When singer Kelis isn't touring the country or performing to thousands of viewers, she spends her days tending to cattle, harvesting produce, and repairing fences on her rural farm outside of Los Angeles. The musician, now 43, was first thrust into fame in the late 1990s and early 2010s, but she had to sell her $1.8 million LA mansion in 2019 and move to a low-key farm in South-west California instead. She now has more than 100 animals and raises a slew of vegetables and fruits. Although Kelis has fully embrace the farm life, that doesn't mean she has put her music career on hold. In fact, she's currently gearing up for the debut of her seventh album and is entangled on a European tour.

In his latest music video for Jumbotron S**t Poppin, Drake appears to have dropped some major money for one of the necklace's. Although the rapper and singer can be seen sporting a slew of bling around his neck while rapping out lyrics to his latest song, one piece of jewelry seems to be the 14-karat, three-tone N.E.R.D. Pharrell Williams owned the pendant chain for a long time. According to Vanity Fair, the pendent chain, which features tiny, gem-encrusted animations of Williams and his two bandmates, Chad Hugo and Shay Haley, recently sold to an unknown buyer via his new online auction website Joopiter for $2,184,000.

Beyonce has hit back at the band and I'm Too Sexy artist Right Said Fred this week, after the Grammy Award winner refused to offer permission to sample their 1991 hit for her song Alien Superstar. Right Said Fred's allegations were characterized as "erroneous, wildly dissimilar, and inaccurate" in a statement shared with MailOnline on Friday. Beyonce's staff told fans that Right Said Fred's publisher granted permission, and that the actors have 'co-writer credit' on the hit scene.

Beyoncé is responding to feedback: the singer took the "Milkshake" riff from her latest "Renaissance" album after receiving a tumultuous response from Kelis' original performer. Kelis said she was not aware of the sample, expressed her dissatisfaction with ownership, and her fractured friendship with former collaborators Pharrell Williams and Chad Hugo of The Neptunes in a series of videos leading up to her decision. The sample can no longer be heard on streaming services, and Williams and Hugo have been stripped from Beyoncé's website's song credits as it currently stands. This comes just days after Beyoncé scrapped an ableist slur, the word "spaz" from the song "Heated."
