Tevin Cambell

I guess TC is making a comeback but I didn't know he was out there like this... I always heard the rumors but dang.... eek

http://en.wikipedia.org/w...n_Campbell

"Arrest
In 1999, Campbell was arrested after soliciting oral sex from an undercover police officer posing as a male prostitute during a sting operation in Van Nuys, California. According to police reports, marijuana residue was also found in Campbell's car during the arrest.

The sting operation was reportedly conducted in an area near Van Nuys High School, where there had been numerous complaints from the public about cruising and solicitation.

Campbell pleaded no contest to the misdemeanor of solicitation, and as a result was ordered to pay $1080.50 in fines, attend meetings of Narcotics Anonymous and participate in a court-sanctioned AIDS awareness class. He returned to court in February 2000 to provide proof that he had completed the requirements of his sentence. To date, Campbell has not commented publicly on the matter."

He had the vocal ability to become a legend. Too bad his career stalled. He deserves a second chance. I hope his Broadway stint can do that for him.
I am convinced Beyonce's career would not be where it is, if she had dark skin.

Tevin did speak out about his sexuality years ago in sister 2sister magazine. He said he is trisexual. He said he will try anything. He is currently working in the play "Hairspray" on broadway in NY. I'm a big fan of his soulful voice which is still as good as ever. He can out sing any of these so called teen heart throb singers in his day. Even Chris Brown who has mentioned him as an idol of his. http://www.myspace.com/emale_kv

I was never a fan of his voice. I have nothing against the guy. I just can't listen to his voice. Even round and round drives me nuts.

Wow.

I don't get it. mad Why do stars have to hide that their gay? If they just lived the life, no matter how down low (cough, cough Senator) they wouldn't have to worry about being caught in the BATHROOM. evil This aggravates me. It was freaking 1999. Hell, it was starting to be cool to be gay. brick

A black male singer admmiting there gay is the kiss of death of there career in the entertainment industry. It is just not acceptable in the black community to be gay and be a singer or actor.

I remember seeing him on the Mtv softball game (Rock n' Jock or something) and he was so girly acting...I said his he gay and folks were like "No, its probably from hanging with Prince."

I'm sure his voice has changed since "Can we talk." Has anyone heard anything from him? How does he sound?

In the R&B world,being gay has never been accepted.Why do you think there aren't any openly gay R&B artists? If Luther Vandross had came out of the closet in the 80s at the height of his success,his career would have died right then and there.It's even worse in the hip-hop world.
