Kelis has admitted that she still feels that London has problems with race "that need to be addressed". 

The 'Trick Me' singer recently took a flight from the England's capital across to Spain and found herself a victim of racial abuse as directed at her by a fellow passenger. She explained to her fans on Twitter than a man called her a "disgusting Nigerian" and a "slave". 

Speaking backstage after Vivienne Westwood's London Fashion Week runway show, Kelis revealed to the Evening Standard that although the issue has since been recognised it is still evident:

"Yes, it was a terrible thing to happen, but I'm a strong person and I can take it. I won't let that ruin anything for me."

"I have been coming to London for years because I love it here, I always have. But there are problems in this city that need to be addressed."
