(Chicago, IL) — Lawyer Michael Avenatti claims to have a sex tape of R&B singer R. Kelly and a 14-year-old girl. CNN announced today it was made aware of the tape by Avenatti and has viewed it. CNN says the girl refers to herself as 14-years-old several times while engaging in sexual acts. Avenatti is representing a man he calls a whistleblower against Kelly. The whistleblower allegedly knows the identity of the young girl in the video and R.Kelly. The tape was handed over to the Cook County State’s Attorney’s Office in Chicago last weekend. Lawyers for the singer say they haven’t been made aware of the video and have not been contacted by authorities about it.
