Kelly is Boss Ballin’

We didn’t know Kelly had it like THIS:

Kelly Rowland spent almost $400,000 on a recent night out with friends. She racked up a $372,000 bar bill on guests — including U2 frontman Bono — at Amika’s Weekend Takeover in St. Tropez, France, on Friday. A source says, “Kelly was the ultimate host and even when the bar bill began to spiral out of control, she refused to close the tab. She had 30 very thirsty pals, so it was always going to be a pretty big night.

“At one point, Kelly started dancing wildly and put on a silly Viking hat, much to the hilarity of everyone. Bono arrived quite late and Kelly told him to order whatever he liked. A good night was had by all.” Kelly, 27, treated her guests to 50 magnums of $6,000 vintage Dom Perignon, 24 bottles of $1,000 Patron tequila and 10 bottles of $4,000 Louis XIII cognac.

Dropping 400 stacks on an evening out and kickin it with Bono…okay Kelly.

    oh and morning Diva!

  • w.w.

    hilarity, indeed.

  • Somer

    This is exactly what I was talking bout on the Tito Jackson post yesterday. This is why blacks don’t keep their money past 1 generation. Rich whites have to get approval from a board of trustees to invest their own money (at the beginning of the movie Hitch). Kelly may have made a few ends while in Destiny Child but she does not have the talent to continue making that kind of money on her own. In a few years she will be begging Beyonce to do a reunion CD & tour.

    You would not hear Beyonce out blowing money like that on a bunch of hanger-ons. Out of 30, I wonder how many were really friends over in London. I good friend would not order $4,000 bottles on her tab. I betch Bono was laughing at her dumb ass.

    Seriously, I guarantee you this is not what she paid for that night out. These clubs are always giving the media/gossip rags their “menu price” for these items. Plus, I’m sure the party was “sponsored” by the club or some bigshot that was there.

    Don’t believe the hype!

    She better be careful.

    If this is true she needs to pull her dough in and stop apending it on people who don’t give and damn about her.

    $400.000 is a lot of money down right excessive.

  • Lady elle

    opps:

    spending

    Kelly better save them chips before your posts get re-filed in another category (please reference IJM’s reply 10:14am).

    1200% :)

  • AYANA

    Sounds like someone is “pretend balling” over there. She better slow her roll and stop trying to keep up with the Jones’. I don’t believe Kelly is broke, but when you put out two albums with in 2 years and both of them don’t sell, you had to take a hit in your pockets.

  • Ms. Leyla

    I don’t buy this story for one second.

    Hey Envy <3

  • http://www.myspace.com/msmeka2cute Mz_Magnificent1

    Kelly musta lost her m*thaf*ckin mind…Bono shoulda been paying for her azz!!! HELLO now he is REALLY ballin…no doubt about it and he will stay caked up until he dies. Why? Probably b.cuz he doesn’t do shyt like spend almost half a milli on a drunken nite with friends…

    Kelly was probably so drunk she didn’t realize she was spending that much money…

  • cutie pie

    @MS. LEYLA

    good point!

    co-sign cutie pie-Ms. Leyla DOES have a point,now that I read this again…

  • Baby Please

    yawn

  • so what?!

    Ya’ll always in somebody’s pocket! That chick was with DC as long as Beyonce so she is not broke! Do U Kels..

  • bria

    Kelly Rowland is shooting for her series on the travel channel. That is why she is there. So I doubt if this story is true.

  • lisalisa

    She will be filing for bankruptcy soon.

  • Madame Enigma

    oh uh uh…

  • Lil’ Kevin Mayne

    baby please your gravatar frightens the sh*t out of me

  • MistaO

    *SOMER* Makes the most sense, real talk.

    But other than that, I’d bet the money she spending aint even her own. She probably beding down with one of those dirty rich eastern euros, who kicking her paper on the side…

  • Marshabio

    Yeah, she’s ballin’ alright..

    IN MORE WAYS THAN ONE

  • b.SL

    MM… I hear you, 2cute4u.

    Didn’t realize her and Bono were cool like that?…

  • Baby Please

    @ Lil Kevin Mayne

    I totally thought she looked grandmotherly.

    No?

    LOL

    Kelly better slow her ass down, she know she ain’t sold no records!

    ——

    LOL, you are damn right! chick prolly choked on that bill, but didnt want to diss herself… HAHA! you know she got that Destiny Child money, tztztz, na’mean…

  • Corey

    I know she probably got a little paper, but I can’t see her having no where near enough to be spending that type of dough at a bar in one night. Beyonce, yes. But Kelly? Maybe B let her hold one of her credit cards.

