[ APPLAUSE ] >>> YOU'RE WATCHING A CBS NEWS
SPECIAL. I AM YOUR HOST, GAYLE KING.
AND THIS IS PART THREE OF MY INTERVIEW WITH R & B STAR ROBERT
KELLEY. ALSO KNOWN AS R. KELLY.
ALSO KNOWN AS INDIVIDUAL WHO NUMBER ONE'S.
THANK YOU FOR BEING HERE ROBERT. >> THANK YOU FOR HAVING ME AND
PLEASE JUST CALL ME VICTIM. >> I AM NOT GOING TO DO THAT.
I GUESS MY FIRST QUESTION FOR YOU, ROBERT IS, WHY EXACTLY ARE
YOU DOING THIS INTERVIEW? >> BECAUSE PEOPLE THINK I'M SOME
KIND OF A MONSTER. I'M HERE TO REMOVE ALL OF THAT.
MY LAWYER WAS TELLING ME NO. BUT MY EGO.
MY EGO WAS TELLING ME YES. >> ROBERT.
>> PLEASE CALL ME VICTIM. >> NO.
TELL ME SOME OF THE THINGS THAT PEOPLE ARE SAYING ABOUT YOU?
>> THAT I HAVE A HAREM OF YOUNG GIRLS AND I STARTED A -- WHAT'S
THE WORD? IT STARTS WITH A Q.
>> YOU MEAN CULT? >> YEAH, THAT'S IT.
>> RIGHT, AND WHY DO YOU THINK PEOPLE ARE SAYING THAT ABOUT
YOU? >> PROBABLY BECAUSE IT LOOKS
LIKE I HAVE A HAREM OF YOUNG GIRLS AND I STARTED A CULT.
LOOK, I MADE A LOT OF MISTAKES IN MY LIFE, MAYBE I CAN'T READ
OR WRITE OR MATH. I'M STILL A PERSON.
I PUT ON MY PANTS ONE SLEEVE AT A TIME JUST LIKE EVERYBODY ELSE.
>> WHAT ABOUT THE LIFETIME DOCUSERIES THAT INTERVIEWED
NUMEROUS WOMEN, FAMILY MEMBERS AND YOUR FORMER TOUR MANAGER,
ALL SAYING THE SAME THINGS. >> IT'S 10:00 IN THE MORNING.
AND I'M TALKING TO OPRAH'S FRIEND.
♪ IF I CAN JUST GET THROUGH THIS, EVERYBODY'S GONNA LOVE ME
AGAIN ♪ >> ROBERT.
THE DOCU-SERIES. >> OH, RIGHT.
THESE PEOPLE MADE A SIX-PART DOCUMENTARY ABOUT ME, SIX.
THAT'S ALMOST TEN. AND NOT ONE OF THEM SAID A NICE
THING ABOUT ME. THEY MADE IT SEEM LIKE I WAS THE
DEVIL. I'M NOT THE DEVIL.
AND EVEN IF I WAS, YOU CAN'T THINK OF ONE NICE THING TO SAY
ABOUT THE DEVIL? [ LAUGHTER ]
I CAN. NICE HORNS.
GIVES GOOD ADVICE. >> SO WHY DO YOU THINK PEOPLE
ARE MAKING THESE LIES UP ABOUT YOU?
>> FOR MONEY, OBVIOUSLY. I'M A VERY RICH MAN.
AND PEOPLE ARE ALWAYS TRYING TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF ME.
>> WELL, IF YOU'RE SO RICH, WHY DID IT TAKE SO LONG TO PAY
160,000 YOU OWE BACK IN CHILD SUPPORT?
♪ DAMN, THAT'S A GOOD QUESTION I WASN'T EXPECTING THAT ♪
♪ NOW I HAVE TO SWITCH DIRECTIONS AND GET SOME SYMPATHY
BACK ♪ >> BECAUSE I'M A VERY POOR MAN.
