Comment: Well Terry McMillian is about one dumb something. Why there was no confidentiality statements filed with her original settlement is beyond me -- probably due to her own greed because she wanted to write about it. Jonathan played her, got his citizenship and is about to get paid...all because Ms. Terri wanted to get layed. Karen Hunter is turning up everywhere making some serious cash in the process. She wrote the Mase book, is the writer who works with Wendy Williams and now Jonathan Plummer. Simon & Schuster is a major -- not some urban division or ghetto press. I can't remember which EUR poster made the comment but it was priceless and I'll paraphrase. They wrote when you go to Jamaica you bring home a plate, a knick knack, a T-shirt -- but you DO NOT bring home a man. This will be the read of the summer 2007!

Comment: and how is biiitch boy able to still leave messages on her answering machine?? didnt she have sense enough to change her number and make it private?? damnnnnn, how stoopit can u be??

Name: robijoa
Comment: @Teigh, I would have to agree that Terry is stupid. A woman of her stature and ingenuity, yet she gets stuck in this stupid situation. She's not an airhead to the point of not knowing this man was gay in the first place. This whole thing is childish and I'm afraid someone is going to wind up hurt.

HECK STEVIE WONDER COULD SEE HE WAS GAY!..pst.STAR JONES,,are you taking notes??

Comment: I thought TM was smarter than this! After battyboi tried to blackmail her his punkazz would have disappeared. While I don't have much sympathy for her - she knew or she should have known or at least listened to women she trusted before cause it was painfully obvious what he was. His book would never be written and the only thing that would be left of him would be his fingerprints.

Name: HoneyMack
Comment: Ok, so this lil baztard was attempting to blackmail her and when it didn't work decided to write a "fictional" account of their life, but then he claims he is writing the book to help men like himself and give his spin on things. Umm yeah so is it fiction or non fiction? He is just as confused as his own "lifestyle". He seems to be giving DL men a bad name, he decided only to write the book after she refused to give him more money, talk about acting like a pus*sy! Terri knows if she would have given in he would have kept doing it. Then not only does his sorry as*s get a job down the street from her house he calls the paper to plug the name of the salon he works at. She had bought him the dog grooming salon he wanted so bad, but it seems he just wants somebody to take care of him. He is a fraud and he used her, this man did not become a DL brother after moving here, let the Gay and Lesbian Alliance tell it you are born Gay, SO THERE YOU GO!

Comment: I am really not surprised to see some of you woman hating a**s putting down Terri and defending her bitchy ex-husband. Black woman have the highest cases of AIDS due to people like Jonathan. Some of you need to keep this in mind.

Name: DCGG
Comment: Who gives a rats azz about either one of these fuvkin losers...they're both at fault and now acting like stoopid azz kids...Terry and Jonathan grow the fuvk up bytches!

Name: archcookies
Comment: First of all he is not writing a book to help black men he just wants to line his pockets. Now to Ms. McMillan, first of all the dyck must have been dayum good for her to pack this "child" to America and then marry him, looking at him would have set off alarms in my mind plus 23 yrs is a really big difference in age. She should have know that the man was using her for something other than love. Sorry she had to learn the hard way but she by far was the knuckle head in this situation. Her performance on Oprah a couple of years ago was painful to watch because this woman really is obessessed with this man.

Comment: She's not so stupid. She's rich but had to pay only 55Gs to get rid of him according to the <a href="http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a /2007/01/21/BAGOCNMFIR1.DTL&hw=Terry+McMillan&sn=001&s c=1000">Chronicle story</a>. I believe she'd take him back in a minute if he'd have her - that's why he can still call her any time.

Name: lucy
Comment: hmmm sorry for my lame attempt at html. The Chronicle story is here http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/article.cgi?f=/c/a/2007/ 01/21/BAGOCNMFIR1.DTL&hw=Terry+McMillan&sn=001&sc=1000

Comment: Next....................

Name: gingerg
Comment: Terry McMillan better learn how to take the high road - and quick. This loser can't control her life unless she allows him to. She has become obsessed and consumed by his conduct and he is enjoying it. It would be a shame to see this sister take her life over a peice of trash like him.

Name: gingerg
Comment: One more thing, I remember how she went on about how attractive he was and he would have a cameo in Stella. When I saw him, I was like, what the he111! I would have left his ugly azz in Jamaica.

