Hip-hop legend JOSEPH 'RUN' SIMMONS and his wife JUSTINE are devastated after their baby daughter died shortly after being born on Thursday (23SEP06).
The former RUN DMC rapper's wife underwent a caesarean section operation at a Ridgewood, New Jersey hospital, but the baby was reportedly born with organs outside of its body, according to entertainment website TMZ.com.
The newborn died a short time after the birth.
Simmons, 41, told fans about Justine's pregnancy on a episode of their MTV reality show RUN'S HOUSE earlier this year (06), which also features the couple and their two children DANIEL, 10, and RUSSELL, eight, and the rapper's kids from his first marriage to VALERIE VAUGHN - VANESSA, 22; ANGELA, 18; and JOSEPH, 16.
