About Kelly Rowland

• 天命真女合唱團團員凱莉蘿蘭，與饒舌歌手尼力合唱的年度最風光單曲「左右為難」（ Dilemma ），不但在 Billboard 創下連續 8週冠軍，在英國雙週冠軍，而今年葛萊美獎也拿到「年度最佳唱片」和「最佳饒舌演唱組合」兩項提名，凱莉蘿蘭首次以個人的名聲出輯，跨刀與尼力對唱這首單曲，不但為歌曲加分不少，在 MV裡神采亮麗的凱莉更是令人印象深刻，倆人就像是一對男俊女俏的銀幕佳偶，令人稱羨！凱莉和尼力都因為這次的合作，雙雙在樂壇聲名大噪搶盡風頭！原本這首熱門單曲只有收錄在尼力的新專輯中，但在全球各國天命真女和凱莉的歌迷們極力爭取下，從新的一年開始，凱莉在去年 11月發行的首張個人專輯「深情摯愛」（ Simply Deep ）也正式改版，應歌迷要求加收單曲「左右為難」，讓喜愛凱莉的歌迷可以收藏。