Name: UPTO
Comment: I wonder if Angela B. and the guy who played J's part (cant think of his name right now) are embarrassed to have played those roles. What a train wreck! If the role of J's mother was accurate (not wanting her son to get with Terry) then Terry should have LISTENED TO HIS MOM!!

Name: PRDC
Comment: What in the world did she think...looking at him way back...he had that look and with her being 23 years older should have waited to see what she was working with...excuse me..he could be her son,and the only thing he could give her at the time was hopefully very good love making. I think that goes for everyone that like much younger mates...one of you will become tire of the other. Plus on Ophra(?) Terry acted as if she made a mine problem....so you get what you get...but she is not the only one these days...but watch out for what you think you have.....

Name: gingerg
Comment: She must have some kind of mental block where he is concerned. For years, she was the brains in the marriage and controlled things because she has the money and was dependent on him for sex. He has turned the tables and the probably couldn't imagine being with a real man. If she had any sense, she would clean up her image, start enjoying her lifestyle and find a decent man.

Name: gingerg
Comment: I would tell a Jonathan to kiss my azz and remind him that he will never be anything other than a small time hustler.

Name: MrUnapologetic37
Comment: Hmmmmm... Although I was initially surprised at how Terry has handled all this, I had to revert to the realization that she is a woman and human. I really do believe she was in love with J. Plummer and YES probably for the wrong reasons, but I believe she loved him nonetheless. And Love has made a fool out of a lot of people or so it seems. And because she writes these liberating novels about black love and triumph in the midst of adversity does not make her immune to drama. She's angry and hurt right now - and rightfully so. As for J. Plummer, he used her and that's the bottom line in my opinion. Everything about him - all his actions thus far have been about money and the pursuit of it. Get a damn job, Bruh, and work to make a life for yourself like the rest of us. You're a citizen now was that NOT the goal? You did that by any means necessary. J-Plummer needs to man-up! Just because you're gay means nothing to me... Leave that damn woman alone and go about your business. And, Terri, oh dear Terri... get a damn clue! Cut the access! If you want him out your life, Sista, you have to put him out and keep him out. That's on you.

Comment: >Alexander - I predict 250 by the end of the day on this one! Too bad for Terry and her ex-husband - what were the vows given..."'till death due us part."

Name: DOne
Comment: Most women with money who marry broke men go through the same thing. Either they give him the money or he writes a tell all book. Janet went through this. JLo is going through. Britney Speres is going to go through it. Whitney would be going through it if Bobby thought she had any more left. If she makes a big comeback, don't be surprised if Bobby all of a certain decides to write a tell all book.

Comment: Damn EURWEB has the smartest, strongest, clairvoyant chicks on the planet up in here. LOL Thank you MrUnapologentic37 you at least understand empathy and the human condition. Folks are quick to call someone stupid. Love has no rhyme or reason sometimes people fall in love with the wrong people and it takes a little time to figure it out. It’s called life people. In other words %*$! happens. Leave Terry alone, I’m sure you can not make her feel any worse then she already does.

Name: queeniebunz
Comment: Someone said this is the read of the summer but nobody should buy this book. It will only encourage other low lifes to do this. He used her. He could have potentially killed her. Now he's exploiting her again. Yeah, she wanted to believe she could have love and happiness that she ignored the signs but haven't all women done that at one time or another? I know I have. Why so hard on her? The way she is acting crazy - it's because she is angry and hurt. Anger and hurt rarely lead to logical, rational behavior. Yeah, she is making herself look ridiculous. Yeah, she should move on but that is easy for someone to say when they aren't feeling all of those turbulent emotions. Yes, I speak from experience. I feel for her. I am doubly sorry because her pain is on display for all the world to see. But she'll get through this and eventually in some kind of way, he will get his.

Name: imtalking
Comment: His whole swag was fag!For all the Terry MC's ... Women stop being so desperate- being a single black women is not going to kill you! I dumbed a dude for talking about how fine his was. That's gay to me.

Name: ImJustAsking
Comment: who gives a f*ck about Terry McMillan? what could he possibly tell us about her that would be interesting? She is totally not famous enough for someone to write a tell all about her. By her ignoring all his gay signs and marrying him anyway, she told us everything we need to know about her - that she was lonely and desperate. The End.

