Nas + Kelis

It should be dutifully noted that shining armour does not include nigger jackets or onesies.

Just hours after Kelis gave birth to her first child, a judge reportedly ordered her estranged husband, Nas, to fork over some serious cash in both spousal and child support.

According to The Associated Press, a Los Angeles Superior Court judge ruled today that Nas must pay Kelis nearly $44,000 a month in support. The ruling is temporary until a follow-up hearing September 8, when it will be decided if the amount should be altered. In addition to the monthly support, Nas must also pay $45,000 to cover Kelis’ attorney fees and for a forensic accountant.

Knight is the first child for Kelis and the second for Nas,  who has a 15 year old daughter, Destiny, from a previous relationship with Carmen Bryan.
