Source: CBS News screenshot / CBS News screenshot R. Kelly may be back in jail but in his sit-down with Gayle King , the embattled singer explains why he is broke. “That’s one rumor that was true,” Kelly told King. “Here’s the deal. So many people have been stealing my money. People who were connected to my account. I went by myself for the first to Bank Of America, didn’t know what the hell was going on, didn’t know what to do.” Kelly’s first visit to Bank of America by himself was three weeks ago according to the singer. He says “its on me” in regards to him not knowing his financial status. “I had $350,000 in the bank and I told [the bank teller], ‘take the money and I wanna start a new account.’ She says it was going to take 6 to 7 business days in order to clear. Does that make sense?” Kelly was unable to make bail when he was originally arrested towards the end of February on 10 counts of aggravated sexual abuse. “How can I pay child support? How?!” the singer exclaimed while in tears. “My ex-wife is destroying my name! And I can’t work! How can I work? How can I get paid? How can I take care of my kids?! How?! Use your common sense!” He denied abusing his ex-wife, Andrea Kelly , calling the allegations lies and recapped the day that he proposed to her after flying in a helicopter with a teddy bear. In Surviving R. Kelly , Andrea Kelly detailed the alleged abuse she suffered at the hands of her husband. “My kids is listening to this … all this nonsense and I haven’t even able to spend time with them! What kind of woman would tear down a dad who is trying to have a relationship with their kids?” When asked about the relationship with his kids, Kelly responded that he had zero relationship with them. “But I love my kids,” Kelly said.

On September 15, 2018 police responded to a call stating that Black was dragging a 12-year-old boy down the street. The cops treated the call like an attempted kidnapping, but Black’s family says the boy is a friend and was not at risk of harm.

It’s been a busy couple of weeks for the Kardashian family, huh? Everybody knows the family thrives on drama, but it’s been a little much, even for them. Just after Valentine’s Day, Khloe Kardashian finally dumped Tristan Thompson . That’s been a long time coming — he got caught cheating on her more than once while she was pregnant with True, and it stands to reason that he stepped out more than just those two times. Unless he is just very dumb, which is a solid possibility. She’s been trying to make it work ever since then, but something happened last month to finally push her to end things. What happened was that Tristan hooked up with Jordyn Woods . According to some witnesses, both Tristan and Jordyn were at the same club on February 16th, and they were “all over each other.” It’s bad enough that Tristan was caught once again, but for him to have the nerve to do it with Jordyn, Kylie’s longtime best friend and someone who’s always been close to the family? Just keep it in your pants, dude, it’s not that hard. So yeah, when Khloe found out about it, she broke up with Tristan, and since then, we just can’t stop hearing about this whole mess. There have been tons of reports, but on Friday, Jordyn gave an interview to tell her side of the story . As she tells it, she and Tristan were in the same group at a club, and then the group took the party to his house. She wasn’t with him, like she didn’t go home with him , but, you know, she went home with him. She said that they weren’t hanging out all night or anything, they were just in the same place, but that “On the way out, he did kiss me.” There was “no passion, no nothing,” so it’s not like they got hot and heavy. “It was like a kiss on the lips,” she explained. “But no tongue kiss, no making out. Nothing.” Throughout the whole interview, Jordyn kept saying things like “I allowed myself to be in that position,” so it’s clear she’s taking some responsibility for it all. And while she admitted that she was drinking, she insisted that nothing else happened besides that one kiss. Khloe was not impressed by the interview . She tweeted directly at Jordyn, asking “Why are you lying?” “If you’re going to try to save yourself by going public, INSTEAD OF CALLING ME PRIVATELY TO APOLOGIZE FIRST, at least be HONEST about your story.” “BTW,” she added, “you ARE the reason my family broke up!” It was a little harsh, and she’s since taken it back a little bit, tweeting that “Jordyn is not to be blamed for the breakup of my family. This was Tristan’s fault.” So we know how Khloe feels about everything … what about Kylie? Because remember, Jordyn is (was?) Kylie’s best friend. The two go way back, and Jordyn was even living with Kylie when all of this went down. She moved out pretty quick, and although there’s been no official word on how their friendship is … it can’t be great right now, you know? Kylie’s got to be pretty upset about what happened, and that’s not even considering the reports that Travis Scott has been cheating on her . Earlier this week, TMZ reported that she’d seen “proof” that he was hooking up with someone else, and that Kylie was so upset that he cancelled a concert to deal with the situation. At first it looked like she was going to dump him, but now sources are saying that she’s willing to try to work things out. Like we said, it’s been a busy time for the family. So it makes sense that, according to a family insider who spoke with People, she’s not doing so well. “Kylie had a rough week ,” the source claims. “She is still devastated about Jordyn and had an argument with Travis after she checked his phone and saw something that she didn’t like.” But with Jordyn, “She has basically lost part of her world. She is very, very upset.” “She always trusted Jordyn with everything.” The source says that “Kylie just can’t make sense of what happened. She still has so many questions for Jordyn.” As time goes on, we imagine that everyone involved will keep talking about this more and more — you know Kris Jenner is already pumped about getting all of this on the show — so she’ll probably get her answers. But we can’t imagine their friendship will ever be the same, if they even speak to each other again. Does everyone know to leave Tristan Thompson alone now? If any good can come from this, that would be it. View Slideshow: Jordyn Woods: Who is Kylie Jenner’s BFF (and Khloe’s Home-Wrecker)?!
