R. Kelly - Minister Testifies?

A surprise witness takes the stand during the R. Kelly trial and it's no one either than the ordained minister who was fiscally responsible for the secret marriage between Kelly and his then bride, the late and great Aaliyah. Nathan Edmond is the minister's name and he's 73 years old.

The testimony took place on what would had been the 27th wedding anniversary; the charges against R. Kelly stem from claims of racketeering charges. Prosecutors allege a member of the entourage bribed a local official to create a fake ID. The marriage technically was not under consent as Aaliyah was 15 (too young to be married under legal law as it states a person must be 18 years or above to get married).

The marriage faced annulment after her parents, Mr. and Mrs. Haughton, found out about it. R. Kelly pleaded not guilty on racketeering. Edmond said "I didn't think it was anybody special I didn't understand it at all".

The two were married inside of the hotel in Rosemont Illinois by the minister; Edmond's testimony was by virtual view and chose not to make a physical appearance. The trial on R. Kelly still continues.

Michelle Rose Exclusive Interview

Q: What's it like growing up in Mpls? Does the city have interesting stories about Prince? A: I only lived in Minneapolis until I was three, but I have fond memories of it. Even now that I live in a suburb of Minneapolis, I still feel like I'm a part of Minneapolis. I think a lot of Minnesotans have "Minneapolis Pride", even if they don't live in Minneapolis. Minneapolis has so many fun things to see and do, and the arts are very important here, with so many theaters and live shows. Prince put us on the map for music. I hear Prince stories everywhere I go in Minnesota. I've met so many people who were associated with Prince, including one of his dancers, and even a former Paisley Park employee working as a cashier at the local grocery store, so I've heard many Prince stories. I wish I could've been a Chanhassen resident when Prince was still alive, because I know that many Chanhassen residents saw him casually riding his bike around

My uncle lived with us back in Ohio then and he played the drums. I grew up with a Rock band practicing in my basement. I did not know it at the time but this little town I lived in knew how to rock. When did music become your main interest and what lead you to take music so seriously? When I was 13 I saw my first rock concert. It was The kinks (one for the road tour.) It changed me instantly. Suddenly that was the only thing I wanted to do. To this day I'm still doing it. My guitar obsession had just started and I did take some music theory lessons as well. I began learning how to create music or write a song. I recently worked with two clasical Violinist. A Saxsaphone player and a Pianist.
