Nas Pleads Not Guilty to Contempt

Nas has just pled not guilty to contempt of court, in what has become a bitter divorce case between him and Kelis.

Nas Pleads and Kelis

In court this AM, Kelis' lawyer alleged Nas owes more than $200,000 in child and spousal support, along with attorney's fees.

Kelis' lawyer had filed a contempt motion earlier because her estranged hubby refused to pay up ... today, through Nas' attorney, the rapper pled not guilty.

A contempt hearing will be held next month. If convicted, Nas could go to jail.

wow to the retard who tried to make the connextion of her and tiger haha....ok first off tiger screwed up by having an affair. second kellis was nothing before she got with nas, and $100,000 a month is absurd....she had a career she should be able to afford all thos lavish things....tiger isnt in the situation to pay child support because he takes care of his kids....kellis is the one who wants a ludacris amount of money...she is a smart hoe and will get her money...her family will milk it all from her and she will end up bieng your average ghetto trash all star.

It's not that NaS hasn't paid Kelis any child support at all, it's that Kelis believes she deserves more, which is why the contempt charge was filed. Kelis has no money and even less talent but NaS should have known better before marrying her. She was an industry whore before NaS and now she's living up to that image by demanding more money.

Kelis may not everyone's favorite person, but Nas was ordered to pay. He chose to marry her and he chose to have a baby with her. Know he needs to man up and take care of his child.

Yups,

Kelis was the strongest feminist on earth. That was until she could smell the money. Then she went to play a different game.

There has gots to be a better way for them to handle this situation. Kelis seems to be a bit money hungry. Nas has ALWAYS been a private stand up guy. I'm sure he is doing right by his children.

How in the heck would anyone say nas is a stand up guy. HE HASN'T PAID ANY CHILD SUPPORT FOR THE ENTIRE TIME THE CHILD HAS BEEN ALIVE. If he was a good guy, he would have shelled out money to help suppor the kid. Nas stated awhile ago that he was not going to pay nothing for the kelli and the baby because he didnt think it was his. Nas is a huge dooch bag for not helping support his kid. coolcrappystuff.com
