As their divorce fight deepens, a Georgia judge has denied Ne-Yo's request that his estranged wife Crystal Smith be held in contempt of court. This meant his woes about the impact of Smith's claims on his reputation were being disregarded.
RadarOnline.com has learnt from court documents that a divorce hearing was held last week following the filing of an emergency application by Ne-Yo.
The judge determined that Crystal Smith did not willfully violate the court order. Additionally, the judge did not order Crystal Smith to erase social media posts in which she accused Ne-Yo of infidelity.
In his initial motion, the singer alleged that after Crystal Smith filed for divorce, she engaged in online defamation of him.
He asserted that his employment as a professional entertainer depended on his public image. Ne-Yo's lawyer announced the singer's "earnings and earning capacities are directly affected by the manner by which his image is received and considered by the general public."
Earlier, Crystal Smith stated she experienced a total of eight years of deceit and lies. naively sharing his life and spouse with many women who sold their bodies to him without protection. She said she's saddened and disgusted would be an understatement. For her to remain and accept it is insanity. She said her husband has a mindset of a narcissist,
Ne-Yo sought that Crystal be ordered to remove any social media posts about him and that his estranged wife be prohibited from speaking publicly about him. While the judge did not force Crystal to remove any posts, he urged both parties to refrain from making nasty or public statements on social media, podcasts, and other venues. The judge warned that any future instances may result in punishment.
Ne-Yo's musical success cannot be downplayed though.
His studio album, "Self Explanatory," has collaborations with Yung Bleu, Jeremih, Trippie Redd, and Zae France. It includes the singles "You Got the Body," "Stay Down," and "Don't Love Me." Ne-Yo has sold over 20 million albums globally. In 2005, his debut single "So Sick" topped the Billboard Hot 100 and was certified quadruple-platinum.
He has also written hit songs for other artists, including "Unfaithful," "Russian Roulette," and "Take a Bow" by Rihanna, "Irreplaceable" by Beyoncé, as well as songs for Jennifer Hudson, Usher, Carrie Underwood, and Celine Dion, among others. Ne-Yo is an actor whose film and television credits include NBC's World of Dance, Empire, Stomp the Yard, Save the Last Dance, Battle: Los Angeles, George Lucas' Red Tails, The Wiz Live!, and the currently airing third season of Step Up: High Water.
