It included her joint worldwide number-one single "Dilemma" with rapper Nelly, as well as subsequent singles "Stole", "Can't Nobody" and "Train on a Track". Following the group's disbandment in 2005, Rowland released her second solo album Ms. Kelly in 2007. Considerably less successful than its predecessor, the album produced the hit singles "Like This" and "Work". In 2009, Rowland scored her second number-one hit with French DJ David Guetta on his single, "When Love Takes Over". The song resulted into their 2010 joint single "Commander". This was Rowland's third number-one hit on the Hot Dance Club Songs chart and first offering from her third album Here I Am. In 2011, Rowland's single "Motivation" featuring Lil Wayne reached number-one on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs charts.

Apart from her work in music, Rowland has also launched a career in film and television. In 2002, she made her debut with guest stints on sitcom series such as The Hughleys and Taina, prior to appearing in the big-screen movies like the horror film Freddy vs. Jason (2003) and the romantic comedy The Seat Filler (2004). In 2009, she served as the host of the first season of the Bravo competition series The Fashion Show alongside Isaac Mizrahi. In 2011, Rowland joined the judging panel on the eighth series of the British reality television competition The X Factor

Kelly Rowland discography:
American R&B recording artist Kelly Rowland began her career in 1997 with one of the best-selling American girl groups, Destiny's Child, who have sold around 50 million records worldwide. Her discography, as a solo artist, began in 2002 and includes three studio albums, two compilation albums, two extended plays, twenty-six singles, including ten as a featured artist, and two DVD albums.

Rowland began her solo career in 2002 with the release of her debut album Simply Deep, which contained influences of alternative-R&B and rock music. It included her joint worldwide number-one single "Dilemma" with rapper Nelly, which was certified three-times platinum in Australia. Other singles released from the album include "Stole", "Can't Nobody" and "Train on a Track". "Stole" peaked in the top thirty of the US Billboard Hot 100 and top five in most other regions, including in Australia and the United Kingdom where it reached number two. "Can't Nobody" and "Train on a Track" also respectively reached the top five and top twenty in the UK, but failed to impact in other regions. The album was a commercial success; more than 2.5 million copies were sold worldwide. It was subsequently certified platinum in the United Kingdom, and gold in Australia, Canada, and the United States.

In 2005, Destiny's Child released their final album before disbanding the following year. Rowland prepared her next studio album initially under the title My Story. However this was revamped and finally released in 2007 as Ms. Kelly. It featured the moderately successful lead single, "Like This" (with Eve), and the international hit single "Work". A third single "Ghetto", with Snoop Dogg, was released but did not chart. The re-releases of the album also included another moderately successful single, "Daylight", with Travis McCoy. Despite selling 1.2 million copies worldwide, the album was considerably less successful than its predecessor, having failed to earn any chart certificates. During this time, Rowland also featured Trina's 2005 single, "Here We Go", which peaked at top-twenty in the United Kingdom, New Zealand, and the United States.

In 2009, Columbia Records ended their contract with Rowland due to the lack of commercial success with Ms. Kelly. Since then, Rowland worked on a number of collaborations with European singers; most notably French singer Nâdiya, Italian singer Tiziano Ferro, and French DJ David Guetta. Rowland collaborated with Guetta for several songs on his One Love album. This included Rowland's feature on the worldwide dance hit "When Love Takes Over". Following the success of the single, she announced that her next studio album would be more up-tempo with dance and Europop influences. She has since signed to Universal Motown Records. In 2010, Rowland released "Everywhere You Go" (with Rhythm of Africa) for the 2010 FIFA World Cup, recorded a version of "Wonderful Christmastime" for the album Now That's What I Call Christmas! 4, and featured on UK grime artist Tinie Tempah's single "Invincible", taken from his debut album Disc-Overy.

Rowland's third album Here I Am was released in July 2011, which debuted at number three on the US Billboard 200, and number one on the Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums chart. The album's international lead single "Commander" (with David Guetta) topped the US Hot Dance Club Songs chart, and reached the top ten in the UK and some of Europe. Other singles released from the album include "Rose Colored Glasses", Forever and a Day", "Motivation", "Lay It on Me" and "Down for Whatever". "Motivation" (with Lil Wayne) became Rowland's best charting single in the US since 2002's "Dilemma", reaching number 17 on the Billboard Hot 100 and number one on the Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs chart. It was subsequently certified platinum by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). The album's final single "Down for Whatever" (with The WAV.s) reached the top ten in the UK. Much like her second album, Here I Am was also unsuccessful, having failed to earn any chart certificates. Throughout 2011, Rowland worked on a number of collaborations with American and European artists; most notably Italian DJ Alex Gaudino, American R&B singer Lonny Bereal, and American rappers Verse Simmonds and Nelly. ...
