R. Kelly has pronounced himself the greatest black man of his generation.

The "I Believe I Can Fly" singer claims he is as iconic and talented in hisfield as a host of important black figures, including boxing legend Muhammad Ali.

R. Kelly missed a court appearance for charges of child pornography after he suffered a burst appendix this week.

The singer, who was due in court on Wednesday on 14 counts of child pornography, was admitted to Miami's Jackson Memorial Hospital for emergency surgery on Sunday.

Don't think of getting anywhere near her handsome "Titanic" fiance on set, or she might just have to hurt you.

Billy Zane's fiancee, Kelly Brook, insists on starring alongside her man in movies he makes because she can't bear to see him smooching or sharing a scene with other women.

R. Kelly may just want to start calling the courthouse his second home since the "bad boy" is constantly getting himself into trouble with the law - but this time he may be off the hook. The R&B singer was recently sued by a man who claims the musician attacked him and "held him against his will."

Henry "Love" Vaughn - who filed his law suit on Wednesday - claims to have been a "mentor and guide" to the "I Believe I Can Fly" singer since he was a teenager and even gave him an idea for a song.

Like R. Kelly, Zach Braff believes he can fly and touch the sky and thinks about it every night. The "Scrubs" actor recently revealed he has been taking flying lessons to join the list of top A celebrities who have their own private pilot license and take to the sky as well.

The 31-year old actor says getting a private pilot's license has always been "intriguing" for him, but he also admits that it's something people wouldn't think he'd be interested in, which in turn has surprised many of his peers and fans alike.

A court has ruled that the public can view R. Kelly's sex tape.

Judge Vincent Gaughan said there was no "overarching interest" in banningthe videotape from being shown to the media and public in his child pornography court case. The tape shows the singer allegedly having sex with an underage girl.