Name: gingerg
Comment: Secret, Terry has had more than enough time to get this man out of her system. He has made a fool out of her for the whole world to see and she's still letting him contact her? Please. She is the one in control here and doesn't even realize it. I'm sure there are some decent, educated men out there who would appreciate her. However, she has to be ready to let Jonathan go and reach out for something better. Now, if she wants to wallow the mud for the rest of her life, she has that option. And one more thing, Terry has a son to think about. What does this situation say to him?

Comment: (Consistent w/the powerless women syndrome) Why is it that Johnathan could not have been in love w/Terri. Why is SHE the only "loving" party in this? Cuz she's the one w/money? Or bcuz she's a woman? She used him..he used her..and it's Johnathan's fault? Uhm..ok. BTW, if Superhead and 'nem can write a ridiculous book...then so can he.

Name: gingerg
Comment: You talking now, Musderbs. Never looked at it that way. However, people who genuinely love one another do not use each other and then engage in the type of malicious tactics that are being employed here. I agree that Terry used him, too. I would dare say that he is not worth what he will ultimately cost her financially or healthwise. I also agree with the people who say that she has probably slept with him and will do so again if he's willing. She ignored the risks while they were married, so this should be no different.

Name: YLawdY
Comment: Why is Terry getting bashed? She's hurt, angry, disillusioned? O.K., but she's way too public with it. That's why she gets bashed. If you have enough drama with someone to have a restraining order, how in the world do they still have access to your phone number to leave you a message? Why are you talking to the press? Talk to your lawyers. Game over.

Name: Shortey71
Comment: He's writing a book??? Now if the book becomes #1 Seller can you imagine how many other brother's are going to come out to get paid??? He is opening the door for all of the D.L. Brotha's. Who's next Al Reynolds cause we all know what's up with him!

Name: gingerg
Comment: Jonathan is not writing a book. Someone is writing it for him and he is going to try to get paid. This is a man who reportedly dropped out of a community college and could not keep a dog grooming business going. Terry McMillan needs her azz kicked for getting involved with him in the first place.

Name: McNasty
Comment: Deb70 that's just it - didn't she say when this first hit the fan that they didn't really get down like that?! She stayed long after she should have left and idiots like 2121 are under the misguided notion that shat like this only cuts one way. She knew but ignored the signs, she was told but chose to ignore her friends and some of those island women. She has to take responsibility for the part she played in this. The only thing this article is saying that none of us knew is she is still letting this fool keep in touch. Speaks volumes so y'all keep your criticism to yourself and explain love the right way to your kids!

Name: Southernbelle
Comment: I cosign musb, I believe they used each other. He wanted citizenship and a free ride and she wanted good lovin and companionship. Unfortunately, he couldn't stand her enough to keep up this facade. Well now the "fairy tale" marriage has ended and the buck stops here. He should just go away and be happy, gay and broke.

Name: Teigh
Comment: BOOT>give it to us again, my paraphrase did not do justice to the way you put it down the first go round!

Name: stscott
Comment: I hate it when people go in circles. This is cut and dry. Terry was DESPERATE and if not seeing ONE SIGN the man was gay doesn't prove it, what will?! He KNEW his a$$ liked MEN all along--there is NO confusion when you are his age. It's called denial. He SAW clearly he had an up and coming, desperate for a man, FOOLish woman and worked that in his favor to improve his life. He wanted to PRETEND to give her what she wanted and perhaps he felt he was PAYING for what he got pretending to be the love of her life. Terry's story is one to be told. NOT for the drama but for EVERY woman who suffers from the same desperation Terry did at the time she looked away from a man who LOOKS obviously homosexual to open her legs, her heart, and home ONLY to be publicly humiliated and shamed by him throwing her away so he can meet his Mr. Right. I be dayum.

Comment: As they say: Cut him low, cut him s-l-o-w...

Name: gingerg
Comment: She should have known that he was lying when he told her he didn't realize she was famous/rich when they met in Jamaica. Terry believed what she wanted to believe and she is dealing with the consequences. I still say she doesn't have to wallow in the mud. She sounds like she is on the verge of suicide.

