Female R. Kelly Fans Trying To Post His Bond After He's Unable To Pay

Some of R. Kelly's female fans are reportedly going to great lengths to ensure the disgraced singer is a free man.

According to Chicago Tribune reporter, William Lee, a Chicago court clerk's office has received multiple calls from female fans of Kelly, asking how they can post his bond of $1,000,000, which is really $100,000 as he only has to pay 10% of the total to leave custody. "A court clerk just told me their office was receiving calls from female #RKelly fans wanting to know how to post bail for him," William tweeted on Sunday (February 24). "The love is real, I guess."

As previously reported, Kelly surrendered himself to authorities in Chicago on Saturday (February 23) after being charged with 10 counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse. According to TMZ, "nine of the ten counts involve alleged victims ranging in age from 13 to 16 years old. One of them is the subject of four different counts. There are a total of four alleged victims."

Kelly plead not guilty to all ten counts on Monday (February 25). However, the 52-year-old singer remains in police custody after not being able to post bail. Kelly has reportedly been unable to come up with the $100,000 cash, despite being one of the most successful R&B singers of all time.

As fans know, he's had number of financial problems, including unpaid rent and unpaid child support. Most recently, his attorney Steve Greenberg cited "mismanagement," "hangers-on" and "bad deals" as some of the reasons Kelly "really doesn't have any money" to make his bail, CNN reports. Because of this, he will continue to go back and forth between Cook County Jail and the courthouse, with his next court hearing set for March 22.
