Baby mommas have become and epidemic. Women seem to be settling for bearing a man’s children rather than bearing a ring on their finger.

Ne-Yo’s latest strip club stunt with his baby momma in tow lead me to question the level of respect men have for the mothers of their children and why they never seem to commit. Here’s three signs you may always be a baby’s momma and never a wife.

1. Stripped

Many men love the allure of naked women booty clapping for dollar bills with no strings attached. Strip clubs are an escape for most men–a fantasy if you will. Strip clubs should not be date night options. If your baby’s father respects you as the mother of his children, he’d never bring you to as strip club to watch him waste his hard-earned money, which could be going to towards the kids.

2. In Your Face

If the father of your children gallivants around town with his so called protege that he has no qualms with expressing his affections towards her, then chances are you’re pretty much set in baby momma concrete.

3. (More Than) One Woman Man

Lil’ Wayne’s redefined the term “baby momma.” He seems to be collecting them like baseball cards. When you look around and you’re among a group of women who share one baby’s father, you just might find yourself living out a stereotype.

What are other tell-tale signs of women staying stagnant in baby momma land?

The NY Daily News reports that Diddy told the “Bad Teacher” actress, “Let’s go.” Diaz allegedly got up and followed Diddy out a back exit where celebrities could call their cars, away from the prying eyes of the paparazzi.

But before the couple could make their exit, Diaz took photos with three male partygoers. An impatient Diddy finally grabbed her hand and said “Let’s go” again and pulled her to a waiting car.

“I’ve never seen him so controlling,” the source to the New York Daily News. “Diaz “seemed to like the manly power thing.”

Diddy & Cameron were spotted kissing at the CAA Foundation & Grey Goose’s pre-Golden Globes party at Soho House in West Hollywood last Friday.

I didn’t think Cam was the kinda girl who liked to be manhandled!

The ladies include models Eva Marcille, Jessica White, Chrissy Teigen (girlfriend of John Legend), Lisa Seiffert, Jerica Lamens, Jing Ma, and actress Dania Ramirez (“Entourage”).

The men include actors Jesse Williams (“Grey’s Anatomy”), Michael K. Williams (“The Wire” & “Boardwalk Empire”), Chad Michael Murray (“One Tree Hill”), Aaron Paul (“Breaking Bad”), Frank Vincent (“The Sopranos”) and singer Chris Jones.

The promo clip features the famous song “Luck Be A Lady” of which Diddy said: “Frank Sinatra made some of the most iconic records of our time; it is truly an honor to use his music again for this campaign. The Rat Pack defined the art of celebrating in style. I cannot imagine a Spirit more suitable for commemorating life with family and friends than Ciroc; a brand that has become synonymous with celebratory occasion.”

See the commercial below:

And some behind-the-scenes footage:

What Was Diddy Doing Before He Got Out His Car?

According to the NY Post, the blond actress, who split with Yankee slugger Alex Rodriguez in September, started the night off with dinner at Marble Lane in the lobby with friends. Afterward, the group migrated upstairs to PH-D, where Diddy came to meet Diaz at her table at about 1:15 a.m. After the music mogul ordered multiple bottles of Ciroc, Grey Goose and Patrón, onlookers said Diaz and Diddy were attached to each other all night.

“They were kissing and making out,” and continued being “very affectionate” while they danced, our sources said.

Diaz and Diddy left the club together with the group just after 3 a.m. This isn’t the first time Diaz has been seen fiddling with Diddy. A Page Six spy saw the pair canoodling over lunch at Scarpetta in Beverly Hills last month following an earlier dinner at Meatpacking District hot spot Catch. But Diaz’s rep insisted at the time they were discussing a movie project. Her rep still maintains, “They are friends and are not dating.” Diddy’s rep echoed that the two are “just friends.”

Friends with benefits??