Name: Angel
Comment: Musb - I agree as well. I understand Terry is hurt, but she really needs to see her part in this debacle. She was desperate for affection and ignored the signs--she's human. This dude was practically a boy when she plucked him out of Jamaica. Let's see, stay in Jamaica in a dead end job or move to the U.S. with this rich woman that's throwing herself at me?--he's human, too. However, his current antics are low class, but Terry should know the rules. When you are rich and want privacy, you have to pay for it unfortunately. Instead of her being dead set on not giving him a dime, she should've given him a decent settlement in exchange for an iron-clad confidentiality agreement with all the bells and whistles which would prevent him from disclosing anything that occurred during their relationship, along with a "do not contact me ever" clause. LOL

Comment: Terry, I will be praying for you. Keep the faith.

Name: stscott
Comment: msbtherbs...I am not coming at you. What you wrote had some merit. I think you almost had a point in that they USED each other. It's difficult to say she USED him when we KNOW for sure people don't wake up gay one day at his age. If she used him-- FOR WHAT? Do you think for his youth or the hump in his back? Inspire good books that sold millions? Money doesn't insight sympathy or lack of it in this case. WHY do I say that? because most people feel the rich can BUY whatever they need, even happiness. People THOUGHT because she could write a good book, she would beyond stupidity. A lack of money doesn't insight sympathy because if it did the epidemic of poverty would not exist in America. So we go to the root of the situation. She was FOOLISH for looking pass what should have been good sense to see him for what he IS. Do you think he fooled himself that men don't excite him? If he LOVED her EVER, he would NOT be going public or chasing dollars. Famous people DIE and no one knows the real reason. Do you think year after year when he realized he was MARRIED he waited until his citizenship was FINAL to figure out his sexuality... GIVE ME A BREAK. Women sympathize with Terry because they can feel her PAIN, there is a shortage of DECENT men to go around...case and point. If you want the two to share the blame for the failure of their marriage they just can't.

Comment: Well now,here we have another Gay story.Well i had the pleasure of meeting Jonathan when he came to NYC to be on the WENDY WILLIAMS radio show.In talking with Jonathan I was privey to some very interesting tidbits.Yes he was nineteen years old when he first met Terry ,and did not know who she was.You see in Jamaica they don't do the Celebrity thing at all.That is why few Celebrity's go there.Then a few weeks later she came back to jamaica and so she pursued him even though she was 43 yrs old.He said at the time he was having mixed feelings for both men and women but he supressed his gay feelings.Because just like in Africa in Jamaica you can be stoned to death or worst for being Gay.He truly loved Terry but can't honestly say that he was IN-LOVE.Long story short is was a good relationship even after the marriage which is what she wanted at that time and i do remember seeing them getting married on the beach.Sometime after the relationship took a bad turn.Terry became angry with alot a people not just Gay's but she really went over the edge when he tried to discuss his feelings.She was not having any of it,she tried to get his citizenship revoked.The Judge told her to get real,nobody duped you into to marrying such a young man nor was there any type of Blackmail.What would he Balckmail her about.I feel for Ms.McMillian, but when do we women stop rushing into relationships so quickly whether it's a young or older man.Take your time, maybe that may help in getting to really know someone.I think that Jonathan's book may help alot of men on the "DL"at least he had the guts to end his marriage because it was wrong to do that to Terry and to himself as well.Especially if that's not where you want to be.For those of you who don't know,they did get back together for a moment.Terry wanted to see if she could change his mind.And Ladies he is so "FINE" gay or not.I'll be buying his book,why not terry's made her Money and she even made money off of their love story and he received nada'.I wish everyone well,but I'm in Jonathan's corner.Peace and Blessings

Comment: Settling doesn't resolve anything. Look at JLO. She's still trying to keep her first husband quiet.

Name: gingerg
Comment: Terry is kind of low class herself. She seems like the kind of sister that would wake up one day and go over to that salon and pop a cap on him.

Name: gingerg
Comment: And one more thing, if Terry loses her fan base, she is really going to be up a creek. Sisters only tolerate foolishness when it is between the pages of a novel.

