AP, Jan 9, 2009 10:00 pm PST
R. Kelly can officially bump and grind with whomever he chooses: He has finalized his divorce from his wife.

Kelly and his former wife, Andrea, confirmed they were officially divorced after 11 years of marriage.

A joint statement on Thursday said they had reached an amicable resolution concerning all issues related to their marriage and will share joint custody of their three children.

Kelly — known for the hits "Bump N' Grind," "I'm a Flirt," "Trapped in the Closet," "I Believe I Can Fly" and many others — was acquitted of child pornography charges last year. Kelly turned 42 on Thursday.
