CHICAGO — R. Kelly angrily blamed his ex-wife for"destroying" his name and claimed other people stole from his bank accounts during new portions of an interview that aired Thursday, a day after the R&B star was jailed for not paying child support.
The interview also marked the first time he addressed allegations in the Lifetime documentary series"Surviving R. Kelly," which aired in January and alleged he held women captive and ran a"sex cult." A recent example of where such an interview might have done more harm than good was in the case against"Empire" actor Jussie Smollett, who was charged with falsely reporting a racist, anti-gay attack against him in Chicago. In charging documents, prosecutors cited statements he made during an interview on ABC's"Good Morning America" identifying two people in a photo of the surveillance video as his attackers.
In the CBS interview, for example, he denied ever having sex with anyone under 17, even though he married the late singer Aaliyah when she was 15. A videotape given to prosecutors in his current case purports to show Kelly having sex with a girl who repeatedly says she's 14. And police in Detroit were looking into a woman's claims that Kelly had sex with her in that city in 2001 when she was 13.
On Wednesday's broadcast, Kelly's emotions swung wildly as he explained he was simply someone with a"big heart" who was betrayed by liars who hoped to cash in.
