Kelis

Kelis is an American singer, songwriter, and chef who believes everything is better smothered and dipped in sauce. She has released six studio albums and studied as a saucier at the world-famous Le Cordon Bleu. Kelis has been recognized at the Brit Awards, Q Awards, NME Awards, and Grammy Awards ceremonies. Her musical output, both as a lead and featured artist, encompasses various genres—she has collaborated with R&B and hip hop acts including Busta Rhymes and Clipse, electronic and dance producers such as Calvin Harris, Timo Maas, and Richard X, pop and rock acts Enrique Iglesias and No Doubt and indie and alternative musicians including Björk and Dave Sitek. She has sold six million records worldwide. Kelis' first cookbook, My Life on a Plate, was released on September 28, 2015; Kelis describes it as "an exploration of tastes and cultures, and my experience as a chef, musician, mother, and wife". She is also the creator of a line of Bounty and Full, a line of sauces made with love and integrity.

Since January 2020, Kelis has been living on a working farm outside Los Angeles that she manages with her husband, when not performing around the world.
