Kelly was reportedly charged with multiple counts of sexual abuse in Illinois on Friday.

Citing court records, the Chicago Sun-Times reported that Kelly faces 10 counts of aggravated criminal sexual abuse in Cook County.

A laywer for Kelly said there was no evidence to support the accusations contained in the documentary.

The multi-platinum recording artist has for years faced accusations of sexual misconduct and even running an abusive sex cult.
