It’s a Nelly and Kelly Rowland reunion!
On Saturday, Nov. 9, the rapper, 50, and singer, 43, reunited on stage at the 2024 Baby2Baby Gala for a surprise performance of their classic 2002 hit “Dilemma,” as seen in videos posted by fellow attendees Jenna Dewan and Chrissy Teigen.
In the clip, which Dewan, 43, shared on her Instagram stories, Rowland joined Nelly, who performed at the event, on stage holding a microphone as guests could be heard cheering and clapping in excitement.
“I really like this,” Dewan wrote over the video, tagging Rowland.
Nelly said in a clip on stage: “So, since I’ve got an angel up here, since I’ve got a rep for Baby2Baby, I think it’s only right since I’ve been getting a request from everybody that, you know, we do some magic and… thank you for being joined me here and made this happen once.”
