You might have seen this before, or you might not, but a few years back, Diggy Simmons actually hit the studio to rap like his bro, Jojo. Check out the video ‘coz all the family’s there. Justine even raps along, and you can see bits of Angela there. Probably amazed at Diggy’s swagger. LOL!
Cuteness!
Style runs in the veins of the Simmons kids. Can’t blame them, because their dad, Rev. Run is one of the creators of today’s urban style through his Run DMC hip hop pioneer’s swagger. In the Simmons family, Vanessa and Angela Simmons have stepped into their dad and Uncle Russell’s footsteps with their breakaway footwear and apparel hit Pastry Shoes.
But we talk about Nessa and Ang so much, that we sometimes miss a little flicker of fashion passion from the boys’ side. Check their cute bro, Diggy Simmons, who’s all about what’s cool and what’s cooler.
Recently, Diggy showed off his new ring in his blog. Does the design look familiar?
Diggy got the ring from accessory designer, Melody Ehsani. The clan’s siblings are huge fans of Melody, especially Angela Simmons, who got her initials done by Melody Ehsani last year.
But now you don’t have to be a celeb to get a piece of Melody. Melody Ehsani’s collection is now available online. You can even pull a Rihanna with the “Bad” ring if you want.
It’s $50. Seriously, you should totally get this.
But first thing’s first: What do you think about Diggy Simmons’ ring? Hot or Not?
So the whole Simmons clan were at Orlando last weekend, filming for their reality show: Run’s House. The perk: they got to try a ride on Manta, the new roller coaster at SeaWorld Orlando. Rev. Run didn’t go on the scary ride, but Angela, Russy and Diggy went on it.
Is that Jojo Simmons? No. Look closer. Don’t know who he is? That dude on the far end, sitting next to Diggy, is actually Skillz. You know, the Dallas-based music producer who is also known as Angela’s boo? Yep, that is him, Pastryheads. Looks like Rev. Run has been having close monitoring sessions on both his girls’ boyfriends. Last week it was Mike Wayans, Vanessa’s boyfriend, and this week Skillz? Whoa, things must be getting serious!
Can’t wait to see it all on air.
What do you think of Rev’s quality time with Vanessa and Angela Simmons’ boyfriends, Pastryheads? Should they elaborate more on this on Vanessa and Angela’s reality show: Daddy’s Girls? Spill!
Pastry co-creator and Daddy’s Girls star, Angela Simmons, was spotted last Saturday, July 18th 2009, at the Art For Life East Hampton 10th Anniversary benefit event. She sported a new hairdo, and a truly elegant look.
Angela attended the event with her bro, Jojo Simmons, her dad Rev. Run and Vanessa… Williams, that is. Vanessa Simmons was not there at the event, she’s probably in LA.
That is one sexy and elegant backless dress, Angela. Well done on the taste department as usual. Question: do you think she cut her hair, merely style it to a faux bob, or was she wearing a wig? Because that is one cute hairdo!
Angela kicked it in with Adriene Bailon. Who do you think ran it? And what are those heels Angela rocked? Here’s a closer look borrowed from Diggy Simmons’ blog.
Although, as Diggy wrote on his blog, that the party is black and white only, Angela rocked cute blue toenails underneath that beautiful glittery peep toe heels. Are those Pastry heels?
The Simmons siblings looked cool hanging out together, even without Vanessa.
Angela and Diggy Simmons was busy up the stage as well. What were they doing in the event anyway?
Angela’s uncle, Russell Simmons along with his brothers Danny and Joseph “Rev. Run” Simmons, founded the Rush Philanthropic Arts Foundation in 1995, a 501 (C) 3 organization which is dedicated to providing disadvantaged urban youth with significant arts exposure, access and education as well as providing exhibition opportunities to up-and-coming artists and artists of color. Diggy Simmons simply put it in his blog:
“…my heart sank it was no joke I saw people in tears it feels great to help the world especially through something I love which is music giving kids instruments and classes that can’t afford and doing the same for and giving children a paint brush and art classes that can’t as well.”
