Roommates, Kelis is THE birthday! On August 21, the ‘Milkshake’ singer celebrated her 47th birthday and treated fans to a fitness look that had them mentioning that same song.
If aging like fine winewere a person, Kelis would arguably be in the top spot for the title! She had fan heads on a swivel on Friday (August 21) after her fitness look dump on Instagram. The singer wore a pink sports bra paired with bright purple biker shorts, black sneakers, and a North Face workout vest. She had her pink-and-purple locs tied into a ponytail. Ultimately, she flexed her body -ody, -ody from multiple angles, including the back.
“Happy Bday to me 47 today remember ladies take care of your skin get you some Black Dont Crack sunscreen x Skin Food x Rosehip & Turmeric and preserve your glow #skincare #happybirthday #bday #hike #outdoors,” Kelis’ caption read.
In one day, Kelis’ birthday post collected over 3,700 comments and nearly 70,000 likes. Both celebs and fans flooded her with birthday wishes and compliments, especially on her physique.

At least once a year, the singer stops fans in their tracks, effortlessly pulling them into her comment section. In 2024, she caused an internet commotion with her pop-out in Africa, namely her visit to Zanzibar. Fans primarily highlighted that it appeared Kelis, 44 at the time, was aging backwards.
Then, in April 2025, she posted herself rocking greyish-purple cornrows at hip length. Again, fans flooded her with compliments. Fast-forward to the end of 2025, Kelis was trending while turning heads once more. That time it was for steamy bikini photos that agin proved aging is doing Ms. Kelis all the justice!
