This past weekend, Nelly and Ashanti performed together on stage at Nelly’s 5th Annual Ball in St. Louis. Well, Ashanti (dressed in a skintight catsuit) sang, and Nelly simply played the role of her boytoy.

Their chemistry and couple status (no matter how much they deny it) was on full display as Ashanti pranced around, playfully teasing him.

Nelly’s holiday gala is held every year to present scholarships to kids in the area.
