Kelly Khumalo
is a South African singer and actress who rose to fame during the Cruz gospel concert in 2003, where she wowed crowds with the gospel song U Jesu' phakeme (Jesus is Almighty).

Kelly grew up in the rural outskirts of Nquthu in KwaZulu-Natal. In 2003, she was discovered by Sarah and Bonsai Shongwe when she performed at a Gospel Star search.

Her first performance as a professional artist was in front of a 30,000 strong crowd at a Kaizer Chiefs soccer match. Hardly two months into the music industry she was the opening act for American Rap star Missy Elliot.

Kelly's debut album, TKO was released in August 2005 to much acclaim with the hit song Qinisela. The album was nominated twice at the South African Music Awards (SAMA) and she was the only female artist nominated in the Song of the Year category. The song was her biggest hit and remained on national radio charts for five months.

Kelly Khumalo's second album Itshitshi was released at the end of 2006. The album was also nominated for a SAMA, as well as her third album, titled Lobola.
