The buzz surrounding producer Swizz Beatz and his reported infidelity is apparently picking up steam after the alleged other woman singer Christina Elizabeth released a statement in an attempt to clear all doubt if the cheating accusations that have come out against the star producer are true. Currently married to superstar recording artist Alicia Keys, Ms. Elizabeth’s letter claims that their clandestine relationship began in her native Houston back in 2007 while Swizz was married to Mashonda Tifrere and continuing to this day.

The statement, exclusively leaked to Gossip site Bossip, detailed how the pair met at a birthday party held for singer Solange Knowles which Elizabeth alleges that Swizz singled her out among the throng of partygoers and took her out for a bite to eat and invited her to a radio interview he was having the next morning, ending their time together on a somewhat innocent note. “I gave him my phone number and he called me right away and invited me to eat at Katz’ Deli on Montrose Blvd. The next morning, he invited me to accompany him at Radio One (979 The Box) for his interview. Afterwards, we went back to his hotel room but we DID NOT HAVE SEX,” read part of Ms. Elizabeth’s statement. Read More...

As rumors of infidelity swirled about in the online sphere regarding the high profile marriage between Alicia Keys and hubby Swizz Beatz, the pair lightly addressed the furor largely by laughing it off and ignoring the accusations via their respective Twitter accounts – even as the news continue to spread like wildfire throughout the Web.

Gossip site Bossip initially released a report which allegedly featured a series of racy text messages between Swizz Beatz, who celebrates his 33rd birthday today, and Houston singer/songwriter Christina Elizabeth. The messages were exchanged last month although it has been reported that Swizz, born Kasseem Dean, has known the young artist since 2007. Read More...
