R&B star Kelis has been hit with two tax liens in just one month. First, a tax lien was filed against the "Milkshake" singer in New York over claims she failed to pay $330,426.71 between the years of 2004 and 2010.

Now, new court documents show Nas' ex-wife also allegedly owes $61,737.29 in back taxes for the years 2009 and 2010. The Grammy nominee also owes the federal government an additional amount of $213,932.02 for the same time period, according to TMZ.com.

Her milkshake may bring all the boys to the yard, but it doesn't pay the bills.

Rapper Nas refused to heed warning signs that his marriage to Kelis was doomed because he thought the couple could be an inspiration to the hip-hop generation.

The couple's four-year union ended with a very messy divorce and custody battle shortly before their son Knight was born in 2009, and now the I Can hitmaker admits he should have known the marriage wouldn't work.

He tells Complex magazine, "It (relationship) was a problem I was attracted to. It was rock and roll. I saw Kelis as Courtney Love - but I also saw her as a mahogany queen. I saw us as a beautiful thing. I saw us as insp...

R&B singer Kelis is not a fan of "California Gurls" hitmaker Katy Perry.

According to Britain's Daily Star newspaper she said, "Katy Perry is crap. It's just poor pop. Her name might be on her stuff but that doesn't mean it's any good."

Maroon 5 and Christina Aguilera recently ended Perry's record-breaking run at the top of the U.S. pop chart.

Perry's "Last Friday Night (T.G.I.F.)," which became the fifth single from her "Teenage Dream" album to reach number one on the Hot 100, drops to five after spending two weeks on top.

Kelis hosted "Marquee Mondays" Marquee Nightclub in Las Vegas on Monday looking like a hot mess. She mixed leopard-print tights with a sheer, cleavage revealing shirt and a biker jacket.

Last month the singer was slapped with a lawsuit from the bosses of a talent agency amid allegations she failed to pay for services used last year.

The Milkshake singer and her management hired staff at Drive Talent Inc. to provide "goods and services" for a variety of performances on TV shows, including appearances on Today, The Tonight Show with Jay Leno, and Late Night with Jimmy Fallon.
