Last year, the aforementioned Baby Daddy Egg welcomed twins, celebrating their arrival by revealing to his model baby Momma, Kim Porter there was other baby onboard after she hatched his mirrored offspring. Here's what she told People magazine about his latest failed relationship:
“I wasn’t even coming from the place of who, what, why,” Porter tells the magazine. “I laid low and did what women do: I did my background work, collected information [about the other woman]. But I wasn’t even on it like that because I was pregnant, and what was bubbling inside me was a blessing from God. I couldn’t let my energy be on that. I didn’t have time for any drama, trauma and bull—-.”
As Porter was to learn, the other baby was born five months before Porter and Combs’s twins arrived. The mother was Sarah Chapman, 33, who lives in Atlanta, worked in fashion and knew Combs for several years, her attorney tells Essence.
Of Combs’s behavior, says Porter, “It’s not an original script. He’s not the first man who’s cheated. He’s not the first man who’s had a baby outside of his relationship. He’s not the originator of this. But at this point in my life – I have girls now – it’s a different program.”

Ultimately, Combs did approach Porter with the news, but it was after their twins were born, she says.
“He told me that he may have gotten himself into a situation and he may have fathered another child outside the relationship and I said, ‘Really? Well, I already knew. I’m glad you decided to be a man,’ ” recalls Porter. “I was like, ‘Dude, this is so wack I can’t even respect you right now.’ And for me, once the respect is gone, I’m not even listening to you.”
In a surprisingly, albeit uncharacteristic, tender move toward his X Hen from the Block, Bad Boy Egg X offered J. Lo his twins' wardrobe. Awwww, goes to show what we already knew to be true: that mofo still hearts her. Remember this?

Um, look at HER face. I know THAT feeling and well. Ugh.
As a 33-year old child of a twin, this 'Hollywood' trend as one online magazine called it, really hits home. As I see it these women: Oscar winners, Marcia Gay Harden, Julia Roberts, Angelina Jolie (reportedly expecting twins) and their contemporaries, Garcelle Beauvais-Nilon and Marcia Cross have at least one thing in common with me. They were all over 30 when they dropped two eggs.
As my temporarily, singleton friend Amy said in a comment about eggs gone cracked:
"I'm more worried about the eggs I'm losing monthly, ya know!"
It's no secret the older we get, the more prone we are to drop a pair o eggs at that certain time, leaving both, or ARGH! more, ripe for the fertilizing. As careers, failed relationships and trips abroad prolong any hope of reproduction at earlier ages, I think many late Gen-Xers, and possibly beyond, will eventually see rattles, bibs and Diaper Genies in double vision. Some say the average baby goes through at least 12 diapers a day! Oh, poo!
Again, as child of a twin coupled with the fact my Grandmother bore, not one but two sets of twins, I am prepared for that possibility, which exasperates my own fear of procreation. I just don't know if I could handle two at a time. Sheesh. Five minutes around my nieces and nephew, who are staggered in age and I'm crying, "Where's yo mama!"
But seriously, if twentysomething young Jessica Alba can sanely handle the idea of baby in duo, than most certainly with my brains and courage, I shouldn't be so skittish. Although she possesses the ability to disappear and reappear in the most crappiest of flicks, my own honeyed moves prove I am quite capable of being SuperHot SoccerMOM. Ick that doesn't even sound right. Alas, as I am not knocked up, I need not worry. Whew!
I would be better not to be misguided by pop culture's iconic deeds, as it seems many are now getting preggers to rake in moolah newborn baby pics generate.

J. Lo's latest act will reportedly earn her a cool $4-$6 million from People Magazine. This tops what the magazine paid to snap away at Brangelina's spawn, Shiloh. Didn't offer to pay anything fo photos of their little black baby, did they? Anywho, as those two brew their own Doublemint Twins, there's undoubtedly more deals in the works. Now that's a sure-fire way to ensure you've got enough money for child support!
Well isn't P "SPECIAL." One who knows how to drop a load and use women like his own personal sperm drop.
Takes a real man to be a father, a real man to be trustworthy to his woman and then his child. Any moron can drop a load but doesn't and will never make them a man. Asshole with teeth maybe but never a man.
I also am a twin. Boy & girl, double trouble, he is perfect and she of course isn't. Hummm! Might I add that in God's eyes she is.
The twins? They say it's usually every other generations when you come from a family of twins.
Look on the positive side you get two for the price of one. One birth instead of two, one time of no sleep for six weeks and you will already have a nice size family without having to go through it all over again. The body comes back to life quicker, only 9 months instead of 18 months and only 1 set of maternity clothes and only 1, 200 gallons of ice cream instead of 2,400.
LL you would be a great mom and teacher for the twins. You love, your caring for others proves that. I hope that there is someone special out there that knows this about you and scoops you right up real quick.
You would be a co-creator like God and how special you and your family would be.
You must have one of each and name them Jimmy and Lois.
Love ya,

