Common has been in the news, as of late, because of his recent activity. In his return to the big screen, Common finds himself playing opposite of Queen Latifah in Just Wright. However, in real life, he finds himself in a relationship with Serena Williams. Both Williams and Latifah are notable stars and Common’s association with both was bound to cause a stir.
Recently, Common discussed his relationship with Serena Williams. After two years of rumors, last year, the two officially became an item. When asked about how he landed a woman with a profile such as hers, Common played it off. The question was if he used pick-up lines. Common denied using any special tricks to land Serena; in fact he denied ever using pick-up lines.
Being a slim man, there is often the question of if he would date a bigger woman. In his upcoming film, Just Wright, Common does end up in a relationship with a bigger woman. When he was asked about dating a woman the size of Queen Latifah, Common said that he would have no problem being with a woman her size. Common said that weight is not a requirement.
Common said that in order for him to love a woman, she first has to love herself and then love him. In return, he would love her and the size is regardless. Right now, it appears that he is into the athletic type and it is obvious that Serena Williams loves herself.
Time Magazine yesterday published their list of the most influential people in the world, and along with it published their new “Social Influence Index,” which measures appeal by analyzing Facebook and Twitter. The algorithm adds up followers on both Facebook Fan Pages and Twitter accounts and applies a basic formula to even the influence of each network. Leading the pack was President Barack Obama, followed by Lady Gaga, followed by Ashton Kutcher. Ashton Kutcher? This can’t be right.
