Though neither Ashanti nor Nelly have officially confirmed their supposed relationship to the media, rumors had been circulating on the web that they got engaged over the christmas holiday. A publicist for the singer says it isn't true.

"Contrary to current rumor and gossip on websites and other media, Ashanti is not engaged," said a rep for Huff Entertainment.

The two entertainers have been rumored to be a couple since November 2003. Contactmusic.com even says that during an interview with Samuel L. Jackson that took place early December 2004, the actor admitted that during filming for the movie Coach Carter, in which the Inc.'s firs lady starred, the durrty durrty rapper visited the set plenty of times to bring the songstress organic vegetarian meals.
