Kelis Called Out for Exploiting Colombian Artisans


Last year recording artist Kelis moved to Colombia with her second husband and bought a farm [click here if you missed that].

Now Kelis is being accused of exploiting Colombian workers...

In a post on Instagram where Kelis was selling authentic Colombian bags for $150 a pop a native Colombian questioned if the women who made the bags were being paid adequately after pointing out that the bags only cost $40 on the streets of Colombia.

Instead of addressing the question Kelis argued that her prices were very reasonable considering their prices in Miami.






The criticism was later deleted.
