Kelis : Her Milkshake Brings Spike Hair Do’s And Pink Latex To The Yard

30 Jan

Fleshtones drops in April and like any smart celebrity, you want to get some press beforehand right ? Kelis decided that instead of showing up to the first ever Data Awards in Los Angelas wearing something classy and sexy; she’d leave the house wearing this crazy pink latex bodysuit. The outfit is teamed with these monstrous shoes made by Alexander McQueen. If that’s not enough; the 30 year old singer also sported an Avatar inspired hair do and feathered eye lashes. Words can’t describe this outfit, but it kind of makes the whole thing more awesome.The music video for her single, Acapella is coming soon.

Kelis Next Album, Fleshtones

30 Jan

Near the end of 2009,  Kelis and husband Nas split up after almost 3 years of marriage; which means the image you see above is one you’ll never see again. Although our favourite hip hop power couple is over, Kelis has been hard at work being both a mother and musician. The milkshake singer has announced that her follow up to the 2006 album, Kelis Is Here will be called Fleshtones. While not a lot is known about the next album, we do know that like our girl Christina Aguilera, Kelis is shopping her sound for this record in the electro and indie circles. She’s currently working with Diplo, Switch, Calvin Harris, Boyz Noize, and Will I Am on the new album. The first single, Acapella is produced by David Guetta; the man behind the 2009 smash hit, Sexy Bitch. The song is about her son with Nas named Knight and it’s amazing. Fleshtones is set for an April 2010 release.
