Na Na Na Na Nana. That’s prolly what Kelis is taunting ex husband and baby daddy Nas with right now. The battle over the child and spousal support has been determined and Kelis has been declared the winner. Instead of the $5000 Nas wanted to pay the judge ruled that he has to pay close to $40,000 in monthly support. The exact breakdown of everything he has to pay via The Associated Press is:
*$30,471 in spousal support
*$9,027 in child support
*$45,000 for Kelis’ lawyer

He had better make another hit album- Hit the studio and leave those chickenheads alone. Legally he has to keep her in the lifstyle she is accustomed too- he did not want her to work while they were married so this is what it is. It amazes me how people will beat down a broke man that can’t afford to pay the $750.00 a month in child support for two kids- which is NOT enough to cover medical insurance and childcare - but these celebrities making BANK - get sympathy - The judge uses the same 17% formula for each case. So his 17% is wayyyyyy more than the average 17%- It is cheaper to keep her. In a marriage you do nothing alone - so it is money they made together as a couple anyway. So she wants a nurse for her child- don’t we all wish we had the best for our children - I know I do. She might feel as if she knows enough about raising a baby and wants professional help good for her. I don’t fully agree with thier situation but I do not know all of the facts either - so I don’t judge.
