As revealed in my original ‘blind item’ post?last November:

The rapper/actor/entrepreNegro has been trying to clean up his image over the past few years and while his fiance is understandably distraught about the news, she is sticking by her man?s side and keeping up appearances.

In the meantime, the streets of Atlanta are talking about how the rapper/actor/entrepreNegro?s soon to be ?baby mama? has said she wants to be paid for her silence? and we ain?t talkin? bout no ?Chicken & Beer?!

Well, it’s recently been revealed that Luda begged the courts to put Fuller under a gag order to protect his image (and his fiance), after Fuller threatened to go to the media if he didn’t buy her a new car!

Details below…

According to TMZ, Ludacris asked the judge in his paternity case to issue a gag order on Tamika Fuller, his new baby mama after she gave him?im gave him a crass ultimatum — ‘give me a car, or I’m goin’ public!’

In legal documents filed September 2013, Ludacris’ request for the gag order stated that he needed it because he’s ‘a major celebrity of great notoriety’.

Luda’s attorney’s urged the judge to consider the gag order stating that it was essential because Tamika had already tried to extort him for her silence!

Fuller had reportedly demanded that Bridges give her a car AND $7,500 for her lawyer’s retainer … OR ELSE she’d put him on blast that he fathered her kid while he was still in a relationship with longtime girlfriend/fiance’ Eudoxie Agnan aka ‘Fab’.

“18 years, 18 years… She got one of your kids, got you for 18 years “

Luda’s attorneys argued that judges often allow public figures to keep their sexual indiscretions under wraps but the?judge in his case wasn’t buyin’ what Luda was sellin’, and subsequently rejected his request.

No word on whether Tamika got her car… but we already know she didn’t keep quiet about her famous baby daddy’s identity.

What do you think of Luda’s ‘baby mama drama’?
