Just when it seems R. Kelly can’t possibly take any more losses, he manages to lose bigger.
In the latest blow to the disgraced singer’s legal situation, his crisis manager Darrell Johnson has resigned.
Johnson made the public announcement Monday (July 22), stating “I step down as crisis manager for personal reasons. Mr. Kelly is in good hands with Mr. Greenberg,” Johnson noted, referring to criminal defense attorney Steve Greenberg, who the singer’s legal team in Chicago.
Earlier the same day, Johnson appeared on CBS This Morning, noting to co-host Gayle King that he wouldn’t be willing to leave his daughter alone with anyone accused of the very same crimes as Kelly.
On Tuesday (July 23), R. Kelly crisis manager Darrell Johnson said he wouldn’t leave his daughter “with an accused pedophile."
Tonight, he told CBS he’s no longer working for Kelly: “I step down as crisis manager for personal reasons. Mr. Kelly is in good hands with Mr. Greenberg!”
“I would not leave my daughter with anyone that’s accused of being a pedophile. I would not,” he stated twice during the interview— the second time slightly more aggressively as King attempted to point out the apparent contradiction of taking on Kelly as a client in the first place.
Despite stepping away, and noting his distaste for pedophilia, he still seemed to suggest that Kelly — who he referred to as a “normal person” — may not be the slam dunk it appears to be.
“I haven’t seen anything that would cause me to be suspicious. He will have his day in court … and they’ll have to bring the evidence,” Johnson said.
Kelly faces numerous federal charges related to sex crimes. He was denied bail during a July 16 court appearance and is currently in jail. He maintained his innocence and pleaded not guilty.

Stop with the madness you are taking a negative side because some media started this the media dictate to you what to think and what to do now the Catholic Church no one is saying anything all of the so-called Pale Man white man molest little boys from the age of five to 10 R Kelly is guilty of having sex with willing participant from 19 and over now if they’re younger they lied he’s not guilty of anything only the public is calling him guilty not the court
You can spray paint a turd any color you want but it’s still a turd. Wrong is wrong regardless of race.
True!!!
But what if you’re black and say you dindunuffin? Are you still wrong?
That’s like saying what if you’re white and say “ionlikegat… spit..ting”. Stop generalizing.
Guess you’re a pedophile too
19 and over? Yea that little 14 year old girl he pissed on while on video was absolutlely 19 and all those other girls over the years he has had history with were 19 dude people like you need to get your brain examined
R.Kelly doesn’t need a crisis manager he needs a rope and a high enough place to jump off of.
How can you make a comment like this and you would never say anything against the Catholic Church and any of the real criminals who commit crimes R Kelly is not a pedifier someone who molest little boys and little girls from the age of 2 to 5 not teenagers R Kelly is guilty of having sex by the public he’s not guilty in the court only reason you’re treating him this way because he is a so-called black man you would never say that against so called pale man
No fuck those priests too they all deserve to hang by their so called testicles and have some rusty nail beds below so when the nuts give and tear off they fall to there deaths painfuly nothing to do with black or white wanna see r kelly hang for what he has done and would have loved to seen elvis get the same for how he was with teenage girls back in the day and would love to see those priests meet a firing squad all aiming at their crotches again i repeat fuck all people who do shit like r kelly does and fuck little bitches like you who cry and say everythings race related get the fuck over it
He outta here fighting for his life…
R.Kelly has used his stardom to capture, turn out and disrespect young women for years. In 2009, I saw his Entourage in action as a grown man sought after my daughter to invite her to an “after party” following a concert in South Georgia.
We went to the room which was full of younger teenaged girls who were estatic about meeting him. I decided to take my daughter’s hand and vacate. With this testimonial, it is evident that efforts were made to SEEK AFTER young impressionable girls to use for sexual gain.
Years later, R. KELLY must face his wrath for the continuous misuse if black women. Hopefully, all others like him will learn from his actions.
They paid this dude off. Someone is out to destroy R Kelly. I don’t agree with what he does but him fu@king barely legal teenagers is not paedophilia when we all know what the higher ups are doing
Cmon fam. Enough with the conspiracies.Only person our to destroy R Kelly is R Kelly. Dude admitted to it on live TV “Define what you mean by young girls” Cmon man. Just really.
Damn. He’s what made shit interesting. If Kelly gets free, he’ll have a hell of a list of muthafuckas that betrayed him on his payback list. Free Kells you ho’s
I hope they free him and let your daughter sister or cousin spend a few weeks with him
Its cause he signed an NDA prior to working for r kelly and has to watch what he says or kelly will put him his wife and daughter out on the streets for violating the NDA just like he does to all the women hes tortured and to all his staffers which is why shits so quite…good ol example of hollywood life you can fuck children treat people like living fuck bags as long as you got money and intimidate anyone who could tell the world and keep being “the best” fuck celebrities
while he out here joking and dissing his ass need to be in prison right there with him. Enabling snake ass
Gayle King is a devil. Agent of chaos in the hand of the white man.
This man has stolen thousands of dollars from my family. He is an opportunist, a con artist, and extremely manipulative.
