Ne-Yo Confirms He's Going to Be a Daddy.... Again.

Ne-Yo and girlfriend Monyetta Shaw are expecting their first child together.

EBONY sat down with the singer-songwriter at a super exclusive photoshoot planned to help promote his upcoming album Libra Scale. Ne-Yo, who is preparing to attend the ASCAP Awards Friday night in Beverly Hills, talked about how he had traveled home to Atlanta to get some news about the baby.

Surprise! He had to come home so he could make the first ultrasound visit with his girlfriend. There’s no word on the sex of the baby because the tiny tot curled up in a ball, leading Ne-Yo to joke that his future progeny is “stubborn.” But, he added, “They didn’t get that one from me.”

“I am 30 and I do have my first child on the way, and I’m very, very, very excited about that,” he tells EBONY. “It’s a New Year’s baby and I’m just in a really good place right now.”

He took care of his ex-girlfriend's son like his own, until she started demanding outrages amounts of child support and a paternity test proved someone else was the father.  Congrats Ne-Yo!