Source: gotpap/Bauer-Griffin / Getty Khloe Reacts To Jordyn Woods ‘Red Table Talk’, Says She’s Lying Khloe Kardashian has responded to Jordyn Woods ‘ “ Red Table Tal k” confession, and she’s calling her a liar. The reality star insinuated in tweets that Jordyn never apologized like she stated in her interview. Khloe also says Jordyn’s story was flat out dishonest. We are guessing she is comparing Jordyn’s take to whatever baby daddy Tristan Thompson told her privately… Why are you lying @ jordynwoods ?? If you’re going to try and save yourself by going public, INSTEAD OF CALLING ME PRIVATELY TO APOLOGIZE FIRST, at least be HONEST about your story. BTW, You ARE the reason my family broke up! After Khloe tweeted this, folks got up in her a$$ about blaming Jordyn and she added this part about Tristan… Tristan is equally to blame but Tristan is the father of my child. Regardless of what he does to me I won’t do that to my daughter. He has been addressing this situation PRIVATELY. If Tristan were to lie publicly about what conspired,then yes I would address him publicly as well. What do these tweets even mean? Tristan is to blame BUT he’s her baby daddy so he gets a pass? Why are you lying @jordynwoods ?? If you’re going to try and save yourself by going public, INSTEAD OF CALLING ME PRIVATELY TO APOLOGIZE FIRST, at least be HONEST about your story. BTW, You ARE the reason my family broke up! — Khloé (@khloekardashian) March 1, 2019 Tristan is equally to blame but Tristan is the father of my child. Regardless of what he does to me I won’t do that to my daughter. He has been addressing this situation PRIVATELY. If Tristan were to lie publicly about what conspired,then yes I would address him publicly as well — Khloé (@khloekardashian) March 1, 2019 Interesting. During her conversation with Jada Pinkett-Smith, Jordyn admitted she was wrong for being at Tristan’s house after the club, she admitted to having her legs lying across his on a couch with people around and revealed he did kiss her at least once as she left his house. The 21-year-old, however, says they never slept together. What do YOU think of Khloe’s reaction to Jordyn’s take on what happened? Meanwhile, twitter is reminding Khloe her baby daddy is trash. Hit the flip to see.
