The first love triangle in "Trapped in the Closet"unfolds right away in Chapter 1, when Sylvester -- R. Kelly -- discovers he has just slept with the wife of pastor Rufus. However, the guys' interest in the same woman is later overshadowed when Rufus reveals he is also in love with another man. Usher has dabbled in small acting roles, so playing a complex character like this confused preacher shouldn't be too difficult for the "O.M.G." singer. It's fitting considering that, back on planet Earth, Big Ush and R&B's Pied Piper collaborated on the 2007 song "Same Girl," which appeared on Kells' Double Up -- the irony doesn't stop here folks!
