BeBe Winans and Oprah Winfrey

Until all domestic abuse allegations are cleared and resolved, singer BeBe Winans will not be appearing on an upcoming episode of The Oprah Show.

While promoting he and his sister CeCe’s new album Still, the gospel veteran taped an appearance of the “Karaoke Challenge” show as a judge last Friday, and bloggers and Winans’ ex-wife accused Oprah of having a double standard after having a special on domestic abuse and taking a strong stance against domestic violence following the Chris Brown/Rihanna assault incident.

Last Friday when Winfrey allowed BeBe Winans onto the show, his ex-wife told TMZ she was “hurt” by the talk show host’s decision because their case is still pending. Now, it looks like Oprah got the message.

Winans was charged with assualt last winter after he allegedly pushed his ex-wife Debra Winans to the ground following an argument regarding the custody of their children.  His official court date is set for January 20th.

Bebe WinansGospel singer Bebe Winans, who was recently charged with misdemeanor domestic assault released the following statement over the weekend:

“To be accused of these allegations, which arose out of a child custody right dispute and my desire to spend time with our children as court ordered, is nothing less than heart wrenching. Since I choose to say nothing negative about my children’s mother, I will make no comment other than to say the allegations are inconsistent with my character and the foundation upon which I was raised and I am prayerful that the matter is straightened out very soon for the sake of our children.”

According to court documents, the 46-year-old gospel star was charged after allegedly getting into an argument with his ex-wife, Debra, about their children back in February. Debra told authorities that Bebe pushed her to the ground, and after he was arrested and booked last Thursday, he posted $1,000 bond.
