The R. Kelly saga continues this morning on CBS This Morning.
This time, Gayle King sits down with two girls who are currently seeing the singer, and are defending his actions.
Azriel Clary and Joycelyn Savage sat down to give their version of their experiences with the singer.
“When I first met Robert, my parents told me to lie about my age,” Clary said.
Clary spoke during the bulk of the conversation, at times becoming emotional, and blaming the media for its coverage of the R. Kelly saga, while Savage nodded in agreement.
“When I was 17, my parents were actually making me, trying to get me to take photos with him, take sexual videos with him, all kinds of stuff,” Clary later continued.
King reported that R. Kelly was standing around the corner behind them coughing to let the girls know of his presence, and also threatening to shut down the interview to a photographer.
See some of the clips below.