Well I just got my hands on a juicy piece of information that may explain why Cassie stays with Diddy besides the obvious, I-have-no-talent-what-else-am-I-gonna-do-with-my-life:

There is a sex tape of Cassie and Diddy doing all type of weird masochistic stuff. And Diddy has been holding it against Cassie, and if she ever decides to leave him or find another man, he’ll release. He don’t care. But Cassie does because they said he did a lot of derogatory stuff to her in that video, and shes too “pretty” to be seen in that light. And if Diddy can’t have her, he’ll make sure no one wants her, and she will definitely not have a “career”. 3/4 weeks ago, When Cassie and Diddy and other people were at a party in LA, Diddy got drunk and Cassie said something that pissed him off, Then Diddy started hurling all kinds of degrading names at her, Cassie ran off crying. When people around Diddy asked what he was talking about, he let it all come out. So when and IF Cassie ever gets brave enough to leave him and stop being ONE of his many bottom bitches, expect that tape to “leak”.

After all, this was Jennifer’s third marriage. Granted, their union lasted longer than both of her previous marriages (and her one failed engagement) put together! But, unfortunately, after 7 years and the birth of twins, Jennifer and Marc called it quits.

So, out of all her exes, who would you rather she stayed with? SEE ‘EM ALL IN THE GALLERY BELOW!

Jennifer Lopez & Marc Anthony’s Upcoming Reality Show Is Still On!

Is This Why J.Lo & Marc Anthony Called It Quits?

Ojani Noa, Husband: The couple met while Noa worked as a waiter at a Miami. They married in February 1997, just one month before her breakout role in “Selena” hit screens. They divorced just 10 months later in January 1998.

Sean “Puffy” Combs, Boyfriend: Not too long after her divorce, the two moguls-in-the-making became a couple in 1998. Seemingly a musical match made in heaven, they shared a 2-year relationship until 2000, that ultimately came under stress in 1999 when the two were involved in a New York nightclub melee.

Cris Judd, Husband: The singer married her back-up dancer in September 2001 after meeting him on the set of her “Love Don’t Cost A Thing” video. However, in April 2002, Lopez received flowers from actor Ben Affleck while with her husband at the grand opening of her restaurant. Not surprisingly, just two months later, in June 2002, they announced their separation. And were officially divorced in January 2003.

Ben Affleck, Fiance: The singer and actor began dating in 2002 before Jennifer’s divorce was even made final. They got engaged just several months later in November 2002. Their wedding was planned for September 2003, but was called off just hours before the event. However, the couple still remained together until officially calling it quits in January 2004.

Marc Anthony, Husband: The two had dated briefly in the late 1990s, but parted ways until reuniting in 2003 when Marc separated from his then-wife. Jen and Marc married in June 2004, just four days after his divorce was final. Four years later, in February 2008, the couple had twins. Unfortunately, they announced their divorce in July 2011.

Whew! Got all that?

“I created Empress for the woman who is powerful beyond all others,” Diddy said of the crisp, fruity and florally-noted perfume.

This does not mark his first foray into female scents, however. His “Unforgivable” scent was created in versions for both men and women.

Check out a few excerpts from the interview below:

How does it feel to have not one, but two TV shows (E!’s “Dance Scene” and BET’s “Born To Dance) of your own?
It feels amazing! It feels victorious. I can now tell you: you can make it. I can look at people who were laughed at, people who were told they couldn’t make it, people that are being held down by other people who are manipulating their gift to benefit themselves and say, “Yes, you can stand in line to help someone, but once that season is over, that person needs to give back to you.”

And if you are designed to help someone then that is amazing, but if you are designed to birth something that God has for you I understand. It feels like “I am free” and it feels like “My gift can operate the way God designed it to.” It’s only gonna get better and we are not giving up anytime soon.”

You’re pretty feisty and you have that fire in you. What is it that makes Laurieann say, “I am not going to take anyone’s BS”?
[People's] BS is a projection. They want to crap all over you so you won’t do what you are called to do. I’m not letting that happen to me, my crew, or anybody. I am not letting them do it!

