Russell Simmons Extorted for His Blackberry
A woman is claiming to have found Russell Simmons' Blackberry at Fashion Week, and threatens to release private messages from the device, unless she is given a fully loaded RushCard.
Why would someone be so mean-spirited and try to embarrass hip-hop's most lovely family?

I guess its true what they say, "money is the roots of all evil". Everyone is trying to get something for nothing. How would this woman feel if the shoe was on the other foot. Althought she seems like a low life with nothing, but her low life business is her own, and she wouldn't want anyone into her private low life.=(

Whatever was on Russel Simmons blackberry is his OWN Personal business...that woman is just trying to get something out of finding his phone..shes really slow because im sure that if she would have just returned it to him...she just might have gotten a reward from Russel..trying to blackmail someone isnt the right thing to do it...*sigh*
people these days..

i think its sad that people are always looking for the quick buck.give the man his damn blackberry back instead of trying to pry into his life and get money for it . i bet if we went and pried into your life you wouldnt like it either. truth be told the person shouldnt even had looked through it. its none of your business. nosy people.

Who cares. Russell Simmons is so wealthy, I am sure that what ever was said on the blackberry isn't going to make THAT much of a difference!! Some of these entertainers, live for "the drama"", just to keep us interested and keeping them #1 on our agenda....this is how they stay famous. Think about it...they need ""bad publicity" to stay interesting.

Werd on the street tells this tale a little differently.
So, I heard that R.Simmons lost his blackberry. Some woman found it and demanded a reward for its return. Appearantly there were some hot, steamy messages being sent and received from a man to Mr. Def Jam. He paid the chick a hefty reward for his blackberry to keep his secret controlled. Russell gay?

He can always buy another n make that person sorry for getting money hungry! what is wrong with the world these days!! a dumb message will not hurt him!! ignorant ass ppl!! that person will be better off returning the phone and hope he will hook them up then!! but doubt that now since they went ahead and acted a ass!!

America's most lovely family? Have you ever met Russell Simmons? He is the biggest jerk, ungrateful and rude and demanding. I also kind of felt sorry for him because he seemed very lonely, always on the phone, has to keep busy so that he doesn't have to sit still and think about the fact that other than the money and fame, what a rotten life he actually has. He's always doing this yoga and stuff and he needs to go deep inside himself and think about what an asshole he can be and how he needs to get off his ego trip and be more kind to people (from someone who's interacted with him quite a few times over the past year)
