Controversial singer R Kelly has been charged with sexual assault. The 52-year-old – real name Robert Kelly – was charged following a complaint by an underage girl. It was to have taken place in Minneapolis in 2001.
He faces two counts of prostitution and solicitation involving a girl under 18
The I Believe I Can Fly singer had 18 counts of serious sexual misconduct made against him last month in Chicago and New York.
On Monday he was charged with two counts of engaging in prostitution with an individual under 18 years old.
The star was offering ‘to hire for sexual purposes a person under 18’ according to Hennepin County State’s Attorney Mike Freeman.
Kelly is accused of offering a girl he met who just wanted him to sign an autograph $200 to take her clothes off.
“We’re going to make sure that justice is done in Minnesota,” Freeman said.
