar vehicle to drive at all times is unbelievable! I like Kimora but she is a bit far fetched and petty.
They base child support on how much you make. You have to take into consideration the girls attend a private school and have become accustomed to a certain lifestyle. They are bicoastal kids so they have to have 2 of everything. Did you all forget he sold Phat Fashions Kimmora is working still as the creative director of baby phat, phat farm, kls so she only gets a percentage of the money. Not sure why his visitation is supervised but more than likely the court felt that it was needed. Kimmora more than likely will put that money in trust for them because she got a nice piece of change in her divorce.
40K per MONTH??? He's already supporting her and the children!!! He gave her Baby Phat didn't he? She would be a washed up model without Russell, sure she contributed to building the companies but dayumn, what more does she need? I know that child support is based on the income status of the paying parent but seriously, these kids will never want for anything with or without the 40K per month!
I DON'T GET THIS AND I PROB NEVER WILL BUT ***!!! THE CHILD SUPPORT LAWS IN THIS COUNTRY ARE HORRIBLE. ITS CLEARLY OBVIOUS THESE GIRLS WILL NEVER WANT FOR ANYTHING FOR THE REST OF THEIR ENTIRE LIVES ALREADY WHETHER HE PAYS THAT OR NOT. NOT TO MENTION THEIR MOMMY IS HER OWN SELF MADE MILLIONAIRE!! SO WHY SO MUCH MONEY AND WHY UNTIL THEY ARE ALMOST 20!! AREN'T YOU AN ADULT IN THIS COUNTRY AT 18? I MEAN IF HE GOT IT LIKE THAT THEN MORE POWER TO HIM AND MORE POWER TO HER FOR GETTING IT, BUT I SWEAR ITS NEWS LIKE THIS THAT WILL KEEP ALL THE GOLD DIGGING WOMEN ON THE HUNT FOR A BALLER TO LOCK THEM DOWN. aLL SHE IS GOING TO DO WITH THAT MONEY IS GO SHOPPING ITS A *** SHAME HOW THIS WORLD WORKS!!
I know there's a lot of brothers that don't pay their way, but I still think the system is broken and needs to be fixed. Russell is the reason this washed up model even has anything, he gave Baby Phat and all that. So he had to pay her alimony in the divorce, and now pay 40K a month in child support? That's some ***!
I read this on People dot com and it said that he has visiting right s but it has to be supervised with a nanny at all times and security. The way that sound to me is they dont trust Russell with his own kids but she got Djimon holding that 8yr old girl and spending more time with them than their own father...I never see Russell photoed with those girls...I dont know if he dont like spending time with them or if its Kimora and her boujie-ghetto bratty ways!
Kimora dont need that much money to take care of them girls...but hey she a bratty ***! I wish Dijmon the best wit her controlling ***!
media take out you guys are late. I knew this months ago. TMZ reported this last year. and Russell signed for the child support Kimora didn't ask for any just like she didn't ask for alimony, hello she's not getting any money from him the child support is for the kids and they can't touch that until they are a certain age. you guys on here reading this go to TMZ.com they have the real truth because mediatake out is full of it. and if you still don't belive me go to Russell's on blog on global grind.com he talks about how he wanted to pay that much. child support is based on income Russell is obviously making enough to pay that much for the next 10 years for his kids. he loves them and he wants the best for them.
DIDN'T REALIZE RUSSELL WAS SUCH A WUSSSS!
- HE'S TRYING TO PRETEND IN COURT LIKE HE'S GOT A FAT BANK ACCOUNT LIKE OPRAH OR STEVEN SPIELBERG.
HE MAY NEED A BAIL-OUT / NAW HE'LL PROBABLY JUST MARRY A BLACK WOMAN, WHEN HE'S BROKE OR NEAR BROKE...... & TELL HER SHE GOTTA EAT KETCHUP SANDWICHES, CHITTERLINGS & DRIVE A HOOPDIE!!!
RUSSELL'S THE HO & KIMORA IS THE ***!! ..... SHE USED HIS MONEY TO START HER BUSINESS, THEN SWEEPED HIM OUT THE DOE (door) LIKE TRASH!!!!
MAYBE THAT UPSIDE-DOWN YOGA *^*@, FRIED HIS BRAIN.
PEOPLE!!!!Here it is straight fro HIS mouth on HIS website, [SPAM] so you can stop with the stupidity. In HIS words so STFU and read it for yourself....."I am reading these stories today about how a judge ordered me to pay Kimora $40,000 a month in child support and I want to make something very clear. Nothing was ordered, it was given. My kids have a fabulous life; they are exposed to a broad range of artistic and scholastic educational programs and I'm very happy to contribute to that. As long as I have it, they can have it. If I ever don't have it, I'm coming to live with them!" That goes for the security guards and nannies that have to be there when he visits as well. He's been explained that one months ago.. Black people, stop following this nonsense and investigate for yourself!!
first of all, she's got her own money, second of all those ARE his *** kids Russell is super paid he needs to be breakin bread for his girls and his is willing to do so (GOOD 4 U RUSSY) Third of all...This is old, old, old, news this was brought up before the divorce was finaled. Get it together ppl (this includes MTO)
Thank ya'll for comin out, god bless, peace. if u watched Def Comedey Jam in the 90's u know what I'm talking about, *** I think I just told my age. Oh well ;)
QUIT HATEN' MTO IT'S THE LAW, LOL. GET IT KI KI!! So what if she got her own. She was smart in that marriage to use his name to push her product and HE helped her do it, they still work together so it's all good in there hood! & FELLAS IF U DONT WANNA PAY THEN U TAKE THE KIDS IF NOT STFU! I know is SOME cases the baby moms is really "crazy" and will not take good care of the kids but in MOST cases yall n*ggas wanna live yall lil lives and let the chick raise the kid so u can do u while she's changing dipers! SMDH
she is not money hungry...those are russell d@mn kids he needs to help take care of them. point blank. so what if kimora has her on money. so russell has to pay about 6 million in child support. but he is worth about 300-500 million. so that is not hurting uncle russ to pay 1% or 2% of his net worth.kimora i'm not mad at you.
But truthfully she did have some cakes on her own. She modeled since she was like 16 yrs old and saved her $$ while spending his (always the right choice)
But being that I have to deal with child support cases on the regular..it does go according to the income so $40,000 is a mere percentage of his real income.
Lets truly define what we know about KIMORA LEE SIMMONS.
Round faced Asian Breed with the height of a supermodel, married a rich dude 15 years younger than she is (she was 15, maybe), lucked out on Def Jam money for over 2 decades, probably had an open relationship with her fruity husband, gave him kids to establish her permanence, dropped him when he wanted white woman, got half and the house, grew an empire off her baby FAT face, married an african who can't threaten her long money with his broken English and his typecasted movie roles.
Asking 40k when she already got his *** in a sling for at least the next decade. Doesn't seem much for a survivor like KIMORA. Its funny in ultimate wrestling a "kimora" is a move where you choke out the opponent. Go figure.
Just another example why nice guys finish last and rich brothers should never get married. This is some mess! The African just lays back in the cut enjoying the wealth. For a *** who has her own company and money, 40 grant a month in child support is outageous. There's no justice in this country for hard working black men doing all the right things.
lmaoooooooooo i needa give that fly heffa some props, she aint NEVA gon be broke no mattter how bad her business go. russel has to buy the girls a different car every 3 years worth at least $60,000. and *** havin her own paper, russel aint got no other kids, he got responsibilities, take up for them.
