After three years of marriage, Nas and Kelis have reportedly called it quits.
“I can confirm that she has filed for divorce,” a spokesperson for Kelis told VIBE. “We request the media to respect her privacy during this very difficult time.”
At around 3:45pm PST, high-powered attorney Laura Wasser filed final divorce papers today on behalf of Kelis, citing verbal abuse and infidelity.
Kelis, who is currently seven months pregnant, is asking for spousal support and child support. She is also asking for joint legal and physical custody of their unborn child. Word is, they officially split two weeks ago. Wow! I’m shocked!
CHRIS BROWN COURT DATE PUSHED BACK
On Wednesday, L.A. Superior Court Judge Patricia Schnegg granted Chris Brown’s lawyer, Mark Geragos a delay in the Rihanna assault case (Brown was not present).
Attorney Geragos says he plans to file motions at court involving police discipline records — which suggests he will seek dismissal of the case because of police leaks in the investigation. (In February, Los Angeles police launched an internal investigation to determine who released a picture that shows a bruised and battered Rihanna the night of the Feb. 8 attack.)
The next hearing has been set for May 28. A judge then will decide whether there is enough evidence for the case to go to trial. A preliminary hearing is likely to begin in June.
But Brown — who has pleaded not guilty to two felony counts (assault and making criminal threats) — could reach a plea deal with prosecutors before then.
I know Beyonce had something to do with this! She gonna get her ass whooped! Damn! Damn! Damn! I loved this couple.
wow @ nas and kelis. wow. wow. he tattooed her on his arm.
well angel…looks like you could be the next lucky girl ( Im thinkin bout your post when he was at the basketball game lol)
this is outta nowhere though.
this situation with chris brown is jus annoying now. I hate when celebrities can push back court dates and dodge any serious trouble..if he wasnt who he was he would be locked up right now as we speak..
Damn single ladies song. Don’t do it Kelis!
This only goes to prove that things are not always what they seem.
DAMN KELIS, SHE IS PREGNANT…HOPEFULLY THINGS GET BETTER…WE CAN GO OUT KICK IT GIRL, LADIES ONLY…
Nas is single again ladies
Damn WHY does Bey ALWAYS have to be brought up in post that dont concern her.
How about Nas & Kelis marriage just wasnt meant to be.
Has ANYONE read Nas’ baby momma Carmen’s book…Nas has issues…& Im sure Kelis has some issues as well.
But I wish them the best of luck b/c she is almost due…hopefully AFTER the baby is born they can reconcile.
awwww
(
they gettin divorced
noooo
well yeah if you like verbal abuse and infidelity, he is a keeper. can’t believe this shit!
& fuck chris brown.
!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (Trumpets!) I would bet good money that that is NOT Nas baby!!! I mean what other reason would they quit? Does anybody remember that videotape of a rapper’s wife cheating on him? That had to be Kelis, but Nas killed that noise quick!
Top Ten*****
Dam I thought Kelis and Nas was Official, Look like they fit each othre well.
Thas Wassup tho
@3 I feel u on that… its time
CB… Its time for you to pay your dues and go to jail. You did the crime now u do the time…..
Is anyone elses font hella large?? Anyways, i heard the rumor anout Nas and Kelis last month but i didnt think it would be true, it’s sad they were very cute together!! Hopefully they can work it out..
Chris….im tired of you and ur nonsense!!! What is really goin on with this case?? Why not drop it? If they didnt have enough evidence in Feb, where is the evidence gonna come from in May and June?? SMH.
ANGEL, DONT BE SHOCKED GIRL, IM NOT! THEM JONES’ ARE SOME CHEATING BASTARDS! I KNOW CUZ NAS FIRST COUSIN CHEATED ON HIS GIRL WITH ME! AND SHE TOLD ME HE WAS BROKE WHEN HE ALWAYS FRONTED LIKE HE HAD MONEY. IM DONE WITH RAP NIGGAS! KELIS GOOD LUCK TO U AND UR BABY! U WILL BE FINE!
Shit Nas, you cheat on your pregnant wife? Really? Why do men know they can’t keep their dicks in their pants yet still ask women to marry them? I see why dyking out is so in right now. Niggas ain’t shit.
NAS IS A FOOL FOR CHEATING ON HER, PERIOD, BUT THERE ARE ALWAYS 2 SIDES TO EVERY STORY..
REALeyes.
SAY IT AINT SO!
oh gee..
