Keri Hilson Talks About Breakup With Serge Ibaka

Keri Hilson has finally opened up about her sad split with NBA baller Serge Ibaka with Rolling Out Magazine. The singer says she thought she had found someone who was an “exception” but was disappointed to find out he wasn’t the one…

I think I am an exception to the rule when people think of R&B “divas.” I thought I found someone who’s also an exception. It wasn’t “enthralling” for me to date an athlete. It was on my list of “not to dos” — no rappers, no actors and no ball players. I broke my rule because I thought I found someone different … It wasn’t an attraction to the status and the money.

Keri later describes what she wants in a significant other after revealing breakup with Serge:

NEW YORK CITY, NY – Around this time last year, Jidenna was definitely burning through the hood “like whoa,” riding high on the tailor-made suit coattails of his eventual platinum record “Classic Man.” It had been a while since Hip Hop had bore witness to an artist able to finesse both sides of black empowerment and airtight pop melodies and the part-time Cotton Clubber, full-time Nigerian/edutaining lyricist indelibly made his mark on the game with just one single (and that was before Kendrick “Cornrow Kenny” Lamar’s involvement on the remix).

Couple that in with the fantastically relevant “Long Live the Chief,” and an outward appearance that was directly influencing pop culture, Jidenna, now 31-years-young, was poised to make a splash with his debut album, also titled Long Live the Chief.