>> BUT ROBERT. >> VICTIM.
>> NO. YOU SOLD MILLIONS OF RECORDS AND
MADE MILLIONS OF DOLLARS. >> MORE THAN MILLIONS,
THOUSANDS. >> MILLIONS IS MORE THAN
THOUSANDS, ROBERT. >> OKAY, MY BAD.
>> SO WHAT HAPPENED TO ALL THE MONEY?
>> I DON'T KNOW. ASK MY -- WHO'S THE GUY YOU PAY
TO WATCH ALL YOUR MONEY? IT STARTS WITH A Q.
>> YOUR ACCOUNTANT? >> NO, MY COUSIN REGGIE, THAT'S
IT. YOU KNOW WHAT, THIS IS ALL GREAT
STUFF. BUT MAYBE WE SHOULD SAVE SOME OF
IT FOR THE INTERVIEW. >> WHAT ARE YOU TALKING ABOUT?
THIS IS THE INTERVIEW. >> FOR REAL?
THEN WHERE ARE THE CAMERAS. >> THERE'S LITERALLY ONE RIGHT
IN FRONT OF YOU. >> YOU ALL JUST KEEP YOUR CAMERA
OUT IN THE OPEN LIKE THAT? Y'ALL SOME FREAKS?
>> JUST TELL ME WHY ALL THOSE WOMEN WOULD SAY THE SAME THINGS
ABOUT YOU IF THEY WEREN'T TRUE? >> YOU CAN START A RUMOR ABOUT
ANY CELEBRITY JUST LIKE THAT. ALL YOU GOT TO DO IS PUSH A
BUTTON ON YOUR PHONE AND SAY R. KELLY DID THIS TO ME.
AND THEN ATTACH A VIDEO OF ME DOING THAT THING, AND PEOPLE
WILL BELIEVE YOU. IT'S SCARY.
[ LAUGHTER ] >> I REALLY WANT TO LAUGH RIGHT
NOW. BUT I CAN'T TELL IF THIS
INTERVIEW IS A PRANK ON YOU OR A PRANK ON ME.
♪ THIS INTERVIEW IS GOING GREAT ♪
♪ OPRAH'S FRIEND THINKS I'M INNOCENT ♪
>> ROBERT. ♪ I SHOULD BE A LAWYER OR MAYBE
I SHOULD RUN FOR PRESIDENT ♪ >> STOP SINGING.
>> OH, YOU CAN HEAR THAT? [ LAUGHTER ]
>> YES, YES. NOW, TELL ME WHY WERE YOU
HANGING OUT AT McDONALD'S? >> OKAY, FIRST OF ALL, I DID NOT
GO TO A McDONALD'S. >> BOY, WE SAW YOU AT
McDONALD'S. >> OKAY, FINE, I LOVE
McDONALD'S. IT'S MY FAVORITE RESTAURANT IN
THE WORLD. THEY GOT THAT BURGER THAT I
LIKE, WHAT'S IT CALLED? STARTS WITH A Q.
>> BIG MACS? >> YEAH, THAT'S IT.
>> LOOK, I'M JUST GOING TO ASK YOU PLAINLY, HAVE YOU EVER HELD
WOMEN AGAINST THEIR WILL? >> WHY WOULD I DO THAT?
THAT WOULD BE STUPID. HOW STUPID WOULD IT BE FOR ME,
R. KELLY, WITH ALL THE CRAZY LEGAL THINGS I'VE DONE IN MY
PAST, ON TAPE AND GOTTEN AWAY WITH, SCOTT FREE, TO DO IT
AGAIN? HOW STUPID DO YOU THINK I AM?
IS THIS A CAMERA? >> NO, NO.
THAT'S A PLANT. >> OKAY, GUYS, THINK FOR A
MINUTE. USE YOUR BRAINS.
WHY WOULD I DO THESE THINGS? FOR 30 YEARS.
