R. Kelly Actually Going to Stand Trial
Remember that whole thing six years ago with R. Kelly where this happened? "The [Chicago] Sun-Times reported it had received a 27-minute video of Kelly having sex with various women, and most troubling, the paper said, one scene appeared to show Kelly having sex with an underage girl and urinating on her face." [MTV] But then nothing much happened and people still bought his CDs and went to his concerts and all? Well, his trial finally starts this week and things are looking downright shitty for the singer.
"Troubled R+B star R.Kelly has been hit with another setback in his underage sex case - a new witness is set to testify she had sex with the star and an underage girl. The 'I Believe I Can Fly' hitmaker is currently awaiting trial on 14 counts of child pornography, with proceedings due to start in May (08).
"Kelly is accused of filming himself having sex with an underage girl, who is believed to have been 13 or 14 at the time of the assault.
"But reports now claim a new witness has come forward to testify against the star, claiming she enjoyed a threesome with the singer and the teenager at the centre of the case.
"It is expected the woman will confirm the girl was underage at the time of the act." [ShowbizSpy]
