Today's viewer poll "do you believe the reports about R. Kelly?"
Transcript
00:00After BuzzFeed's explosive story about an R. Kelly cult hit the internet, one of the
00:08women at the center of the controversy is speaking up.
00:11Jocelyn Savage told TMZ that she is not being held against her will by the singer and that
00:16her parents overreacted by contacting the authorities.
00:19But things got a little weird when she was asked for her location.
00:22Watch this.
00:23Are you currently in Georgia or where are you?
00:26I actually, I'm not, no, not.
00:30I wouldn't want to speak on that as well.
00:33Are you with other roommates?
00:35Are you free to go from where you are?
00:38No, I want to speak on that as well.
00:40Hmm.
00:41Now R. Kelly is vehemently denying BuzzFeed's claims, but Jocelyn's parents are sticking to
00:46their story and they say they'll see R. Kelly in court if necessary.
00:50So that's today's Viewer poll.
00:51Do you believe BuzzFeed's report about R. Kelly having a cult of young women?
00:55Kayla, what are folks saying on social?
00:57Hey, okay, more of a mixed bag.
01:00So Juanita Shanti says, with his past, he definitely needs treatment, but I think it's funny how
01:04everyone wants to sue for sexual relations when they were consensual.
01:08Roxana Dunn says, this explains so much about his sexual behavior.
01:11He needs treatment.
01:12I pray he gets the help he needs.
01:14Women that often become prey of sexual predators are often victims of sexual assault themselves.
01:19Tia Smith says, I usually don't take time to defend stupidness, but aren't all the
01:23women involved grown?
01:24How is this different from Fifty Shades of Grey, she says.
01:27But everyone doesn't feel the same.
01:28Terrence Jones says, 100% slander.
01:31I'm not even that much of a fan, but even a blind man can see what's really going on here.
01:35He's not here for it.
01:36It's really interesting because a lot of R. Kelly fans, like they support him.
01:39They go to the concerts.
01:40They go to the tours.
01:41But it looks like the comments are overwhelmingly saying that, you know, what he's doing is
01:45not right.
01:45And a lot of questions about the parents and where were the parents.
01:48I'm just sad for all parties involved.
01:49The women, the families, and R. Kelly himself, because he's also talked about being abused
01:54himself at a young age.
01:55So, yeah, that's important to bring up.
01:58Okay.
01:58It's time to show the results of today's viewer poll.
02:01And we asked you, do you believe BuzzFeed's report about R. Kelly having a cult of young women?
02:06And here's how you voted.
02:07Okay, 86% say yes, look at his history.
02:13And 14% say no, the women are consenting adults.