NAs and Kelis
fo real?
Hmm
Shit
kelis gotta be
“young fresh and new”
omg NOOOOO!!! i loved them together
NO NAS AND KELIS NOOOO I LOVE U GUYZZZ
Makes me wonder if she planned the pregnancy simply because she knew this DIVORCE was right around the corner or if she /they planned the pregnancy in a last ditch effort/attempt to fix the already doomed marriage. hmmmmmmm?
Personally I think she planned the pregnancy herself so that she can still be getting some decent $$$$ when she DIVORCES him. When they got married I saw this happening sooner or later. So…not much of a SHOCK to me at all.
any who cL
..
lmao @ candi_renee
lmao
NOOOOO i thought they were a perfect fit….o well count down til jay and B divorce….wait they have a secret they dont stay up under each other too much!!!
I’m sso tired of the Rihanna and Chris incident! Damn, let me know when he’s sentenced and I don’t wanna hear nothin’ else!
WTF is really goin’ on with Nas and Kelis!! Wow!
this sounds like some ones hormones are going crazy..lol
so sad another marriage down the drain
As for the tatoos, at least he can say that she (KELIS) is his “baby momma”. But then again he can always get it removed or better yet…cover it up. I will never understand why someone would get a lover/boyfriend/girfriend/spouse tatooed on their body anyway. Makes no sense at all.
to each its own I guess.
CHRIS BROWN: I hust hope & pray his CAREER ressurects itself after this whole RIHANNA nightmare. RUMOR has it she has found herself a new friend/rebound guy (good luck to that guy—he will need it, if that rumor is true at all) LOL!
You people are crazy for blaming Kelis… For a woman to be 7 months pregnant and want a divorce there had to be things going on that only THEY know. I feel sorry for her, who wants to go t that lone. Sometimes women get fed up and she was probably just FED up. I look at NAS differently.
I cant believe one commenter said NAS is single now. You stupid woman. You want a man that cheats on his pregnant wife? Stupid.
21–i swear i was thinkin the same thing bout gettin that paper after they divorce i just didnt wanna say it ..lol…i truly believe when people break up you were already breaking up a year before…but when you care about someone its human nature to hold on to people even when you know the situation isnt good for you anymore.
She just made sure she had her insurance policy set up. Good for you girl lol…
I HATE U SO MUCH RIGHT NOW ..I HATE U SO MUCH RIGHT NOW!!! ARARAGHHAGHH!! LMAO

so sad for nas and kelis. i hope everything works out. no words for chris brown. smh
1. When two ppl break up, its not good to grumble about how horrible “men” or “women” are. Sometimes, just let it rest w/o passing judgement on the other gender.
2. An attorney draws up divorce papers, even formulates the best “reason” for divorce. Eric Benet was told that he didn’t want a messy divorce he had to pretend to be addicted to sex. Don’t be so gullible and quick to think you know.
3. We have no idea if the abuse (if there was any) was going both ways. Nas is pretty private person. He would never complain, even if someone else told all his dirt.
4. We aren’t quoting books written by ex-girlfriends are we? We don’t really think we know Nas because “Carmen” got some white ppl to ghost write a book for her?
5. Always remember – its better to try Black Love than to stand on the sidelines throwing trash at it.
6. Men think its disgusting when women salivate over a man that just broke up with his wife. In fact, we have a name for these women – whore. Don’t be one.
7. Here’s to hoping they slow down – think it through – and do what’s best – whatever that may be.
8. Its hard being a entertainment couple. Lots of pressures.
First Kimora and Russelll…now these two….
who’s next
Beyonce and Jay-Z??!!
My heart sank and…she’s super pregnant
Lord
I’M SO HURT RIGHT NOW!!
Nas WHY???? Kelis NOOOO!!!!
damn yo!
this is the biggest OMG moment of the year!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Wow…I wonder what happened between those two…I bet it’s something scandalous!
nas & kelis…not shocked at all. that shit was a sham from jump. and did we forget the whole alleged sex tape incident?
The petiton is false…it states they were married on 7/28/2003…and they were marreid on 1/8/2005! Something seems very odd about this! Nas and kelis were not married 5 years and 9 months! This seems off…very fake! Actully the lawyer did not confirm it…an unknown spokes person did!
my 10 year crush on kelis has now ended..
who knew she would play the same money-hungry trick that hood rats do..
