Two cardinal rules of black churches — don’t go dressed in the same outfit you wore to the club the night before, and please, know your gospel spirituals.

Unfortunately for Keyshia Cole, who has had a hard enough time getting through life as it is (this you would know if you saw her BET show), she broke these two rules and showed an entire Easter congregation her ass…literally. Oh, and her breasts. Eurweb has a detailed account of Cole’s impromptu church performance.

Cole was the last of the plentiful talent asked to perform impromptu at the 11:00 a.m. service (including gospel group The Singletons and Olie Woodson of the Temptations) at the Gardena, CA sanctuary.

Both the congregation’s reception of the singer and her delivery were unexpected. The situation was awkward before she sang a note.

In addition to the Bishop mistakenly introducing her with the wrong first name, she had a “wardrobe malfunction” that she was not aware of. Wearing a short dress with thin straps, apparently Cole bore more skin than was deemed appropriate for the church. When a female member of the church attempted to cover her with a shawl, the back of her dress was accidentally lifted. According to witnesses in the choir stand, Cole’s backside was exposed. The woman assisting Cole managed to cover her rear just before she stepped out to sing.

She reintroduced herself as a recording artist and asked everyone to pray that she keeps the faith to sing the right messages to the yourg women she reaches with her music. Without pause she broke into an undigestable version of “His Eye Is on the Sparrow” which got progressively worse each time she tried to make adjustments.

I wonder if her new boyfriend Young Jeezy was in the audience to offer moral support. Actually, Jeezy being in church at all would be more of a faux pas than performing “His Eye Is On The Sparrow” while you’re basically nude.
