According to one of the assault survivors of infamous singer R. Kelly, she found the singer's adult video with Aaliyah, which led him to lash out at her and push her down a flight of stairs.
The last installment of the acclaimed documentary series "Surviving R. Kelly" was released, and it included the testimony of one of the women the singer assaulted.
Back when R. Kelly was relevant as a glorious R&B singer, he invited a woman to his home in 1993. The woman, Ebonié Doyle, shared how her relationship with the singer turned sour when she came across something he was hiding.
"I was 16 years old when I met Rob in 1993," she began. "My friends and I went to a show, and he was there with other artists, and I just remember his voice was just amazing. After the show, my girlfriend and I were waiting outside, we were ready to go to our cars, and a limousine pulls up."
Despite being a minor, Kelly invited her to his hotel room and they eventually grew quite close, which infuriated Doyle's mother, who eventually kicked her out for seeing the man a decade older than her at that time.
Doyle moved in with Kelly and it was then that he slowly showed his true colors to her.

The Tape
According to reports, Doyle found an intimate tape of Kelly and Aaliyah in his home, which ended in an argument and a fight broke out between Doyle and the singer.
"I see this basket full of tapes, and I'm like, 'Well, maybe I'll just grab one of these tapes, and let me go in the other rooms and see if there's a VHS so I can watch a movie,' because I was bored," she recounted.
"That's when I discovered that he'd been lying to me about Aaliyah. The tape that I put in was of him and Aaliyah together. What I saw on that tape was he and Aaliyah were intimate. They were on the tour bus, and everything that I had asked him was confirmed on the tape."
Doyle alleged that Kelly pushed her down a flight of stairs during their fight. She recalled the traumatizing event with teary eyes: "That shake sent me down flights of stairs, and I just laid there. I just froze. That was the moment where I realized [how] to pick and choose my battles."
Despite the hurt she went through, she added that she wishes that Kelly would seek help, noting "he's a person, he just does bad things. Does that make [sense]?"
