Meet Vanity Alpough, wife of NBA star Kendrick Perkins. Kendrick married his long time girlfriend Vanity at The Club at Carlton Woods in The Woodlands, Texas on July 25, 2009. The wedding party included more than 20 bridesmaids and groomsmen on each side and more than 250 guests. Some of the groomsmen included fellow NBA Players Stephen Jackson, Patrick O’Bryant, and Rajon Rondo.

The wedding was held outdoors under a tent. It was officiated by Rev. John Adolph. At the conclusion of the vows, they released white doves into the air. Following the ceremony, the newlyweds rode together in a horse drawn carriage before entering a purple, lavendar and brown themed reception.

Built in 1999 and located in the Haven Lake Estates subdivision, the two-story home offers five bedrooms, four full bathrooms and two half, swimming pool, three-car garage, pool room, bar, and 5,616 square feet.

Kendrick Perkins has played in the NBA for 6 years. Kendrick was drafted out of  high school in the first round with the 27th pick of the 2003 NBA Draft by the Memphis Grizzlies, but was immediately traded to the Boston Celtics in the same draft.

Why Are So Many Successful Black Women Single? Lets take a look!

Forty-two percent of  U.S. black women have never been married, double the number of white women who’ve never tied the knot.

For starters, there are 1.8 million more black women than black men. So even if every black man in America married a black woman today, one out of 12 black women still wouldn’t make it down the aisle if they hoped to marry a black man.

Let’s take 100 black men. By the time you eliminate those without a high school diploma (21 percent), the unemployed (17 percent) and those ages 25-34 who are incarcerated (8 percent), you have only half of black men, 54 percent, whom many black women find acceptable.

Early reports claimed that Mary J. Blige got into a fight with her husband, Kendu Isaacs,  after she caught him flirting with another woman. According to Mary J, that is not what actually happed. Mary J’s camp told the NY Daily News that she was simply trying to stop a brawl between Isaacs and her brother.

“Mary was not fighting with her husband,” said Blige spokeswoman Karynne Tencer. “Her husband and her brother got into an altercation that turned into a fight. Mary went to break up the fight.”

Club security helped the Grammy Award winner pull the men apart, who also disputed reports that Isaacs’ lip was bleeding.
