KEY POINTS:
The wife of a Baptist preacher from R Kelly's hometown of Chicago, a business executive and a telecommunications company employee were the first three jurors chosen for the R&B superstar's child pornography trial.
The executive, a middle-aged man, called child pornography "the lowest of the low" during questioning, but he said he felt he could give a fair trial to the 41-year-old Kelly, who is accused of videotaping himself having sex with a girl as young as 13.
Kelly, known for sexually charged hits like Bump N' Grind, has pleaded not guilty.
The alleged victim, now 23, says it was not her on the videotape.
Court officials have said questioning and selection from the 150 potential jurors is expected to take about a week.
