Actress Sharon Stone just set the record straight on a surprising industry rumor. The Hollywood A-lister confirmed she once went on a date with Nelly but revealed it never went any further.
During her appearance on “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen,” Stone admitted the long-whispered story was true, though no second date was necessary.

Before spinning the block with Ashanti, Nelly was still keeping his options open. He previously dated Shantel Jackson for several years before reuniting with his now-wife in 2021 at a Verzuz battle. The couple wed on December 27th, 2023.
Nelly and Ashanti welcomed their son last summer, celebrating his first birthday a few weeks ago with a Kunda and Friends-themed party. LL Cool J, Lloyd, and even the co-creator of the series flew in from Uganda to join the festivities.
While Nelly and Stone’s brief outing is solidified in pop culture history, both have moved on to bigger and better things.
