No Minor Problems for R. Kelly

R. Kelly isn't having girl trouble. Literally.
A rep for the R&B star has vehemently denied a National Enquirer report that Kelly's home had been searched by Chicago-area police as part of their hunt for a missing 17-year-old girl.
"A wildly exaggerated and inaccurate report has been circulating on the Internet that Olympia Fields police showed up at R. Kelly's house with a search warrant just before the singer left for his three-week concert tour in Africa last month and then searched the place looking for a missing 17-year-old girl," rep Allan Mayer said in a statement.
"This is completely false. No police ever showed up at Kelly's house with a search warrant nor was his house ever searched. It is also not true, as the unsubstantiated report claimed, that any such girl ever stayed overnight in Kelly's house or that she had been there but left shortly before some mythical police search."
Meanwhile, the teen has since been located and the Olympia Fields Police Department says that it has been fielding calls for three days about the bogus story.
Kelly is not involved in any investigation, authorities said.
Good thing. The "Trapped in the Closet" artist was acquitted on child-pornography charges involving a 13-year-old girl barely a year ago.
