Reverend Run’s little daughter Angela Simmons is sick and tired of her own people hating on her decision to date outside of her race. Check out what she had to say about folks being upset that she’s dating Dallas rapper Skillz who is half Venezuelan and half Argentinian:

I am a lil surprised at the number of people that seem to disapprove of the relationship with my boyfriend. I find this reality to be kind of hard to accept. There are times when I notice people giving us long hard stares and those stares are usually from my own people! Honestly, I wish everyone could benefit from the beauty that can come from experiences that happen outside of your own comfort zone. Give it a shot and you can learn so much from a person you never thought you’d talk to or have something in common with. Sometimes society makes it hard for us to be comfortable enough in our own skin to embrace others who are different

I’m a little confused, I thought dude was Puerto Rican? I didn’t realize that dating a latino man was considered interracial dating…

Vanessa Simmons is dating a Wayans!!

Take a look at the Simmons sisters below:

    Uhhhh YEAH…dating a latino man is considered “interracial” (smh). HELLO!!! Whatever the case she made some very valid points. I think the stares come from the fact that she is a celebrity #1 and also the fact that black women dating interacially is NOT AS common as black men dating outside of their race #2. It is what it is though! Cute couple…do you!

    why is this a debate…the girl is happy so let it be! i dont care if he is purple as long as women realize that its how you are treated & feel while with someone is what counts! our black men have been out finding what makes them happy its about time us as strong black women realize that our KING could be of any ethnicity!

    As long as they like/love each other, I don’t think there is anything wrong with it. We as black women are starting to date outside of our race more now because our men are dating women of other races so we have to take what’s left. Most of us are mixed with something anyway so what’s the big deal?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SEARCH09/ SEARCH09

    most people wouldnt know that he was a latino just by how he looks.But anyway fellas and sistas need to wake the hell up…only those who do not travel and explore will be left out and not really in tuned with what is going on in the world.SISTAS ARE DATEN OUT OF THEIR RACE THROUGHOUT THE NATION.it is no longer black men doing it more,sistas are out there doing their thing. and no it isnt because brothas are dating out of their race…it is simply bc too many brothas are transforming into sistas and hide’n behind the closet not knowing what the uh they want.

    LETS BE REAL sistazz….

    the other portion is locked up or heading in that direction.and a small amount that’s left chasing everything in skirt.so the little good portion of black men left in the U.S are in denial that they are black if you know what I mean.those are the ones chasing other races like lost dogs.SISTAS NEED TO KNOW THAT THERE ARE GOOD INDEPENDENT SUCCESSFUL LOVING BLACK MEN THAT EXIST,JUST NOT IN THE U.S LOL,travel sistas just for enjoyment and you never know who you’ll bump into. you will be exposed to so many interracial relationships SOOOO wake up people, it is 2009.stop living in a box!

    btw, I thought this girl was dating some black football player…I could be wrong…yet who gives a flying hoop about her.MOVING ONNnn

    We are all God’s children regardless of what you heard. People need to understand that the fallen angel has been busy capturing a lot of souls over the centuries causing wars, segregation amongst race, hatred, greed, etc., ..all the bad things you can imagine. If you can understand this you’ll see why a certain race or nation can build up on hatred and greed over other nations or races of people. So, ask yourself, where’s the love for humanity God intended?

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/jazzwatch/ jazzwatch

    Search 09, so if someone like ME who loves black women doesn’t have a chance with the sistas because of what I mentioned before????? I’m STILL one of God children, and I’m certaily not gay or have a criminal record (the media loves to SMEAR Black people and so do we) or out chasing women; I’m a guy who goes to work, do my art work, and that’s it. Wish I could find a loving lady, and if a sista can’t accept me because I don’t look like Jamie Foxx or have Billions like Oprah, then maybe might date outside the race….I’d been rejected more that I had to and now I want a WOMAN who’s gonna give me real, true lovin’…….