Name: WordUp
Comment: It is really f'd up how people see things differently. Black women crave love from black men. To wake up and find out you married a faggit is something to be enraged. I don't know how Terri has managed to keep her sanity and not do something stupid to phuc that mongo lips basturd up! I suppose women in Jonathan's corner don't mind gettin witta fag!

Name: Angel
Comment: gingerg - It is my understanding that the original agreement that JLo had with her first ex did not include all of the bells and whistles necessary to prevent him from disclosing personal information about her. There are plenty of rich folks that you don't hear a peep about from their exes. Terry needs to talk to their lawyer. LOL

Name: SweetieDarlin
Comment: Who ever thought Terry had sense? Everyone one of her books have women who make poor choices, Mama, Disappearing Acts, Day Late Dollar Short etc, even Waiting To Exhale. Yes she is an excellent writer but like the characters in her books she has flaws, in fact I've always thought that each character she wrote about was a part of her and her growth as a woman. How Stella Got Her Groove back also seemed like a recipe for disaster, even in the book the Jamaican Dude didn't ask her to marry him until he got to America and saw how she was living, anywayit's unfortunate but I would pay that fool off and let it go. She initially wanted him for sex and companionship, which he provided for while, and if he wasn't gay she would still be hanging, banging and paying for everything so what's the difference. Maybe he lied about his sexual preference in the beginning and she absolutely had no clue in spite of being on the earth 43 years at the time and maybe he just discovered that he preferred men whatever it's time for this saga to had an ending. Heck let them both write books as they have planned, that might be a solution to get him paid and he can go away as someone else said, what could he say that shocking about Terry?? BTW Terry is a drama queen, how long is the victim role going to last, move on, find a straight man closer to your financial status and age and leave the boy toys at the resorts if you have to get your groove back again.

Name: MrUnapologetic37
Comment: Some of y'all on here are just flat out crazy, hard-hearted and unforgiving. Damn! As for StellaBaby5's comment about J-Plummer's book helping those on the DL - don't hold your breathe. That brother is still confused. Besides he never said his book was about helping people - it's going to be fiction! He's looking for a quick buck. And for all of you on here who have such hard criticism for Terry, kill the noise! At the end of the day we all make mistakes - even in who we choose to love. Where is the damn compassion? And as usual her worst critics are women! Ladies, y'all know how this works... don't get brand new.

Name: CalyQT
Comment: Perhaps she always knew but felt she was "woman" and rich enuf to make him change & it just didn't work. Something to think about...

Name: gingerg
Comment: I confess! I've been a fool once or twice myself, but it didn't last for over a year. And I know that you can leave a person who doesn't mean you well alone. I just can't figure out why Terry McMillan isn't out enjoying the fruits of her labor, spending quality time with her son, enjoying time an an exclusive spa or anything besides tit and tat with Jonathan. There have been people in my life that I've had to just walk away from because they were toxic. Dealing with them made me physically ill and when I stopped visiting and taking their calls, the symptoms stopped. And I'm ok with that.

Name: ImJustAsking
Comment: Stella< I see where you are coming from, but not wanting people to find out you're a chi chi mon doesn't mean you have to marry a beard. Terry made a mistake when she acted out on her desperate feelings but just b/c someone can easily be taken advantage of, doesn't mean you are right to do it. I think that if any of us sat down with either of them we could empathize with either story. But I think the point most people are making is that they are both going too far but more disappointment is expressed over Terry's actions b/c she actually has earning potential and an established career. I think most people, especially black women, expect a little more out of her at this point.

Name: ImJustAsking
Comment: OH yeah and I don't believe that Jonathan didn't know he was gay. He may have 'struggled' with his sexuality in the sense that he didn't want it to be true. But homosexual identity is developed around the age of 9 so he's known what the deal was for a long time. However, I seriously don't understand why anyone would want to date a 19 year old. I didn't date 19 year olds when I was 19.

Name: gingerg
Comment: Jonathan is getting paid just like K-Fed. Do you believe Nationwide just paid that loser between $250,000 and $500,000 to appear in a commercial. He has no apparent skills besides baby making.

