Azriel Clary Admits To Lying About ‘Everything’ In Previous R. Kelly Interviews
Azriel Clary is back in the hot seat with Gayle King on CBS This Morning and this time she has an entirely different story to her last appearance on the show with R. Kelly’s other girlfriend Joycelyn Savage.
Kelly who was recently found guilty allegedly coerced the girls in their previous interview. In her recent interview with CBS Clary admits to lying about everything.
“He told us to be angry and be upset and ‘she’s gonna try to do this,’ and so we were, we came in angry,” said Clary, 23. “I was scared because I was like, ‘I don’t want the world to see me this way,’ you know? I’m loving, I’m caring, I’m compassionate, and no one got to see that side of me.”
“Before that interview, he had us practicing every single day, answering questions … and if he didn’t like our answers, he would tell us exactly what to say and how to say it,” she recalled.
Clary reveals that Kelly no longer has control over her and she needs to also take accountability.
“Even I have to take accountability for my actions. It’s okay to reevaluate your life. It is okay to change your mind,” Clary added. “You are never too old to wake up and say, ‘Hey, I thought this was good for me, but it’s actually not.’ So I feel like that’s why it was important for me to come back here and see you again, because it is okay to change your mind. It is okay to apologize and forgive yourself, more importantly. That’s really what I had to do.”
The disgraced singer has been in jail since 019 and has maintained his innocence since.
