(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Kelis has a "huge phobia" of rodents.

The award-winning songstress, who is best known for her hit single Milkshake, has revealed her biggest fear in a magazine interview.

The stunning star says she doesn't understand why the animals were put on the earth.

"Rodents," she replied when asked what she is most scared of. "I have a huge phobia. They're atrocious. Revolting. I hate vermin! I have a firm belief that God created everything for a purpose and I've yet to figure out theirs."

Kelis also revealed she has no time for judgemental people. The singer says that although she hates it when people are too opinionated, she feels upset with herself when she lets it get to her.

"Nowadays I feel most ashamed when I lose my temper. I lose it around judgemental people," she explained in an interview with Attitude magazine. "I think it's OK to have an opinion, but I think there's a fine line between opinion and judgement, and it's in how you say it." (C) Cover Media
