Eve (rapper)

thumb Eve Jihan Cooper (née Jeffers; born November 10, 1978) is an American rapper, singer, and actress. Quotes What happened to the old badass Eve? She’s still there. I’m 29 years old, though. You have to grow up, evolve. But without the foundation of living in Philly, being that girl, I wouldn’t be the woman that I am. Yeah, I heard about that! I think it’s horrible, number one, and number two, a lie. C’mon, I’ve been to some cities on the road and didn’t see one pretty girl. I’m not going to name names. I went back and put a rap on it because I couldn’t take it. [laughs] But I love it. It’s not like Alicia Keys or Mary J. Blige singing, but I’m having fun with it. It was a dumb thing I did. I drank, I drove, it was stupid. People get pulled over for that kind of thing all the time. Of course, my name got people talking, because I’m a celebrity or whatever. I actually did think about putting Swarovski crystals on it, trust me. But I didn’t want to glorify it. In some ways, I’m happy I had that time to reflect. To have something restricting you from being free, that’s something to think about. You call yourself a grown-up, but you have to be responsible. I learned a lot. A company had the name, and they were charging me too much to buy it from them. [laughs] Wow! I am so not that girl, in a politically correct way.
