#MeToo activist Tarana Burke tells DJ to turn off R. Kelly song

#MeToo activist Tarana Burke, who started the movement before it was a hashtag, was a happy guest at entertainment lawyers Nina Shaw and Gordon Bobb’s TV-industry party hosted by Toast vodka at Harlem restaurant Red Rooster on Sunday — until the DJ spun R. Kelly song “Fiesta.”

“She told the DJ, ‘No R. Kelly!’ and shut it down,” a spy said, as Lupita Nyong’o and Tiffany Haddish mingled with other stars.

Music outlets are under pressure to drop Kelly’s music after he was accused of sexual assault.
