You shouldn't know Reshona Landfair's name.
She was the 14yrold at the center of the infamous R. Kelly tape, unfairly thrust into the spotlight and turned into a punch line.
I spent an afternoon with Reshona in her first-ever interview to talk about her new poignant memoir.

EXCLUSIVE: For 25 years, Reshona Landfair was known as Jane Doe in R. Kelly’s infamous tape. In her first-ever interview before her memoir release, she reclaims her name.
“I had to take ownership. I was not just the ‘R. Kelly girl.'”
