The tycoon of temptation has written more "Trapped in the Closet" episodes.
I find mannequins a bit freaky, but I find R. Kelly even freakier so I decided I’d rather give props to the excellent talent of The Mannequin Gallery who for some reason created the uncanny likeness of the guy. Move over Madame Tussaud’s.
They said it couldn’t be done… but the Pied Piper of R&B is so caught up with his "Trapped in the Closet" saga that he’s gone and written ten more installments….
Look out for Trapped in the Closet: The Play, Trapped in the Closet: The Movie, and a new project he’s calling "The Musical Virus…"
At the risk of sounding callous (I don’t take war lightly), this is why the terrorists hate us. Because, we are not just fascinated with such unworthy dreck, but we have so much wealth and leisure time that we can afford to do so and choose to.
Am I appalled at the schlock that is Trapped in the Closet? Absolutely. Am I amused enough to watch each installment at least once, basically to confirm my contempt? You’re damn skippy. Hey, I’m giving it a fair shake. It’s not like I’ve got exclusively highbrow tastes. Dairy may not be my friend but cheese sure is.

Now I know that people are loving it, I’m up to like 15 chapters now! I’m trying to continue to grow with it, because it’s definitely ground-breaking.
Allegedly, he also believes that having sex with children is okay. I almost feel like apologizing to Michael Jackson. Luckily, I have no children, so I doubt I’ll ever come into contact with either of them.
Finally, under the category, "Haven’t We Suffered Enough For Our Sins?"
VH1: Do you have any plans to maybe spin off the songs into a feature-length film or stage play?
We’re auditioning and casting people for a major play, and "Trapped in the Closet" has been scripted out for a movie.
Why can’t the terrorists see they’ve already won? Is it really necessary for us to suffer more?