Ya know Nash, I used to hate on J. Lo for using that poor soul to launch her digitally-mastered singing career. But as the years, press on I applaud her for getting the hell out before he left his bun in her oven.
After reading the Ebony Magazine piece done about Kim and Baby Daddy Egg, I felt like, "Wow, he finally found her. He's happy. That's so sweet." Now, after learning that mofo had another baby FIVE whole months before his two girls were born, I realized at time he said all that BS in article other baby was not only on the way but HERE. Such a friggin' Rotten Egg.
Back to J. Lo, so far removed from the American pop-cult scene, I didn't even know she was knocked up. I thought that bit o news as rumor!! Thought marriage was one of convenience as I was sure husband was closet homosexual and only soothed her need to perpetually tie the knot.
Good points about getting a two-for with twin buns. As I know it skips, my mom is a twin, she didn't have twins, so I can have twins. I still think it's why I'm still single. You have more faith in me that I'd exhibit the patience of Job with my own brood. I would try to solve everything with a cookie.
"Oh, you scraped your knee? Here's a cookie. Oh, the dog (I'd own a dog?) ran away? Here's a cookie. Oh, you got your first period? Here's a cookie and a Midol. That mofo broke your heart? Eat a dozen cookies before kicking his mofo'ing ass."
So, you see I don't think I should encumber some immaculately, innocent spirit with my brand o mothering. However, if there are two of them, at least, they can console each other.

Oh Dear L.L.!
Eggs are nothing to fear in any shape or form. I, too, am a granddaughter of not one, but two sets of twins. Add to that I used some scientific assistance to procreate and that "advanced maternal age" thing and I just knew I was going to have twins. Didn't happen. One was quite enough work though. Some days, it felt like twins.
Do you ever wonder if the pattern in Hollywood is being created by those women of "advanced maternal age" taking meds to increase their chances of conceiving and thus resulting in a double egg drop soup? Me thinks that is the thing.
LOVED what Kim Porter said about Duddy...and having daughters now. It was one thing to accept that behavior when it was just a thang, but when you have daughterly eyes watching your every move and you know they will model their behavior after yours, it's time to chuck the ****, I mean, Duddy. He makes my skin crawl. That's ok..that greed and nature of his will catch up with him. In order to have gotten that other woman pregnant, he wasn't suiting up for the big game....shame. He may learn how to dress the hard way.
Nice entry!

Welcome back, Cuzzo Scene!
Learning how to dress the hard way. That's a right good one. I wouldn't wish that on any soul but we got to lay in what we make. Yes? As far as catching up with him, his daughters all will read everything printed about their births one day and disdain their father as much as I disdain mine. Hopefully, Baby Daddy Egg will pay his child support to all children (Justin is his eldest) and avoid having to chuck up years of nonpayment all at once.
Of course, he could open a bunch o restaurants, a la Justin's, naming each one after his spawn and give it to them as payoff. However, that would mean he would have to think ahead AND about them, which is something his behavior proves is the ONLY thing that mofo doesn't think about.
Thanks for leaving your thoughts. So glad you did.

OMG! Tell me about it. The fact of baring twins. One good way to look at it, 2 could be the final number that you expect to have. Right? I am from a big family myself, and with my mom being a foster/adoptive parent, kids are routine in my life. However, I don't see myself having any. Well at least NOT right now. If so, my life would be at a stand still because I would have worry about another being (or beings), and focus a little less on myself. Frankly, as of now, I am happy with the fact that if anything happens, I could just jump up and go. Not worrying about a babysitter, or who else is influencing my child (or children). So, I love kids, but right now I am cool!

Welcome to the Met, Carrie!
As you are quite young, no need worry about bearing children just yet. As this topic sparked an online, off-blog convo with Scenic about the suspected growing number of women who experience problems with fertility, if you wait until you are in your late 30s or even past 40 until you have children you will be able to pop a pill conceiving at will. This is what Scenic suspects all of these Hollywood types to have done, and barring any evidence to the contrary, I'm afraid I'm inclined to agree with her on THIS point. So take your time and live your life... on the go!
So glad you came by to leave your thoughts. Thanks so much, sweetie.
