Um, wow.

I noticed actress LisaRaye McCoy and Al Sharpton have been appearing at events together over the past several months, but not even in my imagination would I have penned them a couple! Still, the rumors have hit the internet led by TheYBF.com who says they’ve got a “major” publicist source who confirms that the barely divorced couple is in fact an item. They say  she just wants to get into “society and political” events and he is happy to have the arm candy.

The two have been  spending alot of time together: last night the Revy Rev guest hosted WWE Monday night RAW and LisaRaye was on set, the two partied it up at several events during the recent Congressional Black Caucus weekend in DC, hit the NAACP Image Awards together and LisaRaye even accompanied Al’s to Michael Jackson’s memorial services.

Some reports say that Al is simply LisaRaye’s “spiritual advisor” but today Al addressed the issue on Twitter and said it’s all about education. He Tweeted:

“Others asking whether I am dating Lisaraye since we are working closely on the education issue. I guess they will ask next if Wyclef and I got something. Don’t get distracted in mess. Stay focused on the message. We must save education for for children.“

Thanks Al, I’d rather avoid the mental picture of you two together and just believe you’re buddies (though I do imagine they hit the salon together for press and curl appointments while “discussing education”).
