Last night, legendary R&B crooner R. Kelly (shown above with music industry exec and event producer Shanti Das) made a surprise appearance at ATL Live on the Park.
The popular event was held at Park Tavern and featured an evening of performances by some of R&B's most talented acts.
Look who crawled out the BACK of the insulation of the woodwork. "I'm Dreamin" singer Christopher Williams was among the acts who graced the stage with a few of his classic hits.
The show was hosted by "Lifestyle Expert" Kenny Burns.
The husbands of "RHOA", Peter Thomas, Gregg Leakes (shown above with Cynthia Bailey) and Apollo Nida (not pictured) were billed as co-hosts for the evening.
Nene and Cynthia seemed to have a great time. And looked cute.
We're all anticipating the debut of Nene's wedding spinoff "I Dream Of Nene" on September 19th at 9pmET on Bravo. And by anticipating we mean waiting for her to lay intot hat "alleged" wedding planner.
Usher's ex-wife Tameka Raymond posed with Ne-Yo's ex-fiancee Monyetta Shaw. SMH.....does anyone else smell a reality show in the works? We know there have been rumblings of a "Hollywood Exes"-styled show based in Atlanta. If they're still casting....we'd love for them to add Pebbles (LA Reid's ex) to the mix.
Legendary producer Teddy Riley was also spotted.
Proudcer Jazze Pha posed with Vawn. TV viewers will get to know more about Vawn when his new Bravo series “The New Atlanta,” debuts Tuesday, September 17 at 10pm ET/PT right after “I Dream of NeNe: The Wedding”.
Though Case, Christopher Williams, King Shakes and even Porsha Stewart (yes...the one from "RHOA") were billed as the evening's musical entertainment, the host(s) couldn't resist inviting R. Kelly on stage.
And he gladly entertained the crowd......

Also in Atlanta......
Cynthia Bailey seemed to be in at all the right places last night. In addition to catching up with her husband and fellow "RHOA" stars last night, she also attended "Jeffrey Fashion Cares" held at the American Cancer Society Center.
"I Dream Of Nene" bridesmaid Marlo Hampton walked the red carpet in a fresh off the runway look.
Former "RHOA" star Dwight Eubanks was there. We wonder what he thinks about Bravo's "Fashion Queens".
And "Married To Medicine" star Jacqueline Waters was there too.
Fun times in the ATL...
