Kelis Scores Big In Court; Nas To Pay Up

Published: Tuesday 13th Apr 2010 by Sam

Rapper Nas’ wallet will no doubt be feeling lighter today, following the latest ruling in his divorce settlement with ex Kelis.

TMZ report that documents filed in L.A. County Superior Court reveal that the 36 year old star has to immediately pay a sum of $47,249.42 in back-child support and $40,454 in back spousal support to the ‘Milkshake’ singer.

Worse still, the presiding judge further ordered Nas to pay $10,000 a month in spousal support until he pays off the $299,015.50 total he owes Kelis.

Wait there’s more…

Nas also has to pay 90% of Kelis’ legal fees to the tune of $155,787.28, as well as $48,549.83 to cover Kelis’ accounting expenses.

Legal analysts suggest that the rapper could have avoided such financial blows had he settled from the jump; particularly considering the fact that Kelis was repped by hotshot divorce attorney Laura Wasser.

    Nas, TAKE YOUR SONG; go raise him YOURSELF!! Kelis is, as-wild-as they come, and an “Unfit Mother herself!”
    …But there’s always, “examples” to follow, no? …Robert Blake and ….OJ?!?!?!
    …I’m just sayin’, Nas ….I’m just sayin’…. you have many-a-fans/devotees who think-the-WORLD of you. You know HOW to say, what HAS to be said, WITHOUTsaying what NEEDS to be said!
    …I wonder how THAT child will feel, when he grows up, and THEN comes to find out, that his Mother, had ONLY brought HIM into THIS world as a Meal-Ticket? ….That’s gonna be some str8 “Anthony Perkins starring in Psycho”-drama!

    X,Y,”and Z” — OUT!

    This is what happens to men who cheat (allegedly) on there wives—she left him in the poor house.

    In other news: Why are people reporting on this kind of crap?

    She has a new album out called Flesh Tones, and she is an amazing artist. I can give a damn about her personal life.

    That’s exactly why Blogs annoy me. The mainstream media can be invasive and annoying, but blogs are just on another level. What are you going to do next? Look into people’s poop and figure out what meal they had the day before?

    F*** outta here!

    @AuntJackie

    Artists personal life can sometimes overshadow the reason we fell in love with them in the first place…100% with you on that…

    Let’s keep it real……..Nas was given the chance to settle at the beginning.

    He didn’t want to do that.

    What Kelis asked for in the beginning was nothing close to what he is paying now.

    @ Bra ‘Nu

    Re-read the comment F***-Face

    In parenthesis I typed allegedly. That means, for people like you who don’t know basic, adult vocabulary words, it was only an accusation. If he did—that’s what he gets. Kelis has alleged that he cheated. But no one knows that for sure, and that’s why i put ALLEGEDLY.

    Don’t come at me talking out of the side of your neck, it is you who needs to sit down, and who got ‘sat down’.

    @Lovinmybreezy

    Yeah, it’s kind of sad! Music artists really don’t have any mystique or privacy anymore. Knowing all the personal crap ruins it!

  14. YouPutTheLimeInTheCoconut April 13, 2010

    Pass go and collect $500,000+ dollars, Kelis. If only your man took care of his s*** from the get go. Oh well.

  17. roneyyvee April 13, 2010

    i can’t help but view kelis as a gold digging b**** for this. i refuse support her, until/unless i find out that nas treated her horrible enough for her to do something so crazy.

    What a price to pay, but if you play you pay
    Cause women of the world they got smart today
    They flash a smile and profile
    a pucker with a strut
    try to move in
    knock the boots
    and got stuck, with alimony payments
    time to meet judge wapner
    you try to flip and cut, but she smiles cause she gotcha
    You get a flashback to wedding, when you vowed the vow
    Said the two deadly words
    I do
    but look now, you lost the house
    the car
    eatin tv dinners in a one bedroom apartment
    boy you picked a winner
    but what goes around, comes around
    that’s why she wheels the benz
    and you ride greyhound
    Oh, just your luck, they on strike
    Take off the wedding band, put out the thumb, time to hitch-hike
    And the more you walk the pain from your corns get bigger
    (now you know)
    Not to mess with a gold digger…
