R. Kelly left jail on Monday night and went straight to a McDonald’s — where he was reportedly greeted by several fans, including women and children, who took selfies and blared his music.
Photos posted on Twitter by local reporters show the embattled R&B star ordering at the counter and scarfing down French fries while his supporters wait outside.
Sources told TMZ that Kelly ordered a quarter-pounder meal with a soda and some coffee. He also asked for BBQ sauce on the side.
