    Calm down it’s not a bad thing to be compare to Janet Jacksom at all. Kelly has always spoken highly of Ms Jackson. The pictures are simple yet beautiful & tasteful. I’m so happy for this woman. Go go go go pick up the album you guys let’s make our girl #1. Also congratulations on reaching 1,000,000 followers last night Kelendria Trene Rowland. —> 🙂

  10. JuanR July 23, 2011

    Go Kelly!

  11. Kellymotivation July 23, 2011

    Kelly hasn’t done s*** to be considered the new Janet Jackson………I don’t know where that nonsense is coming from….but those are def. inspired from Janet Jackson….

    Ciara is the best to be compared to Janet Jackson

    BUT I LOVE THOSE PICTURES

  12. ashleegin July 23, 2011

    now if kelly could wear the same wigs as seen here all the time.

  13. TAYLOR SWIFTS NUMBER 1 FAN July 23, 2011

    But you cant see her p**** or tits.. whats the point? she may aswell just be fully clothed…

  14. israel July 23, 2011

    I bet Kelly Rowland got that phat phat kitty kat.. Already beautiful, but even more s*** naked. Her Playboy cover would make history! I cant stop thinking about the pic with her sitting indian style, and that poo nanny busting open, you know she was “Feelin Herself Right Now” in that pose. All moist and s***!

  15. GangsterA July 23, 2011

    She looks hot her skin is amazing and the album shits love it

  16. I said July 23, 2011

    PUT some clothes of kelly, that won’t help sell ur album.

  17. israel July 23, 2011

    I really believe Kelly Rowland could of been as big as Naomi Campbell or upstage the history Naomi made if she did fashion, magazines, and runways. S

  18. israel July 23, 2011

    ***super model swag

  19. israel July 23, 2011

    @winning ……these album shots are more natural and soft, unlike the glamourous/diva shots she made for the Ms. Kelly album. She went an opposite direction than before.

  20. Thedimplepuppet July 23, 2011

    Isreal!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Boy/Girl Stop! Lmao

  21. beyoncesDaughter July 23, 2011

    thank god, she’s not giving off any Beyonce vibes, like she did her last album cover. Anyway I know it was hard finding the right shot, becuz my Motha has covered everything in the book.

  22. RowlDawg July 23, 2011

    So Kelly is giving off S** Kitten. Beyonce is giving off Boss Diva. What’s left for Michelle to play….the Jesus Freak or Prude Angel, LOL, I kid I kid. Yall know she blocked me on twitter! Psst, anyway, I think she should give us Betty Boop (goofy and naive yet demure and provocatively s***)

  23. Kellymotivation July 23, 2011

    @ROWLDAWG

    LMAO at Kelly blocking you on twitter…..

    What did you do?????

  24. SavT1st July 23, 2011

    yall know Matthew Knowles use to have Destinys Child do tanning beds, I dont know if Kelly Rowland continues doin the *white gurl stuff but something your average gurl cant do is going on with her gorgeous flawless skin? I dont know if its money, or sum special creme found in the Red Sea only celebs can afford, and this girl has no cellulite. *I’m Dead, now can Beyonce die too

  25. mhud July 23, 2011

    @kelly motivation,what is eating you up like this?you are jealous of this beautiful woman no doubt about that.im happy that God has finally exposed you for we kelly rowland fans to know that you aint kelly rowland fans.you are ugly and useless,u need to grow up coz you aint makin sense at all.i love you queen kelly rowland.

  26. SavT1st July 23, 2011

    My last comment was aimed mostly for Michelle Williams, @realmichellew blocked me on twitter. What’s left for Michelle to give us…I say the cartoon character Betty Boo Ba Ba Boop Oop.

  27. muni July 23, 2011

    This woman is so beautiful she is insprired by Janet but she is not copying and she is one of most original aryist of this generation and very versatile with her style.

    She needs few more hits and good album sales and she can be called the new queen of R&B (#YepISaidIt) she doesn’t need to be called Ms Janet Jackson cos she si Ms Kelly Rowland damn!!

    #HereIam best album of 2011 (You still mad)

    #TeamKelly lets make this a #1 album she f****** deserves it!!

  28. Kellymotivation July 23, 2011

    @SAT1ST

    I am one of those who believes Michelle should stick with gospel because it suits her raspy voice best……..She will never make it in the Pop and R&B scene….she won’t sell worth a damn!

