Wyclef Jean and Lauryn Hill were a part of the celebrated rap group The Fugees. They were also lovers despite the fact that Jean was married at the time.
Over the years many have speculated as to the real reason the group disbanded. Jean has decided to come clean in a new book he's written titled "Purpose: An Immigrant's Story," which the New York Post got a look at.
In the book Jean writes that Hill led him to believe that he was the father of her first child. As it turns out the real father was Bob Marley’s son, Rohan.
“In that moment something died between us. I was married and Lauryn and I were having an affair, but she led me to believe that the baby was mine, and I couldn’t forgive that.” Jean writes.
Jean blames Hill's lie for the break up of The Fugees after just two albums. The second one being the six times platinum 1996 classic The Score.
"She could not longer be my muse,” Jean wrote. “Our love spell was broken.”
"Purpose: An Immigrant's Story" will be released tomorrow, September 18. You can grab a copy from Amazon.

Looks like it's going to be a bumpy ride this season on American Idol. According to TMZ, Mariah Carey and Nicki Minaj couldn't make it through the first day of taping Sunday without showing their disdain for one another.
"These girls just don't like each other." a source told TMZ.
The two divas spent much of Sunday's taping interrupting each other.
When Nicki started critiquing a contestant, Mariah would interrupt -- not once, but many times. Each time Mariah interrupted, Nicki fought back by loudly talking over Mariah.
The fireworks could make for great tv, or turn out to be a disaster for American Idol. The show is shelling out big bucks for their new judges hoping for an increase in ratings.
When Paula Abdul and Simon Cowell had their famous spats the audience at home seemed to enjoy it. A.I. executives can only hope for similar results this season.
Keith Urban is the third judge on this year's panel.

The Diggy Simmons/J. Cole beef marches onward as Diggy releases his new diss record "Fall Down" (above) aimed at the Roc Nation rapper.. For those of you who may be wondering where all this is coming from, it started when J. Cole released a record titled "Purple Rain" in 2010. In the song Cole makes sublimal disses aimed at Diggy's sister, Vanessa Simmons.
“Good girl huh, father was a preacher/ sent her off to college thought I got her on a leash though / from the outside though, them girls be the squeakiest / you get ‘em inside them girls be the freakiest. -J.Cole "Purple Rain"
J. Cole "Purple Rain"
In April of this year Diggy responded by releasing the J. Cole diss track "What You Say To Me?"
Diggy Simmons "What You Say To Me?"
In June the two rappers met face to face at KMEL’s Summer Jam in San Francisco, California, At that point the beef was reportedly squashed, but Cole reignited it by dissing the 17-year old Simmons a week ago during a freestyle at a concert in Charlotte by making fun of Diggy's record sales on his debut album Unexpected Arrival.
"Picture me hating on a young n*gga with talent/Album flopped, but it's cool, he caked out on his allowance," rapped Cole.

So there you have it. Where this all goes from here is anybody's guess.
Dime Magazine has rolled out it's latest issue and in it they name Los Angeles Lakers all everything player Kobe Bryant as the Player of the Century.
"Our best player is Kobe Bryant, the cover subject of this issue, and we’ve already heard from plenty of people who are speaking up for their own favorite player in that debate. "
- Dime Magazine
Since we're only 12 years into the new century it may seem premature to name it's best player already, but for the sake of argument let's look at some players who should also be considered and vote on who really should be considered the Player of the Century.

They don't call him "Mr. Steal Your Girl" for nothing.
Trey Songz was recently in the UK promoting his new album Chapter V. During his interview with BBC Radio 1xtra host CJ Beatz he was asked to play a game of "would you, could you." Trigga was shown pictures of several well known women (Cassie, Victoria Beckham, Kate Middleton and Kim Kardashian) who are presently married or dating someone and asked if he would smash if given the chance.
Trigga said no to Cassie because he's cool with Diddy. He was lukewarm to the idea of trying to steal Kate from Prince William. He also doubted he could take Victoria away from her husband David Beckham, but would give it a try "for a night of passion."
When it came to Kim Kardashian the R&B singer was certain he would try to take her from Kanye West.
"I mean Kanye and I, we don't have a personal thing," Trey said. "I know Kanye, but we not friends like that. So given the opportunity I would definitely take a shot. That's something I think every man should take a shot at."

J. Cole surprised one of his fans on Twitter @SultanofSwatt, by giving him the privilege of premiering his new song "I'm A Fool."

Cole responded by asking the fan his email, then sent the full track to him.
The odd relationship between Rothschild heiress, Kate Goldsmith and her boyfriend Jay Electronica has taken another strange twist.
Goldsmith, who split from her husband, millionaire financier Ben Goldsmith, in June because of an affair she was having with Electronica, is not pleased at all that he is getting cozy with Burberry model Cara Delevingne according to the Daily Mail.
Goldsmith and Electronica
"Kate and Jay are having fearful rows as he’s getting too close to Cara for her liking," a source tells the Daily News
The 30-year old Goldsmith inherited the Rothschild banking dynasty after her father, Amschel Rothschild, committed suicide at a Paris hotel in 1996. She is also the owner of Roundtable Records and is Electronica's manager.
Goldsmith is still living in her marital home in Kensington, West London, with her three young children – just a stone’s-throw away from her New Orleans-born boyfriend, who moved from Belgravia to be near her.
Cara doesn’t live far away, either – her family home is in neighbouring Chelsea.
Cara Delevingne
Delevingne, who just turned 20 is an international model who has been splitting her time between Sao Paulo, Ibiza and St Tropez over the summer, but reportedly has been seeing the 35-year old Electronica when back in London.
Then there is the question of Jay's long delayed Roc Nation debut album Act II: Patents of Nobility (The Turn). Fans have been waiting what seems like forever for it to be released. Electronica announced earlier this month that it was finished and being mixed. The lead single is supposed to feature Chris Brown.
Is Electronica's hectic private life getting in the way of his promising rap career?

Evander Holyfield is one of the best boxers to ever lace on a pair of gloves, but he's probably got some of the worst accountants in history. How else can you explain the fact that he's earned over $200 million in his boxing career, yet still owes a staggering $546,200.91 in child support for his 18-year old daughter, Emani Holyfield?
The Georgia Dept. of Human Services is after Holyfield to pay the debt. According to TMZ, the boxing great has been held in contempt of court and ordered to immediately fork over $2,950 a month to clear the debt. He coughed up a check for $17K recently, which knocked the amount down to it's current balance of $546,200.91.
In addition to the payment plan, the judge ordered that a percentage of Holyfield's income be used to pay down the debt.
Holyfield, who has 11 children once earned $35 million for a single fight with Mike Tyson.
In 2008 he was shelling out at least 500K a year on child support according to the New York Times.
