Ashanti couldn’t stop laughing at Nelly’s expense after the rapper lost his tooth in Las Vegas during Super Bowl weekend.
In a video posted on Instagram by Nelly, the “My Place” star shows off his missing tooth to the camera and lets out a whistle before saying: “I knocked my goddamn tooth out my mouth.”

Nelly and Ashanti originally dated between 2003 and 2013 before reconnecting last year and later announcing they were back together.
Ashanti’s close collaborator Ja Rule recently hinted at why the couple rekindled their romance.
“Her and my wife, they do their ha-ha ki-ki-ing, right? And so, you can tell sometimes when women want that old thing back,” he said during an appearance on the Tamron Hall Show.
“I don’t wanna blow sis up! But the chemistry was there. And I think for both of them, it came back quick. I think they missed each other. The way they clicked just came back so fast.”

Fat Joe also revealed that the two reunited at his 2021 Verzuz battle against Ja, which appeared to be the first time they had seen each other in a long while.
“I immediately tell them I need 10 percent of this kid because if it wasn’t for Verzuz, that I brought Nelly out [during] me against Ja Rule, that’s when they saw each other and energy connected again,” he joked during a recent Instagram Live.
“That’s when he said, ‘I gotta have her.’ He was over there contemplating; he really wanted to go over there.”
