Tyrese Gibson Opens Up About Divorce, Financial Loss, and Emotional Healing
By Admin
In a candid and heartfelt revelation, actor and musician Tyrese Gibson recently opened up about his personal experiences with marriage, divorce, and the emotional and financial turmoil that followed. The “Fast & Furious” star shared how his marriage, which he viewed as a genuine partnership, turned out to be a stark lesson in love and loss.
Tyrese described his marriage as a business transaction for his ex-wife, who he claims married him only to divorce a few years later, walking away with half of his lifetime savings. He disclosed that all of his ex-wife’s money and properties were never in her name, implying a strategic maneuver to protect her assets while gaining from his.
The actor also recalled a conversation with rapper and actor 50 Cent, who gave him advice that now seems prophetic. “50 Cent warned me,” Tyrese said. “He told me that if you are someone that loves so deep, then this generation is not for you, but I didn’t listen.”
After the divorce, Tyrese faced a tough period, not just financially but emotionally as well. However, he found solace and support from 50 Cent, who stood by him during this difficult time. Tyrese was offered a role in 50 Cent’s hit TV series “POWER,” which marked a turning point in his journey back to stability. “That’s how I bounced back and started hustling again,” Tyrese reflected.
The emotional toll of the divorce was significant, and Tyrese emphasized that men, too, experience deep pain and need to express their emotions. He spoke about the societal pressure on men to “act tough” and hide their vulnerabilities, but he chose a different path. “I had to cry,” he admitted. “Men need to start speaking up too. The society needs to know men cry too and get hurt.”
Tyrese’s story serves as a stark reminder of the complexities of modern relationships and the importance of protecting oneself both emotionally and financially. His message to others is clear: “When loving, use your head.”
In sharing his personal journey, Tyrese hopes to inspire other men to speak out about their feelings and experiences, breaking down the stigma around male vulnerability and emotional expression.

Renowned American musician Jermaine Jackson, elder brother to the late Michael Jackson, has reportedly expressed deep admiration for the Nigerian music duo P-Square, acknowledging their tribute to the King of Pop in their hit song “Personally.” according to a Facebook post by Celebrity Social Influencer, Tunde Ednut.
In a statement that has sparked discussions among fans worldwide, Jermaine Jackson revealed that the Jackson family was highly impressed by P-Square’s performance and even extended a lucrative offer for them to perform at the Grammy Awards, Ednut Stated.
“To thank P-Square for the Tribute Dance they gave Michael Jackson, we offered them $4-million to perform at the Grammys this year but they turned it down,” Jermaine Jackson stated.
Further elaborating on the family’s admiration for the Nigerian duo, he added:
“The entire Jackson family was very impressed with P-Square’s tribute to Michael Jackson in their hit record, ‘Personally.’ It’s not every day that a phenomenal band like P-Square comes along. When I saw the dancing of P-Square, I was really knocked out because they’re so sensational. ‘Personally’ kind of reminded me of the ‘Jackson 5’ when we started music.”
The opportunity for P-Square to perform at the Grammy Awards was meant to be a moment of global recognition, but their split as a group prevented them from accepting the offer.
“We were really excited to see P-Square perform their tribute to Michael Jackson this year at the Grammys. So we reached out to them and offered them $4-million hoping they’d come, but they rejected it because they’re not together any longer. But I wanna thank P-Square for doing such an incredible tribute to my brother Michael Jackson, and I really hope they can be reunited again and hope to meet with them someday,” Jermaine Jackson expressed.
This revelation has reignited conversations about the importance of unity within families, with many fans reflecting on the moral lesson that “there’s nothing like peace and love in any family; it brings forth progress.”
The thought of a collaboration between Michael Jackson and P-Square remains a dream that fans can only imagine. However, Jermaine Jackson’s comments have reinforced the immense global impact of P-Square’s artistry and their connection to the legacy of the King of Pop.
