R.Kelly 1st Sits Down Interview; Maybe Going Back to Jail Today.
R.Kelly spoke out for the first time on “CBS This Morning” with Gayle King. Gayle asked,
Do you still sit here and say you have never been with underage girls. Can you really say that?”
 
R Kelly responds,
People are going back to my past, and they trying to add all of this stuff now to that. To make all of this stuff that’s going on now feels real to people. I beat my case. You can’t double jeopardy me like that. It’s not fair.”
Gayle interjects:
I’m not talking about the one case in which you were acquitted. I’m talking about the other cases where women have come forward and said, ‘R. Kelly had sex with me when I was under the age of 18. R. Kelly was abusive to me emotionally, physically, and verbally.
Kelly replied,
“Not true”.
At one point, Kelly begins to yell and cry, stating,
“This is not me, I’m fighting for my f*cking life!R Kellycould be back in jail today. He was ordered to pay his ex-wife Drea Kelly back child support in the amount $160K by today. As of this report he still has not paid. If Kelly doesn’t settle up with the court by then, he can be hauled off to jail. The D.A. could charge him criminally for failure to pay the support
 

Tamar Braxton New Spin-Off Show  
Tamar Braxtonis living her best life. She recently won Celebrity Big Brother. She has a new man who she affectionately calls, T’Challa. Just yesterday she revealed to Wendy Williams she has a spin-off show in the works with WeTV and surprisingly her ex, Vincent Herbert, is set to appear. Their initial split was messy with allegations of domestic violence, family feuds and financial issues. It will be interesting to see how they have moved past things to effectively co-parent their son, Logan. The show will be a “reality sitcom” based on her daily life, being a mom and trying to enter music again, all of course with her special brand of humor. No word on the premiere of her spin-off, but the new season of Braxton Family Values premieres next month.