  29. KELLY F*CKING ROWLAND July 23, 2011

    **ROLL CALL B******** @Winning………….Its no different from ur life……..Now Sit! @I Said………….W**** have several seats!………..GOODBYE! @KellyMotivation Everytime i come n a KELLY post…….ur ass is throwing shade and saying negative comments about MS. KELLY& I dont wanna here s*** about……..”oh im a fan, im just real with mines………..please B****! U are a bandwagon w****, u secretly dislike KELLY. What kind of fan, say the kind of s***, u say if ur a fan. B****, u are not a fan! So stop with the fakeness! As for KELLY….WHO RUN THIS MUTHA! HA HA HA

  30. Kellymotivation July 23, 2011

    *To the commentator on July 23 at 11:02 am……The best answer to a fool is to keep quiet*

  31. Aaliyah July 23, 2011

    Sorry, but this b**** is still boring. I’m going to need to see her go crazy and let herself go. I mean, she is just so BLAH even though she’s wearing nothing but a tight pair of jeans. This is why Beyonce, Rihanna, Britney and Gaga will always take away her shine – they showcase their personalities through their music and image, and that gets through to the public, and Kelly seems unable to do so. Still after 15 years, I’m still wondering who this girl is. Not hating, I will be listening to her new album and following her this era, but if she doesn’t impress me this time, I’m done. Beyonce is the only reason I even bother, to be honest!

  32. Leo July 23, 2011

    Beautiful woman! She’s got somewhat funny nose tho 🙂

  33. Simba July 23, 2011

    Didn’t T-R-E N-T use this exact same title for this post on his site yesterday? TGJ is stealing again I see.

  34. nice_gurl July 23, 2011

    She has an amazing bod. I like how she kept it simple…it suits her.

  35. KELLY F*CKING ROWLAND July 23, 2011

    @KellyMotivation Girl/Boy or whateva u are……..dont get mad because i exposed ur ass. Who the f*** are u? I dont have to be quiet for no f****** body b****! I called it like i saw it and ur ass is a fake ass bandwagon h**! Like i said…..if u are a fan…….why do u say negative s*** about KELLY all the time……..B**** PLEASE! FAKE ASS BANDWAGON H**!!

  36. Kellymotivation July 23, 2011

    @NICE_GURL

    Yep, her skin is flawless.

  37. YeaBey July 23, 2011

    I was kind of hesitant of Kelly going the sexual route but the pictures started to look ok after looking at them for a while! But any way “T word” posted this story on his website yesterday with a very similar title… I wonder how long Sam will steal ” t word’s” story when bey said her last 2 albums before 4 were Not classics… Sam be stealing!!

  38. YeaBey July 23, 2011

    The 1st and 4th picture below Sam’s caption should have been the standard and deluxe album covers

  39. MisterRowland July 23, 2011

    Absolutly AMAZINGGGG!!! Love it:

  40. nice_gurl July 23, 2011

    @YEABEY I agree they should have been the album covers.

  41. Joan July 23, 2011

    Good Morning:
    If you don’t like someone why come on here. if you are not a fan of Kelly Rowland then don’t say nothing at all. why have to be so netaivtve for anyone. the one that are netivative can any of you sing., act or do anything at all. Kelly can sing. you must like to even response to anything that she has going on right now.
    I bet you will be the first one to buy her new album.
    everyone have a great weekend and please try to stay cool and drink plenty of water.

  42. ChrisJ July 23, 2011

    smh

  43. Leo July 23, 2011

    Fab Chica!

  44. yeabey July 23, 2011

    @nice_gurl
    Yea and they shouldn’t have called it “Here I Am”….because I dont think kelly really knows who she is in the musical way

  45. Thedimplepuppet July 23, 2011

    Yeah I love the head shot pic, her eyes just drawn you N & it’s wet s*** lol.

  46. Leo July 23, 2011

    @Joan you drink plenty of water too k Girl! :-).

  47. Kellymotivation July 23, 2011

    I think the first picture should have been the cover for the standard version and the seventh should have been the cover for the Deluxe version of the album

  48. yeabey July 23, 2011

    @Kellymotivation
    the one with her hair covering her tits? lol
    I think that one could go on back with the tracklisting….lol
    But if zoomed up to a good angle, it could work for the album cover

  49. Kellymotivation July 23, 2011

    @YEABEY, yeah, the one with the hair covering her tits can go for Deluxe version of the album………. and if her body was shifted to the right of the picture, it would been a good album cover

    The first picture of her legs and hands covering her body would have been a good cover for the standard version (the 1st picture)

    The picture where she is just showing her back, would have been perfect for the back of the album of either version…..(the 5th picture)

    What do you think???

