ATL, what's happenin'?

[Ashanti] Previously, onNelly
and Ashanti: We Belong Together.

Here's KK!

I'm insanely
infatuated with my son.

Hi, baby!

I love you.

What about me?
I'm on the edge of the bed.

Nobody gives a damn about Daddy.

Oh, oh, my God.

[Nelly] Oh, the baby's asleep.

Wake your ass up. It's Daddy.

[Ashanti] No! Stop.

[Tina] Every single time
a woman has a baby,

somebody's gonna get neglected.

What about where
KK's gonna go to school?

If it was in New York,
it would be amazing.

We didn't really finalize
where we were gonna live

before we got married.

I've made it very clear,

even before KK,
before the "I do's", how I felt.

I'm not living in New York.

I'm not turning 50.

[woman] What you turning?

-I'm turning 49, 9, 9, 9.
-[all laughing]

We are getting ready to
celebrate Nelly's 50th birthday,

and I'm throwing
the birthday bash.

We need to finalize
the guest list, get the cake,

take out your notes.
It's a lot.

There's so much on my plate.

[upbeat music]

[Tina] They're here!

[all cheering]

Surprise! Happy birthday!

[all laughing
and talking at once]

[Ashanti] We did it!

[guests laughing]

[Ashanti] Go out there and see
what else is out there.

[Robert]

[Nelly] In front of-- it is.

It's supposed to say,
"Happy fucking birthday."

[Ashanti] Finally,
we're in Vegas.

This is the big one.

It's the big five-O.

It's his 50th birthday.

[Tina] Everything looks so nice.

[Nelly] Who doesn't like Vegas?

I guess if you don't gamble,
you don't like Vegas, but...

The Haynes side,
that's a gambling family.

My grandparents,
rest their soul, they gambled.

My grandfather
loved his lottery.

My grandmama
just loved making money.

[laughs]

So I don't think it's anything

to take pride in,
but I'm a risk-taker.

[laughs]

-Hello, Pookie.
-Hello, Pookie.

Well, look at ya! Slide over.

-Where you comin'?
-[Sophia] Welcome to the party.

Oh, my goodness.

This is how lazy I am.

This food needs to be
heated up, but I got a salad

on there already,
and I don't feel like

taking the salad off
to heat the plate up,

-so we gonna just eat it cold.
-[Sophia] Just like that?

[L.A.] Is that what
you be ready to do?

[Ashanti] Tonight is just
close friends and family.

It's definitely
been a whirlwind.

And it feels good to take
a minute to just chill,

and, like, pause,
because everything

is about to be on 200.

I'm looking forward to this
weekend, and the festivities.

[Sophia]

So he just knows that
we're doing something,

and it's gold.

She's a party-thrower.

Like, that's right up her alley,

because she gets
into the details,

and she looks forward to it, so.

[Ashanti] I like to make it big
and dramatic, you know?

A celebratory thing.

He's gonna be surprised.
He's gonna be like... "Babe."

Because he always be like,
"Yeah, she forgot about me."

"You know, once KK came in."

Oh, my God.

[Tina] Doesn't he say that?

My husband is always
joking about how he feels

a little neglected
since KK came on the scene.

I stopped getting
thought about a long time ago.

[Ashanti] Babes, no,
that's not true.

Mm-hmm, no, no, it's damn true.

[Nelly, on phone]

Babes, we care
about you, of course.

The boy had
more birthday parties

than I done had
in my whole life.

-No, he has not.
-Facts.

Month two,
month three, month four.

Yeah, but those
were photo shoots.

Those were not birthday parties.

Well, it's more than what
the hell I had growing up, so.

[Ashanti] Don't worry about it.
I got you.

[laughs]

In the spirit
of "Viva Las Vegas."

[Ashanti] He's trying
to assess the situation.

No, no, no, no.
No, I'm sorry.

I did not mean
to disrupt the congregation.

Lord knows you need
to let the church speak.

Oh, my God.

-[Nelly] And when you got that--
-Deacon Haynes.

You know, girl, sometimes
I walk down the steps...

[all laughing]

...there's a slot machine
calling my name, I know!

You are so stupid.

I had a dream that
it was so much money downstairs,

that, oh, Black girls
and white girls,

-Black guys and white guys...
-[Ashanti] Dr. King. Hey.

