For K. Michelle it seems like Idris Elba is the one that got away. During a recent interview at the Russ Parr morning show K. Michelle broke down while discussing the romance with the actor that inspired her latest album, “Anybody Wanna Buy a Heart?”
The pair has been rumored to be dating for months but K. Michelle has denied any romantic involvement with the actor until now. Elba produced K. Michelle’s musical “The Rebellious Soul,” last year.
K. Michelle refers to herself as the black Taylor Swift when it comes to writing about her relationships. In the interview she says that though the actor understands her music to be art he is still bothered with some of its content.
After meeting the British actor at the Soul Train awards the two embarked on an eight month love affair.
K. Michelle says the breakup occurred because of bad timing. Elba welcomed a baby with girlfriend Naiyana Garth last year.
“We had such a creative situation and relationship that I thank him for a lot of things. He brought that music out of me. He taught me a lot,” she admitted.
The interview had to be cut short because the singer broke down while explaining her relationship with the actor. Do you think it was appropriate for the singer to put her relationship with the famous actor on front street? Was this just a ploy to boost her record sales?
