Little Mix’s Jesy Neslon Is Receiving Major Backlash For Posting Video Of Her Singing An R Kelly Song

Little Mix star Jesy Nelson has come in for some serious criticism after she posted a video to Instagram of her and friends singing an R Kelly song.

Singer R Kelly has been the subject of a LifeTime documentary that aired this week, in which he has been accused of sexual assault, imprisonment and having sexual relationships with underage girls  – claims which he denies in full.

However, following the documentary, stars have come out in force to publicly distance themselves from the rapper, with Lady Gaga revealing she was revoking her collaboration with Kelly from circulation.

But now, 27-year-old Jesy has angered many of her fans by posting the video singing the song Ignition to her over 4.8 million followers, which she has since deleted.
