For glory, the walls of his airy Atlanta home are lined with gold and platinum records--the hits he's written and produced for such performers as Mariah Carey, TLC and Usher.

The relationship between the singer and the New York Yankee shortstop was under a particularly hot spotlight, followed by celebrity and sports reporters alike. "It's bad enough when just one public person is involved," she said to IN STYLE, whose photo spread of her closet revealed an Imeldaesque collection of Manolo Blahnik shoes. "But with two, it's really hard to have something to yourself." That must mean rumors that...