What did you learn from Diddy after working so close with him for many years?
My brother Diddy taught me about the business; he taught me without talking.  He helped prepare me for the position that I am currently in.  I often reflect on how I saw him operate. It wasn’t in a mean way or in an aggressive way, but in a way that he came from nothing. No one was going to take advantage of him. What I learned is: Don’t sacrifice your gift for anybody. Be willing to walk away or it jeopardizes your truth or creative instinct.  Be willing to walk away because then you will get your respect; you will develop your own sense of greatness. But don’t ride the fence and don’t risk your instinct to have a job or belong, because then you push yourself further away from your goal.

I must say that Laurieann seems to have really come full circle since her days on “In Living Color.” It’s always inspiring to see our black women doing major things in their careers. Hopefully she continues to live out her dreams and continue to inspire.

First, after firing Debbie Antney as her manager, and coming up short when trying to work with Lady Gaga’s manager Troy Carter, Nicki Minaj and Diddy joined forces. Read about that here: Diddy Is Nicki Minaj’s New Manager! No, Seriously.

Then, a fake press release hit the internet claiming Nicki had dumped Diddy and replaced him with Benny Medina: Nicki Minaj Drops Diddy As Manager: “I Didn’t Get The Guidance I Was Supposed To”

But, later, Nicki used Twitter to prove that the press release was false: Nicki Minaj Did NOT Fire Diddy As Her Manager [UPDATE]

However, now it seems, history is repeating itself – for real this time. XXL has confirmed that Nicki has parted ways with Diddy and is now being managed by the men of Hip-Hop Since 1978, Gee Roberson and Kyambo Joshua. They also have Lil Wayne, Drake and Young Jeezy on their roster.

Although the reason for her departure isn’t clear, another source tells XXL that Minaj was under the impression that Diddy would be more hands-on with her career, but was disappointed when she realized it wasn’t the case.

Diddy and Cassie
Rumors about Sean “Diddy” Combs being romantically linked to singer Cassie Ventura circulated for years. Neither Cassie nor Diddy have confirmed or denied directly, but the two have been photographed extensively together and hints on Twitter leave most of us convinced the two are dating. Tabloids began reporting the couple’s engagement in 2008, but Combs’ reps quickly squashed the story, saying it was a complete fabrication. I guess we’ll just have to stay tuned!

Nelly and Ashanti
Nelly and Ashanti took great pains to remain hush-hush and avoid confirming their relationship over the few years they were continually spotted together. The two were constantly photographed out and about together, kissing, holding hands and cuddling, but both parties continued to claim they were “just friends”. They both remained committed first and foremost to their careers while still making time to enjoy each other’s company. Nelly’s made it clear he only wants to get married once: Will Ashanti be the one?

Usher and Tameka Foster
Usher and on-again, off-again love Tameka Foster’s relationship was riddled with drama. The couple was engaged in 2007. Foster brought three children into the marriage from two different men and was the subject of scorn by many gossip outlets and fans. After canceling their first wedding planned for July 2007, the couple was ultimately married in August 2007. Tameka suffered a cardiac arrest before going under the knife in Sao Paolo for cosmetic surgery. The couple had two children together, but filed for divorce in June 2009 after being estranged for nearly a year. For those of you counting: If that timing is true, the couple spent almost half of their 2 year marriage apart.

Christina Milian and The-Dream
Christina Milian and The-Dream wed in Vegas in September 2009. Christina gave birth to their daughter, Violet, in March 2010 as rumors of their failing relationship began to circulate. According to statements by the couple, they had already decided to call it quits as of late 2009, but did not share those plans publicly in an effort to protect their daughter. Photos of The-Dream canoodling in the Caribbean with his assistant, Melissa Santiago, surfaced and the fact that he wasn’t wearing his wedding band at the time confirmed the splitsville rumors were true.

Is Christina Milian Back With Her Ex-Husband The Dream?