...it was so much money.

Dr. King Haynes.

It must be the money!

-[all laughing]
-[Ashanti] What?

-Yo.
-Give me a kiss. I'm gone.

[guests laughing]

-Y'all be safe.
-Bye.

I'm gonna go down here
and I'm gonna march on Palazzo!

-Good luck.
-[guests cheering]

[Nelly] Yeah,
that's what I need.

[Ashanti] Listen,
I love my husband.

But definitely,
he gambles, you know.

Good and bad.

He'll send me a video.

"Damn, I'm down $250,000."

What?

I'm about to come downstairs.

I need to take you away
from the table.

Whew! It's a lot.

You know what?

I'm not even gonna see him
until freaking 9 a.m.

[guests laughing]

"Babe, go in the safe,
and get out X amount."

But people probably be like,
"Oh, Nelly's here, guys."

[Tina] They ain't
gotta support him.

Oh, my God.

-So, it starts at 10.
-Yeah.

I think we-- you know, he should
still come a little bit after.

[Michelle] But we need
to do the interview.

Like, so, once you're dressed,
y'all need to do the interview.

[Ashanti] What interview? Mm-mm.

ET.

It's before?

We could just go across
the hall and do it real quick.

And then y'all go out.
You know, walk out.

So we just-- But it has to be,
you know, because it's too loud.

The restaurant's open.
The club's open.

The old people, like,
it's gonna be too...

[Ashanti] How many minutes
do they need for it?

-You know, like, five.
-Five? Okay.

[Ashanti] Well, we'll see
what happens.

But yeah. I want the birthday
bash to be meaningful.

Because it's like,
you know, what do you

get a guy that
just has everything?

You know what I'm saying?
It's hard now.

Is it gonna be
better than the car?

[Sophia] I was just about
to say that.

Is it gonna be better?
You got tears for the car.

-Nothing. Listen.
-You got tears for the car.

Definitely got
tears for the car.

I think my biggest
surprise to him

was the car, last year.

[guests cheering]

[upbeat dance music playing]

The best gift that
was ever given to me

in my life was
given to me by my wife.

'62 Impala.

Blue on blue.

I'm not gonna even brag, man.

This car is gorgeous.

You probably gonna win forever,

as far as who gave
the greatest gift.

I don't think anything
is gonna top the car.

Like, when he did this,
man, I was like,

my sister and I,
we was just waterworks.

He was like, the only thing

that you could give me better
is a child.

That's it.
Nothing will ever top that.

[Tina] That was good.

But I am gonna have
something made, and custom,

that I think
is gonna be really dope.

But you know,
it's running a little late.

[all laughing]

We got married very
shortly after the engagement,

so there really wasn't any time
for me to go get a wedding band.

So I wanted to make it,
like, very special and kind of,

like, perfect, and obviously,
have it be custom.

It's not ready
for the party, but I'm excited.

And I'm gonna feel
really good when I see

the ring on the finger.

Whatever you do,
just don't put 50 on it.

[all laughing]

[Ashanti] Yeah,
so, he doesn't know.

I mean, he knows that
it's something happening,

but he doesn't know, like,
what it is, and everything that

we have going and, like, the
entertainment and the people.

I mean, he has an idea
of some of the people,

but not, you know, everything.

Everything.
This is gonna be good.

I have been planning
this party for a while.

The magician, the Mirrorball
Man, the gold girls.

-Mm-hmm.
-The lounge singer.

[Ashanti] We should definitely
mix the DJ in.

[Michelle] And we'll interchange
between the band and the DJ.

-Mm-hmm.
-And then at 12.45, we'll go

-downstairs to the club.
-Mm-hmm.

And then we'll have all

-the surprise performances.
-Yes.

So is the performances
a secret for everybody?

Get up out of here, LaShonna.

You're trying to be all--
Trying to get the scoop.

But he has no idea about anybody

that's gonna perform.
Like, nobody.

I think that's gonna make him
be like, oh, my,

like, his mouth's
gonna be like that.

You're doing good.
You're doing good.

Nelly definitely
wants to know

who's gonna be here,
but I'm not telling him.

It has to be a surprise.

Yeah, I think he's
gonna be very happy.

[upbeat music]

All the pipes and drapes
are going up right now,

then they're gonna hang
the pictures on it.

