R Kelly and his camp threatened to sue Lifetime if they aired the documentary about him, but that didn’t stop the network. R Kelly had no intentions of watching Lifetimes’s documentary about all of the allegations that surround him according to TMZ.

A source close to R Kelly says that he’s “disgusted” and sees the series as a “vendetta against him.” Members from his team downloaded some clips to show R Kelly and he claims he “doesn’t know half of them.”

Some celebs have spoken out on their opinions of R Kelly after watching the series. Take a look:

I lot of artists, song writers, producers, record execs, etc are very confused as to how to respond to what they’ve seen and heard. We’ve all been inspired by this man. We’ve all been witnesses to his musical genius. We have shaped and molded talent we sign after his musical image. We’ve invested so much of ourselves into this man that it’s hard for us to let go. I no longer have that issue. I whole heartedly apologize for not coming to this realization sooner. I CANOT separate the music from the monster! My 3 black daughters won’t let me. What hurts even more are the facilitators around him. His team, his record company, the promoters, the radio stations! There has to be a line drawn. Enough has to be enough at some point. Who are we saying is worth protecting if we let this continue? I choose the lives of these young black girls! I’m sick to my stomach! Let me also say this! There are more men guilty of these crimes! Lets make sure none of them slip through the cracks every again! You are no king because kings don’t treat queens like this! #RnBMoney #TheGeneral
