It’s only the first week of 2024, and the tea continues to spill.
Following the viral and headline-making Katt Williams interview just days ago, now another celebrity is coming forward and calling out their peers for some alleged shady behavior.
Singer, Kelly Price is coming for her former co-judges from BET’s ‘Sunday’s Best’ in a post that coincidentally came from her on Sunday (Jan. 7).
It all started this week when the “Friend Of Mine” performer got into a back-and-forth spat online with an aspiring singer who goes by the name Queen Tee (@classy_queen_t).
After Tee left what Kelly deemed to be a disrespectful comment on one of her posts, the former ‘R&B Divas’ slammed the commenter in a fiery post which also took aim at some of her peers, and former co-stars.

She wasn’t done yet. Kelly took back to social media where she opened up about her experience with gospel artists and Pastors who she says tried to sleep with her.
“I’m one of the very few artists who have been able to record and tour with both gospel and R&B artists, and the lives that are lived by the people that you worship are despicable and disgusting,” Price said in an Instagram Live video.
She said she’s never proclaimed to be a gospel artist, declaring “I’m an R&B artist who did a Gospel album,” “This Is Who I Am.” But her heart was “broken” after seeing how these artists conducted themselves while touring.
“I saw the things that happened on the road with a lot of these artists,” she said, adding, “Doing shows with these artists, all kinds of stuff. My heart was broken because there was still a part of me that believed that holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord. That’s biblical also.”
The “As We Lay” singer said that she had a fly-on-the-wall view of the antics of these gospel artists and even some of the preachers by going on tours and doing shows. While being up close and personal, she explained that she was able to see their behavior up close and personal.
Punctuating her remarks with a comment about all of the preachers who tried to get in her bed, she said, “That’s another story. You won’t get it for free. Refuse to give that for free.”
“Some of your favorite preachers all over your timeline and in your YouTube right now, that if they could have gotten me in my bed or in their bed, they would have. But I don’t play those games,” the chart-topper said. “F—k a Man. I Fear God.”

None of her former cast mates/co-stars, or peers have responded to her claims at this time.
