MORE DETAILS REGARDING R. KELLY'S RELATIONSHIP W/FMR. PUBLICIST'S DAUGHTER & WILL SINGER MAKE HIS ALLEGED SEXTAPE VICTIM HIS NEXT 'WIFEY'?

I intended to post this last week, but I totally forgot about it! LOL! Just so you all know, the blog post is pretty lengthy.

More details have emerged regarding R. Kelly's indiscreet relationship with his former manager's stepdaughter, Maxine Daniels, as well as brand new details regarding his current relationship status with the infamous teen (now 23-years-old) from his sex tape. I swear, the higher a monkey climbs, the more his ass show. Don't it? Just when you thought you knew someone...BAM, BAM!...they do something else to convince you that they're still nine cents short of a dime. I'll explain that later on in the story. Anywhoo, as most of us know, about five months ago (on August 28, 2007 to be exact), Regina Daniels, abruptly resigned her duties as R. Kelly's publicist and family friend of over 14 years after accusing the singer of 'crossing the line'. At the time, some folks speculated that the reason for her departure was due to R. Kelly physically assaulting her. Not true at all. "...I have prided myself on loyalty, respect and professionalism. It saddens me that I was not always shown those same courtesies during my 14 year tenure as Mr. Kelly’s publicist...there are some lines that should never be crossed professionally or personally. Mr. Kelly crossed a line that forever altered the scope of our relationship," Daniels said in her official public statement.


Regina and her husband, veteran music retailer, George Daniels, severed their personal and professional ties with the R&B singer--someone they considered as their son--after learning Kelly had been having a sexual relationship with their daughter, Maxine, 21 (Blogger's note: see photo on the right). Kelly, 41, and Maxine (who the singer once referred to as his 'little sister') had been seeing each other since last June. From the looks of things, Kelly placed all of his morals, loyalty to family and common sense to the side once he noticed how 'womanly' his 'little sister' had become while attending her 21st birthday party last April at Bar One in Chicago. For weeks, Kelly aggressively pursued her and according to reports, she was a willing participant. Soon after, the 'couple' began dating on the down low and in true SugarMac Daddy form, R-ruh began lavishing his brand new boo with expensive gifts: Gucci handbags, an iPhone (oooh, what a treat! I mean, really!), designer dresses, jewels and trinkets and whatnot. He even opened up his home just so that he could kick it with her and her sorority sisters of the illustrious Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporated.

Needless to say, the girl is a grown ass woman who can date any man she wants to. No harm, no foul, right? Wrong. Well, sort of. I guess it depends on who you're asking. She couldn't have been too much of a grown-ass woman because she hid their relationship from her parents. As a matter of fact, while she was hiding...she was also lying.

Now, is that the business or what? But I digress. Anyway, Maxine--who had just broken up with her boyfriend before hooking up with Kelly--would tell her parents she was attending summer school Monday through Friday. What Regina and George didn't know was that Maxine would leave school on Thursdays to stay with Kelly before going home to visit them on the weekends. However, by July, Kelly and Maxine's courtship came to an end when Maxine felt she could no longer keep lying to her parents about her relationship with Chester...I meant Kelly. You would think her breaking things off with him wouldn't piss off the Pied Piper...but it did...but not for long though. What he did next boost his status up three notches on my Shit List...and that's a feat in itself considering the fact that he was already holding the number one spot! Think about it.

Even with his child pornography trial slated to begin in a couple of months, this dude still has the gray-haired balls to mess around with the same girl (no pun intended...well sort of...okay, not really...just a little bit...like a smidge of a little bit) from his infamous and incriminating sex tape. Yeah, you read it right. According to Jamie Foster Brown, her name is Rashana (Blogger's note: Rashana is not pictured in this blog post) and she is now 23-years-old. She also accompanied Kelly (along with his 10-year-old daughter, Joanne) on his recent Double Up tour. Kelly, who claims to 'love' Rashana and even goes as far as referring to her as his 'wifey,' has since moved her into his home once his wife Andrea (and their kids) moved out. No wonder she (Rashana) doesn't want to testify against him.

As far as where things stand with Kelly and the Daniels...well, first all, he had the nerve to be upset with Regina for giving him the silent treatment and leaving him to fend for himself. With his trial coming up, he's going to need all the emotional support he can get. It's just too bad that he betrayed and lied to, possibly, the only two people who ever had his back and believed in him the most. How you deceive and disrespect the same two people who taught you how to Step In the Name of Love? That, too, is not the business. Reportedly, George broke down and cried upon hearing the news that his daughter had been sleeping around with Kelly. And after George confronted Kelly and asked him for the truth, Kelly took the punk-ass route and proceeded to bitch up and began crying before swearing to George that he would never do anything like that because they were 'family.'

After the holy shinola hit the fan last November, George told EUR's Lee Bailey, "Bottom line is [R. Kelly] crossed a certain line with me and my wife that you shouldn't cross. I respect his talent. You can't deny he's a talented person. But beyond that, everything else is just gone." Brown says Kelly knew his relationship with Regina and George was over when George stopped receiving the tailor-made designer suits Kelly had been sending to him. Now, that's when you know you done f'ed up!

Regina is now back in the swing of things, doing what she does best. Just days after disassociating herself from R. Kelly, the 50-year-old publicist picked up celebrity clients Wyclef Jean, Young Dro and Fantasia. Bless her heart.