[Michelle] That's the champagne
wall.

Champagne wall's right there.
This stuff might--

[Michelle] Right.

-[man] It should be cool--
-[phone ringing]

-[Michelle] This is Ashanti.
-[Brian] Hi, Ashanti.

-[Ashanti] Hi.
-So, that's the stage

we were talking about up there.

-The stilt guy?
-[Ashanti] Mm-hmm.

Did we order him?

[Brian] Yeah, I think
it's too much.

Unless you really want it.
I mean, it's not your birthday.

[all laughing]

[Ashanti]

All right, we'll ask.

[Ashanti] I wanted to go
all-out for the birthday.

I want this weekend
to put everything

back into perspective
when it comes to the baby.

Nelly is still my number one.

Well, number two.

No, I'm just kidding.

They're neck-and-neck.

Yeah. No, I know, but it's just
because I'm just thinking about

the-- it's gonna be crowded,
like, packed in here.

You know how it gets in time,
where you're, like,

shoulder to shoulder.

[Ashanti]

It's gonna be so crowded.
It's like a safety hazard.

[Ashanti] Ugh. Okay.

All right.

[energetic music]

Instead of going
through a midlife crisis,

I'm gonna put a part
in my hair instead of buying,

like, a Porsche or some shit.

Yeah, just one line.

Don't start no zigzag shit.
You know, just keep it clean.

Me turning 50
is a day I never thought,

well, I never looked that far.

Growing up in St. Louis,
growing up the way that we did,

I never thought that
that would be possible.

I had a lot of friends
I grew up with, did not see 50.

[razor buzzing]

I managed to get here,
and being around my family

and friends to celebrate
with them,

is something that
I'm very thankful for.

-Thank you, Mom.
-You're welcome.

Yeah.

I'm a mama's boy, definitely.

She is the one that
taught me how to play ball,

how to play sports, took me
to my first baseball game.

-Muah!
-Thank you so much.

I love you, too.

She did the best that she could,

and when you watch somebody...

work their tail off
for as long as they have,

my goal has always been,

yo, I gotta make it so she
doesn't have to do this anymore.

You have created a legacy
all through the bloodlines,

and through
your beautiful bunisteria.

That-- no. [laughs]
I'm just joking.

-[laughing]
-Thank you, Ma.

Now it's time to party.

I need a shot
of whiskey from Nantucket!

[all laughing]

[hum of excited chatter]

[Ashanti] It's Nelly's 50th.

Like, I'm so happy for him.
I'm so proud of him.

Being in this industry
and in this business

for 20-plus years is, like,
an amazing thing,

and I'm so grateful
and so blessed to be his wife,

and we just support each other.

You know, hey, I got my person.

He really is my person.

I thought he was,
and then I knew he wasn't,

and now I know he is.

All right, everybody!

We are here tonight
to celebrate this amazing man.

Uh-huh.

It's his 50th birthday!

-Shh!
-[partygoers cheering]

Okay, well, I want to thank
all of y'all for coming out,

and hanging out, and kicking it.

I want to thank my baby as well.
You know what I'm saying?

And then, definitely all
of the family and friends.

Love you all.

Uh, yeah.

-Let's party!
-Let's get fucked up!

[all cheering]

-Oh, yeah.
-All right.

We about to start
the festivities.

You know, we're gonna do our
little interview real quick.

[upbeat music]

So we have to do
this ET interview,

but we don't have
that much time allotted.

You know, we're running late,

and I just want
to get to the party.

Happy birthday, Scorpio King.

-Let me hug you. I'm Deidre.
-[Nelly] Thank you so much.

-How are you doing?
-Pleasure.

Hopefully, Bighead
does good in the interview.

Thank you, guys.
How you doing?

You too?
How you doing? You good?

He's a little toasty,
but he carries it well.

He knows how to,
you know, make it work.

-Momager, let me give you a hug.
-[Tina] Aww!

It's always so nice
to see you, too.

We agreed to do the ET
interview because it was

a follow-up
to the pregnancy interview.

Everyone was excited,
but they wanted to get in

and get out
to get the party started.

But, you know, that's PR.

And I had to make sure
that they get

to the business first,
and party when it's time.

-[Nelly] I'm ready.
-Yeah, let's do it.