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO! AWE MAN (NOT NAS AND KELIS)
I just love how some women will find ANY WAY to blame the women. SHE filed for divorce, citing infidelity, yet some of you can make up in your mind that she is to blame. It amazes me. I mean, I don’t know these people, but dammit the first thing I think of is not how a woman must be the reason for the demise.
And do you guys know why you are surprised? because you DON’T KNOW THEM!
WTf???? Filing for divorce when you’re pregnant!! such a shock! But I wonder if their relationship violent or something and she didn’t want the baby to be in that environment. I recently broke up with my child’s father, and being a single mom can be really tough at times..does she know what’s she getting herself into???? But she has money and a big fam..guess she’ll be fine!
@21…yea, she planned that pregnancy, fo sho’ …….because the rumors that their relationship had been on the rocks have been circulating since 2007! Get that paper….when you meet a rich dude, ladies, open dem legs as wide as you can! LMAO
my bad…i read it so fast that I didn’t even see “infidelity”….damn Nas. I just lost a little respect for you! I still think they should try to work it out for the sake of the child…but…ok….it just breaks my heart when a home is broken up…
lol
oh no
Nas and kelis got married in 2005 not 2003
liars all lies
now with Chris brown the DA is bluffing they want him to take a deal and they still havent handed the case info to his lawyer.
how u gonna give him a plea deal bu no hand over the info
the only reason he got tha assualt charge cause the pic got released
and the public went crazy.
at the begining they only charged him with “criminal threats”
they saw her face from the same night so why wait so long to add that charge
it was a fight
she started.
they bluffing they want him to take a charged for something she started
i say fight till u win take it to trial if u have too.
the media is always lying so sad
He shoulda married Alicia Keys from jump
i guess they was maried before they had the ceremony
I really hope they can work out their problems…i think after almost 4.5 years married they shud try, but if not..i wish them both the best of luck and still a healthy baby..
but i’ll still wait for a direct comment from either nas or kelis..
What the Hell does Beyonce have to do with the demise of their relationship? People can’t live without putting her name in any and everything. Yes Nas’s baby mothers book stated that he was abusive and a womanizer. Its just sad because there is a baby involved but if there relationship was abusive its better that they will be apart for the sake of the baby. I’m so tired of hearing about Rihana & Chris Brown! They both need help not to have the camera in their face every 5 seconds.
nnnnnnnoooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
@ #39 Luv Em. I noticed the same thing too. The divorce paper say 7/23/03 as the date of marriage, but then the article says they met in 2002 at an MTV awards party (which is usually in August/September) and dated for 2 years before they got married. They had a special on TVOne or something maybe Bravo or Oxygen of their wedding in early 2005. I don’t know, maybe the papers are fake or there was a typo. This is very sad if it’s true, It is terrible when infidelity and abuse are apart of a relationship.
If this is true then its no ones business but Kelis & Nas.
I love them as a couple. They are so inspiring together.
As for the sextape, theres no sextape. If there was a sextape then it would’ve leaked a long time ago. People are always hating on Kelis for no reason at all. I wouldn’t be surprised if females prayed for Kelis and Nas to break up cause they think they have a chance getting with Nas.
Anyways, I hope everything is alright with Kelis and Nas.
Damn, all this during her pregnancy….And Angel, I guess u spoke too soon when you said Kelis was a lucky woman to have nas……..*listens to “Gettin Married”*
You people sound so young on here. Why the heck she gotta give birth to a human being just to get back at Nas??? In that case the joke is on her for another 18 years! I mean wow..is it possible that the both of them planned this pregnancy under the impression that their marriage would last??? And is it possible that Kelis is not like a lot of broke down women out there willing to put up with a man’s bullish just because he has money??? And think about it, wouldn’t she have just stayed if she wanted to continue to get paid??? Come on black people let’s think outside of the box sometimes. We don’t think much of ourselves do we??? Wake up and stop looking for scandal in every story @ 21
DAWN!!!, i like Nas and Kelis as a couple…oh well!!i just dont understand men sometimes, dey can have da hottest chick in their arms, but dey always have to cheat. its sad!!!
i just want that Chris Brown/Rihanna ish 2 be over..its getting tired now. plus; i can’t stand da fat forehead bitch Rihanna. yeah i said it, i dont feel bad for her.
NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
Please say it ain’t so! I LOVE THIS COUPLE!
Cant they go to couple counselling or something?
Work it out some how? theres a child involved… another sad situation
WHY NAS WHY?
