#AskRKelly Backfires Mightily on Twitter

Yesterday, in what turned out to be a (NO SHIT!?) dunderheaded PR move, the intellectual stalwarts running the R. Kelly Twitter account (remember, Kelly is illiterate) decided it would be a good idea to start a hashtag game called #AskRKelly. The results were as disastrous as you’d expect they might’ve been, with the added awful bonus no one asked for of CNN anchors laughing at tweets referencing statutory rape. We sifted through the rubble of the Twitter aftermath. It’s a shame Kelly can’t read these.

Update: He still wants your questions!
