R. Kelly Responds To New Allegations
July 2nd, 2009
R. Kelly has responded to new claims that he is under investigation for being sexually involved with a minor, with reports police showed up on his door after receiving a tip-off that he was living with an underage girl.
The singer has jumped on the National Enquirer story, releasing the following message through his spokesperson:
“A wildly exaggerated and inaccurate report has been circulating on the Internet that Olympia Fields police showed up at R. Kelly’s house with a search warrant just before the singer left for his three-week concert tour in Africa last month and then searched the place looking for a missing 17-year-old girl.
This is completely false. No police ever showed up at Kelly’s house with a search warrant nor was his house ever searched. It is also not true, as the unsubstantiated report claimed, that any such girl ever stayed overnight in Kelly’s house or that she had been there but left shortly before some mythical police search.
Kelly’s attorneys have informed the police that they will cooperate fully with any investigation.”
Additionally, Olympia Police has issued a statement backing up the claims saying, “All rumors are completely false information. There is no investigation into R. Kelly at the present time. We have been fielding calls for the past three days.”

When I was a boy of fourteen, my father was so ignorant I could hardly stand to have the old man around. But, when I got to be twenty-one, I was astonished at how much he had learned in seven years.