-Yeah, let's do it. Let's do it.
-[director] We good to roll?

-[Ashanti] Yeah, let's roll.
-Are we good?

-[director] Let's go.
-Gonna set that drink by you.

I don't want nobody to think
that it's me.

-This isn't in the shot?
-[man] No, it's not.

-The brush, either? We're good.
-We're good?

Yeah, so, I had the pleasure
of speaking with you

not too long ago,
maybe a month or two ago,

and I loved when you told me
when KK came out,

he was Nelly's twin.

A couple weeks later,
he is now Ashanti's twin.

-He's Mommy's twin.
-Yo.

What does he look like today?

What kind of milestones
are you experiencing?

I don't get a chance to see him.

-Oh, stop!
-Like, he's in and out.

-Get outta here!
-Oh, no, I've been relegated

to very, very small portions
of our life now.

Oh, man.

She treats him
like a Build-A-Bear.

-[Ashanti] Shut up!
-She cares.

He doesn't leave the house.

He changes outfits
three times in the house.

He has to, you know,
he's gotta change with the vibe.

-Come on.
-Absolutely.

Put his diaper on
and a onesie,

-let him thug.
-No!

They want us to say how
KK has bonded us together,

but let me tell you
how KK has literally

shift the powers that be.

I have been relegated
to a side of the bed.

The bus is not my bus anymore.

Love him to death,
but he's a little terrorist.

[phone ringing]

Oh, is that KK?

That's Bri.

Oh, she sent a video!

[KK cooing]

Terrorist.

Congratulations,
coming up on that

first year
of marriage milestone.

What has this first
year felt like,

and been like for both of you?

For me, I've always felt
a sense of protection with him.

I love ET,
but I didn't want to miss,

you know, all the epic
things going on at the party.

How many more questions?
Because we gotta go.

Oh, okay, oh, gosh.
I gotta race. Okay.

Okay. No, it's all good.

[Deidre] What would you say
is the biggest change

in the Nelly you met,

versus the Nelly we have
here tonight celebrating 50?

Wow.

Oh, God.

It's getting late.
We gotta go.

I do need to ask about
so many career,

exciting things
coming up in your future.

How are you
changing the game in 2024?

What does the future
look like for you career-wise?

Can you tease a little bit

what the party
is gonna look like?

We're here in Vegas,
and it has me wondering,

when is the Nelly/Ashanti Vegas
residency show going to happen?

-Thank you so much.
-[Ashanti] Thank you.

-Is there anything else?
-You said it all, babe.

And the interview
was going super, super,

super good, but we had
to get outta there.

[Nelly] Yo, let's do it.

I'm behind schedule.

[dramatic music]

[energetic music]

[party din]

[man]

Cat Daddy, look at that.

Y'all trying to show me up.
No, no, no.

[women]

Thank you so much.
Look at y'all!

[man] You sure know how
to throw a party, man.

[Nelly] My wife did it.

We're in Vegas. It's my 50th.

The party looks incredible.

This place looks incredible.

Shan has done what Shan does.

She goes all-out for other
people on their special day,

and she's really dope,

and this is the example
of that because this is crazy.

Where my wife at?
I just seen her.

-[man]
-[man 2]

[Nelly] Where'd she go?

[man 3]

[Nelly] Where you going?
You leaving me?

[Ashanti] Not at all.

[Nelly] Okay.

[Ashanti] Everything looks
amazing, and Nelly is happy,

but I still have
a few more surprises.

I need to keep him occupied,

while I sneak in
the special guest.

-Let me show you.
-What I need to do?

[Ashanti]

[Nelly] I'm coming.
I'm coming.

-[Ashanti]
-[Nelly] Oh, shit!

[party din]

I wanted people on stilts.

-Where was they gonna walk at?
-That was the problem.

-That's why I couldn't get 'em.
-Yo!

You're looking good, champ.

Listen, I was so drunk,
you could have told me

there was people there on
stilts. I would've believed you.

-What are we doing?
-[Ashanti] Pictures.

-With the kids.
-Um... Okay, let's do it.

Yo, everybody say inheritance.

-No, I'm just joking.
-[Chanelle] Inheritance!

-[Nelly] I just know what you--
-[all laughing]

I'm scared to tell 'em
how much they get.

One of 'em might try to kill me.

