Bow Wow Opens Up About His Previous Relationships In The Industry
Bow Wow Admits To Losing His Virginity at 16 & Dating Kim Kardashian-West
Rapper-turned-actor Bow Wow recently sat down with Hollywood Unlocked, and things got a little uncensored with the Lottery Ticket actor, as he unlocked some secrets and brought some answers to our wandering questions. The 30-year-old opened up about his controversial breakup with ex-fiancée Erica Mena, teenage relationship with Ciara, old flings with Kim Kardashian-West and Karrine Steffans, and even losing his virginity to model Esther Baxter at the age of sixteen.
Bow Wow and Mena got engaged after only six months of dating, back in 2014, and a little over a year later, the two called it quits, publicly blasting their breakup business all over social media. The news spread like wildfire, with thousands of opinions formed and even an Instagram war sparking between the two.
“In any relationship, you’re gonna have your differences. You’re gonna argue; you’re gonna fight. You’re gonna have that. That’s normal to have,” He expressed when asked about how the two really ended. “I think, with me, I don’t really give a f*ck about what people say about me. You know what I’m saying? That’s just how I’ve always been.”
Though Bow Wow did kind of skip around the basis of that question, he didn’t hold back when hosts Jason Lee and Melyssa Ford asked if he was bothered by Mena’s previous comments about the size of his ‘man package’.
“No, because that’s what every scorned woman says when they break up. ‘Oh, he gay!’ or ‘His d*** little!'” He says.
He then finished off his statement by saying that he’s never had any complaints about his sexual performance elsewhere, and he even went into detail about just how freaky things can get in the bedroom when it comes to a night with Bow Wow. However, we’ll let you hear what he said for yourself on that tip.
Later in the conversation, his relationships with Ciara and Karrine Steffans were mentioned. Although he only spoke briefly on Ciara, he did unveil a cool fact about his relations with Steffans.
When asked about the former video vixen, he actually revealed that Steffans was the first to teach him how to do laundry, as he admits that, before he met her, that was something that he had never had to do for himself.
However, close to the end of the interview, we learned that the Columbus, Ohio-born entertainer didn’t lose his virginity until he was sixteen years old.
“I was one of them types where [I thought] it was gonna be my luck that I f*ck a girl my first time and I get her pregnant. That’s why I stayed away for a little bit,” he admits. “I’m protecting my bag! At the time, I was on tour, so it was just so much shit going on.”
A few years later is when he met Kim Kardashian-West–who was then, of course, just Kardashian working for Paris Hilton, and he began dating her on the low. He says that he actually met her through Hilton, whom he was also cool with. The two hit it off and, eventually, sparked a romance.
“This was right before Reggie Bush. The reason why nobody knew is because of how I move. I can get low, and nobody will know sh*t. I will admit this, we kicked it hard,” Bow Wow then goes on to elaborate. “At the time, I was like, ‘I’m just so nervous because I never really dated outside of my race before. Like, this is different for a n*gga. She comes with a lot; I don’t know how my fans are gonna look at this. I don’t got time.’ So, because of that, I kept that sh*t low, and nobody really knew.”
