The teens friend, Tiffany, brought her to a party at Kellys Chicago apartment.
At one point, Kelly went into another room.
In time, the young ladies would join him.
All of us, one by one, all of the young ladies …
When Angela walked in, there were three other young ladies.
One was disrobing and another was taking off her shirt.
He asked me to climb on top of him, Angela said.
I paused for a moment.
I was a little startled.
But she decided to do as he asked me to do.
The defendant asked me to straddle him and to ride him.
Kelly said he didnt have a condom, but Angela told him that she did.
After that, I proceeded to put the condom on the gentleman and straddled him.
Before Angela left the apartment that evening, Kelly invited her and Tiffany back the next day.
Angela said she went on to hang out with Kelly every day for quite a few years.
They had sexual encounters on multiple occasions when she was a minor, she said.
She worked as a backup dancer on one of Kellys tours around 1992 or 1993.
At the time, Angela and two friends were in a singing group called Second Chapter.
During her testimony, prosecution showed Angela a photo of Aaliyah, projected on a screen.
They asked: Did she know who this person was?
Had she met her?
That is Aaliyah Dana Haughton, Angela said.
Yes, I have.
Angela said that she met Aaliyah in 1992.
Kelly had told her that Aaliyah was the next up-and-coming artist, the next hottest wave out of Detroit.
Kelly introduced them on Aaliyahs 13th birthday.
The singer was born on January 16, 1979.
He told her that we were going to be her background [singers] as well, Angela recalled.
Aaliyah wound up coming along on the tour but did not perform.
She was seeing what traveling road life was like, Angela recalled.
She was his protegee … getting her feet wet.
Angela said that Kelly had explosive reactions when the girls didnt follow his instructions.
Angela claimed to have witnessed Kelly sexually abuse Aaliyah on the tour bus.
Angela and the other female went toward the back of Kellys tour bus, to his bedroom.
Angela opened the door a crack.
I saw Robert and Aaliyah in a sexual situation, she said.
It appeared that he had his head in between her legs and was giving her oral sex.
Aaliyah was sitting up, on a seat, and Kelly was on his knees.
I closed the door abruptly and pushed the girl behind me away from the door.
She said that she did not talk to Kelly about what she had seen.
Angela said she stopped working for Kelly in the mid-1990s.
Kelly is charged in New York with racketeering and sex crimes.