TRINA IN SISTER 2 SISTER MAGAZINE; RAPPER DISHES ON LIL WAYNE & HER 'FAVORITE' DESTINY'S CHILD MEMBER THAT SHE WOULD LOVE TO WORK WITH.

(CLICK PIC TO SEE ITS HQ VERSION)

Miami rapper Trina graces the February 2008 cover of Sister 2 Sister magazine. In her interview, the self-proclaimed 'Baddest Bitch' candidly opened up and discussed how she was able to move on and mend her heart after her much publicized breakup with rapper Lil Wayne. (Just remember that the following quotes are her exact words, not mine. Therefore and thus and such, good luck trying to decipher what the hell she was talking about). She also revealed her current relationship status as well as a certain Destiny's Child (who she refers to as her 'favorite') member she hopes to work with in the near future and why she has the utmost respect for her. Trina is definitely back and ready to re-introduce herself as the 'Baddest Bitch....Reloaded.' And she has a special message for all of her loyal fans. Check out the excerpts below.

TRINA ON HOW SHE WAS ABLE TO COPE & AND REGAIN CONTROL OVER HER LIFE AFTER LOOSING WHO SHE BELIEVED WAS HER SOULMATE, LIL WAYNE: "There are a lot of great memories. There are a lot of bad memories. Whenever something goes wrong and whenever you've been hurt and you go through a situation, you're wondering, 'Am I the the person that did something wrong?' I feel like for myself, it took for me to be single again and to dig inside myself and to not blame anybody--not blame myself, to forgive and to let go of the hurt that I felt in a past situation. When you genuinely truly love somebody, it's a part of you. It sticks with you forever. There's nothing more important in this life than yourself, and I think as humans we allow ourselves to sometimes love other people more than we do ourselves. I've learned from a lot of things that I've done in the past that I'm praying to God that I don't do in the future.

A relationship can sometimes damage your mind and just everything about you as a person. I'm human and I do hurt and I do cry and I do get emotional, and to be able to get over it and get on with my life and put myself in a better place, that's a great feeling. There's no hurt that I feel like I can endure that I haven't already endured. I think that if it hurts and you endure losing someone, then as far as breaking up or falling in and out of love, I think that's a part of life. It's a true statement how sometimes love can turn into hate or sometimes you feel love and you can fall out of love. It's important to get yourself back together and to get things back in perspective--to really know that this is life and life happens, and nothing lasts forever no matter how much you want it to."

TRINA ON BEING SINGLE AGAIN: 'I am very happily single and I'm proud to say that because I'm in control of my life. I'm in control of myself and I've learned a lot being single. It's given me a chance to learn my self-worth, to learn what matters to me the most. It's given me a chance to love myself all over again, without the company of a companion. There are some insecurities. There are some strong and weak points, but it's just important to know that life doesn't end after a relationship. All I can do is live everyday to the moment, to the fullest, as if it was my last day, and be happy about it."

TRINA ON WHY SHE WANTS TO WORK WITH DESTINY'S CHILD FRONT & CENTER WOMAN, BEYONCE: "I think if I could work with anybody I would love to work with, it would definitely be Beyonce. That's my favorite in the world. I would love to see her back with Destiny's Child. I loved Destiny's Child. I just love them all, and I just think for her as a person, just to see her work so hard--you know, she can overcome and conquer anything. And it wasn't always an easy road, and even when she came back with the Destiny's Child breakup and her being blamed for this and blamed for that--like just to overcome all that and be strong and to sing a song and to stay on top and just keep surviving and keep pushing--she's amazing and she's a person that I totally have the utmost respect for.

TRINA MESSAGE TO HER FANS & WHAT TO EXPECT FROM HER MUSICALLY IN 2008: "My album coms out on February 1. I'm still the baddest bitch. To all my fans, I'm happy. Everybody that's following me, that's continuing to follow me and that's being loyal, get ready for an evolution of Trina like none ever seen before. It's going to be a crazy 2008. Crazy. Crazy.

GINUWINE SUES RECORD LABEL FOR THE 2nd TIME IN 3 MONTHS FOR FRAUD & BREACH OF CONTRACT.

R&B star Ginuwine is suing his record label for breach of contract and fraud. The singer claims he was duped into signing a deal with former pal Michael Bourne's King Music Group, Inc. last year (07) - and has yet to see any of the promised $500,000 advance. Ginuwine - real name Elgin Baylor Lumpkin - signed a $1.75 million deal to record an album with the company, and then discovered there is no corporate record suggesting the label actually exists anywhere in New York, California, Florida or Tennessee.

This is the second time the Pony hitmaker has filed suit against King Music and Bourne; a similar breach of contract action resulted in Ginuwine and label bosses settling out of court in 2007. Now the singer claims Bourne defaulted on that settlement deal, and hasn't paid him what was agreed. He claims the contract breach has caused significant damages to his career and kept him from professional opportunities. In a statement, the singer's attorney Brandon Witkow says, "It is our belief that Mr. Bourne never intended to follow through with his and King Music Group's obligations under the Settlement Agreement. Mr. Bourné has continuously misrepresented his intent and ability to comply with his promises. As a result, Ginuwine has no other choice but to pursue further legal action to obtain compensation for his lost professional opportunities and other damage he has suffered."

Well, whatever the case may be, Ginuwine is still out there on the grind. I found several pics of the R&B star performing at the Troxy nightclub in London, England back in October. Unfortunately, there weren't any pics of him shirtless.