Rush Philanthropic has served over 700,000 urban youth with millions of dollars fund directed from donors, leading corporations to undeserved youth and established two exhibit and education facilities: Rush Arts Gallery and Resource Center and Corridor Gallery.
Again, a well-accomplished family indeed!
Daddy Girls stars / Pastry Shoes creators, Angela and Vanessa Simmons have always been private about their choice of boyfriends and love lifestyle, but Vanessa especially has taken great pains to be so very secretive about her love life. Now people are talking about her dating Michael Wayans, the son of actor Damon Wayans. We did some fact-checking and actually Vanessa Simmons HAS come out about her dating Mike over the years.
You’ve probably already seen this picture. It’s Vanessa Simmons when she attended the premiere of the movie “Dance Flick”. But here’s what she Tweeted before attending the red carpet event:
Looks like Vanessa and Mike have decided to take it all one step further– go (almost) public by staging a publicity event where dad Rev. Run takes Mike go kart racing! Note the matching Adidas outfits.
The race between Rev. Run and Mike Wayans will be aired on the upcoming season of Daddy’s Girls. We can’t wait!
So who is this Michael Wayans, anyway? Well, he’s the son of actor and comedian Damon Wayans, brother of actors Damon Wayans, Jr. and Cara Mia Wayans. The Wayans clan, much like the Simmonses, is huge and filled with public figures. Michael is also the nephew of Keenen Ivory Wayans, Dwayne Wayans, Kim Wayans, Shawn Wayans, Nadia Wayans, Elvira Wayans, and Marlon Wayans. Compared to his other sibling and his other relatives, Mike Wayans is more camera-shy. He has appeared in some of his dad’s TV series, “My Wife and Kids” and the “Dance Flick” movie, but people don’t know that he appeared with his brother and dad in a renewed video of Luther Vandross’ “Dance With My Father” song. The song is a really touching one and the scene is… well, let’s just say, it’s really moving. Check out the Wayans boys at 2:30 to 3:00 in the video below.
That is one adorable family.
Any thoughts about Vanessa’s boyfriend, Pastryheads?
The last episode of Run’s House was just okay instead of excellent, telling viewers how Rev. Run made a deal with JoJo that if he can cook a ‘healthy’ fried chicken, he can get the keys of the Phantom and drive it to the city. First of all, there’s no such thing as a ‘healthy’ fried chicken, and second of all… turned out that JoJo didn’t get to drive the Phantom to the city. Another story arc was Justine, Diggy and Russy begging Rev. Run for a puppy to be their dog Pal’s friend, but no matter how hard the three tried to train Pal -as this was a requirement from Rev. Run, they still didn’t get a dog. True it’s good not to give in all the time to everybody, but well, the episode wasn’t all cheerful.
However, there are some notable moments from the show:
Russy’s attempt to taste a dog treat. Eeeeww! LOL!
Don’t you just love Angela’s expression when she tries out JoJo’s chicken?
And didn’t you just laugh out loud when Vanessa hugged JoJo and he made this face? Siblings! LOL. Look at that headpiece on Angela’s head. Way cute.
Looks like Angela’s looking fly. But the Daddy’s Girls star doesn’t look cold thanks to that off-shoulder top. The rest of the family looked like they’re living on ice. But they face the chills with style.
Even when she’s chillin’ at home, Vanessa Simmons always managed to look stylish. Here she paired an oversized Adidas hoodie with a set of leggings and thigh-high socks.
Hang on, is that Russy? When did he grow up? He looks great in that bomber jacket!
Not to be outdone by his little brother, Diggy Simmons paired a striped hoodie with this black bomber vest. Nice look for an aspiring fashionista, Dig.
Although the chicken-frying gig didn’t work for him, JoJo Simmons scored big on the fly factor with this striped hoodie.
Justine looked HOT in this coat. Tell you what, Pastryheads, coats can make you look great as long as you know how to wear them. Maybe Justine’s attitude helped her to look great although as you might have seen, it must be cold that day they trained Pal!
Who do you think wore tha best warm-up gear, Pastryhead?
