Monica’s Sweetest Mommy Moments with Her Children

When it comes to celebrity moms, singer Monica is one who truly inspires. She is a mother to two boys, Rodney a.k.a. Rocko and Romelo, from her previous relationship with rapper Rocko and one daughter, Laiyah, with her husband Shannon Brown. She always puts her kids first and credits them for her happiness, and we adore her for that. Here’s a look at Monica’s cutest moments with her three children on Instagram.

Star Gazing: Brandy and Monica at Pre-Grammy Event

For some of us, Brandy and Monica's "The Boy Is Mine" will go down in history as our favorite contemporary R&B collaboration of all time. We were happy to see the two (now all grown up) recording artists laughing it up with each other at a pre-Grammy event honoring industry icon David Geffen this weekend. Both women have maintained their signature styles and are making their way back to the top.
