Tyrese Gibson is currently under fire for seemingly defending R Kelly’s pedophilia case. The actor shared his thoughts about the legendary recording artist during a recent conversation with Fat Joe.

Tyrese implied that everybody has some dirt, and that there are people with similar “secrets” as R Kelly. The Fast and Furious actor even sang praises of R Kelly during the convo.

“R. Kelly, with all of his videos, what he was doing musically and sonically, and how he figured out a way to change and evolve and stay relevant over all of those years,” he said, praising his role in music. Those weren’t the problematic comments though.

He continued, “I know he has a lot of controversy and heat on him. I get it. Ain’t no need to get in my comments and if you write some goofy shit I’m going to say ‘it’s okay.’ I’m too real to fake it. I just have to say it. What I’ve learned over the years, there is a lot of people in our industry.”

“Everybody is involved in something that they don’t ever want people to know about publicly. I would say, you know what, let god do his job. If I were to find out what everyone is into, we probably wouldn’t be a fan of anybody. There is some people who do what they do, they know how to keep their shit completely in the closet.”

Tyrese ended the topic by bringing up his religious beliefs, quoting the bible and saying, “Thou shalt not judge.” When child pornography and pedophilia are involved, I think it might be okay to judge a little.
