R. Kelly Surrenders To Chicago Police

It’s been a long time coming, but cruddy crooner R. Kelly has finally surrendered. On Friday, the controversial singer turned himself in to Chicago Police after being indicted on 10 counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse.

Kelly’s attorney, Steve Greenberg, tweeted early Friday that the 52-year old would turn himself into police between 11 p.m ET — and by 8:15 pm ET, he was at the Chicago precinct in handcuffs. According to reports, if Kelly is taken into police custody, he’s expected to be held overnight and appear Saturday in bond court.

As we previously reported, the Grammy winner has been charged with multiple counts of sexual abuse in Cook County, Illinois after four women accused him of sexually abusing them between September 1998 and January 2010. Three of the four victims were between the ages 13 and 17 when the alleged abuse occurred.

It seems like he’s ready — for a jail cell.

Tamar Braxton Lolo Jones Celebrity Big Brother

Tamar Braxton Vs. Lolo Jones

This Celebrity Big Brother beef just won’t let up! Tamar Braxton and Lolo Jones are at each other’s necks again on social media, and clearly they both want smoke. Lolo shared a video of herself on Instagram prepping for the Summer Olympics, and shaded the hell out of former CBB alliance member Ricky Williams, who evicted her from the house.

She wrote,

“Praying I get thru practice … also Lord if you could give me a new pair of lungs bc I can’t breathe and my asthma pump is 50m away. Oh Wait Lord one more thing Also could you help me forgive Ricky Williams?…But like not right now but like maybe in 10 years I will be ready.”

Tamar didn’t find the caption to be funny at all. She commented under the olympian’s post:

“Yeah forgive @williams because at this point you are doing the MOST!! It was a game Lolo and to be honest we all bullsh***d each other. Getoverit.com #stillloveya”

The CBB winner may still love Lolo, but judging by the runner’s clapback, she doesn’t feel the same about Tay Tay. Lolo clapped back telling Tamar that she was just joking with the caption, but:

Use the $240K and buy some more wigs. Can’t wait to see ya.

We all know that Tamar isn’t letting anyone get the last word. She wrote back, “I will buy me a wig right after you buy you a husband.” Do you think these a just jokes? Or is it on site for Tamar and Lolo?

79-Year-Old Woman Fights Off Intruders With Gunfire

A 79-year-old Georgia woman fends off 20-year-old burglar Hans Rogers who was breaking into her home according to ABCNews.

The unidentified woman was in the kitchen of her Dallas, Georgia home when she called the police to report multiple men trying to enter her property.

The transcript of what the woman said the intruder is the realest s#!t you’ll read all day:

“Okay…come on. I got something for you,” she yelled at the intruder before firing off one shot.

The man still found another way to get into the home and ran upstairs, the woman said, before admitting that she shot at him once from the kitchen.

“This is taking way too long,” the woman said, asking for help to be sent faster. “They upstairs talking crazy.”

The woman then tells the dispatcher that she’s scared before yelling a warning to the man in her home: “I’m waiting on ya. When you come down them stairs, I’m gonna blow your d— brains out. I’m waiting. Come on.”

Clearly, meemaw was 100% with the shits. When police arrived they arrested Hans and he was charged with burglary, home invasion and criminal trespassing.

Gayle also gave some personal insight into the baby shower on CBS This Morning and confirmed that a “good time” was had by all the guests. She also shared the Meghan wanted to hold off on opening the gifts till she got home. There’s speculation that she wanted Prince Harry to share that moment with her.

“She didn’t open any of the gifts because she wants to do that when she goes home so I really don’t know what everybody got her,” the journalist shared. “She’s very kind, she’s very generous and a really sweet person. I think her friends just wanted to celebrate her. “

Chicago PD Charge Jussie Smollett With Making A False Report

***UPDATE***
Jussie Smollett has been charged with a crime. The Associated Press reports that Jussie’s charged with disorderly conduct for falsely reporting an attack on Jan. 29. The charge is a Class 4 felony that carries a possible prison sentence of 1-3 years or probation.

The news comes after his alleged “attackers” testified for 2 1/2 hours before a grand jury today, Wednesday, Feb. 20.

AP reports that the men in question, brothers Abimbola “Abel” and Olabinjo “Ola” Osundairo, told their attorney Gloria Schmidt that they wanted to “man up” and “correct this” before giving their testimony.

Jussie’s attorneys have released a statement and they’re imploring that he’s considered innocent until proven guilty. They’re also promising an “aggressive defense” of the actor.

“Like any other citizen, Mr. Smollett enjoys the presumption of innocence, particularly when there has been an investigation like this one where information, both true and false, has been repeatedly leaked. Given these circumstances, we intend to conduct a thorough investigation and to mount an aggressive defense.”

This story is still developing…

***END UPDATE***
The chief communications officer from the Chicago Police department has confirmed today Jussie Smollett is now being investigated as a criminal.

Anthony Guglielmi wrote in a tweet: “Case Update: Jussie Smollett is now officially classified as a suspect in a criminal investigation by #ChicagoPolice for filing a false police report (Class 4 felony). Detectives are currently presenting evidence before a Cook County Grand Jury.”

Previously, Jussie filed a report saying he was the victim of a completely random racist and homophobic attack as he walked to a Subway in Chicago. As evidence unfolds, the details of the attack seem to make less and less sense to investigators. Today, before a Grand Jury, Chicago Detectives presented evidence that the “attack” may have been staged. Two Nigerian brothers also thwart Jussie’s story during a police interview, claiming he paid them to attack him.

Today, store video of the Nigerian brothers purchasing MAGA hats and ski masks has surfaced. The brothers reportedly told police Jussie asked them to stage the entire attack and this supports their story. CBS Chicago found the footage of them purchasing the items right before they allegedly attacked Jussie.

Details of this investigation are unfolding rapidly, but we will keep you updated.
