In 2006, Kelly released her second album Ms. Kelly that included international hits “Like This” and “Work”. Throughout her career, Kelly has sold over 30 million records as a solo artist and a further 60 million records with Destiny’s Child.

Kelly said of her upcoming appearance “I’m coming back Australia! I’m really excited to be returning down under to perform at The TAB Everest!”
