Russell Simmons and his daughters Aoki Lee ,6, Ming Lee ,9, enjoy some father-daughter bonding at the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards on Saturday. Mom Kimora couldn't attend, but she was spotted out this past weekend looking phat.

Aoki and Ming are adorable. I've always admired how, with two such jet-setting, high-fashion, bigwig parents, these girls always look down to earth and normal. Let's hope they stay that way through their teen years. Mama, don't let your babies grow up to be Miley Cyrus.

Russell Simmons HAPPY To Pay $40,000 A Month In Child Support

Sassy Smith — Mon, 02 Mar 2009 13:09:00 GMT

Entrepreneur Russell Simmons and ex-wife Kimora Lee are parents to two daughters - Ming, 9, and Aoki, 6 - and early last week, it was reported Simmons was ordered to pay $40,000 per month for child support. However, he wants to clear something up - he says he was not ordered to pay it - he happily pays it.

Simmons writes 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!

It's nice he's willing to pay his child support and I hope he also spends quality time with his girls!

What Celeb Won't Let Her Girls Wear Hoochie Mama Clothes?

Sassy Smith — Sun, 20 Jul 2008 15:03:00 GMT

If you're a mom to a daughter, you've seen some of the clothes out there - clothes that maybe a street walker would wear but that no sane mother would let her child put on. What celebrity mom is careful when it comes to her daughters' wardrobes?

Ex-model and Baby Phat designer, Kimora Lee Simmons is very protective of her girls, Ming, 8, and Aoki, 5, and refuses to let them wear provocative clothing.

"I would not let my daughters show their midriff," she said this week at the New York City launch of her new juniors line at JCPenney. It was even tough for her to see Ming in her halter dress. "That's a lot for me," she admitted.

"I feel like I've exposed my kids to a lot. We do lead a very high-voltage life so we have to taper back in other ways."

Her boyfriend, actor and model Djimon Honsou feels the same way. "He's very protective of them."

Kimora might be a bit of a diva at airports, but I like her philosophy when it comes to dressing her girls!

Kimora Lee Simmons Gets Full Custody of Daughters, Demands $480,000 in Child Support

Karen — Sat, 28 Jun 2008 21:35:00 GMT

Kimora Lee Simmons won full custody of daughters Ming Lee, 8 and Aoki, 5, and is now asking for $480,000 a year in child support.

In documents filed on Wednesday June 25, at Los Angeles Superior Court, the fashion model-turned-designer is asking for $20,000 per month for each of the couple's two daughters, but wants no spousal support from ex-husband and Def Jam Records co-founder Russell Simmons.

The couple married in 1998, and filed for divorce in 2006, citing irreconcilable differences.

Wait a minute, wasn't she pregnant with then boyfriend Djimon Hounsou's baby? Sources in June reported she was engaged to him (well she clearly loves him), but I'm guessing the baby bump thing was just a rumor. We'll be watching!

Kimora Lee Simmons - Stripping Down

Sassy Smith — Thu, 12 Jun 2008 11:03:00 GMT

Kimora Lee Simmons, CEO for Baby Phat (love Baby Phat!) has a few things to say. She's an ocassional actress, a business woman, outspoken, a mom of two daughters with ex-husband Russell Simmons, and now in a solid relationship with a man she adores - Calvin Klein underwear model, Djimon Hounsou. She shares her life lessons in Giant Magazine. She's stripping down if you will...

Kimora on being labeled a b*tch: “As a woman, if you’re outspoken and you know what you want, you’re a b*tch. And if you don’t know what you want, then you’re a ditz. It’s very hard to gain men’s respect, and men in the industry disrespected me all the time. Many [women] don’t know if they should speak up and run the risk of looking stupid or bitchy. I always say, ‘Go for bitchy’ ’cause they’re gonna say you’re a bitch no matter what.’ If you’re smart and you speak up, you’re a bitch. But at least you get what you want.”

Kimora on her relationship with Oscar-nominated actor and Calvin Klein underwear-model boyfriend Djimon Hounsou: “I’m just happy and grateful to go home to my kids and a man that loves and accepts me for me—glamorous or not.”

Kimora on marriage: “When you get married, you’re forced to drink the milk long after it’s spoiled.”

Kimora on her extreme diva status: “I hear the craziest things, like, ‘She has to have a champagne glass filled within a quarter inch of the lip. The reality, is I’m a dedicated mother [to daughters Ming Lee, 8, and Aoki Lee, 5] and a very kind, funny and hardworking person. My reality-TV show helps to shed a bit of light, but even that’s glamorized.”

Kimora on her core values: “Honour, respect, tenacity, intelligence and humour. Do your best, and live with the repercussions of your choices – good or bad.”

Okay, I bought the cutest Baby Phat handbag....no seriously, she sounds like a great lady and knows what she wants out of life. And her girls are adorable - look at the youngest one, that little "diva" face. Love it!

Kimora Lee Simmons: Fabulous! There's a Bun in That Oven

sweatpantsmom — Thu, 06 Mar 2008 21:05:00 GMT

That ain't no baby phat. Kimora Lee Simmons and boyfriend Djimon Hounsou are seen here at a movie premiere and it sure looks like she's pregnant . Either that or she's trying to sneak in her own popcorn underneath that dress. I stopped doing that when I got butter stains all over my Prada mini.

I used to like Kimora, until I caught a few minutes of her awful show, Life in the Fab Lane and saw her tossing her hair, cackling and yelling at her employees. She really does say 'fabulous' every five seconds, and by the end of the show I wanted to muzzle her with her own extensions.
