COLOR ME BADD SINGER KEVIN THORNTON ACCUSED OF RUNNING HORRIFIC RELIGIOUS ‘CULT’ & PHYSICAL ABUSE BY HIS DAUGHTER!! Mikayla Thornton Drops Explosive Bombshells In ‘Soft White Underbelly’ Interview! (DETAILS)
Honey, clear off your timelines and brace yourselves, because one of the most disturbing celebrity family scandals has just hit the internet! Media Take Out can report that Mikayla Thornton, the adult daughter of former Color Me Baddstar Kevin Thornton, has come forward with horrifying allegations claiming she and her siblings grew up in a secretive, cult-like household dominated by extreme spiritual control and physical violence.
Kevin Thornton—who ruled the R&B charts in the early 1990s with hits like “I Wanna Sex You Up” and “I Adore Mi Amor”—publicly walked away from secular music in 1998 to become a licensed Christian minister. But according to his youngest daughter’s sit-down interview on Soft White Underbelly, life inside the pastor’s home was a living nightmare.
“It Was A Cult”: The Allegations Against The R&B Star
Speaking candidly on the popular YouTube interview series, Mikayla described an upbringing defined by fear, intimidation, and strict religious abuse:
- The “Rod of Correction”: Mikayla alleged that her father created a physical wooden rod—inscribed with Bible verses and his children’s names—which he allegedly used to beat the kids until they cried and begged him to stop.
- Brutal “Deliverances”: She claimed Thornton subjected his children to extreme religious “deliverance” rituals, striking them with heavy Bibles hard enough to leave visible bruises.
- Cult Dynamics & Optics: “It was a cult. My dad was the head. We were his disciples,” Mikayla revealed, claiming her father operated on fear to maintain silence. “My dad operated on fear to keep us silent because his name, who he is, his appearance, everything is optics.”
Alleged Neglect, CPS Calls & Bizarre Punishments
The allegations didn’t stop at physical abuse. Mikayla detailed a pattern of failure to protect her and her siblings during their childhood:
- Child Protective Services Involved: She revealed that Child Protective Services (CPS) was called to their home multiple times after her sister repeatedly showed up to school with visible bruises.
- Unprotected From Abuse: Mikayla alleged that she was sexually abused by other children on her school bus starting in elementary school, but claims her parents failed to intervene or protect her after being informed.
- Adult Relationship At 15: She claimed her parents allowed her to date a 20-year-old adult man when she was just 15 years old, alleging Thornton told her she was “mature for your age.”
- Chilling Curses: Mikayla—who once sang on her father’s Christian album Conversion as a child—stated she wants zero relationship with either parent today, alleging they prayed she would suffer a catastrophic car accident leaving her paralyzed or disfigured as punishment for rejecting their authority.
Kevin Thornton Deactivates Socials & Remains Silent
While Mikayla declared firmly, “I’m not afraid of my father,” Kevin Thornton has yet to issue any public statement regarding the shocking claims. Shortly after the video dropped, the former hitmaker deactivated his Instagram account.
