Monica Is Drama

I saw Monica behind the cameras for the first time since her reality show. She didn't seem very happy to me. The bubbly personality and quick wit were missing. She has recently gotten married, but she also suffered a nasty breakup. I believe Monica is another tortured soul. Though her songbird voice has always kept her a household name. She hasn't enjoyed the commercial success of many of her contemporaries of lesser talent. I see some of the same shortcomings in her as I did in Whitney. She comes across as one who justifies her stupid decisions with her right to do as she pleases. Hopefully her whirlwind romance and marriage to Shannon Brown will last. How can you wear a white dress down the isle, when you have two little children one of them still a toddler, and the groom isn't even their father?

What do  Aretha, Whitney, Brandy and Monica all have in common? They don't live the life they sing about in their songs. Even though they sing like voices from heaven. Their personal lives are  shot to hell. Her taste in men has always been poor, dating back to her first publicized love interest "C Murder". After him she dated a known drug dealer that killed himself in her presence. What's the odds of that? Why would a successful millionaire entertainer be involved with a guy like that anyway? It's a known fact. that Monica likes the bad boys.

Which brings us to her children's father. You hardly ever seen Rocko during the reality show "I'm still standing". Even though he and Monica were practically married and building a house. Now I know why. He didn't want to be seen by his female fans. He has built a small empire underground. Monica made him legit. This guy never had any intentions of settling down. It was mostly Ms. Arnold being the diva that she is, and thinking she was exempt. She should have known he was promiscuous.  Look at his videos and you can see for yourself. Monica could have too, if she had paid attention. This might be a sign. Not one woman in his videos look anything like her. This man likes big boned Mamacitas with long hair. Totally the opposite of her. She is a slim, tall sister with a cute face and short hair. With the girls at his disposal. Do you think he leaves that appetite on the set? I don't think so.

I don't know what finally made Monica open her eyes.. Was this a story for "Love and Hip Hop Atlanta"? With Monica and Rocko both in the business. There is no way their paths hadn't crossed some of these people on the show. She was perfectly content having his babies without him marrying her. Then all of a sudden she leaves him because she thinks he's cheating on her. That doesn't add up to me. After hanging out in Atlanta for the last ten years playing house. In a matter of months she was married and had moved to California . I hope this isn't yet another move she'll regret later. Monica can move away from the drama, but she can't get away from herself. Monica is drama. It follows her wherever she goes.
