Whew! Roommates, Nelly flew out to Las Vegas and got on his Chrisean Rock! The rapper checked in with his “baby” Ashanti via Instagram Live overnight on Sunday (Feb. 11). While on his way to a performance, he told the R&B singer that he lost his bottom tooth in Sin City!
“We on our way to Marquee, Super Bowl weekend,” Nelly said, revealing his nightclub booking. “Sh*t so motherf**king crazy, I done knocked my damn tooth out my mouth.”
From the looks of it, though, Ashanti already knew what was up because she was mid-laugh when she joined Nelly’s Instagram livestream.
Dressed in a baby blue top, matching eyeshadow, and silver hoop earrings, Ashanti got her laugh off while kicking it on a couch. Another woman in her company also got a couple of kikis in when she glanced at Nelly’s toothless image on the screen.
And here’s the part that had Ashanti extra weak: this isn’t the first time Nelly has lost the tooth! Apparently, she found it for him “last time” in Miami.
“Where are the spares,” Ashanti asked, saying she had some for him while screaming with laughter. When he asked her if she still loved him, the singer responded, “Of course.”
Her ultimate suggestion? Put in a “chicklet.”
See the hilarious interaction for yourself below.
It’s unclear if Ashanti is also in Las Vegas, where NFL fans are just hours away from watching the Kansas City Chiefs and San Francisco 49ers go head-to-head in this year’s Super Bowl.
On Feb. 7, the singer was in New York performing at Adore Me’s show for New York Fashion Week, per Getty Images. Yesterday, she acknowledged the event on her Instagram page. Meanwhile, amid her kii with Nelly online, she shared footage of another performance in Fresno, California.
She could likely be joining her man in Vegas later today. However, the couple didn’t discuss their travel plans with their combined 12.3 million followers.
For those just catching up, Nelly and Ashanti spun the block for each other early last year! Rumblings of getting back together started in December 2022. But fans really began putting two-and-two together after they attended a boxing match together in April.
Months later, in September, Nelly seemingly confirmed they were back together. Within the same week, Ashanti rocked a clutch featuring a 2003 picture of them on the VMAs’ red carpet. In October, Nelly gifted Ashanti a diamond necklace for her 43rd birthday, and the following month, she gifted him a brand-new car for his 49th.
In December, US Weekly exclusively reported that the rekindled couple is expecting their first child together. However, neither Ashanti nor Nelly have confirmed or denied the news. Nonetheless, speculation about whether Ashanti is pregnant has continued online with her every pop-pout.
