In related news, Swizz Beatz' better half was just summoned by Odd Future DJ/singer, Syd the Kid, to "come out of the closet" and admit to being homosexual. In a recent interview with LA Weekly, Syd opened up to discuss her decision to “come out” publicly via the ‘Net, and her long-time wish for other rumored lesbians like Missy Elliott, Queen Latifah and Alicia Keys to share their sexual preference with the public as well.

“There’s Alicia Keys, who’s married to Swizz Beatz – we know that shit ain’t real,” she said. “You got Queen Latifah kissing Common in movies. Missy Elliott saying she don’t wanna hang with bitches. You know she loves her some bitches.” —Christian Mordi
