October 10 - 16: Game Surprised Girlfriend At Work With
Wedding Proposal
Jay-Z, T.I., Ice Cube, Snoop Dogg and numerous other tough guy rappers are married, but they kept
their proposals and wedding ceremonies private.
West Coast gangsta rapper Game debunked the player's code Wednesday when he not only proposed
to Tiffany Cambridge, his girlfriend of seven years and mother of his two youngest children, but he
did so in front of a room full of media cameras.
Game, who has instigated feuds with 50 Cent and Jay-Z, arranged to surprise his school teacher
girlfriend at her job, Frank D. Parent Elementary School in Inglewood, California.
The principal staged an emergency staff meeting after school. When Cambridge walked in she was
greeted by the rapper, their two children, their bishop, co-workers, and media.
According to MTV, the Game got down on one knee and said, "I just wanted to ask you: Would you
marry me?"
Cambridge reportedly immediately replied, "Oh, yes, Jayceon." Jayceon is Game's real name.
Cambridge said she was caught off-guard. "I'm just, like, in shock right now, so excuse my
expression. I am the deer-in-a-headlight type of person."
Game impressed the school's staff. "He came off as a young man that was in love with his girlfriend
and really wanted to surprise her," the school's office manager told Yahoo! Music.
Game said he was ready to take their relationship to the next level.![]()
"As a man, this is that day where you throw your player card away and you kinda gotta step up and
be a family man, and she deserves it," Game told MTV News. "It's been a long run, and we've been
together at least seven years. We've been off, we've been on, we've been arguing, we fought. We
had good times and bad times, and I think that. At the end of the day, as a man, this is something
that I owed to her and I owed to my family, so it was time."
A spokesperson for Game said the rapper's plans were spontaneous, but he knew this day was
coming.
"I woke up today with a different headspace," Game told MTV Wednesday, "and I just started
planning this at 10 a.m. and we pulled it off by 2. Four hours to pull all these media outlets, get the
school in line, the principal, the bishop from the church to come down. The sun came out, obviously
[I'm] sweating here, crazy."
Game's latest recording, "The R.E.D. Album," has more positive songs about women, namely, "Hello,"
"Good Girls Go Bad" and "California Dream." In his book, "The Making Of Game's The R.E.D. Album,"
the Compton-bred artist boasted about being a family man, making songs about the birth of his kids
and recording the deliveries.

Game's news this week, definitely outshined that of the BET Hip Hop Awards. Though LL Cool J
received the I Am Hip Hop award and the likes of Young Jeezy and T.I. performed, several of the
night's big winners -- Kanye West, Jay-Z, Chris Brown, Lil Wayne, and Nicki Minaj -- were not in
attendance.
