I used to think Kelis was kind of wack. But I like her more and more. She is original and does not conform to the “avaerages R&B chick predictable personna. In The U.S. she enjoys average star status in England I hear she is like a major entertainer!
She is bad! and NAS is lucky!
Kelis looks good go ma!
i’ve seen these ads on tv….im not a fan of the car though.