We're the Menendez.

[Nelly] Uh-oh,
let me get out there.

So, I just got word that one
of Bighead's good friends

wasn't gonna come,
but he was able to make it.

[Nelly] Somebody's
getting off the elevator.

I'm not supposed to see them.

[Ashanti]

They started stopping people,
and people was looking.

Now I really have
to keep him distracted.

The champagne wall.

Which kind
of champagne you want?

Look like some glory hole shit.
I'm not...

[laughing]

[energetic dance music playing]

[party din]

-Do you see Anderson?
-[Ashanti] Yes.

[Anderson]
Let's go! Yeah! Come on! Yes!

He needs even more of the help!

I found ya!

[Nelly]

Yes. Oh wait, no, no.
No-- Shit.

[Nelly]

Okay, so Anderson.Paak
kinda just blew the surprise.

Nelly was not supposed to know
that he was performing,

so I'm hoping
he didn't hear him.

Yeah, no, I don't got
no steady thing out here yet.

-You got a thing out here?
-No, but,

I would love to do
something with you.

-Yeah. I'm down to go wherever.
-Thank you, man.

-Yeah.
-Where is the birthday boy?

-[Nelly] That my woman.
-Hey.

[laughing]

-Hi, mama.
-First of all,

I just want to say thank you
guys so, so much

for coming out for this amazing
man and this amazing night.

This is a milestone.
Make some noise, everybody!

[cheering, applause]

-We gotta celebrate.
-[all] Yeah!

[all exclaiming]

[Kevin] Happy birthday!

[both laughing]

[Nelly] Yo, man!

50, man,
it don't come often, man.

You're lucky as hell
if you can make it there,

and I think those that do
and you know 'em,

you're supposed
to celebrate 'em right.

-Thank you.
-I love you for real,

-you're a brother for real.
-Thank you, man.

And the real ones
that know you and love you...

-Let's do this.
-I love you, man.

I love you, too. Thank you, man.

Happy birthday, Bighead.
You know him.

[Nelly] I got my glasses.

He gonna cry.

Crying?

[laughing]

Y'all ain't seen
no damn tears come outta me.

-The hell you think this is?
-Oh, my gosh.

Are y'all ready to party?

-[cheering]
-Let's make some noise!

["Hot in Herre" by Nelly]

[cheering]

[tranquil music]

This is a good book.
He loves books.

He can't-- He can't read.

[Ashanti] No, but you know what?

There's this one ABC book
that has a red car,

When you get to the "C",
it's a red car.

He be turning the page back
to the car when I move forward.

So he likes cars already,
I'm telling you,

he recognizes a car.

Okay. I'll give you that,
he like cars.

Yes.

Yo, I truly
appreciated the party, man.

It was a stone groove.

It was a stone cold groove.

Considering that I've been in
second place around this family,

considering,
with the new arrival...

this party kinda
thrust me back up there.

I'm not saying
I'm in first place.

But she definitely made up
for a lot of, um,

I could say lost time.

[Ashanti] Man, if I show you
the pictures. [laughing]

-What you mean? Of me?
-Yeah.

What-- You got of me?
What you did?

[Ashanti laughing]

I got some pictures
you don't remember.

You probably didn't even
see a lot of things.

You know what was funny?
You and the... band.

-What do they call that? The--
-What band?

The lounge band.

They were singing
all your songs.

You don't remember snatching
a mic, and going over there

and singing with the lounge
band in the room?

-I found the footage.
-[Nelly singing in video]

[Nelly] Who is that?
That's not me.

-[Ashanti] You!
-[Nelly] That's not me.

[Ashanti laughing] Yes, it is.

* I'm goin' down, down, baby *

* Your street
in a Range Rover *

* Sweet, sweet baby,
Uh-huh, ready to let it go *

-[Ashanti laughing]
-No, that's not me.

[Ashanti] Who is that?

[Nelly] I don't know,
but that's not me.

That Tom Ford gold suit on,
that's you!

* Light it up and take a puff *

* Pass it to me now *

[cheering]

Who is that singing with me?

She off-key. Who that?
Who was that woman?

That is Momager.

Oh! Oh, oh, oh.
She sounds great.

[Ashanti laughing] I'm telling.

[Nelly] Oh, no. Perfect pitch.

