Our favorite thicky-kins Ashanti performed at some Hennessey event this past week in Chicago. Nothing too interesting, but anything to help those albums sales a bit. Times are rough…

Ashanti and Nelly performed on the Jay Leno Show, but it looked more as though Ashanti was using the performance to make a statement. She’s seen her man in all those Sean John ads if you haven’t seen them, and wanted to let all the ladies know that whatever muscles ya’ll thought ya’ll were going to feel, she ain’t having it. And she brought her thick ass thighs as reinforcements. Keep bothering her man if you want to…

Ashanti graces the cover of the newest edition of Jet magazine. In the past, we have not been big fans of Ashanti’s music, but she seems to be stepping her game up a tad. Here is a new track from her and Robin Thicke called “Things You Make Me Do.” It’s kinda alright, she has definitely come a long way from when she used always say, “It’s Bananas.” Check it out below:

Ashanti performed last Friday in NYC, and we are all so lucky to get an upskirt peek of her bootycheeks.

She’s looking thick in all the right places these days. That master cleanse diet seems to work wonders for people, that is, if you are willing to starve yourself for weeks at a time.

SMH at Sean Kingston and that damn crayon chain.

Yesterday, on the Wendy Williams radio show, Irv Gotti reportedly admitted to having an affair with Ashanti while he was the ‘married’ CEO of Murder Inc. He also admitted to being on Viagra and E’d up when he was hittin’ Ashanti during their affair.

This is not really news, just about everyone in the industry has fu*ked for some tracks at some point in their career. Even Kim Porter could probably tell Ashanti was Irv’s side deal when she was ridin’ with Murder Inc.

Vanessa Carlton signed with Irv, you know she has watched some Viagra pill poppin’ already.

After Nelly reportedly dumped Ashanti for creepin’ with Irv Gotti “again” and Bossip spies spotted Nelly flirting and looking very single at R. Kelly’s album release party and Jermaine’ Dupri’s cafe in Atlanta over the weekend, Ashanti has now taken Nelly off her Myspace. Irv is at the top!

The low-rent Joe Camel and Beyonce are over. Summer is heating up and you can probably expect some Nelly disses on Murder Inc’s new material.

Where is the “go to” place to see whether break-up rumors are true in 07? Myspace. Rumors are swirling that Ashanti and Nelly recently broke up and that she never got over Irv Gotti who has a wife and kids and was her “Boss” over at Murder Inc. Nelly reportedly found out about Ashanti creepin with Irv again and it’s splitsvile. On Nelly’s Myspace, Ashanti is suddenly and surprisingly missing. Mya makes the ‘ top ten’ Myspace cut though.

Not a good look for Nelly if this is true , dissed by Beyonce for Joe Camel and now Irv owns him with Ashanti. SMH.

Is Nelly and Ashanti’s relationship going down the crapper?? Despite Wendy Williams saying that it’s rock solid, there’s still rumors floating. If the break-up is true, it’s a shame because even though they both annoy me to high hell, I still think they make a cute couple.

Ashanti was recently spotted shopping in Beverly Hills looking kinda thick. With Nelly’s money now in the mix, no need to rush an album out or actually do anything productive, “just shop and eat” may be her steez.

Vibe Magazine is reporting they are hearing Ashanti and Nelly got engaged over Christmas and are waiting for “confirmation” from their reps later today. One of the more authentic, “down to earth”, and good looking couples out there.

Ashanti visited TRL yesterday and this is Halle early this month at the 2006 BAFTA LA Cunard Britannia Award. WE MUST ASK, WHO LOOKED MORE BANGIN?

Ashanti, after messing around with Irv Gotti on the low seems to have found a solid relationship with Nelly. They were spotted at Tao’s 6th Anniversary in Las Vegas Friday night which was hosted by Nick Cannon. Bossip was the first to break that Nick is currently seeing the beautiful actress/model Joy Bryant last week.

What happened to the bangin Dominican model that Kimora reportedly was about to beat down for dating Russell Simmons? She has been spotted with club Tao owner Noah Tepperberg a lot this year and was spotted with Noah at the Tao party Friday night. Her myspace says she is single so who knows what type of deal is going on here. Russell may have been beat out by a chubby club owner/promoter who is losing his hair while in his early 30′s. SMH, step your game up old man Russell.

ASHANTI PREGNANT!

…But one insider tells MediaTakeOut.com that she believes the father of the child is Irv Gotti, the married head of Ashanti’s record label. Gotti, who openly admits to cheating on his wife, was linked romantically to Ashanti early in her career. The two reportedly rekindled their romance earlier this year while working on her new album…
