Speculation of an engagement between singer Ashanti and her rumored boyfriend rapper Nelly has been put to rest, with the songstress telling a U.S. publication that they are simply “good friends”.
Reports of a romance between the pair pops up from time to time, however, Ashanti has downplayed the talk, telling People.com, “Me and Nelly, we’re good friends. We kick it � hang out a lot. The industry is very hard, so it’s good to have fun and lighten it up.”
When asked if she had become engaged to the rapper, Ashanti held up her left hand waving a ring-less finger saying, “Oh no. Noooo! No engagement. But definitely in the future.”
