In part 2 of her interview with Kathleen Cross for Skin Deep actress, Lauren London, opened up about her struggle of being bi-racial & growing up with a African American mother and Jewish father. She also talked about her dream date, & the deal breaker when it comes to a relationship.

Check out a few excerpts from the interview below:

On being bi-racial:

Whatever your ethnicity is, in this life you are going to be on a journey to discover who you are and how you feel about yourself. I do remember being teased by my cousins on my mom’s side for not being black enough, and then I’d spend the summer with my dad and be sent to all white summer camps where I was “that black girl.” I struggled for about a minute with that, then I figured it out for myself. What it has done for me is I don’t care what people think about my identity. If someone thinks I’m not black enough that’s their issue. I’m okay with who I am and it is what is. I’m a Black woman like my mother, and I love who my father is, and I love both sides of me. Nobody makes a big deaI about it anymore because I won’t take that anymore

On meeting the guy of her dreams:

I haven’t met him. I’ll tell you what… He’s not a menace to me or society.

On three qualities she refuse to deal with in a relationship:

Someone who doesn’t believe in God. A liar. And, someone who’s been madly in love more than ten times.

In a recent interview with Kathleen Cross for Skin Deep, actress Lauren London opened up about her past relationship with rapper Lil Wayne.

She dished the dirt how they met & the on again off again relationship over the years, their brief engagement as well as her current relationship with Wayne’s other baby mothers.

Check out a few excerpt from the interview below:

What is the biggest misperception people have of you? What misperception bothers you most?

That my son is the result of some kind of one night stand or groupie encounter with his father. I struggle with deciding when to answer or ignore the constant speculation about my private life, because I feel like that doesn’t belong to anybody but me.

Do you want to go on to the next question, or clear up the speculation now?

I met Dwayne when I was 15 years old. I’ve known him a very long time, and we were in a relationship that didn’t make it. We tried more than once to revive it, and we were engaged briefly years ago, but we eventually parted ways. People see the “Lil Wayne” persona and think they know who he really is. My son’s father is an intelligent, loving and lovable person who will always be a dear friend. That is all.

If you don’t mind another personal question, there is a lot of talk about how well the mothers of his children get along. What’s the real deal?

We are all good-hearted women who love our children and we want them to know each other. Real friendships have grown from that foundation and the result has been more love, less drama and less trauma for our kids.

Lauren London recently sat down with Access Hollywood and discussed motherhood, her son Cameron, her child’s father Lil Wayne and the controversy surrounding her pregnancy.

Check out a few excerpts from her interview below:

On Motherhood:

Mother hood has changed me alot. I’ve definitely calmed down. I had a bad temper in the past and I don’t as much anymore. My son definitely puts things into perspective. Things I thought were really important aren’t. I don’t look at the surface as much anymore. A lot of things I was doing before were really selfish and now it’s not about me It’s about him.

On Lil Wayne:

I’m blessed that I am not parenting alone. I have help and I get to do what I love. Wayne is a great dad. He’s a great father. I have no complaints!

On Twitter & The Hurtful Things People Were Saying

On tweeting & the hurtful things people had to say during her pregnancy:

“I don’t feel pressured to tweet or share my business because I feel like my personal life is my personal life. They talked about me so bad during my pregnancy at this point, what can they say?? Go ahead!!!!

It was tough, I’m not going to lie. When a woman is pregnant to me it’s her most beautiful and as pure as she can be and I felt like they took everything away from me. At some point it did hurt my feelings and I had to let it go because it was distracting me from what God had me doing. Point. Blank. Period. I love my baby!

After denying the pregnancy rumors actress Laura London has finally decided to let the world know that she is infact expecting a baby. Lauren made her 1st pregnancy appearance this past weekend at Diddy’s white party in the Hamptons. Although she confirmed her pregnancy she still hasn’t confirmed the baby daddy which we already know is rapper Lil Wayne who is also expecting a baby with R&B singer Nieva. And lets not forget about the baby he had a couple months ago with the girl from Cinncinatti, OH and how can we forget the #1 baby mama in ATL miss Toya who currently has a reality show with TI’s baby mama Tiny on BET. Whew thats a whole lot of baby mama’s going around I can’t take it lol.

So I was over at Sandra Rose spot this weekend and was listening to the audio from this Sergeant Willie Pete guy.  And I was disturbed by what he had to say about Lauren London and women in general.  First off let me say that a woman has the right to be attracted to whatever type of man she chooses to be attracted to.  If she like a thug then so be it, that’s her choice.  I talk about my thick neck big back thugs all the time, and I’ll be dammed if somebody call me a bitch or calls me ignorant because of the type of men I choose to like. 

This guy went so hard on Actress Lauren London because of the comment she made in an interview with King Magazine.  Before I go into my rant check out what Lauren’s said so we’ll all be on the same page.

KING: So you want a man who’s both honest and thug?

My thing is why are you so upset, you say you’re tired of a woman for the type of man she chooses, that’s stupid and what does that have to do with you.  The real question is, are you tired because she’s not choosing you?   Do you like Lauren London or something?  Ok so what some women like thugs, hell I happen to agree with Lauren, Menance II Society was my shit too, I loved Cain back in the day.  I don’t know about O Dog he was a little too crazy for my taste.  But I was crushing on Cain real hard back in the Menance II Society days. 

I’ve had this conversation with my friends time and time again about the men I choose to date.  I date a man who’s street, but also respects me that’s number one.  I don’t care if you’re a thug or whatever you have to respect me.  I have zero tolerance for disrespect.  Second I like a man who knows how to handle his business and take care of home. You have to be able to hold your own and not depend on anyone for anything.  Somebody who has swagger and let me say swagger is something you can not create, you either got it or you don’t.   And somebody who loves God and Loves there mother.    

I’ve dated street guys and all street guys aren’t what everybody portrays them to be.  I actually prefer to day a street guy.  I don’t get into what my man does in the streets.  That’s not my place just as long as he doesn’t bring it home.  So does this make me an ignorant black woman because of what I like and what I choose to date? NO!!!!!!  I think it makes a man ignorant to call a woman a BITCH that’s ignorant.  At the end of the day a woman can like who she’s like, we learn from our mistakes as we get older.  But don’t judge nobody or call somebody out there name because of who they like.  Respect there decision and keep it moving because at the end of the day it has nothing to do with you.
