I HEAR YOU PRINCESS, BUT AT THE SAME TIME HE IS A GROWN MAN AND THERE IS NO EXCUSE FOR HIM NOT GETTING INTO DETAILS ON AGE ETC BEFORE HE DECIDES TO LAY DOWN WITH SOMEONE, I MEAN EVEN IF IT'S JUST NAME AND AGE, BECAUSE OF HIS LINE OF WORK HE SHOULD KNOW BETTER TO BE MORE CAREFUL AND THAT IS THE BOTTOME LINE !!!

P.S WHAT ABOUT AALIYAH????...I MEAN I'M SURE SHE DIDN'T LIE ABOUT HER AGE AND HE MARRIED HER, THIS MAN IS SICK..I USED TO LIKE HIS MUSIC WHEN I THOUGHT HE WANTED A SEXY WOMAN TO DO THOSE THINGS TO,NOT A CHILD !!!

Your actions will always ring louder than any song. May those that call themselves your fans be forgiven by God for putting a "slow grind" and some piano music before the safety of children. I hear pedophiles have a tough in prison. (Good)

If this was just another Joe Blow he would have been to jail long time ago. Looks like your time has come. What you do in the dark will eventually come to the light, need some sun shades?

It's time for you to go to prison with the rest of the pedophiles Mr. Kelly. You have been having sex with underage girls for years, and paying the girls and their families to keep silent. I hope that they convict you and you get the maximum sentence.

Here are my thoughts no matter how old a person looks if you get into bed with them you suffer the consequences OH and by the way he was a married man stop with the double standards and be a man and serve your time.