Nas and Kelis
Musical power-couple Nas and Kelis met at the MTV Video Music awards in 2002 and quickly made things official by marrying in Atlanta in July of 2005. The couple was expecting their first child in 2009, but a seven-months-pregnant Kelis filed for divorce. The couple was surrounded by scandal at the end of their relationship when a sex tape portraying Kelis with another man was sent in to the Wendy Williams Show. Adding fuel to the tabloid fire, Kelis gave birth to a baby boy on July 21, 2009 while her estranged hubby was out partying in the Queensbridge Projects. Two wrongs don’t make a right, but they do make it dunzo.

Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon
This May/November romance had many skeptics claiming it couldn’t last, but one $2.5 million diamond engagement ring and twin boys later, Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are still going strong. With no formal engagement announcement or confirmation, Cannon and Carey married in the Bahamas in April 2008. The couple renewed their vows for their two-year anniversary — marking the occasion with an even bigger engagement ring replacement — and are expecting twins in May 2011.

Kanye West and Alexis Phifer
Kanye West had a rough go of it in 2007 and 2008. In addition to dealing with his mother’s death, West broke off his engagement with long-time girlfriend Alexis Phifer. West and Phifer had been dating on and off since 2002 and got engaged shortly after Donda West’s sudden death. Kanye became consumed by plans for this Glow in the Dark tour, however, and the relationship suffered for it and the couple split in April of 2008. While we didn’t get to see a what a Yeezy wedding would look like, we did get 808’s and Heartbreaks.

Rihanna and Chris Brown
The domestic abuse scandal between Rihanna and Chris Brown began on Grammy night 2009 and the exes still manage to make headlines. R&B royalty in their own right, the couple stepped out together in 2007 but remained coy about the status of their relationship. Sources told gossip mags the couple had hit a “bumpy patch” in February 2009 but no one could have anticipated how far it would go. Brown pleaded guilty to felony assault charges and cannot come within 50 yards of RiRi.

Cute look for Cassie by the way!

“You’re gonna see Aundrea come on the show. You’re gonna see us reunite for the first time since me being fired. You’re gonna see us back in the studio again recording and there’s gonna be some drama that goes along with that. I’m meeting Shannon, we’re having a barbecue at my house, so we’re reuniting again for the first time. D. Woods and I have always been tight. And nobody talks to Dawn and we’ve all reached out.”

On having a relationship with Diddy:
“No, not at all. I always ask people when they say that, ‘Where do you get from? Why are you thinking that?’ and they always say, ‘Well, the way you talked to him on the show, you really acted like you obviously had been in bed with him the night before, like you had some privilege or some right to be talking to Diddy like that.’ And I hear that a lot from females and it’s interesting to me because, as a woman, you should really applaud women that aren’t afraid of speaking their mind and that don’t cower in the likes of money and power.”

And as PopEater reports, now the hip-hop community is starting to take notice and wants a piece of the action. Diddy was seen at Sheen’s house over the weekend, and while no details have been reported about what the meeting (read: party) was all about, if the photograph Sheen twit-picked of himself and Snoop Dogg (along with former Korn member Robert Patterson) at a recording session, is anything to go by, perhaps a Diddy/Sheen collab is in the works too.

Of the recording session with Snoop and Patterson, Sheen tweeted; “Warlock meets his makers-music makers that is @SnoopDogg @robpatterson666 get ready to rock the Sheenius within!”

I have no idea what this music is going to sound like, but you can practically guarantee that, judging by Sheen’s track record, even if it is a hot mess, the track will be a hit. Although, I’m not sure that’s a good thing…

He also went on to say: “It’s really like if I sold all my companies, and I take pride in building something as a black man that’s worth that much. To everyone calling me for a loan today, I do not have that money today!”

Diddy hopes that topping the Forbes’ List will help inspire others, and that people are motivated by the success of him and Jay-Z along with the rest of the Forbes 2011 list. Check out the video of Diddy and Dirty Money at MTV News below.

Take a look:

Diddy has a net worth of approximately $475 million. His empire includes his Sean John clothing line, the Bad Boy Worldwide record label and the vodka brand Ciroc, a joint venture with Diageo.
