A woman filed a lawsuit against R. Kelly, alleging that the singer sexually assaulted her, locked her in rooms to punish her for failing to please him and infected her with herpes.
The suit, filed in New York Supreme Court, states allegations of sexual battery, fraud and false imprisonment.
The woman, named Faith Rodgers, claimed that she was in a relationship with Kelly and that they met in March 2017, when she was 19 years old, after a performance in San Antonio, a city in Texas.
She went ahead to say that Kelly, routinely abused her "mentally, sexually and verbally," adding that he would video-record her against her will "submitting to deviant and compromising sexual contact.
During their first sexual encounter, Rodgers said she told Kelly she was "not ready to have sex," but that he disregarded her and engaged in "non-permissive, painful and abusive sex."
She said she only learned later that Kelly had herpes, and that she had been infected.
Rodgers is scheduled to appear Tuesday on CBS to discuss the allegations, which were first leveled in a criminal complaint to Dallas Police last month.
The new claims from Rodgers are just the latest in long list of sexual abuse allegations against the Chicago singer. All of the claims have recently led Spotify, Apple Music and Pandora to remove Kelly's music from its promoted playlists.
