Robin Givens’ affair with Brad Pitt is not new news, as former husband of the star, Mike Tyson, dished about it earlier this year in an interview with Conan O’Brien.
Robin Givens and Mike Tyson were a high-flying star couple in the 80s, and Brad Pitt was still and up-and-comer — yet to even have his breakthrough role in Thelma And Louise, which incidentally, was as a wicked playboy.
But if there is anyone you wouldn’t have wanted catching you in bed with their wife back then, it was Mike Tyson, and his tumultuous relationship with actress Givens was well-documented even in the pre-TMZ era.
Earlier this year, Tyson told O’Brien that the Robin Givens and Brad Pitt affair had interfered with his ability to fight, and he explained candidly:
“As I go to my car she drives up … with the handsome Brad Pitt. The first thought I had was, ‘Aw man I ain’t getting’ no [expletive] tonight!’ I went from a hard stallion to a wet noodle and it just totally overwhelmed me.”
(O’Brien did not ask if Pitt then kidnapped Tyson’s tiger.)
The heavyweight champ again detailed his humiliation upon discovering Robin Givens’ infidelity during an In Depth With Graham Bensinger chat about the time during which the pair were separating.
Tyson said that he and the star of Head Of The Class were breaking up, but the sucker punch of finding Givens in bed with the pretty boy hit him hard:
“I was doing a divorce but I — we — every day, before I would go to my lawyer’s office to say she’s a pig and stealing, I would go to…her house to have sex with her. This particular day, someone beat me to the punch. And I guess Brad got there earlier than I did.”
“I was mad as hell. I was going to … you should have saw his face when he saw me.”
But his relationship with Robin Givens is ancient history, and now Tyson is happily wed to third wife Lakiha Spencer.
"star" of Head of the Class is a big enough joke.
WOOf! What rock did this critter come out from under?
strange
What was the point of this article anyway? Affairs with married people last century is a waste of time. Who cares now?
Ah, so now we see why it was ok to beat the woman and bite off Holyfield's ear. Here I always thought he was just a slimey puke. He's actually just a good ole' guy, right… Who cares about Mike Tyson's tale?
Why bringing this up? FOR GLORIFICATION OR TO BE GLORIFIED.
I don't think Brad thought that relationship through.
i care about mikes story and so do you you read it dummy its so stupid when people read a headline, click the link, read the story, then post a comment, who cares??? you do dummy, you do.
She cheated on Mike with a white dude , that's awesome!
Doesn't every wife cheat with Brad Pitt?
So did Mike finally realize he was divorced?
So did Mike finally realize he was divorced?
Well they all dream of doing so….
OMG! He's abut to eat that bird!
bad boy and bad girl..but its ok to be a bad stink…the female hole rules….lol.
Hmm, I heard BP's movie was not doing well..so let's stir the pot of DRAMA even if it's prehistoric news. Sad.
Robin and her mom are gold diggers that's what they do! Tyson was just a paycheck she seen Tyson was worth $420 million! Robin never loved Tyson she stayed long enough to get paid!
Class Clown?
So Brad and Angelina Jolie are made for eachother…..
I bet Brad Pitt saw his life flash before his eyes. I wouldn't want to have Mike Tyson mad at me.
You got that right!
Brad is Brave!
Brad Pitt must have crapped his pants when he came across him. Better yet, Brad probably covered his ears with his hands. LOL!
I HOPE she is still as beautiful, I KNOW she is still a whore.
I would have to say after sleeping with that neanderthal Brad Pitt would be a welcome sight! If I was a woman…lol.
How many times did Mike cheat on her, now that's a story.
That's Hollywood for you, where everyone sleeps with anyone. One big happy family.
I'll never know what women see in Brad Pitt…he always looks dirty and unkempt to me, gross.
Who writes this stuff? Second article I've seen on Yahoo today that was badly written.
robin givens is nothing but a high priced no life whore..all she was after was the money..cheap bitch.
Mz. Givens was bad bad news for Tyson, and I'm glad he got away from her when he did. I just wish it had been sooner, for his sake. What a user.
Tyson was a monster back then, could you imagine the ass whoppin he could have given Pitt, only reason he didn't is coming from the hood and all you Know if Beat up a white boy yo definitely going to jail.
My wife gets a pass if its Bad Pitt.
Well as they say, "Once you go white, you'll finally get it right".
At first, Mike was heard to say, "Dat's Wooodicrus".
She WAS one of the stars of head of the class. How come that's a joke?
That's not a surprise. During the 80's she was always an OREO type of broad anyway.
I always thought Robin Givens, wed Mike Tyson, for money, and the spotlight. She saw a trouble soul, basically uneducated, and went for it. In my opinion, she humiliated him during that famous TV interview. (I believe it was Barb Walters) I have less respect for her, than I do Mike Tyson.
Back then? If you were a celebrity u could get away with quite a few things compared to now. Doesn't matter. That was in the heat of passion crime. He could've got away with it.
Did she take her wig off when she was with Brad Pitt and reveal her bald head. What do black women do with their wigs when they go to bed? Do the men they are involved with wonder where their hair is during sex? I am just asking.
I would cheat with Brad Pitt.
I believe that Robin was studying Medicine at Harvard before she became an actress.
But his relationship with Robin Givens is ancient history, and now Tyson is happily wed to third wife Lakiha Spencer.
Then why the hell did you write an article about it? 20-30 year old news, who cares!
I just lost a little respect for Brad Pitt..For doing that skank.
Pitt has to be the brazenest dude in Hollywood to be tapping a heavyweight boxing champ's poon.
