During an interview with Essence magazine, Nia Long, 41, said she praised Jay-Z on his career while at an event. “I saw him at a party and I complimented him on his long run in music,” she said. “But he turned it around and asked me: ‘How does it feel to be every boy from the ‘hood’s fantasy girlfriend for 20 years?’ It made me laugh, I hadn’t really thought about it.” (Sounds more like an infatuation)
