Chaka Khan denies Rick James hook-up rumors: ‘He was too worn’

Queen of funk Chaka Khan fiercely denied ever hooking up with “Super Freak” Rick James after her comic pal Luenell asked if they “almost had a baby” during a VladTV interview.

“Hell nah! I wouldn’t have touched that with your stuff,” Khan shot back. “No! He was too worn … No. I was not that kind of woman ever. I may have had a couple of mercy situations, but I can actually remember — and count on two hands, without using all my fingers — how many men I’ve been with. And that’s a fact. I’m very particular.”

The late James and Khan sang together on her 1982 song “Slow Dancin’.”
