R-Kelly being Sued for Canseling Concert.

R. Kelly has been sued by a concert promoter for canceling a Minneapolis concert because he had to appear in a Chicago courthouse, according to TMZ.com. The suit, filed by Nevada-based promoter Royalty Records in Atlanta District Court, claims that Kelly "never intended" to do the Target Center show, even though he took $120,000 up front for the gig; the Dec. 6 show with Ne-Yo and Keyshia Cole, among others, was at first rescheduled for Dec. 20, but on that day, Kelly was faced with threat of an arrest if he did not show up to his scheduled court date in Chicago.
The suit is seeking the $120,000 plus unspecified damages.
