You gotta love Kelis, but upon hearing how much money she wants to squeeze out her ex-husband Nas for both child and spousal support, it’s hard to stand by her. Kelis’ lawyers have gone over Nas’ finances and have requested that the following demands be met:
- Nas pulls in $244,826 a month
- Kelis rakes in a relatively paltry $13,744 a month
- Kelis should get child support totaling $17,225 a month
- Kelis should get spousal support totaling $72,728
- Nas should pay retro child support totaling $29,522
- Nas should pay retro spousal support totaling $281,571
While I support pretty much any request for child support, those figures seem a little steep. And why is she getting more for the act of being his ex wife than the act of mothering his child? Doesn’t that seem a little out of whack? Now that she’s single, Kelis has ample time to make her own money.
Nas is a cheater…therefore he can suck it. It would’ve been cheaper to keep it in his pants.
The point I was going to make precisely. Too bad for Nas. Sometimes you get what you deserve. A woman scorned. What can I say. Apart from all of this jaz…her earrings are f’in UGLY! J.C. girl…with that much dough you think you could afford something a little, well, um, less tacky!
that is pretty out of order in my opinion….she doesn’t need all that money. and why the hell does she get more money than her child? ridiculous……
it’s the 80s all over again?
(fashion and divorce $)
The spousal support is probably part of a pre-nup agreement. And while she is single but that doesn’t mean she has ample time to make her own money. Her first priority should be to her kiddo-caring and raising it.
last week I was trying to help my recently widowed sister, mother of four, figure out how to make ends meet on $25,000 a YEAR!
I KNOW!! How is Nas earning $200,000+ a month? I’d be happy making half that a year. I dont understand what people do with so much money. How many cars and houses can you buy?
That seems to be wrong… Nas is no way worth that much dough. No way.
wait, wait, wait a minute. What he does with the money he EARNS is none of anyone’s business. Now, hos ex-wife treating the title of ‘ex-wife’ as a position that she should get a salary for, should be addressed by the court. She should get paid for raising their child but if she’s that hard up for cash, why doesn’t he just raise the kid? Fuck money hungry women
I’m not sure she can…after being with Nas, I don’t think her milkshake will bring all the boys to the yard!
I’m upset that Reno stole my line :(
I was going to say, “Well her milkshake is probably damn worth it…” or something.
And quite frankly, I am wondering more importantly how 13k is not enough money monthly. I would LOVE 13k a month. Hell, even 10k a month. She’s making my barely 800 seem like I should be living on the streets…
Fuck you rich people.
She lives in NYC so 13K really won’t take you that far.
I for one don’t think she’s asking for that much. He could pay her off in two months’ time.
Pay Pal!
I’ve really enjoyed all the comments. m hm
And I just noticed – unless it’s a typo – the child support amount says ‘per month’ and the spousal support and other stuff don’t, soo those look like a one time dealie…
some clarification if possible from the powers that be?et
oh and one more thing, jen b. <3 lovely, hating rich people is guaranteed to make sure you stay poor! it’s physics.
oh and one more one more thing, molls: that headline is great.
You think 90,000 a month is not “asking for that much”? Plus her 13,000. thats over 100,000a month. I know its expensive to live in NYC………..
it doesn’t SAY PER MONTH
Right about now, Nas is wishing he were lactose intolerant.
And what does Kelis do nowadays that brings in $13.74K a month? Does she have some secret, successful career as a prize fighter that we don’t know about?
“Right about now, Nas is wishing he were lactose intolerant.” That is my favorite line of the day. I am crazy about what you just said there.
Hell yeah! That was awesome.
Didn’t Princess Diana wear a pair of earrings similar to those? They sure are elegant.
That killed me. You commenters are on POINT today.
I really like how this is not round numbers, like… every dollar count….
All together now ” I aint saying she a golddigger, but she aint messin with no broke niggas” See Nas really should have listened to the line in the song “we want pre-nup”
