Kelis Leaks New Song 'Acapella' on Twitter


Stop what you're doing! Kelis just leaked her new, David Guetta produced, electro-club-banger "Acapella" on Twitter @IAmKelis. She's back with a new sound, a new look, and even a new label.

Kelis also posted a special message to her fans on her new website
.

"Well, walking through the streets of NY this summer...I use the term walking loosely...I was extremely pregnant and probably doing more of a very slow creep down each humid sticky block...people had so much to say to me. You know us New Yorkers don't ever keep anything to ourselves...I was asked if I would ever put another album out. I suppose people assumed after the baby and divorce and all the time I took off (went to culinary school during my break which was amazing and another conversation) that it would be on to motherhood for me. And well that's true...as I lay here with my perfect little won ton now writing you all this message. My answer was always the same. "Soon come guys" ;) and so here we are. My album is pretty much done. I signed a new deal and I'm madly in love with life and ready to share something with you. My song is called "Acapella" and I wrote it with love and life in mind. I hope that it finds you well and that you love it, cause honestly I do! Muah!"

-Kelis

"P.S. to all the people who have stuck around and supported me all these years do know that I sincerely feel you and love you! We did this all together"

Michael Jackson's white glove he used while premiering his moonwalk dance in 1983 has been sold yesterday for $420,000 (including tax). The lucky new owner is Hoffman Ma from Hong Kong.

The item was the most valuable from a collection of memrobillia at the Hard Rock Cafe in Times Square. Its pre-auction estimate was $40,000 to $60,000.

"It was a fairly good discount," said Ma, a 36-year-old Jackson fan who bought the pop-music treasure on behalf of the Ponte 16 Resort Hotel in Macau.

Watch a video of Michael Jackson in 1983 performing Billie Jean with the white glove:
