(2) Bobby Valentino (or Bobby V) (Bobby Wilson; born on February 27, 1980 in Jackson, Mississippi) is an American R&B singer. He wanted to be a heartthrob, even though he’s only 5’2” tall, so he stole his name. (He is known as Bobby V or Bobby V-Tino in the United Kingdom due to a lawsuit, there being a British musician who had been recording under the same name since 1975.) He was raised in Atlanta, Georgia and currently resides in Atlanta, Georgia. Valentino first entered the music scene in 1996 with the now-defunct youth quartet Mista.
