Are R Kelly and Jocelyn Savage Together?
R. Kelly’s extensive interview with CBS This Morning’s Gayle King took another turn.
Firstly, he admits that he is with both Jocelyn and Azriel. However he says it feels like they are “almost” his girlfriends.
I love em, and it’s like almost… it’s almost like they my girlfriends. You know, we have, a relationship. It’s real.
And I know guys… I’ve known guys all my life to have five, six women so don’t go there on me.
I don’t look at much younger than me; I just look at legal.
Things get tense once more when Gayle asks about Azriel. R. Kelly says he is seeing her.
Right now?
I’m seeing her. She’s 21; I’m seeing her.
When asked if he slept with her under age, R. Kelly passionately denied this and then claimed her parents wanted Azriel to sleep with him.
Absolutely not!
Although, her parents wanted me to [have s*x with her].
What kind of father, what kind of mother, will sell they daughter to a man?
How come it was okay for me then to see them, until they wasn’t seeing no money from it?
Why would you take your daughter [to see me]? If I were gonna take my daughter and she’s nineteen years-old, to a 49 year-old icon, whatever, celebrity or R. Kelly concert, or whoever it is… I’m not gonna put her on the stage and leave her. Imma take her to the concert. There father’s knows more and is more into my music then they do.
At this point, a perplexed Gayle asked Robert if Azriel and Jocelyn’s parents “handed” them over to him and he passionately said yes.
Absolutely! Is this camera on?
Azriel and Jocelyn’s parents respond.
After this interview dropped, the attorneys for Azriel and Jocelyn’s parents quickly pounced. Attorney Michael Avenatti tweeted a statement from Azriel’s parents. They vehemently deny giving and selling their daughter to the singer.

After the press conference, cameras rolled when Gerald Griggs set up a phone call between Jocelyn and her family.
