Slumdog Starlett almost Sold by Her Own Daddy...

Slumdog Millionaire starlet RUBINA ALI'S father was arrested last night over claims he tried to sell his daughter for $200,000 to some rich guy who's wife is unable to have children...

"....the [rich dude] had been phoning him since Slumdog swept the Oscars in January and had explained that his wife could not have children.
At the hotel Latika actress Rubina was showered with gifts including gold jewelry and chocolate, and he believed the couple were only interested in her welfare.
They were summoned back again the next day, at which an assistant informed Rafiq that the sheikh would like to bring the girl up as his own.
Rafiq,a $2-a-day laborer, said: "I politely said Rubina is happy with me and wanted to leave. After this they made an offer of money in English which I did not understand. "Then they requested me to leave her there overnight and take her in the morning. I refused and took Rubina away with me."
However, family friend Dinesh Dubey said Rubina was finding the whole drama "funny" and had asked Rafiq: "Father, how did you land in trouble - because of me?" source

(n):LOL, so basically he was arrested because someone thought his daughter was cute and wanted to, then, buy her? I don't see, according to this story, where the crime took place on the fathers behalf...Dude w/ the dried up wife should probably do some research on regular abortion and try to raise his own little actress...just a thought...
(L): weird... but you definitely aren't supposed to SELL your kid. Thats crazy... People need to stop having babies if they cant raise them right! As a matter of fact, just stop having sex!

A letter to his father Al B. Sure...

Letter To My Father - iQ

Quincy "IQ" Brown wrote and created this song which is an expression of the feelings he has towards absence of his father (Al B. Sure) in his life. He had this to say:

A Letter To My Father
I’ve been inspired throughout my life by special circumstances and unique experiences. Foremost, I grew up with a family that injected me with unconditional love and enduring confidence. This is my foundation … the family holidays and celebrations with my maternal lineage … supportive smiles in audiences at school programs … guiding hands to complete homework and special projects in the wee hours of the morning.
However, I grew up without my father, an irreplaceable force and influence that was absent in my life. I watched other kids enjoy the embrace of theirs, and I searched for a way to reconcile the meaning of my circumstance.
Despite my pain, I’ve imagined a life as a good son with my father. Baseball … Playing in School Band … Church … All of the things that he would expect his son to do, I’ve done. I’ve stood in front of audiences to receive awards. I heard their applause and praise. But, the accolades have been absent the sound of his clapping hands and encouraging words … his voice that I could distinguish in my sleep. Where has he been?
Now, I reflect on the journey, the pain, the challenges, and the triumphs through this song. I’m reconciled as a man, no longer a boy, in verse. Now, I know that I’m not alone.
Albert Brown, also known as “Al B Sure!” is my biological father, but Sean Combs, also known as “Diddy” has been a father figure in my life for as long as I can remember. Sean Combs is the person whom I look up to and appreciate as a father. He is the one who help mold me into the person I am today and will always try to live up to his expectations. He has always been supportive of me and I will forever love and respect him. As far as my biological father goes, the “spitting image” is all I have taken from him. Throughout my life, I’ve always wondered about him; Where he was? What was he doing? and most importantly, Was he even thinking about me? The absence of my father has given me a better understanding of what type of man I am going to be. I am grateful for my mom’s love, support, guidance, and for her strength.
To those who share my plight, know that you have a great future … a DESTINY. Take the lemons that you are handed and make lemonade. Your journey is in “A Letter To My Father.”

(n): I must say, this song is soooo powerful and dude's dad should feel no more than shitty after hearing this...They have the same birthday and he didn't even get phone calls? YIKES. How sad...I am happy Diddy stepped up to the plate, that's quite honorable. I have no respect for deadbeat dads...child support is far from enough when it comes to being a part of a child's life. I am happy he put his dad on blast. There's no excuse, especially in his situation.

(L): Yea shame on him! But I think I rather be an orphan than be Diddy's step-kid. He probably trys to make Quincy just as GAY as him!
