Gospel Star In Assault Rap

Court filing: "Irate" singer BeBe Winans pushed ex-wife to ground

MARCH 12--Gospel singer BeBe Winans was booked yesterday on a domestic assault rap for allegedly pushing his ex-wife to the ground during an argument last month. According to a court filing, a copy of which you'll find below, Winans, 46, and his former spouse got into a "verbal altercation" on February 13 about "custody issues dealing with their children." At the time, Winans was at his ex-wife Debra's Nashville home, where he had driven to pick up his children. "The victim was telling the defendant of issues with the children when he became irate. The defendant then pushed the victim to the ground." Winans, pictured in the mug shot at right, was arrested yesterday on a misdemeanor domestic assault charge. He was briefly held at the Davidson County jail before posting $1000 bond. Winans, best known for albums recorded with his sister CeCe, has won four Grammy awards.

Especially Be Be. I don't know why, but I always thought he was gay.

I know being in the biz is hard, especially if you are trying to do the family thing, but there is no excuse for this type of behavior.

I see Debra has her website up, but she's not mentioning anything about the charges. She is just promoting her webcast.

He's Gay, I witnessed him trying to pick up guys in the gay part of philly, late night in the early 90's.

He checked into my hotel, and my co-worker who is a HUGE BeBe and Cece fan waited all day to see him check in. Bebe was rude and nasty to everyone and was acting like a pissed off drag-queen (very Rupaul). We were all shocked. My buddy gave me a ride home at the end of my shift at mid-night. We had to pick-up a dude that was gettin' off work at the Min-mart across from the Notorious gay club Woody's (yeah thats the name, really). My buddy pointed Bebe out standing there on the corner of 13th street with a baseball hat on and an old wrinkled white T-shirt that showed his gut off. We waited for 10 minutes as he tried in vain to hook up with total strangers. Very pathetic.

Doesn't surprise me. I read an interview with him in Jet several years ago where he was doing a lot of gay bashing. And his nieces Angie and Debbie (I think) are also known for doing the same. Seems the people doing to bashing are so often the ones who are trying to cover up.

Well as least we know now why CeCe was better off going solo with her music career.

She probably got tired of him with the many men. Especially if he was married at the time.

What's crazy to me is that they don't perform together anymore (much). They seem to be so estranged from each other.

Are you kidding?!? It's common knowledge that some Sunday-Keeping church choir members across America (especially in the black churches) are gay, bi, or lesbian on the DL.

Maybe because CeCe is just as much against homosexuality as Angie & Debbie are. But then again, CeCe is still consider a close friend of Whitney Houston, an artist that was rumor to used to be bi as well.

Maybe so. That wouldn't surprise me either.

Damn, lol.

I always wondered because he and Luther Vandross were really close at some point. I think it was when Luther was between record deals (going from Sony to Virgin). Luther even sang and arranged background vocals on BeBe's solo debut album. Maybe they were "buddies" or in a real relationship. I don't know.