Name: Stephanie
Comment: He sold his self short for trying to get over and his plan did semi work because he got a green card. If he needs money, do a drag show or something. She was at least smart enough to get a prenup. I wouldn't give him the satisfaction of entertaining his foolishness. He's desperate and broke. Let him write his tell all and wish him well but to go back and forth like pre-schoolers is stupid. Yes, she got played but she set her own self up for that one. Everyone plays the fool at one time or another and the best way to beat somebody like him at his game, is to simply ignore him. I just hope she doesn't do anything stupid like hire somebody to kill him because she is crazy but regardless, people still will buy her books whereas, who wants to read about a fag who played a rich American to get citizenship...pulease...

Comment: Well hot dayum...how else pretty boy is going to get his money since Terry already made it clear she's not going to pay alimony? At least he can say he did some work for his cash (LOL). Other than that Terry and Jonathan needs to end this joke- turning- into- a-major-trainwreck public drama.

Comment: If battyboi was having mixed feelings at 19 and she was pursuing him, left the island and came back that should have been enough time for him to formulate the words I'm gay or at the very least I'm confused sexually! He didn't Although I'm glad this punk does have one person in his corner - no surprise there!

Comment: Word Up and Stephanie! ---> Damn! Y'all had 'fag' Wheaties this morning? Y'all could sit up with Terry in her kitchen and have some Tropicana juice and Smirnoff like in the old days (who'd smoke the Virginia Slims?). I'm not taking up for Jonathan--he looks like he fell into a pot of Carmex and Fashion Fair. However, Terry milked it for all it was worth in the beginning. Who goes to Jamaica and brings home the bonin'? It's a repressed, functionally illiterate country, so why bring home the help? She knew she was controlling all of that. So, she was too out there with it. He's just an idiot and an opportunist. He's a citizen now, so can't he go work at Hardee's or sump'in? Terry McMillan looks like she's losing it. Grow up sista! She's acting like a Madea movie without the tittees. I'm sick of both of them. She needs to settle and stop trippin'. Oprah bought the rights to her last shi**y book. Terry needs to learn how to say no comment and move on to the gardener (or cable man, preferrably American).

Comment: Ladies, help me here. Why bother with someone like Jonathan when you can get a mature, intelligent, well-read, well-traveled, distinguished, handsome, professional, paid brother? Talking to Jonathan must be like conversing with a 16-year-old.

Name: Babygurl
Comment: Terry is gangsta...I wouldn't even mess with her like that. Plus, he's real wrong for what he did and if he's going to write a book, it should be about that. He could have given her AIDS/HIV by doing what he did. And to say he expected more from the divorce settlement is Ludacris. He didn't help her get or keep what she's got so why should she...he should be paying her for jeapordizing her health and well being...lying and deceiving.

Comment: Gingerg for some women jamaican patoi is sexy, so much so they don't realize the brothers have no real conversation or thought processes other than getting citizenship and or their hand elbow deep in your pocket if you have more than two nickles to rub together. Terry was old enough to know better - she just didn't listen.

Comment: Ya'll acting like Terry is crazy. Jonathon is lucky she's not me because I would've woken up this morning, read that article, bought the salon he works at, fired him, then bought the next two closest salons to prove a point! I can't imagine getting over that kind of national embarrassment already. It would take me a minute. I do agree that they used each other, but Terry's use of him bettered his life (financially). His use of her only made her life worse (emotionally). He really has a lot of nerve though. I hope nobody buys his book. I am so tired of the "guess who I slept with" genre made popular by Superhead and Nas's baby moms.

Comment: TMac.TMac.TMac...You know how you just wana shake the shyt out of somebody. She know exactly what she doing & how to go about ending this nonsense. She just don't want to she's enjoying every bit of this. She has the power & she in control she's not done she is a glut. With a snap of the finger it could be a done deal. Ain't nothin like Money..Power & Respect! Too bad I don't have the Money part.

Comment: I take issue with someone's statement that Terri is an excellent writer, I don't think so, she wrote for a certain audience but to me most of the books were crudely written and I have read, Mama (the only one I really liked), Waiting and Dissappearing Acts. She fell into a certain niche and got an audience but to proclaim her as excellent is in my opinion is too much credit for her talent.

Comment: "Who goes to Jamaica and brings home the bonin'? It's a repressed, functionally illiterate country, so why bring home the help?" Kbig, as a Jamaican, I have to say you are an idiot! I am neither repressed, nor am I illiterate, so please don't pass judgment on my country!

