Nelly & Ashanti 'Still Together' 7/24/08

Rapper Nelly is still dating singer Ashanti despite recent rumors of a split. The couple has been romantically involved since 2003, but they were rumored to have gone their separate ways earlier this month (Jul08) after the New York Daily News quoted Ashanti as saying, "I'm dating my new album, and no one else."

However, according to website Usmagazine.com, their relationship is still going strong. A source says, "(They) are definitely very much still together."

R&B star Ashanti recently collaborated with her beau for a song on her album The Declaration, which was released last month (Jun08). She returned the favor by lending vocals to Nelly's new track Body On Me, from his forthcoming album Brass Knuckles.
