Russell Simmons also took time to send some encouraging and positive words to single dads:To all the single dads, Happy Father's day.
I hope you are as blessed as I am this week or this weekend or at least this day. I hope you are able to spend Father's Day with your children.
Fyi, the greatest or at least one of the greatest contributions you can make to humanity is to be a good dad to your children. So if you aren't as lucky I am today, make sure you get a chance to hug them or call them and tell them the truth. And that truth should be that...
YOUR WHOLE WORLD REVOLVES AROUND THEM.
If it's not true, make it true, it's never too late. Start now!!!
Respectfully ,
Russell
Bun B. also gave a few words to Global Grind about a Father's Love:If you are a young man, there is no greater joy than a father telling you he's proud of you. If you are a young woman, there is no sweeter moment than your father telling you how beautiful you are. If you are a father, there is no greater pleasure than these. I'm happy I had a father to love me, and even happier to be a loving father myself.

Dwyane Wade writes an rather extensive piece on The Huffington Post about why he loves being a father: Throughout my life, I've never been at a loss for nicknames. There's D-Wade and Flash. I love them both, but to be honest, no label sounds as good to me as Daddy.
Fatherhood has been a life-changing experience for me. While no one is perfect, I think we all have an idea of what the perfect father would look like. I strive to be a better father every day. I want to foster a friendship with my sons and have them grow up feeling close enough to me to talk to me about anything.
It's probably no surprise that one of the main ways I connect with my sons is through sports. However, because of what I do and how competitive I am, I make a point to never get too hard on my sons about sports. Instead, I try to have fun with them. Basketball is an obvious favorite. My younger one is three and doesn't have the attention span yet for long sessions, but my older son, who is eight, can play full out for three hours or so. He's got a lot of energy and that's a great way to burn it off. I try to keep it light when I play with them -- we'll work on some basic skills and play one-on-one, and I'll even let them both beat me sometimes to get their confidence up. My oldest son has an ever-revolving list of top NBA players, and as he often reminds me, my reign at number one is never guaranteed. LeBron and Kobe are his other favorites, and in the past, when my game has been a little off, I've settled for the number three spot.
There's more to our relationship than just basketball. In general, it's really the small things I do with my sons that are the most fun. One thing I really enjoy doing is taking them to the bookstore and seeing what books they like. I also enjoy taking them to the movies. We also have a lot of fun just eating together, having pillow fights and playing video games. If they're with me on the road, I love watching them order breakfast at the hotel. They can run up the bill higher then I can! I also love giving them bubble baths. I remember from my own childhood that it was always small moments that mattered most, so I try to do those things, have those goofy moments with my kids where we really laugh and let loose.
It's no secret that my father was strict and very tough on me and my step-brothers. He wasn't the type to give hugs, but instead made us do push-ups. But I respect him for what he tried to instill in us. Now that I'm a father I can see what he was trying to do by teaching us discipline. At this point in my life I can accept who he is. We all go through a time when we wish our parents were different, but now I must say I understand him a lot more.
Being a parent makes you more forgiving of your own parents. And for me, family has always come first. For instance, my mother went down a tough road and my siblings and I went down it with her, but now, she's the mother I always wanted. We can hang out, eat, and laugh, and we have a great relationship.
I'm very aware of the importance of making memories, and the importance of being really present when I'm with them. I'm constantly taking photos with them and capturing key moments on the flipcam. The great thing is, when I'm with my kids, I'm just a father. I hope people understand that when I'm with my kids, I don't take pictures and I don't give out autographs. I'm trying to make them my sole focus.
And even though they get to experience a lot of the fun involved with having a father who's a professional athlete, it's important to me that they see the importance of giving back as well. I have a Foundation, Wade's World, and I make sure they're with me as much as possible when I'm involved with activities for the Foundation. I want them to learn the same thing my mother taught me when I was growing up: To whom much has been given much is required. The motto for my foundation is "Every Child Deserves a Shot" and I truly believe that if we can touch one child, or one family, we can start to make a real difference.
Parenting can be challenging at times, and unlike the game of basketball, there aren't any playbooks or scouting reports for quick reference. All I can do is be the best parent and person that I can, and hope that the old sport saying proves true, and that practice really does make perfect. -Dwyane Wade
Miley Cyrus sat down for a quick talk with MTV and wishes her father, country singer Billy Ray Cyrus, a happy Fathers' Day:With all of her phenomenal success in the last few years, Miley Cyrus has a special Father's Day message for the man she says helped shape her career.
"My dad gets to come to my concert for Father's Day," she joked to MTV News. "I just want to tell my dad, 'Happy Father's Day,' and that I love him so much. And he's the best dad in the world and I would definitely not be pursuing this dream without him 'cause he always taught me to keep going."
On "Good Morning America" Friday, Cyrus admitted that she tends to do more for her mom in celebration of Mother's Day. Whereas for Father's Day, the pop star joked that she tends to run out to the store real quick to grab something for Billy Ray.
Miley also explained to us that she has her dad to thank for teaching her some valuable lessons about handling negative press.
"It's about being who you are. My dad has been in the spotlight for 20 years now and still every time he walks his dog they're saying, 'Billy Ray picks up dog poop,' " she said of the close scrutiny celebrities endure. "It's like, 'That's a law in California, folks.' You gotta do what you gotta do. That's life for you. That's life in the spotlight — it's never gonna change."
LaLa writes a letter to the father of her child, Carmelo Anthony in an exclusive blog on Global Grind.On this Father's Day, I want to take a moment to honor you for being such a great dad. I watch you with our son and the love in your heart for him is like no other.
Seeing Kiyan with you overwhelms me with joy, and makes me fall more in love with you more and more each day.
