R. Kelly and Keri Hilson joined forces for his new single “Number One” and the video pays homage to Keri’s Atlanta hometown. Featuring DJ Greg Street who shouts out V-103, the video also shows Kelz and Keri saluting Michael Jackson. In one of the scenes in the clip, the duo, who dubbed themselves R. Keri for this collaboration, wears specially made jackets that have Michael’s trademark sparkling effect.
“It’s in honor of Michael Jackson,” R. Kelly said during the “Number One (Behind The Scenes)” video. “Don’t nobody get the wrong impression and try to make it negative. I love my man. I will rep him for the rest of my life.”
Keri added that it was only fitting to honor Michael in the video. “He’s No. 1,” Keri said. “That’s what it’s all about.

Singer R. Kelly has been released from the balls and chains of marriage and is free to surf the net for minors mingle with the single chicks!? Most of us are way to old for the former R&B superstar, but hey…maybe he’s changed his ways.? At any rate, for those of you who care….Kelz is back on the market. 😕

The couple, who had been married for 11 years, have two daughters and a son together. “The parties have reached an amicable resolution concerning all issues related to their marriage, and will share joint custody of their three children,” their Chicago-based lawyers said in a joint statement. “The details of this agreement will remain confidential and the family requests that their privacy be respected during this time.”
Despite this “amicable” split, in the fall of 2005, Andrea Kelly, a former backup dancer for the Chicago-based R&B star, went to court to obtain an emergency restraining order against the singer, claiming physical abuse, harassment, stalking and interfering with her personal liberty. She wrote in her petition that she didn’t want any contact with Kelly “at all, by any means.” At the time, Andrea had moved out of the home the couple shared, and R. Kelly released a statement saying, “My wife and I had a heated argument, and we are now in the process of working it out.” The protection order was later rescinded.
The initial split came less than a year after Kelly saw charges dropped against him in Florida for having sex with an underage girl, but amid a long-running court case in Chicago in which Kelly was accused of child pornography based on a widely-distributed videotapethat allegedly showed the singer having sex with an under age girl. He was acquitted of those charges last year.
Kelly was also briefly married to then 15-year-old singer Aaliyah for five months, but that marriage was reportedly annulled in February 1995.
Grand Hustle Comedian and Atlanta resident Lil Duval has flipped the script and shows you how R. Kelly’s interview should have went down. ?I’m still laughing… 😆
