Kelis gives birth

Kelis has given birth to a baby boy named Knight, and Nas's lawyer said the rapper was not allowed to be present at the birth.

That Kelis has gone and had a baby, which is often the next step after going into labour (as we told you she had yesterday). She and her soon to be former husband Nas have named the boy Knight.

Nas' lawyer told reporters that the rapper was not allowed to witness the birth, despite rushing to the hospital in order to do so. He told AllHipHop: "It was his intention to be there for the birth, but unfortunately he has not been allowed to be present. While this is clearly heartbreaking to him, Nas continues to offer his support and love to his new baby boy and his mother".

However, the rapper seems to have got over the heartbreak fairly quickly, and later he performed, visibly drunk, at Queensbridge Housing Projects in New York, telling the audience: "This is like the best thing ever. My son's name is Knight. That's what I named the young god. Y'all heard it first. Don't believe nothing in the media".

You heard the man, ignore this whole story. No one's had any babies and Nas and Kelis are still happily married.
