Robin Thicke can cry all he wants on stage about his love for Paula Patton … but it’s not going to change her mind about leaving him … sources tell TMZ. For that … he has to do something else.
Sources connected with the couple tell us … Paula is unimpressed with Robin telling both TMZ and thousands of concertgoers he’s trying to win her back.
Here’s the good news for Robin. Although she TOLD him she wanted a divorce, she hasn’t hired a divorce lawyer yet and she’s open to reconciliation.
BUT … before she takes him back, Robin has to prove his loyalty to her … by his actions. She’s keeping tabs on him at his concerts, watching who he hangs with, which parties he attends — especially the after parties — and what photos surface.
We’re told Paula knows photogs have their cameras trained on Robin, and she views the paparazzi are her private detectives.
TMZ is reporting that Robin Thicke’s marriage fell apart when he dry humped Miley Cyrus on stage before a national audience … humiliating his wife.
Sources connected to the couple tell TMZ … Paula Patton felt “utterly disrespected” when Robin virtually simulated sex with Miley the night of the VMAs. We’re told after the performance Paula got into a blow-out argument with Robin, telling him he insulted her before a huge national TV audience.
What really pissed Paula off is that the performance was a total surprise. Miley improvised the raunchy part without warning, but Robin played along … and that enraged Paula.
Sources say Paula went nuclear when she saw pictures surface of her hubby at one of the after-parties grabbing a woman’s ass … virtually digging inside.
We’re told things never got better after that. They argued constantly and Paula was furious Robin continued to party at clubs with various women … pictured at times getting very cozy.
It reached the point of no return last week — at least for Paula. As we reported … Robin is pulling out all the stops to change her mind, but we’re told she wants out of the marriage.
After nine years of a marriage, celebrity power couple Paula Patton and Robin Thicke are separating.
“We will always love each other and be best friends, however, we have mutually decided to separate at this time,” the singer and the actress told People on Monday in an exclusive statement.
The couple first met in high school when they were both still teenagers, and have been married since 2005.
They welcomed their son Julian Fuego in April 2010.
In an August 2013 interview with theGrio, Patton opened up about having “moments of jealousy” during her marriage with Thicke.
“We’ve dreamt the same dream together, him a singer, and me an actress, since we were kids,” Patton said. “So we know that it’s part of the deal. But it would be a lie to say that we both don’t have our moments of jealousy, and I’m honestly scared of the day that he’s not a little jealous. It wouldn’t be normal for someone to see the person they love kissing someone else.”
There is no word on whether or not Patton and Thicke will move forward with an official divorce.
Thicke was in Paris over the weekend partying with Kanye West and Kim Kardashian. But this pretty young thing captured and Blurred the lines of Thicke, as he seemed to have had too much fun with the unidentified woman.
A lawsuit was filed Thursday in California federal court by Ribin Thicke, Pharrell Williams and Clifford Harris against Marvin Gaye’s family and the owner of some of Gaye’s compositions, Bridgeport Music.
The purpose of the suit is to protect Thicke’s Summer hit Blurred Lines. At issue are complaints about similarities between “Blurred Lines” and at least two songs.
According to the suit, a copy of which was obtained by The Hollywood Reporter, “Plaintiffs, who have the utmost respect for and admiration of Marvin Gaye, Funkadelic and their musical legacies, reluctantly file this action in the face of multiple adverse claims from alleged successors in interest to those artists. Defendants continue to insist that plaintiffs’ massively successful composition, ‘Blurred Lines,’ copies ‘their’ compositions
The suit claims the Gaye family is alleging that “Blurred Lines” and Gaye’s “Got to Give It Up” “feel” or “sound” the same, and that the “Gaye defendants are claiming ownership of an entire genre, as opposed to a specific work.”
As for Funkadelic, there’s said to be claimed similarity between Thicke’s hit and Funakedlic’s “Sexy Ways.”
“But there are no similarities between plaintiffs’ composition and those the claimants allege they own, other than commonplace musical elements,” states the lawsuit. “Plaintiffs created a hit and did it without copying anyone else’s composition.”
A New York TImes critic has noted that “Blurred Lines” is “influenced heavily” by Gaye’s “Got to Give It Up,” but the lawsuit makes the point that “being reminiscent of a ‘sound’ is not copyright infringement. The intent in producing ‘Blurred Lines’ was to evoke an era.”
The Gayes and Bridgeport are said to be threatening litigation should the plaintiffs not pay a monetary settlement. Rather than wait for such a lawsuit to proceed, the plaintiffs are going to court to determine the parties’ respective rights and obligations.
Robin Thicke provides fans with an audible treat in the form of snippets from his forthcoming album, Blurred Lines. The project looks to be a concise listening experience, as it clocks in at just 10 records.
Among these is the title track, “Blurred Lines,” which has moved over 840k copies in two weeks. According to Billboard, Thicke is the first artist to sell more than 40ok downloads in consecutive weeks since Gotye’s “Somebody That I Used to Know” did so for three times in a row in 2012.
Other songs include the crooner’s ode to his wife Paula Patton, “For The Rest Of My Life,” and his Kendrick Lamar-assisted follow-up single “Give It 2 U.”
Blurred Lines releases July 15 internationally and July 30 in the states. Stream the snippets and see the LP’s artwork below.
Robin Thicke’s new single has sold 190,000 copies during its first week’s release in the UK making the tune the fastest selling single of the year.
and rightfully so…
This Blurred Lines collaboration with Pharrell and T.I. is perfect for the upcoming summer BBQ and backyard party jams. I caught Thicke’s new song earlier today on the radio waves and I’ve been playing this infectiously smooth dance jam ever since.
I am a huge fan of Thicke, Pharrell, and T.I., so I think this collaboration is quite a tasty one.
The song will no doubt remind you of Marvin Gaye’s classic beat, Got To Give It Up — Another perfect summer jam.
Have a listen and don’t be afraid to get up and dance a little. C’mon, Everybody Get Up!
