A Michigan woman who claimed she had a six-year relationship with R. Kelly since she was 16 years old, spoke to WGN News to share her story.
The 36-year-old woman, who now goes by Danielle Williams, said Kelly lured her in when she was 16. She said she wanted to tell her story for a long time.
The aspiring model said she was given Kelly's business card by his manager at a downtown Chicago restaurant in 1998.
She said she skipped school to go to Kelly's studio on the Near West Side and said she thought she was auditioning for a music video.
"He just told me to take off my clothes and we would proceed from there," she said. "When I got in the cab, I got an envelope with $1,000. I had never seen that amount of money in my life. I had no concept of getting paid for sexual acts. I didn't think it applied to me, only for adults."
Williams also said Kelly always wanted her to talk like a baby. She said he once held her in a hotel for three days against her will.
"I always felt like if I crossed him he would kill me," she said. "I just felt like he had the power to find me wherever I was."
“As I grew older, he lost interest in me,” she said. “So I know that he’s a pedophile. I think that he should go to jail and the victims should get some type of restitution. Because the trajectory of my life changed at that moment. Nothing has ever been the same.”
