‘Send Me Your Location’: Omarion Tempts Fans with Invite In Shirtless Photo

If Omarion asks, they will come.

The 36-year-old singer has created a lifestyle surrounded with peace and serenity, and gave fans a glimpse into just how things can look like when you drown out the negativity of the world. The “Touch” singer took a moment to enjoy himself in a private oasis, rocking red shorts and nothing else, while splashing around in a small pool of water. In his caption, he requested that his fans “Meet me here.”

When Omarion’s baby’s mother Apryl Jones made headlines for hooking up with his former B2K bandmate Dreux “Lil Fizz” Frédéric in 2019, all eyes were on the “Ice Box” singer, who opted to take the highly unbothered route, which sparked a newfound sense of respect for the artist.

While he may usually appear to be the beacon of tranquility, the entertainer admits that he’s only been able to reach this newfound level of zen thanks to “a lot of practice.” “I’m gonna say that I had practice. A lot of practice,” he told Billboard. “To be completely honest with you, in order to really, really understand what you’re doing, you have to know yourself. You have to really know yourself. Over the years with me maturing as an artist and as a person, I really learned to keep things in perspective.”

He also credits being the father of two, Megaa, 6, and A’mei, 4, with helping him reach a new level of maturity. “Of course having children and just keeping that in perspective and knowing that it’s not all about you that really helped me just maintain my position,” he said during an interview with Essence. “You just have to know yourself well enough to know what’s important. And when you do that, things just don’t get in your way. You don’t allow them to.”

Fans agreed that maturity and contentment look goodt on the former boy band member.

“‘Send me your location’😍😂,” one follower wrote, responding to Omarion’s caption.

“I just want peace like Omarion. Who plays in a pond on a Monday?” wondered a second.

“Hold on, let me go tell my boss I need the rest of the week off! 😭😭,” a third fan joked.

“On the way✈️ 😊😍❤️,” said another.

“SAY LESS !!! *books flight to LA* 🔥😍,”

Omarion may not have publicly bashed his former friend and ex-fiance’s relationship, but the lyrics in his recently released sixth studio album, “The Kinection,” could give more insight into his true feelings about the messy situation.

Still independent.

We hope this story was worth your time. For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed Black-owned and independently run. We didn't get here by waiting on ad budgets that were never built to prioritize us. Our readers did that.

Corporate support for Black media has always been thin. Outlets like ours get roughly 1% of the $170 billion spent on U.S. advertising each year, and that margin is shrinking further as advertisers walk back the DEI-linked commitments they made in 2020. That's the backdrop. It's not why we're asking.

The wider picture isn't any steadier. Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under, it's rarely the ones built to center a Black perspective from the ground up that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
