Trey Songz has some words from R.Kelly. The R&B singer said via his blog seefurtherthaniam.blogspot.com that R. Kelly should stop using “Autotune”. Songz says:

Defense attorneys rested their case after two days of testimony in the R. Kelly trial.

R. Kelly’s attorney, Ed Genson, wrapped things up early Monday without calling any witnesses to the stand. Jurors were sent home that day.

Today, prosecutors plan to call two rebuttal witnesses. According to the Chicago Tribune, one is Grant Frederics, a forensic video analyst who found what appeared to be a mole on the back of the man in the sex tape.    (more…)

According to the Chicago Times, 3 relatives of the girl who allegedly appears in a sex videotape with R&B superstar R. Kelly took the stand Wednesday — and each said the girl on the tape is not their family member.

Shonna Edwards, 27, said she was formerly in a singing group with her cousin, who prosecutors allege is the underage girl in the tape. The group toured throughout Europe in the late 1990s, she said.
