R. Kelly worked his brother to the bone, 144 hours/week according to Bruce Kelly who says he never got a dime, so now he's blowing the whistle on the singer with the State of Illinois. Bruce says his younger bro hired him in March as a personal assistant and driver, and they had a verbal agreement for $700 a week, Bruce would do food runs and chauffeur R. Kelly.
But the brotherly love faded after Bruce started working overtime without seeing any green. According to docs filed with the state labor board, Bruce says he sometimes had to wait up to 12 hours in the car for R. Kelly and never got any sleep.
He tells TMZ he even spoke to R. Kelly about the $11k in back pay he claims he was owed, but baby bro didn't care. Bruce says he put his foot down after 3 months because he's "not working for nobody, not even his brother, for free."
The labor board is still investigating his claim. TMZ reached out to R. Kelly's reps, but no one has reached them back.This is one storm that sure ain't over in the Kelly family.Why be so mean to your own brother though? The money doesn't even add up to 30 grand in a year! Sad really.