  50. Kellymotivation July 23, 2011

    @YEABEY

    The picture with her hair covering her tits would also make a good back cover for either versions…..

  51. JR July 23, 2011

    All these shots came from the inside of the CD cover……nonetheless they are HOTTTTT! Some of them give me a little Janet but I tell you what that is fine. If she wants to channel an Icon that has proven herself so be it. But what I like about Kelly is that she has chosen to go her own way. Her album is so diverse Pop, R&B & Dance and I f**** with it all! Bring on Tuesday!

  52. YeaBey July 23, 2011

    @KELLYMOTIVATION
    Oh ok… I agree … The picture with her back showing would also make a good back cover
    The 1st picture is my favorite out of them all and I do agree that it could be the standard edition cover… I wonder if she will use any of these for the “LAY IT ON ME” single cover

  53. pop royalty (RUDE BOY) July 23, 2011

    guys guys ! u didn’t buy the album on itunes , right ?! cuz the pic with her bare back is the “back cover ” 😉 ! lolz !

  54. YeaBey July 23, 2011

    @POP ROYALTY
    IT IS? It’s not out in the US yet so no we didn’t buy it!

  55. Kellymotivation July 23, 2011

    @POP ROYALTY

    I don’t think it has been released on itunes yet….BUT I LOVE ALL THESE PICTURES

    @YEABEY….she will probably use a screenshot from the video stills of “Lay it on me” as the cover art of the single

  56. Kellymotivation July 23, 2011

    It is funny how the moderators can moderate my comments and a few others, but they cannot moderate ROYWILLIAMS’ comments………#EPIC FAIL

  57. pop royalty (RUDE BOY) July 23, 2011

    Such a beautiful and talented grown ass woman I love and respect you Kelly God will bless you with more success!!

    #HereIamTuesday supporting this woman!!

  71. Troy July 23, 2011

    Very Tasteful and Tactfully done Kelly. I am sensing a whole lot of Miss Jackson which ain’t bad at all but with Kelly Rowlands signature all over it. I know That Kelly has always admired Miss Jackson so it’s only befitting that you pay homage to the Sister that reigns supreme for all the girls that came after her.

    I’m also seeing a young Donna Summer, perhaps if they ever developed a Disco Queen Biography of the Legendary Miss Summer, you could play the part.

    I can always say that I’m very proud of your accomplishments, though slow in the process, good things always comes to those who wait and with all the back-biting, manipulation and conniving Matthew did to get beYAWNcy where she is, I’m glad you took it upon yourself to let those Knowles go and now if you would only stop high-fiving the b**** that kept stealing your shine (beYAWNcy) you’ll do just fine. And by all means, don’t let that trick beYAWNcy talk you into a Destinys Child reunion, it’s your time to break out of her shawdow and as long as you keep giving her shine, she’ll step on you everytime.

  72. Kellymotivation July 23, 2011

    @TROY,
    I was with you 100% until you mentioned her sister and her dad……..

    As kelly fans, we should try making comments without mentioning Beyonce, or Matthew…She is Kelly Rowland………..It doesn’t help her image when you constantly mention Beyonce’s name……….LETS MOVE FORWARD.
    The pictures are simple and beautiful…….HER BEST ALBUM ART PHOTOS……

    @POP ROYALTY…Thanks boo

  73. maretha July 23, 2011

    It’s Kelly, Miss Rowland if your Feisty… Love the pictures… Cant wait for my physical copy of the album. already preorder my digital cppy. LOVE YOU KELLY. GO GET THEM GIRL…. FEELING ME RIGHT NOW IS A SURE HIT BABY

  79. Lacy July 25, 2011

    Kelly is DEFINITELY mimicking Janet Jackson! Just a couple of weeks ago on the BET awards she performed with Tre Songs and was dressed in all black with a hat and a pants, and ripped off her shirt towards the end of her performance, JUST LIKE JANET DID IN HER VIDEO “I GET SO LONELY!” Now, the same black and white pictures Janet took a while back she has copied! She is not inspired by Janet, she is COPING JANET’S STYLE, something that was done way back in the 90s, it’s nothing new! I like Kelly, but she needs to find her own identity in the music industry.
