1
00:00:00,040 --> 00:00:03,280
Speaker 1: You're on Airthryan Seacrest, and the formula for a number

2
00:00:03,320 --> 00:00:05,120
Speaker 1: one hit back in the two thousand seem to be

3
00:00:05,519 --> 00:00:07,680
Speaker 1: to pair a big wrapper with a female pop star

4
00:00:07,760 --> 00:00:09,479
Speaker 1: providing the hook, But with Nellie and Ashanti, it also

5
00:00:09,480 --> 00:00:11,159
Speaker 1: turned out to be the recipe for much more of

6
00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,440
Speaker 1: a successful marriage. The fellow superstars tied thenot in twenty

7
00:00:14,480 --> 00:00:17,159
Speaker 1: twenty three and share a child together, Kareem, who was

8
00:00:17,160 --> 00:00:19,560
Speaker 1: born just last July. But this isn't the first time

9
00:00:19,560 --> 00:00:21,599
Speaker 1: Nellie and Ashanti have been together. They dated on and

10
00:00:21,640 --> 00:00:23,680
Speaker 1: off for nearly a decade, beginning in twenty thirteen before

11
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:26,040
Speaker 1: going their separate ways. So what made it click for

12
00:00:26,120 --> 00:00:27,960
Speaker 1: them the second time around? For Nelly, it came down

13
00:00:28,000 --> 00:00:30,120
Speaker 1: to destinying the mutual understanding that the bond they have

14
00:00:30,240 --> 00:00:30,720
Speaker 1: as special.

15
00:00:31,080 --> 00:00:33,479
Speaker 2: I think, like a lot of stuff, you know when

16
00:00:33,520 --> 00:00:38,080
Speaker 2: you separate, if it's something that truly is meant to be,

17
00:00:38,520 --> 00:00:44,120
Speaker 2: it'll be. And if it's something that you find out

18
00:00:44,159 --> 00:00:50,320
Speaker 2: that it actually brings you more joy than you know not.

19
00:00:51,360 --> 00:00:54,200
Speaker 2: And I base that on any relationship with anybody that

20
00:00:54,240 --> 00:00:56,319
Speaker 2: I have in my life, does this person bring more

21
00:00:56,360 --> 00:00:59,440
Speaker 2: good than it brings bad? So it doesn't matter who

22
00:00:59,440 --> 00:01:03,000
Speaker 2: it is, and if they don't, then I politely remove myself.

23
00:01:03,360 --> 00:01:07,160
Speaker 2: And if it does, then you understand and you continue

24
00:01:07,240 --> 00:01:11,480
Speaker 2: on with the bonding. But I think with this it

25
00:01:11,560 --> 00:01:14,080
Speaker 2: was it was. I guess it was meant to be, man,

26
00:01:14,160 --> 00:01:21,959
Speaker 2: and you know we both enjoyed it. Yeah, like we're married. Nah,

27
00:01:22,120 --> 00:01:22,800
Speaker 2: so do man.

28
00:01:23,120 --> 00:01:25,160
Speaker 1: You gotta love that Nellie and a Shanty ended up together,

29
