R. Kelly says surviving childhood abuse has not affected his behavior
In his first interview since he was jailed last month, R. Kelly says the charges of aggravated criminal sexual abuse are all lies. The singer spoke with “CBS This Morning” co-host Gayle King for nearly 80 minutes Tuesday. He strongly denied having sex with underage girls or doing anything illegal. King asked Kelly about his rough childhood and his story of surviving years of sexual abuse. He also discussed how the allegation against him could affect his personal life and career. Jericka Duncan, who has covered the allegations of abuse against R. Kelly, also weighs in.

Why can’t we get the whole 80 minute video?
DrewTube316 They want the Rating for the rest of the week.
Retired Stitcher I hrregfthh
Aren’t they airing it Friday night
Can you post the full video at once. ? The multiple uploads disrupts the flow. ?
Ad revenue, only reason they doing multiple post. More money.
+CG Boy Yep, more videos means more views = more money. Typical MSM move these days.
I know. I think this whole interview is pretty distasteful. Not only giving him a platform, but sensationalizing the interview (see gayle’s instagram with the dramatic photos), and now teasing various clips and releasing it like a trailer. Too tacky. Too irresponsible.
+jnnlis Yes! ?
I wanna see the whole video not them talking ?
Where can I see the whole video
tmitchem81
Right. ???♀️ Apparently they want to watch it like a movie.
Folks don’t tend to understand media, particularly television. Leave it to CBS…they do.
It’s all a production to them they don’t care about r kelly or those girls.
Dear CBS… When are you posting the FULL interview?

I missed the now deleted comment by RedSoxFan, but I can 1,000% validate that Boston is a disgustingly racism, classism and prejudice-riddled city (surrounded by such cities, towns, and N.E. states), and ALWAYS HAS BEEN. Nearly as bad as the rural south, if not worse. I forgot which state is was likened to, but I think it was the “West Virginia of the North” or something.
+Eric T some people don’t have cable or if they do, they may have been at work.
Friday
Where is the full interview?!!
Well wheres part 1 ???
aprildaonlyqueen123 it’s on Twitter someone posted the link
On my page
Can y’all do this interview for the Catholic Church also.
Better yet, when are they dragging them to jail also!!!
Lmao
There’s literally several
@+Nushka19 true, but are they living on them like they are R. Kelly? Tell the truth ,now
+MOZMOLLOY R. Kelly is in the news right now because of his recent arrest and the fact he gave a bonkers interview but, yes, the media has lived on stories of sexual abuse by priests and the cover-up by the Catholic Church for years.
For example, the Boston Globe newspaper ran a series of articles focused on a local abusive priest and the archbishop who covered it up. The reporters won a Pulitzer Prize.
Then a book was written about the investigation.
Then the book became an Oscar- winning film.
The truth was hidden for years because of the power of the church but people on this thread saying that the Church needs to be investigated have somehow missed a decade’s worth of reporting by almost every major newspaper, magazine, and radio station all across the world. A quick Google search will yield more interviews than you would want to watch and more articles and books than you would want to read.
R. Kelly, like the thousands of priests, were enabled by their privilege and the silence of others. This, thankfully, has ended for both.
I smell a South Park episode.
Forget an episode. Between this and Leaving Neverland, this is a South Park SEASON. LOL.
But I really wish the Boondocks and Chappelle Show were still around to do this right.
I smell a Family Guy episode.
Ryan Naylor hahahahhahaha i cant breatheeee
Ooooooooo I can’t wait.
I feel like he has no one left so he has to make an appeal of innocence. He needs help for real.
Yeah, he needs help. I do feel sorry for him. So talented, with soo many demons
DubtownRob ? Yes, I agree!
+Rolland Finney to bad he ain’t got millions of dollars tho?
+DubtownRob ? too late for help ..it’s time for justice.
He us going to end it
Imagine how terrible R. Kelly’s lawyer must be to have allowed him to go on national television and behave like this.
How will you feel when so many people keep saying evil things about you? Will u just seat and let your Lawyers keep defending you when your entire life is on line? Please let’s grow up and be honest with ourselves for ones.
