Beyond being très cool and ultra brilliant, Keri Hilson has shown and continues to show Africa some love. So, of course, we are loving her right back! The singer/songwriter graces the cover of JET Magazine where she discusses her music, money and men.
“She also is clear on the kind of man she does not want. “I don’t fancy entertainers or ball players. I just don’t want to be anybody’s trophy wife,” she declares. ” . . .the type of girl they look for is not me at all. They like a soft spoken submissive type who is cute and just wants to spend their money. Of course that is not all of them but that is usually the tone of the conversation that I’ve had with them. I tell them, ‘you thought I was that type of girl-well good to meet you,’ and I walk away. I was raised better than that. I know what a real relationship looks like from my parents. I want the real thing.”
