R Kelly may be done with his kiddie porn trial but he is now facing more legal woes. This time, he’s on the lawsuit-filing side. The singer is reportedly mad after a nightclub allegedly used his name and image to promote and event without ever getting his signature on a contract. R Kelly claims two promoters for Sugar nightclub put his name and face on fliers falsely advertising that he was set to host one of their parties. He says he knew nothing about it. Kelly wasn’t asking for any specific amount in the suit but he did say that he’s seeking enough relief to “stop defendants’… disgorgement of ill-gotten gains”. Someone’s been reading the dictionary.

It’s been up in the air for months now but it seems that not even 14 counts of child pornography charges can stop R. Kelly from hitting the stage for his latest US tour. And wouldn’t you know it? The tour has kicked off already.
The R&B singer will be joined on the road by the likes of Keyshia Cole, Ne-Yo and J. Holiday. It’s a good thing to know that all three front acts are of legal age. The only obstacle that’s still in front of R. Kelly is getting permission to travel. When you are accused of messing with kids, you apparently get treated like one.
