Joann Kelly, daughter of singer R. Kelly, didn’t have too much to say when asked about the controversy surrounding her father.
After being approached by TMZ in Atlanta, Joann (who also goes by the stage name Buku) confessed that she didn’t “have much of a comment.” She later revealed the entire ordeal is “hard” and added that she feels “terrible” about what’s going on with her father.
“It’s very close to my heart. It’s just hard ’cause it’s family matters. But overall, it’s hard. I try not to speak about it too much, but it is what it is. I feel terrible,” she said.
Joann appeared to pause a bit when asked if she’s close with her father. She eventually answered the question by stating “we’re family. We’re gonna deal with each other.”

Following last July’s release of a Buzzfeed story about R. Kelly allegedly running a sex cult, accusations against the famed R&B star have been fairly frequent.
Most recently, a woman who was once in a relationship with Kelly and who was allegedly groomed to be in his sex cult claimed he knowingly gave her an STD.
Authorities in Texas are currently investigating the matter.
R. Kelly has denied all accusations of sexual misconduct.