Comment: TM was apparently going through a very insecure time to marry someone so quickly. But marriage, legally speaking, is what it is, and after the deed is done the person you married will be a well-embedded part of your life, for better or for worse, for some time to come (if not forever). So no need for her to get childish and pout and threaten now.

Name: gingerg
Comment: archcookies, you are right about that. I tried to read her last book, but just quit. I can't stand run on sentences and such. I'm not crawling into the gutter with anybody over some foolishness. Success, wealth and health are the best revenge.

Comment: Kbig, you are hilarious!!!

Name: Angel
Comment: gingerg - You are so right. Success is the best revenge. He's talking about voicemails she left out of anger. I don't know any rational folks in the gay community that would get behind his azz in an attempt to ruin her. And didn't he already play some of those voicemails for the public when they were going through the divorce proceedings?! So if I were her, I'd tell him "good luck with your book" and keep it moving. If she took the high road, he'd look truly pathetic. But if the crazy side of Terry comes out again....she's going to look deranged and he would get the sympathy vote from some.

Comment: Cornbead, you need to calm the F..k down! Ain't need to get all stupid because women to have to take some responsibility in who they sleep with. Your hate is misplaced and misdirected, Bro! Yeah, take your azz somewhere to get anger management. Coming up in here hollering like you paid this site... Get it together (lol).

Comment: STUPID JUST STUPID This whole shat sounds just as stupid as the 2 of them are. Gees. You are divorced. Just be done with it already. Terri shoud have put a confidentiality agreement in place. I am sure she could find other shat to write about besides something that caused her so much pain.

Comment: I saw Terry McMillan on Oprah with Jonathan. She was angry, but still managed to blush when he said something. I found that so odd. I would have been scratching his eyes out on national television.

Name: Angel
Comment: gingerg - And then when Oprah revealed that they had a bubble bath together just the night before, I was like WTF?!? They have a very strange bond to say the least. And I'm willing to bet the Terry tried to hit it one more time after that appearance on the Oprah show. I really feel sorry for her.

Name: gingerg
Comment: That was a trip, too. I was like, this ugly mofo is on national television admitting that he slept with men while married to her and she took a bubble bath with him. And you are right, Terry seems like the type who likes to argue/fight and then make up with sex. However, one couldn't help but wonder, where has this man's mouth been before he kissed me and where else has his organ been? Now, that is enough to give a sister pause whether she is crazy as he11!, sprung or whatever.

Name: YLawdY
Comment: Wow...some strong words being spoken here. Why? Speaking up for what's fair makes one gay? On another note...I'm a frequent visitor to Jamaica and must say I don't know where the functionally illiterate comment came from. Again, wow!

Name: MzTee
Comment: Damn...these folks are back in the news again.(LOL) I certainly don't claim to be clairvoyent and wasn't in their house with them during their marriage, so I'm not going to speculate NOR judge who did what to whom and why and all of that madness. If Terry wants her peace of mind back, she needs to stop Jonathan from having access to her -- point blank. He should only communicate with her through her attorney and vice a versa. This incident is just plain silliness on both Terry's and Jonathan's part. They are both acting like children and it's not attractive. More than likely, they both are at fault and need to take responsibility for their respective actions in the demise of their marriage. Instead of tearing each other apart in public, they just need to keep it moving. The sooner they do, the sooner they can get on with their lives and find the happiness they both deserve.

Comment: cornbread-- you need some milk and a xanax, fu shcnickens? I worry you may have overdosed; don't have an aneurysm, especially if you're typing all of that in your drawz. To beegirl---I'm not an idiot and I'm not dissin' Jamaica, but it is economically depressed and the literacy rate is beyond belief---Tavis Smiley would tell you the same thing, so it's not hating. Terry's ex did work at her hotel and she married the dude, so I'm just saying. No one's dissin' your country. I'm talking about one dumb-azz dude from the islands and a dumb-azz American author who both milked their romance for days and day$. I'm sure they're both hurt but we've heard enough.

Name: kbig
Comment: Jamaica isn't an illiterate country I'm just saying that their literacy rate is around 81%-91% for the nation whereas the U.S. has a literacy rate of 99%----now that's a lot, because we know there's some non-readin' peeps in the U.S. That's all I'm saying on that. Not saying they're simple.

