New R. Kelly Photos Emerge, Social Media Reacts to His Appearance
New photos of R. Kelly have emerged online, stirring up reactions across social media. In the images, the disgraced singer is seen dressed in a long-sleeved white shirt, a green top, blue jeans, and white sneakers. The exact date these photos were taken remains unconfirmed, but they have quickly garnered attention.
Social Media Weighs In on Kelly’s Appearance
As expected, social media has had a lot to say about R. Kelly’s appearance. While some fans expressed surprise at how he looks, others have shared their thoughts on his current situation. Comedian Michael Blackson, known for his outspoken opinions, expressed empathy for Kelly after seeing the photos. On X (formerly Twitter), Blackson shared his reflections:
“I was just looking at those R. Kelly’s pics that surfaced yesterday while he’s in jail smh. I lowkey feel so sad for how his life turned out. We can’t judge him because we don’t know the full story but from being a superstar to life in prison, damn. My prayers to him and those affected by him.”
Others, however, pointed out that Kelly seems to be adjusting well to his prison life. One social media user remarked, “New photos of R. Kelly in prison surface. I’m going to be honest with you all—it looks like he’s having too much fun in there.”
Legal Drama Continues
In other developments, R. Kelly’s attorney, Jennifer Bonjean, expressed outrage over the portrayal of her client during a sketch on Saturday Night Live (SNL) 50th anniversary special. During an “In Memoriam” segment, several individuals convicted of serious crimes, including Kelly, were featured, with the audience laughing at the inclusion of their names.
