R Kelly Feels The Heat As Trial Looms
R. Kelly must be really sweating his fast approaching sexual abuse trial as he has his lawyers scrambling to have the case postponed – again.It has already been six years since the ‘I believe I can fly’ star was outed, after having allegedly made a video of himself having sex with a 14 year old girl between 1998 and 2000.
Of-course the R’n'B singer/rapper has glossed over his panic by indicating that any postponement is purely to ensure that he gets a fair trial. Kelly believes the publicity around the case prevents the trial from being deliberated fairly.
While there is definitely some truth in this matter, he should realise that 6 years is a lot of time for the dust to settle and that public interest in the case will not dampen due to his chosen career path and world fan base. Publicity, after all, makes and breaks a musicians career. So while he clamored after it in order to drum up sales – he cannot simply make it go away.
With any hope the Judge presiding over the case will throw the postponement request out and we can finally put this one to rest.