+M Jones Let them bring their evidence, seating down with an under age or taking a picks proves nothing
He probably didn’t listen to his lawyer
He’s not ready for prime time.
U sound so ignorent . The man has been primetime for like 30years. It’s not about that..their trying to take his LIFE! Even u would be EMOTIONAL
Chant Bagby he’s not even ready for public access tv
+Michael Bond Before you call someone “ignorent”, you should learn how to properly spell “ignorant”. ??.. Oh, and FOH with that “fighting for his life” BS.. The MF’er is guilty & you know it ??
+Michael Bond they should take his life for what he did the fact you stand up for him is hilarious
The CIA won’t let us see the whole 80 min video
I seen it
???
True Snoop-Dogg,every story has two sides…. Judging from one side is being too naive
Why wouldn’t the CIA let us see it tho?? I mean aren’t they supposedly attacking this poor innocent man to create a diversion away from Trump tho??? If that was true then they would definitely put it out there.
That’s not the real snoop
He loves his kids? Yet doesn’t pay child support for them! ??? LOL’s
Ian M too much, she should have millions saved
Because of the mothers u know that they want too much
Exactly!!! Typical
+Tammy James They both did wrong tho and should be punished.
Its 2 sides to the story white America can humiliate chew you up spit you out have people they paid to make these alleged accusations
I’m not agreeing with his lifestyle but what parent would take their children to an r-Kelly concert?
The same people who would take their kids to a Michael Jackson concert. Stupid people are gullible and paedophile predators are clever and believable
Caleb West you don’t know how he was found innocent Caleb??? Have you been living under a rock all your life ? Ok simspson was found innocent it’s called celebrity talks and so does money!!!!!!!!
+MsRiff4U which even adds to the agurement they are technically legal so he’s in the clear in regards to the girls he’s living with
Free entry!
He’s a textbook Narcissist. He is not fighting for his career, his life or his kids.. He is fighting for his image.. Because without RKelly he is not RKelly and his ego is his life and the avenue to his predatory behavior.. Think about it.
+Rockets going for title are u owning ur sins??? Who showed u a 14yr old girl? Do u know the police involved in this? Let’s start a rumor about U!!! Yep and see how u feel
Facts
+THA D.O.C. I’m shole am owning up to my sins!!!!! When I wasn’t saved, I saw the tape. It still is proof it WAS HIM, regardless. It ain’t no rumor, when ur face is on a video tape, and legal documents showing u married a 15yr old girl. Sound like u need some repentance urself!!!!
YOU ARE ABSOLUTELY CORRECT!
What attorney allowed him to do this interview.
An Attorney that is Clearly Not affiliated with Sony Records ….
What if this is a conspiracy against R.Kelly?
The documentary says the girls was underage but Kelly says they were not under age they were legal.
It’s completely totally understandable how upset and hysterical R.Kelly became because you are talkin about a man’s life hangings in the balance.
At first I believed the accusations against him but honestly there’s a lot of deception and evil people lying on innocent people for revenge in 2019 and the me-too movement doesn’t seem to be a Justice giving movement.
I have to think about this one.
White attorney
Facts!!!
Now, he wants a relationship with His kids.
Kirk Williams hahahahaha
+Jermaine Latimer I agree she holding that against him and people already have him guilty me I don’t and never will when your famous and dating someone then u break up with them they gonna try to ruin u this is happening to him still and always will be a fan and listen to all his music don’t care what no one else says
Sickening, period!
………
Sir, u wanted a relationship with everyone’s kids. ?
?????
I hate this comment. ??
Lmao??????
I did not mean to laugh at this??♀️
R Kelly is not answering the questions….. ?
He keeps going around the truth!
You lied he answered… You just don’t want to hear what he has to say.
Deflecting. When honest..a direct question yields a direct yes or NO respnse. Rrrrrrrrr, answered questions with questions.
He didn’t dodge questions he gave his answers u just not willing to listen to both side of this issue
As a true psychopath does.
He completely victimized himself. . What a damn narcissist.
Yup…
He says absolutely not soooo many times ?
