Robin Thicke Naming New Album 'Paula'
Robin Thicke may be naming his next album after his estranged wife Paula Patton.
Thicke, the 37-year-old singer, and Patton, the 38-year-old actress announced their split earlier this year after eight years of marriage and more than 20 years together. The singer is ready to release his seventh studio album next month, and sources from Rap-Up say that the body of work will be named Paula.
After premiering the song "Get Her Back" at the Billboard awards last month, Rap-Up is reporting that they have sources claiming that the new album Paula will be released July 1.

Patton spoke up about her feelings for Thicke in the June 2014 issues of Vanity Fair magazine. Despite media reports, Patton insists she will always love Thicke, who is the father of her 3-year-old son Julian Fuego.
"We've known each other since we were teenagers," she revealed to Vanity Fair. "All I can tell you is there's a deep love there- always was, and always will be."
The report comes after numerous blog reports suggested that an affair with a masseuse was the cause for the separation, leading Thicke's lawyer to fire back at the claims.
"On behalf of Mr. Thicke, as well as [the alleged masseuse], we categorically deny every assertion of fact posited in your email [asking for comment] and are certain there can be no reliable, trustworthy source of any such story, given its gross deviation from the truth," King told the blog. "Any purported source of such a story is lying."
The lawyer took things one step further and insinuated that any publications spreading false stories about Thicke and Patton's marriage could be in legal trouble.
"Publication of this blatantly false story absent a failure to fully investigate the truth combined with reliance on what has to be a flimsy source, will support a finding that the story is published in wanton and reckless disregard of the truth, leading to a finding of malice and the imposition of actual and punitive damages," King continued.
