R&B singer D’Angelo was arrested during the weekend, accused of trying to pay $40 to an undercover police officer who was posing as a prostitute in Virginia.

Police say the singer was driving in his Ranger Rover vehicle and offered a woman $40 to perform a sexual act.  He thought the woman was a prostitute, but she turned out to be a cop. 

Police also said he was carrying $12,000 in his vehicle. 

D’Angelo ought to be ashamed of himself.  Not because he was trying to hook up with a prostitute.  He should be ashamed because he was only going to pay her $40. 

What a cheapskate.  He had $12,000 in his vehicle.  He should have at least offered her $200. 

Meanwhile, D’Angelo’s spokesperson released the following statement.
