The R. Kelly cult

Well, this is awful.

R. Kelly Is Holding Women Against Their Will In An Abusive “Cult,” Parents Told Police

 

Tarantino will direct the movie.

 

Um, Kells is already in a movie on the internet. Wouldn't look it up, though.

 

I would ... if you want to experience the greatest hour in the history of unintentional comedy.

I seriously hope that the first thing the police or journalist who discovered this said was, "Well, well, well, what the (DOOT) is this?"

 

It's a wonder he never collaborated with Chuck Berry, given they shared so many interests.

 

This is a surprise. He seemed like such a good dude.

 

He's the only musician I can remember who performed the Star-Spangled Banner with back-up dancers.

So he may be an egomaniacal, abusive cult leader, but dammit he's also a patriot.

 

So much for keeping it on the down low.

 

What do you expect from someone who believes he can fly?

 

Trapped in the Closet is indeed amazing - I believe we've conversated twice in a week about it. But it's not what I was referring to.

 

J. said she’d heard about past sexual misconduct accusations against Kelly, but wasn’t overly worried. She is a fiercely devoted stage mom — she and her husband of 22 years, Tim, a car dealer, had moved from Memphis to Atlanta to help their eldest child’s career — and was confident she could protect her daughter.

“In the back of our minds, we were thinking [my daughter] could be around him if I was with her,” J. said. “It didn’t really hit home. Even with the Aaliyah situation, now that I think about it, ‘Age Ain’t Nothing But a Number’ ... but you don’t think about that. You grew up with the song, and you like the song.”

I wish there was a way I could feel a negative amount of sympathy for this person instead of my current amount of zero.