And Hugh Jackman, just saying…
I'm not so sure he is over her as he still talking about it….
he cute..but I'm sure he is like any other man when it comes to everyday life, prolly spits in the toilet, skidmarked drawers, burps at the table and farts like a cannon in bed..ya know, a normal guy.
I'd like to see Mike and Brad go at it!
Why the HELL should we care what the uber-arrogant, uber-vicious Mike Tyson thinks about his uber-glamorous, uber-charming then-wife Robin Givens's relationship with Brad Pitt or, for that matter, about anything he thinks concerning her? This man-animal terrorized and tortured poor Robin all during their marriage and it's abundantly clear, or should be, that his latest yammer regarding her is no more than an attempt to vindicate himself in our eyes and make Robin out to be the villainess. Why, why, why isn't this evil thug behind bars where he belongs instead of on the talk-show circuit on a smear campaign against Robin (and taking crude racial digs at her in a one-man show)?
Not ever black person have short hair. Even some of us myself included who wears wig or weave have long hair underneath but just do not like to go natural.
I wear wigs and weave and my hair is four inches pass my shoulders.
bitch you sound stupid and need to have several seats. dolly parton madonna cher all them hoes wear weaves and weaves. have several seats with yo jealous ass. they all love the brown sugar
Eilene Kalbfeld you need to watch troy and fight club and you will see why hehe iis the shit.
@Charis Ivanye Bruner…………….You, obviously you , you moron your here posting!
ur moms a critter, shirt tying street walking punk.
She is not and was not ever that hot anyway, other that a pair of cheekbones.
Brad would look funny with half an ear missing. Lol
Way 2 GO Brad: Mike didn't know how 2 Handle a Lady Like Robin:
Apparently your Noodle is BIGGER than His: GO R IT SON:
Hope the retard ain't mad at me for sleeping with her?
Good for you Robin, I would have done the same had I been in your shoes.
Brad Pitt was just too gorgeous to resist back then…..hell even now!
C'mon he may look that way now but back in the day especially when he first appeared on screen in that movie Thelma and Louise…..the boy was the bees knees !!
You do know there was a scandal involving that claim she apparently was telling a little lie there and she got caught out. Its a shame because she was or rather is a smart woman.
He has a one man show that he's trying to do on Broadway and tour.
What a super cool husband !
Her name should be Robin Takens. She made a real pidgeon out of Tyson. She probably split the take with Don King. How's that for brothers and sisters sticking together…SUCKERS!
she has always been a gold digger!
Robin Givens is nothing but an alleycat with no human grace!
A ho is always a ho….
Obviously the media must not have anything better to right about, like for instance the wars that are going on and the thousands of babies aborted each day. Brad Pitt, give me a break! What in the hell is so special about this dude?
eeeeuhhhhhhh! yuck , Brad's a darkie lover… yuck not even her.
Who gives a damn about Robin Givins? She has always , and continue to be a gold digger the rest of her life. Someone will bust her in the eye before it's over with.
I would love to be with her she is so beautiful I love her.
Dan Laxuma: does your mom by any chance have pics of herself and Michael Jackson any where in ur house? Boy! U look like Michael (the real DNA), not the "white" dude he became.
Good for her! Tyson was an abusive jerk and he deserved everything he got.
I have to give Brad his due–he had a LOT of guts!
Mike Tyson didn't touch Brad but he nearly beat Robin Givens to death. Everyone was worried about Brad, what about Robin? We didn't see much of her after that, he probably gave her brain damage w/one punch.
Yep he also dated Thandi Newton. If thats you in the PIC the work YUK shouldn't ever come out of your mouth regarding a person's looks.
Sindy Finn and you wished you could get down on your knees
@ Sindy Finn PREACH!! AND he still looks good to this day.
You're the most amazing husband eeeever!!!!
Why did it take all these years for Tyson to talk about this? Pitt may have looked scared, but Tyson did not attack him. My guess is that outside the boxing ring he only beat on women. Didn't hit someone who would hit back.Plus he would have gone to jail.
She got paid all right-with fists to her face. What a "man" Tyson was.
Women are cheating even more now!
My latest book, "I Steal Wives: A serial adulterer reveals the REAL reasons more and more 'happily married' women are cheating" is a powerful look at this EXPLOSIVE topic of female infidelity. Research shows its not only on the rise, but rivals or EXCEEDS that of male cheating. And the REAL reasons aren't the typical blather you hear on talk-TV or read in the SECOND-HAND information of some psychologist's self-help book.
This book is the FIRST BOOK EVER WRITTEN on female infidelity from the FIRST-HAND experience of a serial adulterer, who cheated with the wives/girlfriends of over 25 married men (and a few women), and who also happens to be a therapist (never cheated with clients) and has an eye for patterns in behavior, but more importantly, the core beliefs that drive behavior! The deep and powerful insights of this book will startle women and scare the holy hell out of men!
"I Steal Wives" is a salacious, self-deprecating, at times funny, and penetratingly insightful look into what is now the very cutting-edge of relationships. It's the relationship version of "How to Secure Your House, as told by a professional burglar!" It will forever change how you do relationships and view life!
Check it out now at Amazon and Barnes and Noble! It's VERY POPULAR! People are loving it and it's selling FAST!
Ooooh someone sounds a little JADED that Brad WASN'T "chopping THEM down." Hmmm??
ANGRY, JEALOUS WHITE WOMAN "STRIKES AGAIN." These OVERWEIGHT, TRAILER PARK BROAD in here mad cause Brad was with Robin and NOT THEM!! Well, maybe if Brad had a "thing" for chicks that look like "Honey Boo Boo" you would have a SHOT…until them!! STFU!!
