Noam Galai/Getty Images Jocelyn Savage’s Parents Allege That R.Kelly Gave Their Daughter STDs The parents of the woman they believe is being “held captive” by R. Kelly are speaking out. The Pied Piper’s ex-wife Andrea Kelly appeared on “Sister Circle” Wednesday for an exclusive sit-down with host Syleena Johnson where she detailed abuse allegations at the hands of the singer. According to Drea she initially wasn’t strong enough to accept that she was a victim of domestic violence, but she is now. “You have to love somebody enough to tell them enough,” said Andrea. “I don’t believe my ex-husband has enough people in his life to be real with him to be honest with him. I wasn’t strong enough. “How can I be a voice for the voiceless when I don’t have my own?” she added. “I had to get to a point to accept that I’m a victim of domestic violence.” Later Jocelyn Savage’s parents came out and told the hosts that their daughter who they STILL believe is being held against her will was diagnosed with two STDS; herpes and chlamydia after sleeping with the singer. As previously reported another woman in Texas alleged that R. Kelly gave her the untreatable herpes virus and is currently suing him.

For your viewing pleasure… Tiffany Haddish Covers The Hollywood Reporter, Speaks On Sanaa Lathan & Tracy Morgan Tiffany Haddish is currently covering The Hollywood Reporter where she’s dubbed “Comedy’s New Queen” and speaking on her rise from South Central L.A. to Hollywood stardom. The comedienne, 38, sat down with THR and spoke candidly on a number of topics including Tracy Morgan who shaded her in that interview and demanded to stop being asked about her. “He’s probably just tired of hearing my name. It’s exhausting. I’m tired of hearing my name. I could see how that could be irritating, like, ‘Hello, I died, people. I’m back from the dead. Tiffany’s cool, but it’s me sitting here now.’ So, I get it, I’m not mad about it, I love me some Tracy. Things got especially interesting however when Tiffany spoke on Sanaa Lathan who was confirmed (not by Tiffany) as the Beyonce biter in that infamous story. According to Tiffany Sanaa’s family was BIG mad at her and she was accused of trying to ruin her career. Not true says Tiffany, who’s adamant that she simply told the story to show that Baddie Bey kept her out of handcuffs that night. “I’m super good friends with her stepmom and her dad, and they were mad at me,” Haddish told The Hollywood Reporter . “They were like, ‘Why would you do this to the family? You know, black actresses, you guys have to stick together, it’s so hard for you guys to get work as it is, why would you try to ruin her career?’ But I didn’t try to ruin her career. I never said her name! I was just trying to say how Beyoncé kept me from goin’ to jail that night. I coulda just shut my whole career down.” Sorry Sanaa, looks this story isn’t going away ANY time soon… Alberto E.

Michael B. Jordan says that after the success of “Fruitvale Station,” he told his agents he wanted to steer clear of the lane of roles written specifically with Black actors in mind — instead actively pursuing roles seeking to cast a white actor. “I said, I don’t want it. I want to only go for, like, [roles written for] white males. That’s it. Me playing that role is going to make it what it is. I don’t want any pre-bias on the character. I wanted to go out for these roles because it was just playing people. It didn’t have to be like, ‘You’re playing the black guy in this.’ And everybody would be going out for the same role. Every young black actor from ages 17 to 40 going out for the same role. How do you reverse engineer that problem of pitted competition with each other and give more opportunities to eat and be successful?”” We feel him in his avoidance of getting typecast or taking roles with a certain view of a Black man’s experience…but seeing as how his most successful roles have been that of Adonis Creed and Erik Killmonger — two very distinctly Black characters — maybe it’s time to reconsider that stance?

Ice Cube has been a little…removed from the Hip-Hop scene since springboarding his movie stardom , but he’s still a fixture of classic Hip Hop and an OG. He says Drake’s career is all but over after this loss in the Pusha T battle . Meanwhile, his song Nice For What remains at #1 for the sixth week in a row, tying him in a record with Michael Jackson, so…it doesn’t seem as if his sales or popularity are dipping much, though his street cred may be dead and gone forever. Do you think he has a point? WENN/YouTube
Robert Kamau/GC Images Getcho life, sir…. Kanye Dragged Over Ridiculous ‘Slavery Was A Choice’ Comment KoonYe is getting dragged by his MAGA hat for some insanely stupid comments he made about slavery. As previously reported Kanye’s nearly two-hour long interview with Charlamagne was released today and in it, he spoke on a number of topics including Kim’s Paris robbery, Jay Z and Beyonce skipping his wedding, President Barack Obama and Deplorable Dumbo In Chief. He also denied seeing the “Get Out” memes about him and denied being sunken while crediting Kim Kardashian for caring for her “Superman” in the absence of his late mother Donda. Following that, he stopped by TMZ Live with Candace Owens (and a fresh haircut) to speak on “free thought.” The imbecilic free thought thinker then dropped a bomb about what he thinks really happened during slavery. “You hear about slavery for 400 years, 400 years?! That sounds like a choice,” said Kanye. “Like you was there for 400 years and it’s all of y’all?!” Kanye’s insanely asinine comments led to a showdown between him and TMZ reporter Van Lathan who told him black man to black man that he was disappointed and appalled by him. “I actually don’t think you’re thinking anything,” said Van. “I think what you’re doing right now is the absence of thought, there is fact in real world, real life consequences behind everything you just said.