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/SEARCH09/ SEARCH09

    I personally dont agree with black men who get with a lady from another race simply because
    1. he has children or family on the side and running from his responsibilities
    2. as some sort of revenge towards his ex
    3. he’s broke,bad credit, dont have luck in life and need some assistance
    4. he’s lazy,mama’ boy, seeking some suga mommy
    5. he is doing it as some sort of trend to impress the fellas in some strange way
    6. he is in denial,lost and doesnt acknowlege the fact that his ars is black “Taye Diggs”
    7. most importantly,too many successful black women and some black men are not up for the challenge

    Too many brothas are doing it for the wrong reasons and THAT normally bites them in the ars later down the road. Now as for you Jazz.see sweety your not being fair, you have a profile on BP but no photo…now how do we know what YOU look like?and uh Jamie fox isnt handsome to me.as far as looks go>>more like denzel,morris chestnut,Tyres, blaire underwood, boris kodjoe and the list goes on…

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/sonaughty01/ sonaughty01

    I’m married to a Latino man, I agree with everything Angela said the stares we get are mainly from Black people. The thing I hate the most is when black men get so mad because they expect a black woman to wait for them while they go and get women of other races. Well not me I found a man that loves me for me and I don’t give a damn of the stares that we get because at the end of the day when I’m at home with my husband he makes me feel great, loves me and takes good care of me, if for one second I took into consideration what people might say about our relationship I wouldn’t be as happy as I am now so f**k who doesn’t like it. I’m happy and thats what matters and thats what should matter to everybody else as long as you happy forget the rest.

    Now please allow ME to ‘Weigh in’ on this subject. First of all, let me say that I do believe that love can exist between members of ANY races! Second, let me say that what DOES PISS me off is when a Mo-Fo PURPOSELY dates outside of their own race! What I mean by that is when someone ONLY dates outside their own race! THAT is a CLEAR sign of severe Dysfunction and it says that that person has more Issues than Jet Magazine! And that goes for Men as well as Women!! I don’t know if this is the case with Angela What’s-Her-Name, but I’m just sayin’. I have dated both Black and White Women and while they both have their advantages and disadvantages, I will ALWAYS prefer my Chocolate Sistas! Search09 had some good points, but also went a little off the deep end too (there’s a LOT of Black Women/Hood Rats that CHASE AFTER those guys that are in & outta jail like revolving doors). I believe that our people need to give each other a chance also. That’s all I’m sayin’. My Chocolate sistas deserve Candles, Whipped Cream, Strawberries and Satin Sheets like NO OTHER! ;-)

    and STOP fukcing GENERALIZING ladies!!!!!!!!!!! using the fact that other black men date out of their race as a SORRY AS EXCUSE to justify YOU wanting to do it(you’re not fooling anyone!!!!!!. as many of you said in this post, JUST DO YOU and stop whining like a bunch of babies. and EYE REPEAT; STOP USING THE FACT THAT OTHERS DO “IT” TO JUSTIFY THE FACT THAT YOU WANT TO DO THE SAME!!! the truth is that you wated to do it all along so GROW A DAMN SPINE!!!!

    I am soo very tired of this subject. Seriously. Who cares if someone is dating or married to someone not of the same ethnicity. I’ve dated Black, White, and Latino men and can sincerely say it’s all about inner compatibility. There are so many other things going on in the world to be worried about something as diminutive as someone’s color. If the person is a good person who treats you right, who cares?

    Another thing, someone here said that if somoene constantly dates outside of the ethnic circle that they’re dysfunctional. I do not believe that. Being attracted to a certain set of features does not make one dysfunctional. Just like some men and women prefer tall, short, skinny, or thick, some people just prefer the features of some ethnic groups.

    Let’s move on already!!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/Toni_Anthony/ Toni_Anthony

    I Choose NOT to date outside of my race, instead I DO WITHOUT! One can have enough drama, etc., in life to experience what one can get if THEY accept a lot of crap coming out the gate, but life teaches one that. I passed the classes with flying colors (So to Speak) so I’d rather eat the whole lobster instead of just settling for the tail! Self love can make one wonderfully selfish, but it’s nothing wrong with being SELFISH & having the wonders of the world/life right at your fingers.

    but to each his own….just dont make excuses for why you choose to do what you do. if that what you like, then ok good for you. just dont make excuses and put blame on black men…

    Some of you guys are so dumb and ignorant as to why she gets the feedback the way she does. What a person like they like who cares but if most people who stare at her are of the black race maybe they love black people and stuff like that can bring it to a halt. White people look at her in the same way except they show it with a smile. lets be for real it’s not only a few blk people who find it to be wrong etc. Yall in denial.

