As you already know, Nas and Kelis are divorcing. Kelis claims to “only” be making $20,000 a month, but spends about $800,000. She is trying to get alot more money out of Nas and she claims he made $11 million for his album deal. Nas is claiming he “did not receive even half of that amount.” He says he received closer to $4 million and he is making less money as time goes by. He is allegedly “only” making $147, 165 a month but spends about $70,000 a monthly on bills, including $10,000 in personal items like clothing and hair (What hair?!). Nas says he wants to be fully involved with his child. He has agreed to pay for certain baby items already, like strollers, cribs and a baby sling. He also says $5,000 a month is a good amount for child support for a newborn.
What I don’t get is, how these stars think they still need to spend money so lavishly even when their careers are damn near over. Just because your ass made x amount of dollars when you were hot, does NOT mean you can still spend that same amount of money now. SMH! Get it together! You both are making wayyyyyyyyyy more money then most adults are making a damn month! This divorce looks as if it’s about to get reallll messy! source
