R. Kelly headed straight to McDonald’s after posting a $100,000 bond on his million-dollar bail Monday evening. TMZ reports that Kelly ordered a Quarter Pounder meal with BBQ sauce on the side and sat with his legal team while he ate, but left the fast-food restaurant after a small crowd began to gather. Kelly posted the $100,000 bond by cashier’s check after he appeared in court and entered a not guilty to plea to 10 counts of aggravated sexual abuse. TMZ reports Kelly has another financial deadline looming: He has to pay about $160,000 in back child support to his ex-wife, Drea, by March 6, or he’ll be back in jail. Kelly reportedly picked up the check for his legal team’s meal, which was less than $50.
