Russell's New Babe

Russell SimmonsTMZ caught Def Jam founder Russell Simmons out last night in New York City, rolling up with a beautiful young blonde in his car.  It's unclear what the relationship is, but Russell did open the door for her.

It was confirmed back in March that Simmons was splitting with his wife Kimora Lee, and since then the hip-hop mogul had been rumored to be dating rap video model Denise Vasi.  The unknown woman in our video looks about the same age as Vasi, who is in her early twenties, and equally beautiful.

2. Looking at the picture this white woman does not look like to much of nothing, but you know the saying when they make it they wish for something lite or white.

4. Did that article say that the white chick was "equally as beautiful" as Kimora? Are they on crack? Kimora is a glamorous, exotic, biracial beauty and that chick is just plain blonde. If blond makes you beautiful, then I guess Ms. Piggy is beautiful too.

6. Why are people (TMZ) speculating that is woman is Denise Vasi? This woman is WHITE...Denise Vasi is black (or bi-racial) and they look NOTHING alike!

8. This girl is Temla Thormattosidir. She is a model who was worked for Godiva and others. She is a prominent nightlife person who hangs out with the owners of nightclubs, such as Riche Akiva and Noah Tepperberg. She probably met Russell through Richie, since her sister Raquel dated Richie for a while and Richie and Russell are good friends. I don't know why people are saying she is homely, because she is very beautiful. People on here are probably used to a more manufactured, processed type of beauty like Jessica Simpson--whereas temla has a much prettier, natural look. Also, her and Russell are definitely not dating--he just enjoys surrounding himself with beautiful women. It has even been rumored that Russell is gay, however I do not think this.

9. Russell is a man that has been beyond touchable when it comes to integrity for decades. If he has seperated from his spouse and begun dating, let him. What makes him different from any other seperated couple, cameras? Kimora is a woman with a voice and a forum and if she has a problem with her 'baby daddy' and his dating status Im sure we would have had a sound bite by now!!!!

10. So what idf black men like white women? Being a biracial woman doesnt mean you are more beautiful that a white woman or a black woman. I get so sick of black women hating on white women or light skinned black women. Thats so catty. If you cant find a black man who wants you, there are plenty of white men we would love to share with you....

11. Well Russell is an adult, and he can date who he wants to date. Black, white, yellow, purple. He is a man, and that is what they do. When they get sick of their mates, they trade them in. White men: Once you go black, you'll never go back. (Ms. Lucy). Who's the hater now?

13. Lucy girl, you have serious issues. You started the little racial bull crap in the first place. That's why you do have a chance with a black man, they love stupid chicks. I was nice and didn't call you what you really are witch.
