Lifetime‘s ‘Surviving R. Kelly’ is widely considered the trigger that set off a ripple effect of woes for the embattled singer.

A lengthy list of women sat down with filmmaker Dream Hampton and shared harrowing stories of abuse, grooming, and humiliation.

In the weeks following, the star was hit with legal ramifications – including a 10-count indictment for sexual assault. Initial failure to post bail saw him imprisoned for several days. He then returned to the slammer after struggling to make child support payments to ex-wife Andrea Kelly. 

As he gears up for a series of colossal court dates, Lifetime have announced a follow-up special set to air next month.

Head below for details and a chilling trailer…

Today’s a big one for Pop rebel Pink.

The superstar singer unleashed her eighth studio album ‘Hurts 2B Human’ and is already seeing the set showered with praise.

With a long list of promotional stops ahead of her, the first in salute of the LP’s release was the TODAY Show. 

A full-circle moment of sorts, the sit-down reunited the singer with Carson Daly – with whom she’s been pally with since their TRL days.

Candid, witty, and raw, the feature saw Pink wax honest about her project, motherhood as a musician, social media, and collaborations she was turned down for – including one with Mary J. Blige.

Beyonce etched her name in history when she turned Coachella into BeyChella!

The momentous occasion was chronicled on ‘Homecoming’ – her smash hit Netflix docu-concert.

Sticking with the HBCU theme, the superstar enlisted a marching band and dancers from Grambling State University for the event, which was attended by the likes of Travis Scott and Jay-Z.

Pink has lifted the lid on her 8th studio album ‘Hurts 2B Human.’

Led by international hit ‘Walk Me Home,’ the set arrives two years after ‘Beautiful Trauma’ – which spurned a massive like-titled tour.

The latter is still on-going and will roll into European stadiums this summer.

Speaking with Zane Lowe recently, the airborne singer revealed that the latest leg of the trek is being revamped with all-new jams from ‘Human’ – including ‘Home,’ ‘Can We Pretend,’ and its Khalid assisted title-track.

Ariana Grande is stepping up to defend her pal Justin Bieber now that he is being slated by critics who say his performance at Coachella was frightfully dry.

Festival-goers who attended Grande’s second set at the event were elated when the Biebs emerged to support her with song and surprise his fans in the audience. Alas, he has been forced to spend the last few days dodging insults from critics who say he failed to deliver a performance worthy of the Coachella stage.
