Ashanti and Nelly Playfully Roast Each Other’s 2000s Style on Reality Show

The music duo Ashanti and Nelly recently sparked buzz on social media with their humorous throwback fashion ratings during a promo for their show We Belong Together. Reflecting on their iconic 2000s looks—baggy jeans, grills, jerseys, and Nelly’s signature under-eye band-aid—they hilariously rated each other’s style from that era.

Nelly kicked off with a confident score:

“I’d give you an 8 out of 10. You were killin’ it back then—even without the hips, baby hair, and multiple layers. That was an era!”

In response, Ashanti flashed a 2003 photo of Nelly and joked:

“I’d give you a 6. Cute, but not quite there yet!”

The reaction from the crowd was lively, with Nelly humorously protesting:

“A six? I gave you an eight without hips, and you hit me with a six? That’s cold!”

Fans React to the Fun Roast

The clip quickly went viral, with fans praising the playful interaction. Many shared memes and comments celebrating their relationship, like:

“Married for years and still roasting each other—ultimate couple goals!”

“She gave him a six after 25 years and a child? Legendary!”

Ashanti tried to boost Nelly’s confidence, saying:

“Your smile then? A perfect 10. Your energy? A 10. But that band-aid? Maybe a three!”

Nelly quipped back:

“That band-aid made me millions!”

Reflecting on Their Growth

Sharing their thoughts, both artists acknowledged how far they’ve come. Nelly remarked:

“Looking at those old photos, we were just kids, but we looked fly for our time.”

Ashanti added with pride:

“We grew up in front of the cameras. If someone told me in 2003 I’d be married with a baby and on reality TV, I’d have thought they were crazy!”

Nelly concluded:

“If love is real, it finds its way back. Even if she gave me a six, I always knew she was the one.”

Throwback Looks and Social Media Buzz

Following the segment, social media flooded with nostalgic photos of Ashanti and Nelly in their iconic 2000s attire. Fans joked about Nelly’s durag and Ashanti’s youthful style, with one quipping, “Nelly’s durags deserve awards!”

Ashanti later clarified: “I was just playing. I love my husband, and we both looked wild back then, but that’s what made us who we are.”

Nelly responded with laughing emojis, saying, “Still not over it, though!”
