According to this he's into little girls and is a woman-beater, but that's nowhere near as horrible or shocking as being bi.

R deserves to be dragged through the mud just as much as MJ was.

But R.'s victim was female, and MJ's alledged ones were male. So there it is.

Personally I always thought Michael was innocent of everything. However, for one reason or another I always thought R. Kelly was guilty. I won't judge the man though because I imagine he will be the next celebrity "case." Court TV and all those news networks will LOOOOOVE the R. Kelly trial.

I think you should start a thread about that.

Sarcasm is hard to note when put in written form. However, on some long shot chance you were serious there is a good reason I never try to get into that here. The fact is because I am a huge Michael fan, people attack me and say me being a fan is the reason I'm defending him. However, I personally wouldn't care if it was Michael Jackson or the guy next door, there isn't enough evidence in my mind to convict someone. However in R's case, they have a tape. That is enough in my book.

That idiot needs to be behind bars if he molested any young girl. Let an underaged white girl appear on one of these video's and his ass will be behind bars with a quickness. Why does the african american public keep supporting this fool when he is taking advantage of their youth. Where's the outcry!![/quote]

Moonwalkbjrain said:

"The tape" was deemed inadmissible as evidence, because it was seized illegally.

and then he is supposed to get some Stevie Wonder Award of Honor coming up in the future? I think its appalling.

omg for real?? damn

DorothyParkerWasCool said:

Is it not true that hip--hop/R&B community is generally homophobic? Whereas you could argue Disco music wasn't. R. Kelly is of the hip-hop/R&B community so the point stands and the sensational "Bisexual" as headline simply confirms.

Sounds like Kells will be making an appearance on Springer soon.

at the title of this thread.

I mean, put that type of shit on my

He's winning the first ever Stevie Wonder songwriting award yes.

As per the Sun Sentinel.com:

A spokesman for R Kelly, real name Robert, tells gossip site PageSix.com, "This is not the first time Carey has made ridiculous accusations against his brother, and we're not going to dignify them with a comment."

Carey also claims the 39-year-old penned hit track Trapped In The Closet to voice his homosexual tendencies.

Yup, his brother talked about most of this stuff on the Wendy Williams radio show last year.

Moonwalkbjrain said:

and you know the sad part about all of this is that you are SO right ....

bluesbaby said:

A STEVIE WONDER AWARD OF HONOR????? Oh HELL to the NAW!!!!!

Can't both of them just be locked up? R Kelly for his crimes against music, and his Carey/Kerry for not just being malicious, but being so fucking STUPID.

SpecialEd said:

Anyone who writes shit like Trapped in the Closet should never receive an award for songwriting.

SACRAMENTO, California (AP) -- Prosecutors said they had to drop a case against a man accused of trying to accost an 11-year-old girl because a judge wouldn't allow testimony about a slang term involving singer R. Kelly.

Tamiko Carter, 30, approached the girl last September while she was walking to school and asked her how old she was, prosecutors said.

When she told him she was 11, Carter allegedly asked whether she had a boyfriend, "then told her he was fixing to do an 'R. Kelly."'

Carter allegedly pulled his car to the curb and opened the door, but the girl ran away.

Kelly, a singer from Chicago, has pleaded not guilty to 14 counts of child pornography in Cook County Circuit Court. The charges stem from a February 2002 videotape that allegedly showed Kelly and a 14-year-old performing numerous sex acts.

The prosecutor's office said Kelly's name is now listed in the "Urban Dictionary" as a verb that means to have sex with an underage girl.

Prosecutors had planned to present testimony from the 11-year-old girl and an expert witness who would testify that Carter was referring to that definition.

But Sacramento County Superior Court Judge Lloyd Phillips refused Thursday to allow the testimony, and the district attorney's office said it couldn't pursue the case without it.

Kelly, whose first name is Robert, won a Grammy for the gospel-like song "I Believe I Can Fly." He's also known for sexually charged music such as "Bump N' Grind" and "Ignition."

SpecialEd said:

ok first off this situation is fucked up secondly at the urban dictionary thing

IstenSzek said:

That was my first thought.

He beats his wife, molests children, commits incest...

but here's the "atomic bomb": He's had consenting relations with male adults!!!

I don't care if his music sounds like it was made by angels on harps. He's as repulsive and deplorable as any other man who abuses and misuses women and children.
