Rapper and host Cam’ron is opening up about shooting his shot at Nia Long following her split from her fiancé, Ime Udoka. As The Shade Room previously reported, Long and Udoka went their separate ways in December 2022 after almost 13 years together.
At the time, Udoka, who is an NBA coach, made headlines for cheating on Long with a female colleague.

The latest episode of the sports talk show ‘It Is What It Is’ was published via YouTube on Tuesday, December 5. During the episode, hosts Cam’ron and Mase discussed a recent altercation between NBA player Lebron James and coach Udoka.
As their conversation unfolded, Cam’ron revealed that he messaged the actress on Instagram following her split from Udoka.
“I DM’d Nia after the whole s**t happened, man,” Cam’ron told viewers.
The Dipset member handed his phone to the show’s moderator, Treasure “Stat Baby” Wilson. Wilson then read Cam’ron’s attempt to swoon the actress.

“To start off ‘hey stink’ shooting your shot as a grown man is wild lol”

In December of that year, PEOPLE reported that the pair’s split was confirmed by an exclusive source, per The Shade Room.
“The outpouring of love and support from family, friends, and the community during this difficult time means so much to me. I ask that my privacy be respected as I process the recent events. Above all, I am a mother and will continue to focus on my children,” Long exclusively told the outlet.
In January, Long went viral after briefly holding hands with singer Omarion on a red carpet.
