'Bossy' singer Kelis boldly attacked PETA for critical statements they made about her choice of wardrobe, and has been extremely aggressive in her pursuit of child support payments from her former husband, Nas. Though the couple were pictured together just this past September, Kelis has allegedly turned shy when it comes to meeting her ex in public.
Gossip website Bossip.com claims that the two performed at the acclaimed Sundance Film Festival in Utah last week, with Nas playing at Harry O's, while Kelis followed John Legend, rocking the Film Lounge at House of Hype.
According to Bossip's source, Kelis did everything in her power to avoid Nas, delaying her performance until well after Nas finished his set, because "she didn't want to compete against her ex." The former hip-hop sweathearts have grown progressively more estranged as their battle over financial support has gone on. We hope they reach a reconciliation for their son's sake.
In the meantime, the two artists are more than likely to come head-to-head this spring when they both drop new albums. Nas' forthcoming album with reggae artist Damian Marley, 'Distant Relatives,' is scheduled to be released in April. Kelis is currently working on new material with a "futuristic disco sound" for her forthcoming album, 'Fleshtones,' which she says will see release via Interscope this spring.

this is a website for black entertainers. us black people know who these people are. this wesite caters to blacks.
if i went on a bass fishing website i wouldnt know who the celebrities of bass fishing were.
you make yourself seem ignorant. your arent insulting these people. thats just a reflection of the lack of cultural assimilation on your behalf.

Uhm NO... you make YOUR SELF look ignorant. Good job putting yourself into a stereotype MR RICK. FYI not all white people go on bass fishing websites. Also not all black people know who every black entertainer is. Each person has their own taste in music, fashion, tv etc etc. You don't know if the above poster was black or not, maybe they just don't listen to hip hop. Sorry MR RICK, your comment is an epic fail. If anyone here is ignorant, it would be you.

Who? What? Why?

It should not be surprising that she waited until his performance was finished to begin hers. If they are battling over financial support, as the story says, she would hurt her claim if her performance stole audience members from his. This does not make her "shy" -- just savvy.

It is kind of sad to me that people haven't heard of Nas.
He is one of the most talented rappers ever.

drday211at 1-31-2010
that is almost sad for you to say you have never heard of these two people...understood if you haven't heard of kelis but nas????? my grandfather knows who Nas is. He has been huge in the entertainment industry since the early 90s do you live in a bubble lol. i am white, race has nothing to do with it either peopole need to stop saying that. slavery ended 1865 and if you were born the year discrimination publicly ended you'd be over 50. there is obviously ignorant people that exist and clearly you are one of them. i like the bass fishing comment, verywell put!! you are the racist one for saying that. this is a website for black people? sorry i didn't see any button that i had to click if i was white so i could be directed to aerosmiths website
drday211at 1-31-2010
Mr. Rick, go F*** yourself. you are ignorant as sh*t. you pull the race card because they don't know who Nas is. I am white I have never been bass fishing in my life. That's like you saying who's john gotti and me coming at you saying this is a website for white people if i went to nba.com i wouldn't know who any of those celebrities are. your a joke and America's biggest social problem. You can't finally realize that you set your own fate and fuc*ed your life up on your own, white people had nothing to do with it. i'm willing to bet your ancestors don't even trace back to slavery either. QUIT THE RACIST CRAP! LOOK UP THE STATISTICS ON RACISM IN 2010 YOU'LL SEE THAT THE MOST RACIST ARE BLACKS TOWARDS WHITES.

All I can do is shake my head at some peoples comments. Especially you DrDay. Go perscribe youself something to calm your ass down and possibly help your critical thinking skills.

Who are these losers? Some nappy headed ho wearing fur and wanting her Baby Daddy to give her all of his hard earned coin because she laid on her back and birthed his (who knows for sure) kid? Just another black woman wanting money for laying their entire life on their back and breeding nonstop.....
