R. Kelly
Everybody has a favorite teacher from high school, so does R.Kelly, but he went as far as to help her out in more recent times.
87 Year old Lena McLin used to teach music to R. Kelly, when he was in his teens. She played a crucial role in shaping his love for music, introducing him to all kinds of genres, and in doing so she layed the foundation for what would later become an incredible music career.
But recently, her appartment got converted to a condo she would no longer be able to afford just living on a pension plan nowadays. As soon as R. Kelly heard about this, he started a GoFundMe account and organized a benefit concert in order tor raise money for her.
In interviews R.Kelly has actually spoken out about her influence. He’s told press that this was the apartment he would actually help clean truing to help her out when she was teaching him.
