Explosive claims were madeduring an altercationbetweenR. Kelly‘s girlfriends at the singer’s Trump Tower condo in Chicago on Wednesday.
At one point, as the pair can be seen yelling at one another inside the condo, Clary’s phone is jostled and falls to the ground as she yells off screen, “You sleeping with me as a minor” before a scream is heard and other people are heard breaking up the fight.
Clary seemed to repeat the allegation to responding officers in another video.
Explaining what happened during the incident, Clary claimed that the altercation began after Savage came to the residence with another woman, whom Clary described as a “handler.”
“She just came to get [Kelly’s] awards, and his Grammys and stuff, and after that, she starts saying that I’m so wrong and this and that,” Clary says of Savage on the video of her conversation with police. “And I told her, ‘Joycelyn you’re going to jail. You slept with a minor, that minor was me. You did it multiple times, over and over again.’ ” Afterwards, Clary claimed that’s when Savage began “attacking me.”
The incident occurred on Kelly’s 53rd birthday.
