The St. Louis rap legend is now married to Ashanti though they recently had an awkward issue over his support of Donald Trump with her mother also disagreeing with his decision to perform at the Republican’s inauguration.
In a clip from their new reality show Nelly & Ashanti: We Belong Together, Ashanti and her mother are discussing that an offer was made to Nelly for the event.
Ashanti attempts to defend Nelly’s reasoning for appearing at the inauguration, saying: “This is more about the opportunity of performing at the White House as opposed to performing for a particular candidate.”
Tina then says that “This is very emotional for me,” as she reflected on the civil rights struggle and her own father’s role in 1960s activism.
Ashanti’s mom then urged her to speak up and voice her feelings regarding the performance, saying: “As your mom and your manager, it’s my job to make sure you can voice your opinion on what you feel and what you know.”
Nelly then appeared in the scene and confirmed that he would be performing at the inauguration.
Nelly previously defended his decision to perform at the event, saying that he was not motivated by politics.
He said: “I’m not doing this for money. I’m doing this because it’s an honor. I respect the office. It don’t matter who is in office. The same way that our men and women, our brothers and sisters who protect this country, have to go to war and put their lives on the line for whoever is in office. If they can put their life on the line for whoever’s in office, I can damn sure perform.”
