The parents of the late singer Aaliyah have spoken out against one of the claims made in the “Surviving R Kelly” documentary. In the documentary a back-up singer, Jovante Cunningham, stated that while on a moving tour bus in 1995, the bedroom door accidentally flew open and revealed 27-year-old R Kelly illegally having sex with underage 15-year-old Aaliyah. Cunningham stated, “So it just so happened we were all laying in our bunks and the curtains are open, everybody’s communicating, laughing…When the [room] door flew open on the bus. Robert was having sex with Aaliyah.”

Aaliyah’s mother, Diane Haughton stated of the claim, “The woman and so-called back up singer in the forthcoming Surviving… documentary that describes seeing, meeting or ever breathing the same air as my daughter, Aaliyah, is lying and a liar. My husband and I were always on tour with her and at interviews and every place she went throughout her entire career. Whoever this woman is, I have never seen her before anywhere on planet earth, until now.”

“These lies and fabrications cannot be tolerated and allowed to be spewed from the forked tongues of saboteurs of Aaliyah’s legacy. Shame on all those involved in this project who thought it kosher to drag Aaliyah’s name into a situation that has nothing to do with her today. Once again this will not be tolerated.”

The fact remains R Kelly illegally married Aaliyah in Chicago when she was 15 and he 27. MTV News and Vibe Magazine obtained and published the marriage certificate in 1995. Aaliyah’s parents had the marriage annulled 1-year later in Michigan, which is the standard waiting time. It is proof they had a sexual relationship.

Keyaira Boone Jan, 03, 2019 - Aaliyah’s mother, Diane Haughton, is passionately refuting statements made by former R. Kelly backup singer Jovante Cunningham in the Surviving R. Kelly docuseries, which premieres Thursday. In a preview released Wednesday, Cunningham claims that she saw R. Kelly and his then-underage protege having sex on a tour bus. She said that because the space on a tour bus is limited there is little opportunity for privacy, leading her to witness their alleged sexual contact. Aaliyah’s mother also hinted at taking legal action against those she perceives as actively sullying her daughter’s name…
