DEAR MASHONDA,…

DEAR MASHONDA,…

So my gal pal, Georgette, from LuxLadies, hit me up asking for my response on Mashonda’s twitter letter to Alicia Keys and boy did I have some words to the soon-to-be ex-wife. LuxLadies.com asked 12 intelligent females to shed light on the Open Letter. What do they think of Mashonda? Are they turning their back on Alicia Keys? Read below for a few comments…

“It’s a well written letter, but who is Mashonda trying to reach here. Something tells me the fans and not Alicia Keys. I find it extremely hard to believe Mashonda hasn’t been able to reach Alicia Keys in the last two years. We (public) have no idea what went on behind close doors inside the marriage of Swizz and Mashonda. What is Mashonda trying to say with this letter… that “she’s hurt,” that “it’s Alicia’s fault,” that “it’s Swizz’s fault.” I just don’t understand the reason for the letter and not to mention two years later. Why now? This is only one side of the story. Yes, it’s unfortunate their marriage is over… but we don’t know the full story. Who are we to label Alicia Keys a “homewrecker,” Swizz Beats as “grimey,” Mashonda as “the victim.” We’ve never heard of any mess like this going on in either Alicia or Swizz’s past, so how are we to pass judgement on the situation when we don’t know the facts.

This all seems a little publicity stunt on Mashonda’s part to try to turn Alicia Keys’ fans against her, as well as Swizz Beatz’s and gain more fans on her side. At this point, I want to hear from Swizz Beatz, I want to hear from Alicia Keys. And call me a hater, but I doubt Mashonda even penned this letter herself, sounds like a good editing job by her PR rep. If she really wanted to discuss the issue, rather than putting her dirty laundry out there for all to read, why not handle it in private (a la Jay-Z and Beyonce). I’m not taking sides here, but the story just doesn’t add up, we need more information. In a court of law, “you’re innocent until proven guilty” but in this case both Alicia and Swizz are “guilty until proven innocent.” Let’s stop pointing fingers and learn the facts. That’s all I’m saying…”

Be sure to read the other ladies’ comments HERE, there’s some food for thought HERE!
