Lumidee Arrested For Smuggling Drugs Into US Lumidee Arrested For Smuggling Drugs Into US
Singer Lumidee, whose real name is Lumiana DeRosa, was arrested at Laguardia International Airport on Friday November 25 after the Drug Enforcement Agency (D.E.A.) was tipped off that she was smuggling drugs into the United States. Police reportedly recovered over $1 million of frozen cocaine and over 7,000 exstacy tablets worth more than $500,000. DeRosa is reportedly involved in a suspected $50 million bicoastal drug ring, that also includes model Gloria Velez, who was also arrested on drug charges in 2004. Velez, was promoting the release of her calendar & DVD when she was charged after police seized 200 pounds of cocaine, $800,000 in cash and four other vehicles, where nearly $1 million cash was found. It was unclear how much money or drugs allegedly were pulled from Velez's bus. Lumidee enjoyed a brief but successful stint in the music industry in 2003. Her single "Never Leave You (Uh Oh, Uh Oh)" topped the Billboard charts for 2 weeks that summer, and a remix featuring rapper Busta Rhymes enjoyed a substantial amount of chart success. The album failed to create any other hits, but the Recording Industry of America certified it gold with sales of over 500,000 copies. There was no comment from any of the parties involved. | |

i don't see where the news source comes from the article.
I also tried to find a more reliable source but I don't find it. Is it weird that other like MTV, BET, and others not mention the story, and I know Lumidee isn't very famous but still they would mentioned the story as soon as when it happen. I am not saying that it didn't happen I hope it isn't true but a lot of other people such as other news outlets are taking as a rumor until the official word comes out. Even some hip-hop message boards believing the story is a sham. Also I thought here real name is Lumidee Cedeno? And they added Gloria Velez in the mix too and the story that sound like 2004 when Gloria was under investigation for drugs. Why would Gloria risked getting in trouble again especially things look promising in her career? Also the article was wrong when it said Gloria was arrested in 2004 and she was never arrested she was just brought in questioning. I heard false stories such as the Serena remarks about black men and also about the death of Christopher Williams and people bought that as true until their camps confirmed it is false. So therefore even on the internet trolls makes up false stories about celebrities tried to get shit started. And that article above looks more like amateurish journalism. [Edited 12/3/05 10:34am] | |

Ok, so it didn't happen but if it did, my question is why is it surprising that MTV and others did not report on this? It's not like Lumidee is that big anymore...she's not even on the radar. I mean, for her to make the news, she'd have to be a terrorist! | |
