Ray J Banned From Christmas Parade Due To Sex-tape Past....

Ray J - Officials in Jackson, Mississippi have axed plans to allow R&B singer Ray J to front the city's annual Christmas parade on Saturday (08Dec07) - because of his sex-tape past.The singer and his sister Brandy Norwood were billed as the event's grand marshalls, nut now parade organisers have had second thoughts.A press release sent out on Tuesday (04Dec07) confirmed Ray J and his sister, singer/actress Brandy Norwood, would both be guests of honour at the festive event.

But organiser Carolyn Redd now claims the news release was inaccurate and Ray J will not be appearing because of his notoriety after his 2003 sex tape with socialite Kim Kardashian was leaked.Jackson Mayor Frank Melton, a family friend of the Norwoods - who grew up in the area, says, "I assure you he will be with me, not in the grand marshall car with Brandy."