    Lil Kevin Mayne & Baby Please

    I was also scared….BP you look kinda like Ced the Entertainer

    Sorry for the dippin’ but I had chips :)

  • Lady Architect

    I’m pretty sure Kelly still has heavy stacks from DC cause after all they did sell over 100million albums. At the same time no matter how much money you have, 400,000 for alcohol is just plain ridiculous. She needs to invest that so she will forever be rich and it can pass down through her kids, grandkids, etc. That’s why Bonno is rich like he is.

  • SUNNYDAYZ…(JUST GOT MY SECOND WEDDING PLANNING GIG THIS ONE IS BIG I AM SO PROUD OF MYSELF)

    @ LADY ARCHITECT … WELL SAID I WAS ABOUT TO GIVE MY 2 CENTS BUT YOU HIT THE NAIL ON THE HEAD …

  • SUNNYDAYZ…MY COUSIN KENYA WILL BE RUNNING TOMORROW IN THE OLYMPICS 800 METER RACE

    BESIDES THEY HAVE BLACK CARDS UNLIMITED SPENDING LIMITS THAT HAVE TO BE PAID BACK ..HELLO!!

  • NAZIRU FROM GHANA

    DAMN!! THIS MONEY COULD BUILD 10SCHOOLS AND BOREHOLES IN AFRICA FOR CHARITY, KELLY!! THATS TOO MUSH.

  • Mmmmh

    wow, just wow.

  • Mmmmh

    @ Naziru from Ghana, Boreholes?? schools?? Never, that money would go straight into the ‘chiefs’ pocket, like all money goes.

  • CAndy

    I Luv Kelly, but unless your Oprah thats way too much money to blow on a single night. $327K that the cost of damn house , a nice house at that.

  • 2cute4u♥♥♥

    Yeah 6 a.m. it may have been exaggerated a “tad”! I was thinking about how most celebrities actually get paid that kind of money just to make an appearance. And granted Kelly may not be “top notch” but she was a part of a major girl group, even if she did bomb as a solo artist, I don’t think a club would have her come and pay that kind of money for drinks and stuff. If she did that was dumb as hell, cause even major stars with money are cutting back on spending frivilously.

  • kenya

    shoot she’s probably been stacking her dc money and doing other stuff that we don’t know about. alot of celebs do commercials and stuff in other countries and it seems like England loves her. I applaud her generosity and all, but i’m not about to blow 400 g’s on no liquor tab

  • Bubothehater

    Doesn’t Bono know that the money being spent on him coul dhave gone to relieve 3rd world debt? She is spending it because Jay Z will make them do another Destiney’s Child CD

  • CJ

    Umm, Bono is Irish and Irish men love black women. Bono gets crazy when he gets around black women. He can’t keep his hands off. You should watch when he was on Oprah’s show. He was all on Oprah.

  • http://toydogdomain.com MissDiva

    Its a really sad thing when you hear that someone can spend money in that fashion.. When there are so many homeless people and starving children in the world today. She could drop those funds on much needed resources. I know I’m going to catch crap because of this post and I’m sure Kelly gives to charity but it really doesn’t count when all of that money she spent went on booze!! Most of the people she was boozing up most likely have issues with alcohol and didn’t really need to drink.

  • thatbrutha

    good job screwing this story up, Hey GO MC. HAMMER

  • memchee

    that’s $400,000 that could have been invested in stocks, real estate, franchise(s)…..anything that can provide a positive return.

    She was probably overcharged, but wouldn’t have been able to tell anyway.

  • Don’t mind me

    Kellys a classy beautiful lady who comes across aS very approuchable – that bill sound ridiculous but I’m sure you would happily treat her friends- I think shes the bee knees – I respect her for not stooping so low to get the same kind of response from that somewhat tacky industry. Her dignity matters more to her – SHE IS A GOOD ROLE MODEL, LIKE MICHELLE

  • lisalisa

    She should have made Bono pay! He has much more money than she does!

  • bria

    Wow, I wasn’t aware that she had released her tax records. Because you all are talking about this woman’s money like you know something personally. Even if she is spending it you would be amazed at what they write off.

  • none-ya

    Thats crazy but it did the trick. We are all talking about it. You go girl. Bono and every body else in that damn party would have to give me head for that much money!!!! Seriously!!!!!

  • +Lynn

    My dad used to say and it’s true…”a fool and his money are soon parted”….sad…

  • http://blacksnob.blogspot.com/ toboR

    lies…the White House don’t drop this money on drink.
