This appears to be the earliest known incidence of Kelly’s alleged abuse of Aaliyah. The witness was also a minor
The disturbing claim was made at trial on Monday. Photo-Illustration: Vulture; Photos by Getty Images A woman accusing R. Kelly of sexually abusing her as a minor teen testified at his Brooklyn federal-court trial Monday that she witnessed him perform oral sex on Aaliyah when the singer was barely a teenager. This latest accuser said Kelly’s illicit encounter with Aaliyah occurred in 1992 or 1993 — meaning the up-and-coming singer was just 13 or 14 during this alleged sexual abuse.
“He asked me to climb on top of him,” Angela said. “I paused for a moment. I was a little startled.” But she decided to do “as he asked me to do.” Angela, then an aspiring singer, said she dropped out of high school after Kelly told her that she could either sing or study but not both. She worked as a backup dancer on one of Kelly’s tours around 1992 or 1993. At the time, Angela and two friends were in a singing group called Second Chapter.
Aaliyah wound up coming along on the tour but did not perform. “She was seeing what traveling road life was like,” Angela recalled. “She was his protégée … getting her feet wet.”