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/iamtruelove1111/ iamtruelove1111

    Reality Check-

    SonyaM97- What does shape and size have to do with race? Off topic first off and if you perfer the features of someone else from another ethnic group over your’s it’s clearly a self-hating issue/problem. Where you need to move on to is loving yourself first. Don’t look for beauty within other races.

    downsouthmayn- Well said.

    german_cutie_13- if she didn’t care she would have said I don’t care, next question. Why did she explain her situation?

    Fell2chocolate- Aww!

    DAREALRECKLESS- I’m feeling your reply the most. I don’t understand how people can call a women a QUEEN who is not a black women, the real queen. Lol you told her.

    kennyd4- Were you a crack baby? Because your talking jibberish.

    Bball_girl07- What the f#%$ you mean we? Why would you even say we have to talk what’s left? As in we get the straps. Girl just relax on topics like this. Black women don’t take straps and are infact the best and most beautiful women on earth. That’s why white males dating outside their race first back then.

    Yoshi-Doe- You are racist to gays. With a name like that you should accept everyone.

    SEARCH09- Agree with one part about not having many good blk men in the us. They are to into white chicks. I’m glad men in my family all have a blk girlfriend or wife becuase blk is beautiful and fu$$ who don’t like it.

    jazzwatch- You started good but when bad. Why would you put blk women in that stereotype of not wanting a blk man because of what he doesn’t have to offer? That’s sad. You might have been rejected because of your looks or personality not what you got.

    SEARCH09- Totally agree especially with number 5. They do it cause so many famous blk boys do it. Get rich get a white chick. Struggle get a sistah to hold you down.

    2good2bsingle- So your saying women outside of the blk race aren’t golddiggers? I mean there folks do tell them to marry a man with something to offer, lots of money etc. Doubl check your facts. You are so lame and fake. How can you spit that last line? What sistah would want you after you dated a white chick?

    Whoa!

    To angela be happy and stay to yourself all broadcasting pics like that. Much love to the family though.

    So what! Let her date who she wants to. Also, I don’t see any forums against Reggie Bush dating Kim Kardashian or Lamar Odom marrying (supposedly) Khloe Kardashian. They are interracial couples. If we’d go that route 75% of the NFL, NBA, Tiger Woods, muddy-mud skipper looking, crusty-lipped Terrel Owens (sorry to get ignorant but I can’t stand his ass) would be the matter of debate but are not. However, it seems the tables turn when a Black Female chooses to date outside of her race but little is said when a Black Men does. No one seems to get upset when a Black Man has a lead role in a movie and is cast with a Hispanic love interest. No one seems to care when lyrics of a rap song impy that “a long-haired, thick, redbone” is preferable or prettier than a medium to dark skinned, short-haired, natural-haired, Black Woman who is just as pretty. Who cares or says anything then? Who tries to stand up for or defend the Black Woman at that point? Not many. I mean if you care so much about what’s going on with Black Women or what they are doing why is it that no one voices their opinions or cares then? Let Angela love or be with whoever she wants to be with. I don’t know why this article was even posted.

    I don’t care, because I’m currently doing it. The best thing to do is date who you want, and not worry about what people think. Your relationship isn’t their business and people who seem to take it personal are pitiful. Sistas who get worked up over a black man with a white woman: Well. . . .if that black man wasn’t with that white girl, would you want him? If your answer is “No,” “Not really,” or “Probably not,” then don’t worry about it.

    If I hit it off with someone, then I’m not gonna late race be a boundary.

