Aaliyah’s Mother Slams ‘Surviving R. Kelly’ Doc: ‘This Will Not Be Tolerated’
In a statement, Haughton said, “the woman and so-called back up singer … that describes seeing, meeting or even breathing the same air as my daughter, Aaliyah, is lying and is a liar.” Haughton noted she and her husband were “always” on tour with Aaliyah.
My Thoughts
I’m not going to say too much about this as some may not have tuned in just yet.I personally do not think this young lady is lying. Aaliyah and R. Kelly were married do you really believe he was not having sex with her? I believe the mother just wants her baby girl not to have a bad image since she is no longer here which understandable. But she does not know everything that was done and could not be with her daughter at every moment. kids sneak around and do things behind their parents back. so by calling this lady a liar I think that was wrong on the mothers part. Watching this and hearing this about Aaliyah made me uncomfortable because she was only 15. Just to have that image in my head a grown man as R. Kelly engaging in a sexual act with a minor its disgusting. A lot of these girls were young and just wanted to be around R. Kelly lets be honest he was attractive and could sing their panties off. They were willing to do anything just to be around him. They did not know the price they would have to pay dealing with him. I think these women should have came forward a lot sooner but its tough and scary. These young women are and were afraid of the outcome, someone with so much power and control its a scary situation.
Going back to R. Kelly’s childhood he was molested and also his brother was molested. They both stated that it was someone in the family. Was this member a women or male? Does this even matter the point is it happened. what I don’t understand is why do we keep these people protected? no one mentions the name of whom molested them. This is why a lot of people get away with doing wrong things to children because no one ever finds out. In the black community we need to stop hiding this. Stop acting like it never happened. Stop protecting the abuser if someone did it tell who did it so everyone is aware and knows to stay clear of this person. This is exactly how history repeats it self because no one says anything. I understand it is hard and embarrassing to come out that this has happened to you which is ok. But I do not agree with keeping the abuser hidden and unknown. They should be punished for their actions.