My mother-in-law is--
Yeah, I mean...

I don't even know where me and
the band would be without her.

[Ashanti] Mm-hmm.

[Nelly] You know what?
I'm done drinking.

-[laughing]
-I'm done drinking!

[dramatic music]

[mellow music]

Can we move some of this shit?
Like, damn.

I get it. I get it.

The littlest person
got the most shit.

He got the most stuff.
Oh, man.

We're headed back to St. Louis,

and as usual,
there's work to be done.

[Ashanti] We do have to talk
about Christmas, though.

I cannot believe it's about
to be Christmas.

I'm doing a photo shoot
for KK Christmas.

He's gotta do his first
Christmas photo shoot.

So we're doing that.

Listen, that man got more
photo shoots than me.

You just swore this--
Like, he got an album,

a movie, and some other shit.

[Ashanti] But, babe,
what are we going to do?

Because there's a tree in
St. Louis, a tree in New York.

Both of our families
traveling back and forth.

[Nelly] We gotta make sure we do
something special in St. Louis.

My granny's getting older,
and she-- she can't travel.

-Yeah.
-Definitely don't want to take

-my mom away from the situation.
-[Ashanti] Right.

So we'll be able
to problem-solve.

Ideally, definitely want to...

-[Ashanti] Be here.
-Yeah.

So, Nelly and I are still
trying to work out

our living situation.

And with KK's first
Christmas coming up,

we really have to figure out,
are we going to do New York?

Are we going to do St. Louis?
Where are we gonna be?

[Nelly] All right, well,
we're going to talk about it.

I know everything
is a little, um, out of whack.

[Ashanti] Yeah.

But that's what
Christmas is for.

[sighing] For what?

-Spending money.
-[laughing] Absolutely.

I want to be on the other
end of this shit.

-You will be. I got you.
-[Nelly] You got me?

-Yeah.
-[Nelly] Like the party?

-Keep it up, I might marry you.
-[Ashanti] Yeah?

[Nelly] God damn,
what's that on your finger?

-[Ashanti] Man.
-[Nelly] Woo!

[Ashanti] One of these days.

Sixteen more payments,
and it's all yours.

-[Ashanti laughing] Bow!
-Don't tell nobody.

[energetic music]

Come on, Geronimo.
Let's go see your granny.

-Ma!
-[knocking]

-Mama! Ma!
-I'm coming.

-There you go.
-[Rhonda] Hi!

-Hey!
-[Rhonda] Ooh!

Wait a minute. Don't I get a--
Can I get a hug?

-No, he's first now.
-No!

Put him down.

[Ashanti]
I don't get nothing, either.

[Nelly] My mother loves
Ashanti even more than me.

-She's no longer my mother.
-[laughing]

Shan has both mothers.

I got the dads, though.

Well, I got her dad.
My dad done traded me in, too.

[Ashanti laughing]

[Rhonda] How was your trip?

-It was good. It was good.
-Good.

I mean, long.

What'd you do with that
money from Vegas?

I brought it home.
[laughing]

[Nelly] Where it is?
You should've--

In a boot in the back,
in the corner, in the dark.

Oh, I had to hear it
through the grapevine you won.

-You didn't tell me.
-[Rhonda] You did, too.

You must've forgot, yeah.

KK looked like he was
tired when he came.

-Who, KK?
-[Rhonda] Yeah.

[Nelly] I don't know why,
he ain't drove nothing.

He ain't did nothing but eat,
sleep, and shit.

-That's all you did.
-[Nelly chuckling]

What's that? Pizza?

Oh, is it Imo's?

-Mm-hmm.
-Oh, I hate Imo's.

Whoa, don't you ever disrespect
a being in this house like that.

Y'all don't make pizza
like New York pizza.

It's just, this, like, mad thin.

[Nelly]
That is a landmark treasure.

[Ashanti] I'm from New York,
we have the best pizza ever.

[mockingly] I'm from New York
We got the best pizza ever.

[Ashanti] You know what?
Whatever.

[all laughing]

New York does everything better.

Y'all got a bunch of rats.

Only thing you got,
y'all got this big-ass--

-Carrying the pizza.
-[Nelly] Y'all got--

[both laughing]

These big ass--

Even they know
the pizza is fire.

So, when is the thing?
The shoot?

