Doug and Jackie Christie did what they both thought they had to do in order to stay together. Doug is a millionaire NBA player with women waiting in the wings to get at him. Michael Jordan, Charles Barkley, Patrick Ewing and a host of other players have cheated on their wives and broken apart their families because temptation was a b.i.t.ch. This couple knows the dangers and chose to cling to each other in order not to fall victim to the pitfalls of Doug’s job and had the support of their families who helped raise the children. I bet this young lady has her head on straight and it appears her mom and dad had a lot to do with that. Good luck to her and Jackie Christie is a bad *** sister. Women hated her cause she wasn’t about to let another wench come along and take her man.

She’s too young for me to comment about this. I’m biting my tongue now. There are a few things that I don’t like about this whole thing. The music, the show, the photos… I dunno.

i need to hear some material from her before i say anything
she is really pretty and big up to all women that fought to get what they have and hold on to it
Majesa said,
She’s fourteen? Really? I don’t even know who she is but if someone had said she was 25 I wouldn’t have blinked once or thought twice. But…on a more positive note…Best wishes on her projects and whatnot.

The music industry has changed so much for the worst that I dont really support child entertainment. As far as her mother is concern, I am not going to judge her negatively because I am not in her situation. So far the only people who have been critical of the Christie’s marriage are white people and Uncle Toms–to me that is not a reliable source.