Comment: he11, this could be a publicity stunt by Terry M and her shi++y fag exhusband.

Name: gingerg
Comment: Jonathan must be using some kind of jedi mind trick on Terry. She's actually got the upper hand here. He's probably sleeping with whomever and if she's fortunate enough to not have contracted HIV/AIDS or gonnorrhea from him, she's the lucky one. It's like others on here said - keep it moving.

Comment: archcookies you are so right. I stopped reading her in my twenties. My tastes matured. All of her characters were the same in a lot of her books. I liked Mama, Disappering Acts and Waiting, but then again I was in my early 20s when I read them.

Comment: I know its late but, I hope this comment does some good for somebody. Going through divorce is sort of like trench warfare like the kind in WW1 ( a whole lot carnage just to gain a little ground) Going through a divorce is in the top five of the most traumatic events one could experience. The top ones are losing a child, death of spouse, death of parent, victim of violence, etc. What we are seeing is the carnage of divorce being played out publicly. What we are seeing is two deeply wounded people acting out in public. At the same time they did share a life together. It is not unusual for couples to conceive a child while in the midst of divorce proceedings. When the dust settles, they will take years to finally heal. I wish them both the best.

Name: WorkingMyShow
Comment: I know Terry is NOT going to like when this book comes out--because she did the same thing to her son's father when she "fictionalized" their story and wrote the book Disappearing Acts, about how he cheated all the time, and then bailed out on her and her son. He then tried unsuccessfully to sue for cash, but the judge threw his case out. Now the chickens have come home to roost for her with Jonathan.

Name: BigDaddy48
Comment: Terry, should stop lying that she didn't know her ex-husband was GAY! I live near them and her son and my son hung out together all through High School and when my son first meet Terry and her husband back in 1998, he came home saying that the man was gay! Throughout the area in all of the stores, shops, barber shops and anywhere else everyone would comment "That Boy is Gay". She might wanted to believe it or maybe she had a mission to change him but, there isn't any surprise that has recently came out.

Comment: They are Freaking CRAZY!!!!!. When they were on the Oprah show, Ms. McMillan seemed as if Mr. Plummer would say i will take you back she would have been like, OK!!!!!!!. I feel sorry for her, but you have to let Mr. Plummer go, and it dosen't seem like you are willing to do that untill now when he is going to write a book @ you. And shame on Mr. Plummer, you will learn that you don't tell personal information for personal gain. You will learn the truth of the saying "Nothing like a woman's SCORN!!!!!. I hope that it works out for Ms. McMillan in the long run, will be looking for your book to come out. I currently own several now. Why don't you come up with a movie about this situation, i would love to see it. I loved Stella movie. And lastly, Mr. Plummer, GET A FREAKING LIFE AND STOP TRYING TO MOOCH OF MS. MCMILLAN. And what a low blow to get clients at your shop and move away from MS. MCMILLAN!!!!!!!!!!!

Name: sweetpea
Comment: This is really sad. I pray that Terry will ask God for strength and forgiveness for herself and Jonathan. She sounds hurt, angry, and bitter and she needs to move on and admit to some of the responsibility for this drama. Sometimes as people we don't want to see signs, red flags etc. that something is not right and we choose to do what we want instead of listening to our inner spirit. I pray she will get through this.

Name: pjlaw22
Comment: My, My, My.....I just cant watch "When Stella got her Groove Back" anymore, it just not the same, and I look for things in the Movie, just to see if I see any signs. Damn, I have a Jamacian friend who is interested in me, he is a citizen, BUT, Im like I dont think so (my friends have mentioned that he might favor the female side), and he is younger than me (11 years). This gives me a lot of insight. On the topic, I too hope that Ms. Terry gets through this.

Name: Tosh
Comment: Where were Terri's "Waiting to "Exhale" crew..no not the cast, but her girls? I know a few females who would have shaken some sense into their friend. You know she flossed and had 'ole boy posing at every party. How many remember when you first saw the picture of the dude? I remember hearing "that brother is gay, check his demeanor, his eyebrows and lips". What could possibly be the "tell all", that she freaked with him? Damn, I think we gathered that. Terri needs to dilute the process and fess up that she was freakin' and a total fool. Call Oprah Terri, release yourself. What a trip!
