Bill Murray, 74, has finally addressed the dating rumors about him and singer Kelis, who is nearly 30 years younger. During an appearance on SiriusXM’s Sway in the Morning on Feb. 28, the Ghostbusters star denied that he had been in a relationship with the 45-year-old entertainer. “I got great press that I was dating her, which really raised my cred,” he said. Murray laughed off the rumors, admitting that he had first discovered Kelis when she featured in rapper Ol' Dirty Bastard’s 1999 hit “Got Your Money.” He recalled being intrigued by the “girl with the red hair” and later sought to meet her. “She turned out to be spectacular,” he said, adding that they recently spoke and he learned she had bought land in Kenya, where she plans to start a farm. The rumors had resurfaced after Kelis' second husband, Mike Mora, died in 2022, and she was spotted with Murray at her performances. However, Kelis quickly denied any romantic involvement in a June 2023 Instagram post, stating that while the rumors were amusing, she and Murray were simply friends, both “blessed, rich, and happy.”
