D'Angelo's Publicist Cracks Me Up

I want to make sure you understand going in that this is about the singer D'Angelo and not Beverly D'Angelo. If it was Beverly the story would be way more interesting, and as a bonus would be someone everyone knows. Beverly is the very popular and talented actress while D'Angelo had a fairly successful record called Voodoo ten years ago and has done little to nothing else since except find new and more creative ways to get arrested. All in all, Beverly gossip is always better, especially when she and Al Pacino are fighting over the kids, but today it is D'Angelo.

Anyway, over the weekend D'Angelo was arrested for soliciting a prostitute. A female one. See, again, kind of tame. It was the middle of the night and he offered $40. He got arrested. The police found $12,000 in cash in his car. Maybe if he had decided to spend more than $40 he might not have got arrested. Just saying.

Today his manager released a statement saying D'Angelo was innocent and blah blah blah. The part that cracked me up was his manager said D'Angelo was in good health. Huh? Who asked if he was healthy? He also managed to make sure to let all D'Angelo fans know that a new album is on the way. Whatever. When is the new Vacation movie?