    Wow! It’s so great to see so many open minded people. I myself think it’s okay to date interracially. In the scheme of the whole civil rights struggle it is a fairly recent right to do so in some states. And there are still people who aren’t as open minded and accepting of it, sort of like a homosexual couple being gawked at walking down the street.

    The main problem here- is skin color- if her bf wasn’t light skinned – to be perceived as white- the stares would be minimal- from my own experience I’ve seen the stares from both spanish and black people when out with my bf. The spanish ppl look at me like (WTF is wrong with her) and vice versa- see what they don’t know is that my bf is latino but brown skinned and I’m light skinned- for me I don’t give a dayum- but since I moved from NYC to the south- it’s become a “problem” for ppl- mind mine and handle yours- @ Angela – do your thing mama- date whomever makes you happy and treats you well…a lot of the ignorant comment, stares and misconceptions are from lack of education and ignorance- if folks really studied history- they wouldn’t be so quick to judge others- I’m so tired of this subject it upsets me to no avail because I wish folks would just get over it- I don’t care if you’re purple or green- and to those that may wonder, I’m a latina but I’m from NY and dating a latino or a brother is no different for me. You’d be surprised at what you find behind color- that light skinned or dark skinned brother or sister- can be latino/a too……

    I could give a damn. If you like it, I love it. If he makes you feel like a queen, so be it. Just keep it pushin fam. If you guys connect on a level that works for you then great, but usually it always comes back to commonality… if its not there, it may not last. I wish you the best of luck… One love.

    i just want to say that the African -American man is the only man in this world that has no love or respect for their own woman, every other culture loves their women no matter what, even the Africans love and respect their women… So my African American brothers when u put down ur woman it’s not making u look better it actually looks pretty sad on an international and any level for that matter, so lets break these chains , love ur self Black man, then i’m sure it will come natural to find the beauty in ur own black women. Peace

    And that is so stupid for ppl to judge her b/c she dated Bow Wow:Black and she dated that skater guy:Black and if I’m not mistaken, neither wanted to (wait) for her. So what does that tell you? Not that she should stop dating Black guys, but give me a break. This interracial dating topic is beyond lame. Next!

    Well first let me say Thank You to all the beautiful black women on here who have expressed love for us Latino Men!!! Nothing wrong with some Latin Spice. It will keep you Warm on those cold nights. As for the whole interracial thing again. It dumbfounds me that we are about to enter the 10th year of the 21st Century and this is still an issue. I was married to a black woman and have a daughter who is half black. I have raised her to love all people. Regardless of race, color, religion and any other stupid reason one can come up with not to like someone. WE are all Human Beings. That is all that counts. Get over the stupid stuff and focus on being happy, with whoever it may be.

    First, I must respond to Angela’s comment: She is Black (race #1) and the guy she is dating is Latino (race #2), so yes, that is interracial dating- duh. Black and White is not the only version of interracial dating there is, although it can appear that way since that is mainly what you see. There is nothing at all wrong with Angela dating outside her race, she probably couldn’t find a Black guy that she liked that would act right- they probably all ran to strippers, w***es, and White chicks-who also may be strippers and w***es. Angela has demonstrated an openness to dating both men in and outside of her race, unlike the Black men who date outside their race and feel that’s the only way to go.

    There is nothing wrong with dating outside of your race if this is the person you love and want to be with. What makes me sick, and want to throw up is when black people date outside of they don’t want anything black! I can’t stand black people who are color struck! That is worse than being racist!

  • http://www.blackplanet.com/BlackisBeautiful31/ BlackisBeautiful31

    Just for the record, I love black men, so brothas please don’t think sistas don’t have your back because we do! There are more black women who are attracted to black men than you think!

    LOVE is the most important thing in a relationshoip.(I see H-O-T-T-I-E in different ladies) those who have color issue shouldn’t try to date outside their race anyway….they the onres prepetuating the hate and misunderstandings;they’re the ones I don’t want to be around at all…..

    i realize that 95% of black females if they had the chance would prefer to date out their race..thats just something i know now…we only mess with each other cus we live in the same hood…if all black people lived in surburban areas like in california i do believe that 95% of black females would be with a non black man..you can see it in their eyes!
