Beach babe! Kelly Rowland flaunts her legs on Miami Beach as she laughs giddily with friends
|
She is rumoured to be 'in the mix' to replaced Britney Spears on the next season of X Factor USA.
So perhaps that was why Kelly Rowland looked so cheerful during a recent beach outing.
The 32-year-old seemed positively giddy as she laughed while flaunting her slender legs on Miami Beach, Florida, with a group of friends on Sunday.

The Destiny's Child star was seen lounging on a sunbed on the white sand, casually bending her legs in the air as she texted on her cellphone.
Kelly - who lives in Miami - wore a black bandeau bikini top, but opted to cover up with a long green kaftan that she just rolled down while she tanned.
The singer wore a jaunty fedora to block out the sun's rays, and accessorised with a layered gold necklace and large white studs.

At one point, Kelly was seen sitting on the edge of her sun lounger, a huge smile on her face as she either listened to music or chatted to a friend using a hands-free kit.
She also hung out with some friends who sat with her on her sunbed, and at one point she was seen kissing a male friend on the lips as he bent over her.
Kelly clearly had lots of energy as she was then spotted jogging across the sand, laughing and calling to her friends.

It is rumoured that the star is set to join Simon Cowell on the X Factor USA - despite being booted off the UK show.
Simon, 53, remains a 'big fan' of the singer even though she was replaced by Nicole Scherzinger on the X Factor UK last year, a source told MailOnline.
And Kelly is now 'most definitely in the mix' to replace Britney Spears on the third season of the Fox talent show, which airs later this year.

Kelly - who was reunited with her Destiny's Child bandmates during Beyonce's Super Bowl extravaganza in February - appeared as a judge on the X Factor UK in 2011.
However, her appearance was blighted by illness that kept her at home in the States for a week - prompting reports that TV bosses were unimpressed that she had even flown back to the US when she should have been mentoring her contestants in Britain.
Kelly also reportedly tried to demand that her £500,000 pay be tripled if she made a return.

And last May announced her departure from the series, saying: 'I love the UK and being part of the show last year. Mentoring the girls was such an incredible experience I will never forget.
'I would like to thank Simon for the great opportunity and asking me to be a judge last season.'
At the time, a spokeswoman for the star blamed 'global commitments coupled with the show's increasing demands' for Kelly's departure - although bosses felt that she had never quite gelled with the TV audience.
