A Grammy nominated star, by the name of Elijah Blake.

Long before she rode high on charts with her signature hit ‘Dip It Low’, Christina Milian was by no means a stranger to the spotlight.  Spending most of her early teen years aboard various Disney broadcasts, her late teen years – like Christina Aguilera and Britney Spears before her – saw her sprout from Disney darling to sex kitten.

Sometimes what happens in the bedroom should stay in the bedroom.

Evidence of such was provided when rapper/media mogul Nick Cannon took to shock jock Howard Stern‘s radio show to dish on his love life with pop icon Mariah Carey.

The ‘Fantasy’ singers husband was not shy when listing some of his fantasies about his multi-octave wife and even detailed some aspects of the two’s sex life.  Needless to say, this is an interesting listen.  One we’re sure little Monroe & Moroccan will hope they don’t hear when they get old enough to understand.
