Eva Marcille (Pigford to the rest of you) was snapped modeling some $6000 Christian Louboutin Crystal Daffodil heels–and very little else.

Take a look at our favorite celebrity couples that are, that were, that can’t seem to decide between make-up and break-up, and even those that keep the entire thing under wraps. Diddy and Cassie Rumors about Sean “Diddy” Combs being romantically linked to singer Cassie Ventura circulated for years. Neither Cassie nor Diddy have confirmed or denied directly, but the two have been photographed extensively together and hints on Twitter leave most of us convinced the two are dating. Tabloids began reporting the couple’s engagement in 2008, but Combs’ reps quickly squashed the story, saying it was a complete fabrication. I guess we’ll just have to stay tuned! Cassie Spotted Shopping With Diddy’s Mom In Beverly Hills [PHOTOS] Nelly and Ashanti Nelly and Ashanti took great pains to remain hush-hush and avoid confirming their relationship over the few years they were continually spotted together. The two were constantly photographed out and about together, kissing, holding hands and cuddling, but both parties continued to claim they were “just friends”. They both remained committed first and foremost to their careers while still making time to enjoy each other’s company. Nelly’s made it clear he only wants to get married once: Will Ashanti be the one? Ashanti Reveals How She & Nelly Met For His “Behind The Music” Special Usher and Tameka Foster Usher and on-again, off-again love Tameka Foster’s relationship was riddled with drama. The couple was engaged in 2007. Foster brought three children into the marriage from two different men and was the subject of scorn by many gossip outlets and fans. After canceling their first wedding planned for July 2007, the couple was ultimately married in August 2007. Tameka suffered a cardiac arrest before going under the knife in Sao Paolo for cosmetic surgery. The couple had two children together, but filed for divorce in June 2009 after being estranged for nearly a year. For those of you counting: If that timing is true, the couple spent almost half of their 2 year marriage apart. Christina Milian and The-Dream Christina Milian and The-Dream wed in Vegas in September 2009. Christina gave birth to their daughter, Violet, in March 2010 as rumors of their failing relationship began to circulate. According to statements by the couple, they had already decided to call it quits as of late 2009, but did not share those plans publicly in an effort to protect their daughter. Photos of The-Dream canoodling in the Caribbean with his assistant, Melissa Santiago, surfaced and the fact that he wasn’t wearing his wedding band at the time confirmed the splitsville rumors were true. Is Christina Milian Back With Her Ex-Husband The Dream? Nas and Kelis Musical power-couple Nas and Kelis met at the MTV Video Music awards in 2002 and quickly made things official by marrying in Atlanta in July of 2005. The couple was expecting their first child in 2009, but a seven-months-pregnant Kelis filed for divorce. The couple was surrounded by scandal at the end of their relationship when a sex tape portraying Kelis with another man was sent in to the Wendy Williams Show. Adding fuel to the tabloid fire, Kelis gave birth to a baby boy on July 21, 2009 while her estranged hubby was out partying in the Queensbridge Projects. Two wrongs don’t make a right, but they do make it dunzo. Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon This May/November romance had many skeptics claiming it couldn’t last, but one $2.5 million diamond engagement ring and twin boys later, Mariah Carey and Nick Cannon are still going strong. With no formal engagement announcement or confirmation, Cannon and Carey married in the Bahamas in April 2008. The couple renewed their vows for their two-year anniversary — marking the occasion with an even bigger engagement ring replacement — and are expecting twins in May 2011. Mariah Carey’s Topless & Pregnant Shoot [PHOTO] Kanye West and Alexis Phifer Kanye West had a rough go of it in 2007 and 2008. In addition to dealing with his mother’s death, West broke off his engagement with long-time girlfriend Alexis Phifer. West and Phifer had been dating on and off since 2002 and got engaged shortly after Donda West’s sudden death. Kanye became consumed by plans for this Glow in the Dark tour, however, and the relationship suffered for it and the couple split in April of 2008.

Sources told gossip mags the couple had hit a “bumpy patch” in February 2009 but no one could have anticipated how far it would go. Brown pleaded guilty to felony assault charges and cannot come within 50 yards of RiRi.

Poor thang! This mother of two was forced to fend off her yayo snortin’ hubby with a knife and beat the charges after he ended up dead. Donna Cobb’s four-year roller coaster began when she was awoken by her coke-and booze-addled husband and ended with a jury deeming her an innocent battered woman nearly six months ago. Now Cobb has returned to work as a nurse’s aide at Harlem Hospital and continues to live in the same nearby apartment where she stabbed Kevin Cobb to death in November 2006. “I’m taking it one day at a time,” she told the Daily News in a recent interview. “I still think about it a lot, you know. I don’t think I’ll ever fully get over what happened.” Instead of criticizing and scorning her, she says, the neighbors and co-workers who watched her saga unfold have mostly rallied around her – but not everyone. “I have had some negativity from Kevin’s friends, saying ‘Murderer!’ whenever they saw me,” the 42-year-old mother of six said. “They pretty much didn’t know what was going on, and I didn’t feel the need to explain anything to them.” In her 10 years with Kevin Cobb, with whom she had 12-year-old twin girls, he continually abused and threatened her, spitting on her and stealing her money, she said. On the night of the killing, the couple threw a party in their apartment. Kevin, who was unemployed, spent the evening guzzling a bottle of tequila and snorting cocaine . When a fight broke out, the couple kicked everyone out, but Kevin began muttering threats and accusing his wife of cheating, she said. She went into her daughter’s room to sleep but said she was awoken by Kevin punching her in the face, pulling her out of bed by her hair and kicking her. “I tried to fight him off,” she said. “I … ran into the living room. He came right behind me, punched me in my back. I fell. He started stomping me.” Cobb grabbed an elephant statue off the floor – one of many elephant-themed objects that decorate her home – and struck him over the head with it, temporarily stunning him. She ran into the bedroom, but Kevin gave chase, grabbed her and began choking her. “I was feeling for anything,” Cobb said. “I felt the knife, and I just poked him with it.” “I didn’t want him to die,” she added. “My kids have to be without a father, and it’s painful.” Her lawyer, Earl Ward, said he was pleased his client was acquitted but questioned why Cobb – a churchgoing woman and the family’s sole breadwinner – was prosecuted in the first place. “This is a woman who had no record, who goes to church every Sunday, and Fridays, too,” he said. “The idea that she was looking at a life sentence was extremely, extremely troubling. She was a classic battered woman.” Cobb said she and Kevin met in Harlem and had a true connection when they began dating in 1996. “In the beginning, Kevin was really sweet,” she said. “Kevin was very attentive to the children. He was a helpful, really charming, bubbly kind of person.” Things began to change in 1997 after Kevin moved in and started slapping her. Also around that time, Cobb realized Kevin had a drug problem after finding cocaine in his pockets. “He promised me that [he’d get help] a lot,” Cobb said. “I found a program for him to go to. … He wouldn’t show up.” Cobb said she is now focused on her grandchild and moving her family out of the apartment where the murder occurred. She said she still is coming to terms with Kevin’s death. “Throughout all the years of the abuse I experienced … I don’t think that’s something I’ll ever fully recover from,” she said.
