Does Nelly Have A “Hall Pass?”
Ashanti and Nelly pulled up to Complex’s ‘GOAT Talk’ and had fans cracking up as they dished on everything from early 2000s drip to red carpet regrets. But when the convo shifted to their “GOAT hall pass,” Nelly wasn’t having it—and he made sure everyone knew exactly where he stands.
As Ashanti read the card asking them to name their ultimate hall pass, before she could blink, her hubby shut it all the way down. Ashanti couldn’t help but cheer him on as Nelly doubled down, saying there’s no way he’d take that bait. One thing about it—this man values his peace!
“That’s a dum**ss question,” Nelly said with zero hesitation. “Who do y’all think y’all about to set up with that sh*t? I could never fall for that trap. Who answered that with their wife sitting across from them?”
Social Media Is Cacklin’
Folks flooded Complex’s Instagram comments hyping up Nelly for his quick shutdown, calling him “husband material energy.” Many praised Ashanti’s beauty, saying she’s the real hall pass and that Nelly knows exactly what he’s got. Fans were also showing love to their chemistry, calling them “goals” and “the couple we didn’t know we needed.”
One Instagram user @baby_bluebeverly shared, “Idc idc I love them and I love the show“
Ashanti & Nelly Are Giving “Couple Goals”
Now, the couple is letting fans into their world with their new show, ‘Nelly & Ashanti: We Belong Together.’ In a recent episode, the pair opened up about Nelly going on tour and how that could affect his time at home with their baby boy, Kareem Kenkaide Haynes—who turns one on July 18, 2025. As a first-time mom, Ashanti kept it real about feeling “a little sad” over his upcoming time away, even joking about calling Live Nation to adjust the schedule! She also teased Nelly for his ability to sleep through Kareem’s cries, side-eyeing him when he asked, “Do y’all really be up at night?”
And, the couple stays going viral with their playful energy, and a recent moment is no exception. In a viral clip, Ashanti is seen lounging on Nelly’s lap as he playfully raps, “Throw them D’s on my face. Double D’s on my face,” clearly referencing her curves. Meanwhile, Ashanti laughs and kisses his head before joking, “You are so stupid.” From throwback vocals to flirty banter, they keep fans locked in with every post!
