Singer R Kelly is in the news again, this time claiming that federal prison officials leaked his private information to a blogger who subsequently aired all of his personal details to the general public.

Singer has listed three Bureau of Prison workers who allegedly had access to an internal system containing information about his personal life.

According to Kelly, the leaked information was made public through Tasha’s YouTube channel, which has a large following. He states that he was deeply hurt and feels that his privacy was invaded, causing him emotional distress.

R. Kelly believes that the US government was negligent in protecting his personal information, as they allowed it to be released to the public. As a result, he is seeking significant damages.

Jennifer Bonjean, the attorney representing R. Kelly, believes that there was a deal between Tasha and the prison officials to provide all of Kelly’s private information, which they suspect was done for financial gain. Tasha, on the other hand, has denied all of the claims made against her by Kelly, stating that she was not involved in any illegal activities concerning the singer’s information.

This is not the first time Tasha K has been involved in legal cases. She was previously sued by Cardi B for defamation of character.

These claims date back to 2019 when Kelly was being convicted in the Chicago case. Since the incident, Kelly is currently serving his lengthy sentence in a facility in North Carolina.
