Robin Thicke is in a weird space; and he admits to it on his newest album Paula. He sat down with Ebro at HOT 97 to discuss what exactly made his MILF wife turn her back on him.
While the country was enjoying the craze that became “Blurred Lines” in 2013, it seems Robin was enjoying it in other ways. Rumors of groupie love, drugs and excessive partying followed the singer throughout his artistic breakthrough only to leave him separated from Paula Patton.
Ebro and company got right to it with a line of questioning that got Thicke to speak about how the lines got blurred, the separation from Paula, his battle with Marvin Gaye’s estate, Pharrell and more.
So we present the top 9 things we learned from the Ebro In The Morning Robin Thicke interview. Hearing what his father Alan Thicke had to say about the “Get Her Back” video was hilarious; let us know what your favorite moment was in the comments section.

Paula
When asked about his favorite track, Robin said “Living in New York City.” Even though this is a conceptual album about his breakup, he said this track was inspired by James Brown.
Missing
Robin also admitted to not seeing Paula in the last four months. He still complimented her on being his best friend and awesome mother to his child.

Blurred Lines
Robin said that he wished for that breakthrough song for all of his career and when he got it he was less then prepared. He also let it be known that he had entirely too much fun during the “Blurred Lines” days.
Support
Contrary to popular belief Paula didn’t carry the financial load early on in Robin’s career. He stated that he supported her and even paid for her acting lessons when he was a budding songwriter.
Get Her Back
He also let us know that Paula has yet to hear the album and probably has no interest in hearing it right about now.
Overnight Celebrity
Robin found it funny when white America thought he was a brand new artist when he has been considered a rising star in the African-American community for years.
The Break Up
While infidelity did play a part in their separation, Robin points to the couple just growing apart.
Pharrell
When Robin got sued by the Marvin Gaye estate it was rumored he got into some beef over the production with Pharrell. Robin cleared that up and said they are still very tight to this day.
Daddy Dearest
When his father Alan Thicke, of Growing Pains fame, saw Robin’s video for “Get Her Back” he left him a voicemail simply saying “I just saw your new video, boy you have a pair of balls.”