Though Jordyn Woods insists that it wasn’t her fault that she boned Tristan Thompson , Khloe Kardashian reportedly remains unconvinced. Now she’s speaking out and roasting “cheaters.” She says that they’re not sorry for what they did — only that they were caught and exposed. Khloe is once again indulging in one of her favorite pastimes: expressing her feelings through vagueposts on her Instagram Stories. “Remember: they cheated because they wanted to,” her not-so-vague post begins. The text continues: “They lied because they could, and now they’re sorry because they got caught.” “It’s always about them,” Khloe says about cheaters. The text affirms: “You did nothing to cause or deserve it.” It sounds like she is reminding herself that she’s not to blame for the misdeeds of her cheating baby daddy. “You ever notice people would rather stop speaking to you,” Khloe’s next text post begins. The Instagram Story continues: “rather than apologizing when they’re wrong?” It sounds like she’s complaining that someone has ghosted her instead of just apologizing. Is her gripe that Jordyn Woods is hiding in shame? Has someone else in her life just vanished on her rather than admit that they were wrong? Or … is Khloe trying to encourage someone (Jordyn) to come in out of the cold and grovel at her feet? Jordyn Woods is currently scheduled to appear on Jada Pinkett Smith’s Red Table Talk on Friday. Notably, the Smith family is very close to Jordyn but also to the Kardashians — specifically, to Kylie. Also, unlike so many of the people and families in the Kardashian clan’s orbit, the Smiths are titans in their own right. If Jordyn was looking for a trusted place to go that wouldn’t feel beholden to bow down to Khloe’s feelings, she found it. The Smiths are their own dynasty. Is Khloe trying to silence Jordyn? Because that second message from her Instagram Stories sounds like she could be urging Jordyn to reach out to her and apologize. Is there something that she doesn’t want Jordyn to reveal on Red Table Talk ? If so … it might be too late. Jordyn has said her piece, and now it’s just waiting to air. But if Khloe is open to talking to Jordyn or even to reconciliation, that could still be a good and important thing. We just hope that Jordyn doesn’t say anything in her interview to screw that up. See, Jordyn and Kylie have been BFFs for years. Some people use terms like “best friend” casually, but this is a real bond. The two were like sisters. Jordyn was with Kylie for every step of the way in her pregnancy, from the initial test to the delivery. She’s been like a third parent to baby Stormi. She lived with Kylie and now she’s lost that huge part of her life — including her home. It would be amazing if Khloe cooled off enough to let Kylie and Jordyn reconcile. It has been reported that Jordyn had been drinking — perhaps even heavily — the night of her hookup with Tristan. Despite rumors to the contrary, it is said that this was a one-time thing. After the two made out, Jordyn reportedly immediately knew that she had screwed up and insisted that she had to leave. Unfortunately, it appears that she was too late to escape the wrath of the Kardashians. Is it too late for her to make amends and repair some broken relationships? Only time will tell.

Khloe Kardashian dumped Tristan Thompson after his secret affair with Jordyn Woods stopped being a secret. Now that he’s no longer “tied down,” he apparently feels free to tell all about Khloe and their relationship. After everything that he’s done, is Tristan really going to slam Khloe like this? Tristan Thompson’s first response to claims that he was caught hooking up with Jordyn Woods was to tweet that it was “fake news.” Obviously, that didn’t work — and he’s been pretty quiet since then. RadarOnline reports that Tristan doesn’t plan to stay silent. In fact, he apparently wants to get a lot off of his chest about his now-broken relationship. “He’s kept a dignified silence this whole time,” the insider characterizes. “But,” the source continues, Tristan “doesn’t see a reason to do that any longer.” “If Khloe wants to trash-talk him,” the insider says. “Then he’ll hit right back.” One wonders what negative things Tristan could possibly say about her. Especially since he was apparently cheating on her at each and every opportunity. “But,” the source notes. “If she keeps things civil he’ll play nice.” “And,” the insider adds, Tristan will “talk about the positive aspects of their relationship.” Again, we wonder what possible moral high ground Tristan could believe that he has. Regardless, though, he’s not under a gag order and he’s not planning to act like it. “But he’s damned if he’s staying quiet, that’s for sure,” the source concludes. Whether Tristan praises Khloe or tries to drag her name through the mud, we’ll say this much: It could make for some very interesting reading. The Kardashians tend to cultivate relationships with people whom they trust. It’s a rare treat to hear someone willing to tell all about their encounters with the famous family. That said, we won’t hold our breath for Tristan to actually throw anyone under the bus. First of all, this report — enthralling though it may be — is unconfirmed. Second of all, Khloe is True’s mom. Tristan probably doesn’t want to pick any battles with her (or worse, with Kris). As we have mentioned before, Tristan Thompson is a young, attractive athlete. He could absolutely find a girlfriend or wife who is happy to look the other way when he has hookups and threeways. Plenty of people have open relationships or open marriages. Some even have one-sidedly open romances. But that is not Khloe. She wanted a loyal, monogamous boyfriend. And that’s not what she got. We hope that Tristan would consider the damage that he has already done before he considers lashing out in an interview. Tristan didn’t just screw things up with Khloe. True is nearly a year old. That is old enough to notice when things change between adults. Tristan also played homewrecker because his (latest) affair was with Kylie’s BFF, Jordyn Woods. Now Jordyn is cut off from people she’s considered family for years. She had to move out of Kylie’s guest house. Tristan could have at least had the courtesy to not bang Khloe’s sister’s bestie. We’re not saying that Jordyn is blameless in this — but we will say that some would argue that Jordyn did Khloe a favor. Who knows how long Khloe would have stuck with Tristan if this hadn’t gone down, you know? View Slideshow: Khloe Kardashian Shades Jordyn Woods, Puts on Brave Face for the Press
