Judge Asks Keyshia Cole: “Are You Illiterate?”
Mar 28th, 2010 by Bilal Ali
Keyshia Cole was in New Jersey for a scheduled court appearance, and she got more than what she bargained for, when the Judge on the case totally disrespected and insulted the new mother by calling her illiterate.
According to TMZ: Keyshia Cole was being sued by an event promoter who claims she blew off an appearance in 2006 after he paid her $15,000 up front.
The judge not only ruled against Cole, but she blasted the singer in her written opinion, saying Cole’s testimony was “confused and at times nonsensical.”
But the judge’s biggest shot: Cole appeared so reluctant to read certain documents while testifying, “that it appears at times that she was not literate.”
Eventually, the judge realized Cole was literate — when Cole managed to read documents that she thought helped her case.
