R. Kelly just got hit with more sex crime charges … this time in Minnesota, where prosecutors say the disgraced singer once paid a teenage girl to have sexual contact with him in his hotel room.
According to prosecutors, the alleged incident went down on July 11, 2001 in Minneapolis … and they say the alleged victim was between the ages of 16 and 17.
Hennepin County Attorney Mike Freeman says the alleged victim initially approached Kelly seeking an autograph, and claims Kelly paid her $200 to get naked and engage in sex acts with him.
Prosecutors are charging Kelly with two sex crimes … engaging in prostitution with someone under 18, and hiring/offering/agreeing to hire someone for sexual contact.
The alleged victim is being represented by Gloria Allred.