I'm just gonna run up there now.

-Now?
-[Nelly] Yeah, I'm behind.

I am relaunching
the Apple Bottom brand.

This is getting a chance
to bring back something

that we feel
has definitely been iconic.

When we first launched
Apple Bottoms,

we had a male line called Vokál,
but we had way more female fans.

So, I wanted the women's brand
to stand on its own.

I wanted something that
the women would be proud of.

[Rhonda] Bye baby, be careful.

Yes, ma'am.
I'll see y'all when I get back.

-Muah! Love you.
-I love you, too.

I'm proud of him for, like,

revving it back up,
bringing it back.

Do I want him
looking at asses all day?

Probably not.

[Ashanti] And don't be looking
at too many asses, either.

-Only those that are needed.
-[Ashanti] What?

[energetic music]

[Nelly] We are about to shoot

some online content
for the relaunch.

A photo shoot, a little bit
of behind the scenes.

Hey ladies, y'all good?

-Yeah, thank you.
-Yo, thank you so much.

When we launched
Apple Bottoms the first time,

social media was non-existent.

And now
it's basically everything.

What did we say?

How many emails and the likes
did we want in the beginning?

-We-- yeah.
-[Nelly] What did you tell me?

I said 10,000 would be good.

[Nelly] He told me
10,000 would be good.

How many did we wind up getting?

[man] We got about 100,000.

[Nelly] You know how many
girls were like 12,

13 waiting to wear this brand,
and then we went away?

Launching the brand,
man, was like a rocket ship.

And then things...
Mm. Took a dip.

We got caught in a situation

where all urban brands
took a hit.

And it wasn't anything personal,
even though it felt personal.

All the cultures start switching
to Louis, Gucci, Fendi, Prada.

And they start
dressing more high-end.

So now we're trying
to get a new vision,

but with the original
foundation.

It is something
that can be hard to do,

but I have a great design team.

Definitely trying to recapture

just the essence
of what Apple Bottoms is,

but also projecting
to where we want it to go.

[man] Legs are together.
Got it.

All right.
Slowly turn towards the camera.

Yeah, right there.
Yeah, higher.

Right there. Let's try that.
All right, that was good.

Yeah, perfect.
All right, got it.

Got it. Got it.

With this being
the beginning, and this being

one of our first shoots...

Just say, what can we
expect from Apple Bottoms now?

-What can people expect?
-Yeah.

I don't think
that any idea is wrong,

but I don't think
we had the right idea yet.

All right,
that's all the questions.

And then we're going to do some
soundbites in your own words.

Okay, let's do
the soundbites first.

[man] We're gonna give you
a test, real quick.

-[woman] All right.
-[Nelly] Come on, DD.

[Juliette] Okay, ready?

[man] Yo, Nelly, sit back.
Like, chilling.

What-- What it look like now?

We're fully confident
on everything

going in the right direction.

But when I first
got there, though, um...

[man]

[woman]

[man 2]

[man 3]

I don't think the creative

was where I wanted it
to be, basically.

[man]

-[model]
-[man 2]

Test. Test, go forward.

-[man 3]
-[woman]

[man 3]

Yo, but you gotta have somebody
out there know what they doin'.

[woman]

-[woman]
-[Nelly]

'Cause this ain't
the Vibemagazine show.

We just need some press, man.

Are we the fuck
on the same team around here?

Next time, onNelly and
Ashanti: We Belong Together...

I think it's about time we all
go take a trip down to New York.

What did Dad say?

[Shawn] Nothing. It don't matter
now. You got it.

Now, if the kids love the city,

maybe I can get Nelly to spend

a little bit more time
in New York.

Does marriage
feel different, Dad?

'Cause I just want the big boom.

I don't know what that means.
What's the big boom?

The wedding.

I think as a father,
you're in that watchdog mode.

You know, I want
the partnership now.

You said, I think
I just want the boom.

A relationship
is still commitment.

Being a girlfriend and being
a wife is two different things.

Having a boyfriend,
you're still single.

You have a husband, you're not.

[Juliette]

No, well, I don't
know what it meant.

Being in an environment that
I'm not seeing the vision

that I want at the time,

I'm definitely going to start
regulating some shit.

It's a man with a woman's line.
Like, don't set me up.

You're setting me up.
