R. Kelly’s longtime assistant testified today that the R&B superstar was so paranoid, he once asked her to change into a robe to prove she wasn't wearing a wire.
The Grammy-winning, multiplatinum-selling singer has denied accusations that he led a criminal enterprise that sexually exploited women, girls and even boys during a 30-year career highlighted by his anthem “I Believe I Can Fly.” His lawyers have portrayed his accusers as groupies who are lying about their relationships with him.
Copeland’s testimony revealed new details about Kelly’s unusual routines and the degree to which he relied upon his inner circle. She said he had no control over his own bank account and had “no idea where his royalties were going.”What Is Jail Like For R. Kelly During Sex Crimes Trial?

The singer, born Robert Sylvester Kelly, has trouble reading and writing and would have Copeland draft his text messages before the advent of voice-to-text applications. Kelly lived a nocturnal lifestyle in which he often didn’t start his day until 5 p.m., played basketball at midnight and remained in the recording studio until the sun came up, Copeland said.
