Ne-Yo tells Big Tigger the real reason he got booted from R.Kelly’s tour.

The PR spin, as reported by several media outlets, was that R.Kelly and Ne-Yo were having contractual disagreements. Ne-Yo says that’s bullsh*t. The reality is that R.Kelly took over all the dressing rooms and gave a mandate that no one should be in the hallway whenever he’s walking by. Not to mention cutting down on Ne-Yo’s rehearsal time.

Has the pedophile lost his mind or what?

    Trust me, Kels’ version of the story is the real one. Dude wouldn’t sign off on the contract and only wanted to do the big markets on the tour and skip the smaller ones!

    Yo, all you Kelly defenders are either paid or in serious denial. Kellz is a f-in’ diva! Period, exclamation point. R. Kelly’s current CD is wack, though he is a very talented man. Neyo is hot right now and Kellz is not. Keisha is WAAAAYYYY outta pocket if the story is true. Why is that NIGGAZ get a lil money, or in Kellz case alot, and act a f-in’ fool? Embarrassment to us all!

    Everything that Ne-yo said is true. I know one of the production managers and they said R-Kelly is really acting like he’s the President of the United States. Also I went to the show in New York. Keisha Cole and J-Holiday both performed in the first hour of they show. That’s a damn shame. R-Kelly knew he wasn’t going to sell out because of the stunt he pulled will Jay-Z. Therefore he wanted to add people to his tour and take it over. I have every last R-Kelly cd except Double Up and would never support him again
