In an explosive revelation that has sent shockwaves through the entertainment world, Nelly has publicly humiliated Ashanti by admitting he once had a crush on Beyoncé before they got together. During a recent interview with Extra, the couple was asked about their first meeting, but Nelly’s nostalgic references to his past attempts to woo Beyoncé have raised eyebrows and sparked outrage among fans.
Nelly recounted his failed attempts to win over the pop icon in the early 2000s, including a notorious moment at the Source Awards where he attempted to impress her with Popeye’s chicken—her favorite food. This throwback has left many fans questioning Nelly’s loyalty and intentions, interpreting his comments as a suggestion that Beyoncé was his first choice, not Ashanti.
The backlash has been swift. Fans are taking to social media to express their discontent, calling Nelly “corny” and accusing him of being desperate. Critics argue that his references to Beyoncé during a moment meant to celebrate his relationship with Ashanti are insensitive and inappropriate. The situation has been further complicated by recent incidents, including a live stream where Nelly disregarded Ashanti’s privacy while she was breastfeeding, leading to accusations that he is not fully committed to their marriage.
As the controversy unfolds, Ashanti’s fanbase is increasingly turning against Nelly, questioning the strength and sincerity of their relationship. With mounting scrutiny and public opinion shifting, the future of this newly married couple hangs in the balance. Will Nelly’s past haunt their present, or can they overcome this latest scandal? Only time will tell, but for now, the drama continues to unfold.
