R. Kelly Taking Donations To Hire Michael Jackson's Lawyer

Anonymous entertainment industry players are pitching in to help R. Kelly raise money to hire the attorney who successfully defended Michael Jackson against child molestation accusations, according to a report.

The disgraced singer is reportedly desperate to retain the high-powered Tom Mesereau to defend him in his sex crimes cases, stretching across four jurisdictions from Chicago to New York, TMZ reported.

Mesereau famously won an acquittal for Jackson in 2005, the same year his client, actor Robert Blake, was found not guilty in the murder of his wife.

The partnership is reportedly already in the works — Mesereau met with R. Kelly in a Chicago jail to discuss the case last week, TMZ said.

To officially hire Mesereau, Kelly first needs to fire his current lead lawyer, Steven Greenberg.

Greenberg denies Kelly’s legal team is courting Mesereau, calling the rumor “a complete load of crap.”

But TMZ sources say donors, including fans and Kelly’s industry contacts, have reached out to his legal team to help foot Mesereau’s fees.
