Written By: Victoria H. (Urban Editor) Kelis took to the stand in her ongoing divorce case with Nas and told the court that she attempted to reconcile with her husband back in September, but it did not work out. Kelis also told the court that it has been very difficult to earn money due to the fact she is caring for a baby and that there are not a lot of job opportunities within the music business. Kelis did say that she did look for work outside of the music industry, but there were not a lot of job options available.
Kelis is asking for continued spousal support as Nas was the primary earner in the marriage and still continues to earn a lot of money. Kelis said that Nas will be releasing two albums next year.
The judge ordered Nas to pay $40,454 in spousal support and $10,647 in child support. Nas also must pay $46,022 for Kelis' attorney fees. Kelis has custody for now, but Nas is asking the court for more access to his son.
