       *Singer Robin Thicke will discuss his interracial relationship with wife Paula Patton and the reaction of both families to their union on the new "TV One on One" premiering Sunday, Jan. 6 at 10 p.m. ET.       

       Thicke tells host Cathy Hughes that his family welcomed the relationship, but Patton’s family had reservations.       

       “Pops [Patton’s father] was not buying it," he says. "I mean not that he didn’t like me – he just watched me with a very careful eye…His father is from Mississippi, and a sharecropper, so there’s a lot of real history…But, now that I’m ‘Mr. R&B singer’, I’m the coolest white guy in the family.”       

       Thicke also discusses his successful music career and shares some of his musical influences during the "TV One on One" interview.      

       “Marvin Gaye’s the epitome to me," he says. "I think if God could sing, He would sound like Marvin Gaye. . .If God was a man. . .If [God] was a woman, it would be Aretha [Franklin] or Whitney [Houston], I would say.”
