John Legend slams R. Kelly, says he doesn't 'give a f**k about protecting a serial child rapist'

Lifetime docu-series 'Surviving R. Kelly' focuses on the allegations against Kelly that he held many underage women against their will and abused them sexually

Just like his wife Chrissy Teigen, John Legend is not afraid to speak his mind. The singer recently took to Twitter to explain his stand on pedophilia and it looks like Legend has some pretty strong beliefs.

The 'All of Me' singer was one of the few stars who spoke out against rapper R. Kelly in Lifetime's six-part docuseries 'Surviving R. Kelly' that aired recently. Twitter was all about praising Legend, calling him "courageous" for speaking up when most stars that were reached out to denied the opportunity.
