TAMIA l PRESS RELEASE

Detroit Free Press l Spring 1999
In a interview with baketball player Grant Hill, heres what he had to say about how him and Tamia met.

Why did you decide to get married? (He's engaged to the singer Tamia, who's from Windsor).

Um . . . (laughs) . . . you mean why did I get engaged? I'm not married yet (laughs). No . . . I just . . . found somebody that I'm real compatible with. When we both started seeing each other that first two or three months, I kind of knew that this was the one. I've dated a few people but never really had that chemistry. But when I first met my fiancee it was like we'd known each other for a long time. So I'm ready to settle down. It's a sign of maturity.

You're still young to be married, by today's standards.

It's funny, 'cause I was always of the mind that I'm gonna wait till I'm done playing. . . . But I guess when you fall, you fall hard.

How did you meet her?

Anita Baker kind of hooked it up. Kind of a blind date. But we kind of knew who each other was, so it wasn't that blind of a date.
