R. Kelly gave a 28-second performance and spent about half an hour more hobnobbing with fans who paid $50 to $100 to see him at a club in the Illinois capital of Springfield.

FILE - In this March 22, 2019 file photo, R. Kelly walks with attorneys and supporters into the Leighton Criminal Courthouse in Chicago. Kelly gave a 28-second performance and spent about half an hour more hobnobbing with fans who paid $50 to $100 to see him at a club in the Illinois capital of Springfield. The R&B singer posted a video on his Instagram page hours before the early Sunday, April 7 performance at the Dirty South Lounge.

The R&B singer posted a video on his Instagram page hours before the early Sunday performance at the Dirty South Lounge. In the video, Kelly calls on the media to take it easy on him, saying he needs to perform in order to make money amid the sexual abuse case he faces. TV stations WICS and WRSP report that about 100 people were at the 450-person-capacity club to see Kelly, who arrived at 1:30 a.m. There was a $100 entrance fee, which was lowered to $50 once Kelly arrived.

Kelly thanked supporters, sang a line from one of his songs for 28 seconds and spent about 35 minutes taking selfies and conversing with fans. The stations report that some fans said it wasn't worth the $100 and that they wouldn't pay again. Fans also said they separate the accusations from the "artist."

Hobknobbing with unwillingness

Anybody who paid to go see R Kelly deserves to be robbed of their $100.

Oh... How the Mighty have Fallen...

Lucrative.

Performed for 28 seconds. He didn’t last that long when he assaulted those girls.

I still love R.Kelly! He remains one of the greatest musician ever! legend

Seriously?!

Gross.

Why would anyone want to see R.Kelly?!?

Who are those 2 people who paid to hobnob?

Kelly is a cleaned up Super Fly.

Using the word 'hobnobbing' and R.Kelly in the same sentence is wild.
