Kelis has a tattoo on her right wrist saying “Musicum Nuntius Deus”.
Her tattoo is a Latin phrase which translates as “God’s musical messenger”, not her name as some people mistakenly believe!
Her father is a minister and she takes her faith very seriously, she has said in many interviws that she considers her voice a gift from God! The tattoo uses a simple cursive font designed to look like handwritting.
