<p>&#8220;He want the scoop, she want the tea. I can not talk, we keeping it street! @iamnialong aka Ni-Amore,&#8221; Cam&#8217;Ron captioned an Instagram post on Sunday (December 17) along with several photos of him and Long embracing one another.</p>
<p>Long responded to the endearing message, writing, &#8220;Nice meeting you @mr_camron. Happy Birthday @richpaul&#8221;. The &#8216;Waiting To Exhale&#8217; actress shared a selfie of herself hours before the event, with an accompanying caption that read, &#8220;Outside.&#8221;</p>
<p>The party went down on Saturday (December 16) as Paul celebrated turning 42 with a star-studded guest list. The NBA agent represents some of the biggest names in basketball, including <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/lebron-james-provides-update-bronny-after-teens-health-scare/">LeBron James</a> and <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/draymond-green-suspended-jusuf-nurkic-nba-indefinitely-warriors/">Draymond Green</a>.</p>
<p>Long and Cam&#8217;ron&#8217;s interaction sparked quite the excitement among fans on social media, particularly among those who recall Cam&#8217;Ron previously gushing about his love for the &#8216;Waiting To Exhale&#8217; star, whom he reached out to after splitting with Udoka last year.</p>

<h3 style="text-align: center">Cam&#8217;Rom Previously Hit Nia Long Up In The DMs</h3>
<p>In October 2022, the New Yorker revealed he tried to shoot his shot after hearing that Long was single again.</p>
<p>He shared the lengthy message with his fans, which read, “Hey stink. I was giving you some time to yourself till I reached out.&#8221;</p>
<blockquote><p>“Your perseverance as a strong black woman through this turbulent time has been something to behold. You shouldn’t be taken advantage of and exploited as you did nothing to deserve this. Especially all over these sports networks. You’re bigger and better then [sic] that.&#8221;</p></blockquote>
<p>Cam&#8217;Ron continued, referring to Long as a &#8220;Queen&#8221; while calling himself a &#8220;King,&#8221; and stating that if they were to join forces, they could achieve greatness. He believed that they were destined to be together and that Long could achieve greatness with him if she was willing to give the relationship a chance.</p>
<p>&#8220;Hope to hear from you soon my Mi- amour or should I say &#8216;Ni-amour.&#8217; I leave you with this &#8216;the most difficult thing is the decision to act, the rest is merely technical.&#8217; Until the next time the sun rises and moon.&#8221;</p>
<p>Cam&#8217;Ron <a href="https://dev.theshaderoom.com/camron-flirting-dm-message-nia-long-after-split-ime-udoka-video/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">reflected on the DM</a> on December 5 when he reposted the message on his Instagram page, accompanied with the caption, &#8220;She still hasn&#8217;t open my DM.&#8221;</p>
<p>Roommates, do you think she&#8217;ll give him a chance now that they&#8217;ve officially met?</p>
