The R. Kelly trial is over, but it still has some juice: Lisa “3-Way Basketball Court Booty Call” Van Allen told prosecutors that one of R. Kelly’s associates suggested she should be “murked” (which she took to mean killed but, knowing Kelly, may have had something to do with merkins), while another paid $100,000 for yet another tape of the singer finding nothing wrong with a little underage bump n’ grind. Even if these allegations are true (and they’re certainly not outlandish), it’s surprising that the prosecution would call a “star witness” who claims to have successfully blackmailed and stolen from Kelly in the past. But then, hindsight is 20-20. [E! Online]
