Alia's Settlement With the NDAs

R. Kelly was sued for $10 million by Tiffany Hawkins, a high school student with ambitions for a music career. She claims she met Kelly when he talked to her choir class. Neither R. Kelly nor Alia have ever provided more detail about what went down or the reasoning behind that weird settlement. In 1997, Alia filed to expunge the marriage certificate from the County Court Records. He doesn't even mention her name once in his autobiography, Sola Coaster.
