(Cover) - EN Star Style - Kelis bought an outfit from a sex shop to wear for the release of her single.

The American singer has revealed that one of her more outrageous costumes a skin-tight pink one-piece with giant hoof-like shoes donned during the release of her single Acapella from album Flesh Tone last year - was in actually fact from a kinky shop.

The 31-year-old, who is known for her distinctive dress style, said the look made her feel more wild, free and feral.

Oh yeah, this is like a year ago when Acapella was coming out and everything was going crazy, the singer told GraziaDaily when shown a photograph of herself in the remarkable outfit. At that time I was feeling very animalistic so I decided to go for my Alexander McQueen hooves, a latex catsuit from a sex shop, a lovely little Stella McCartney blazer and a tail. I mean, why not?

However, the successful recording artist portrays more sensible tastes when it comes to what she eats.

The New-Yorker insists what you put in your mouth can have a significant impact on your mood and make you happy or sad, so it is important to treat yourself to quality cuisine when you can.

I dont like to lower my standards where food is concerned. I always think its important to eat well, and I dont mean, like, loads of greenery, she said. I mean, eat really good food and indulge yourself. Food is such an important thing and it can make you happy or make you feel worse if its not right. (C) Cover Media
