Keyshia Cole arrested for assault

Luther Vandross was outed as gay after his death.

Keyshia Cole’s Friday morning was not so pleasant. She spent it in jail. The R&B singer allegedly attacked a woman who seems to have been spending the night with her rumored boyfriend.

Around 5 in the morning, Keyshia went to see Birdman at the Carlyle condo complex in West L.A.  According to some sources, she and the Cash Money CEO are dating.

When she arrived at Birdman’s penthouse, she found another woman there and reportedly went nuts. According to TMZ, the alleged victim is Sabrina Mercadel, a Cash Money employee who says that she was not “banging” Birdman and that Keyshia’s attack were unwarranted. From TMZ:

“We’re told Sabrina was not alone with Birdman at his West L.A. condo … 4 others were present when Keyshia came storming in at around 5 AM.

Our sources say Sabrina was walking out of the bathroom when Cole spotted her in the apartment … and the singer instantly went on the attack, yelling, ‘What are you doing with my man?!'”

Police were called to the scene, and they arrested Keyshia for battery. She was later released from jail on a $46, 000 bail.  Her representatives have yet to comment.
