RUSSEL SIMMONS SOUNDS OFF ON CHILD SUPPORT


So lately folks have been blogging and rumoring about Russell Simmons supposedly being ordered to pay his recently ex-wife, Kimora Lee Simmons $40K a month in child support. In response, Russell has posted the following on his blog.

"I am reading these stories today about how a judge ordered me to pay Kimora $40,000 a month in child support and I want to make something very clear. Nothing was ordered, it was given. My kids have a fabulous life; they are exposed to a broad range of artistic and scholastic educational programs and I'm very happy to contribute to that. As long as I have it, they can have it. If I ever don't have it, I'm coming to live with them!"

- Russell Simmons

According to sources, Simmons will have custody of the girls every eighth week during the school year and on a handful of holidays. Kimora and Russell seem to have a very amicable divorce and don't seem to have all the drama like other Hollywood couples. Actually, maybe some folks ought to take notes on how to act cordial when there are kids involved (coughs...Alec Baldwin)
