Having a newborn baby has become expensive for rapper Nas. 

A judge ordered Nas to pay $44,000 a month in child support to R&B singer Kelis. 

Kelis gave birth July 22 to the ex-couple’s son named Knight Jones.  Kelis filed for divorce in April (three months before the baby was born).

Kelis will  get $44,000 a month for the child which is about $1,466 per day.  That is one expensive baby. 

What could that baby need that’s going to cost $1,466 per day? Bottles and diapers don’t cost that much.

Maybe I’m just jealous because I didn’t get $1,466 per day when my parents divorced.
