Kelis "Acted Like a Diva"
Kelis is proving that she really is "Bossy." She pissed-off organizers of last weekend's White Party in Palm Springs, who claim that she showed up nearly two hours late, and then only performed two songs.

Someone needs to alert the IRS β because we know she won't." Event organizer Phil Lobel said that, "Kelis acted like a diva."
For her part, Kelis' rep Tracy Nguyen told the NY Post: "There were many missteps behind the scenes which created a less than suitable environment for any artist to perform. Because of her love for her fans, Kelis made the decision to take the stage, against any advice not to do so."
