Kelis: Nas Left Me High and Dry

Kelis and NasKelis claims estranged hubby Nas has left her high and dry ... not offering her a penny in the wake of her impending birth ... and she says she's broke -- "I have run out of money."

Kelis filed legal papers claiming Nas isn't paying her support, pre-natal expenses -- nothing, even though she claims he is filthy rich.

Kelis is asking the judge to order Nas to pay spousal support, child support, all pregnancy-related expenses, and one-half of all medical expenses after the child is born. She also wants $3,500 for the baby nurse after the child's birth, and $20,000 for strollers, cribs and other baby supplies.

Kelis says, "My survival is based on [Nas'] will at this time. If he does not want to pay for an expense, it does not get paid." The couple was married in 2003. The baby is due this month.

Kelis says she's entitled to maintain the lifestyle to which she became accustomed during their marriage -- they have five homes, fly first class, go to fancy restaurants, and on and on. Most interesting -- "There were many expensive pieces [of jewelry] such as a princess-cut diamond tennis bracelet that was recently appraised for $190,000. My engagement ring is an approximately nine-carat cushion-cut diamond solitaire. I have numerous watches...such as Cartier, Rolex, Frank Muller and Chopard."

Nas and KelisHer lawyer, disso-queen Laura Wasser, says in a separate declaration she's asked Nas to ante up some $$$ for Kelis and the unborn baby but he hasn't responded.

94. Hold up. What is up with all these assumptions about Nas' parenting? You are all showing yourselves to be VERY ignorant. Nas has been an exemplary father with his first child. She is named executive producer on multiple albums so will receive residual income for the rest of her life. The child's mother is a complete idiot, yet this has not stopped Nas from being there for the child. So why all the hate? A little closet racism...

This issue is different. Kelis wants to maintain HER lifestyle while no longer being the man's wife. She can care less about the child she caries. Notice the relationship ended with her pregnancy. Does Nas get to maintain his lifestyle? When a relationship is over it is just that... OVER. So you got some "bling" married to Nas. You chose to move on so you need to now learn how to support yourself in YOUR new lifestyle. Please tell me what diamonds and watches have to do with her providing a loving stable home for the child? What woman could not do that on $5000 per month? Only a gold digger couldn't work it out.

She is out of her mind like many women.

95. Lol DNICE sucka d*ck. Shes bein a typical golddigger rite now. No other reason why she would file for divorce RITE WEN SHES ABOUT 2 HAVE A CHILD!? N she aint broke if she got all that bling on her! Alotta yall are missing the clues, SHE JUST WANTS THE $! All he should pay 4 is a reasonable amount for the prenatal expenses, child support (its only fair), and he should get part custody 2 the child 2. U cant neglect a child from its father if theres no danger. F*CK KELIS!!!
