HI, ASHANTI!

( Pictures by: Russ Einhorn / Splash News )

Check out Ms. Ashanti at the American Music Awards nomination announcements, in Beverly Hills earlier today (October 9). As we told you last week, her album has been pushed back to December 11th.

Here is a tip I received yesterday:

Ashanti just wrapped up the video over the weekend for her new music video “Hey Baby (After The Club)” featuring Mario Winans. The video was shot in Los Angeles with famed director Hype Williams during October 5 & 6. This will be Ashanti’s 1st Single to her new CD “The Declaration”, due December 11 (Universal). Though details of the video are being hold under wraps for production, it was confirmed that both Mario Winans, Diddy and a couple of other celebrities will have cameos in the music video and that the video is very different & sexy. Sources says the video will be sure to put Ashanti back on the map. The video is set to premiere at the end of the month.

Ashanti’s birthday is this Saturday, October 13th and she is turning 27.

    She looks very beautiful.

  2. j,

    um first off the new single is hot

    ashanti is hot

    her voice is amazing, her lyrics are amazing

    and Beyonce’s 27, i don’t see anyone screaming about her ass looking old, and Ashanti doesn’t look a day over 22!!!

  3. JustDaFactsMam

    As long as it don’t sound NOTHING like that GARBAGE “switch”. You couldn’t have paid me to make me believe that was ASHANTI!! I’m like naw, Wendy lying now that ain’t no dag on Ashanti, but there was Nelly wit his wack azz bringing da gurl down.

    The verses are not bad, but that HOOK is HORRENDOUS!!! I can’t get past it. Ashanti JUST SAY NO to Nelly in the studio!

    I’ll listen to this new joint, which I haven’t heard, with an open mind….. *fingers crossed*

  4. diva

    J STFU and for your information Beyonce just turned 26 on Sept 4 not 27 so Ashanti is a year older than Bey. Beyonce looks her age and Ashanti looks hers so get your stan ass outta here!!!

  5. Mz Coko

    Cute. 27 is not even near old..unless u r 12…

    LMAO@people that say “no homo”..omg that is so retarded….

  6. yes

    Y was she at the nominations?

  7. dctrinigyal

    she look nice but her album will be a flop

  8. I agree w/ Mz Coko. If you know you’re not gay, why bother mentioning that? Some people are either too concerned with what people may think of them, or homophobic…or “in the closet” if you will…

    Question for Concrete Loop – what happened to posting pictures? You know, thumbnails to see them regularly…not just a graphic. I know sometimes you do, but it seems lately most of the times you don’t. GET IT TOGETHER! lol =)

  9. SheSoCrazy

    Yes bitch yes!!!!!!!!

  10. All I wanna know #65 and #68 are ya’ll referring to my title???

    If ya’ll got beef, I got a grill in the backyard!

  11. southernmello

    I love this chick………something about Ashanti that I really like….She needs to leave Garbage Inc. and get with a new label…

  12. Ms. Bmore

    I just vomited in my mouth. Beautiful pics…but her music is just soo bubble gum. There are only Ashanti songs that I like…Rain on Me..and Always on Time (Ja Rule’s song)…oh and Mesmerize (also Ja Rule’s song).

    The face of music is always changing, along with fans’ perceptions, likes, and dislikes. With all the shit going on in the world today, most people do not want to hear a whiny black version of Hannah Montana, trying to swoon some thug. That is why her album..and Mya’s album..and some others..continue to get pushed back..because it’s not that the world ain’t ready for it…WE DON’T WANT IT.

  13. @60

    Thanks for that…but are you serious?? Tweet is a hella better singer than Ciara will ever be. Other than that, I don’t see why Tweet isn’t making original songs at this point.

  14. GYP

    SHE LOOKS NICE HERE BUT I DON’T LIKE HER MAKEUP REALY

  15. bigvon

    That Tweet featuring T.i song is killin the ciara version.i Think u need to recheck that.
    u mus b an ashanti fan

  16. justice

    WHY ARE PPL CALLING HER NAMES JUST DON’T COMMENT!! JUST GIVE HER CREDIT SHE LOOKS DAMN GOOD!!! I LIKE HER MUSIC I’M NOT TRYING TO WALK AROUND HERE AND LISTEN TO ONE BLACK FEMALE SINGER ALL DAY WHY CAN’T SHE TRY AND MAKE A COME BACK PPL GET A LIFE

  17. I’ve never been a fan. And it doesn’t look like that’s gonna change.

  18. I aint scared of you mothafucka's!!!

    At number 16… you wanna know the reason that it has that beat? Go to ashantidaily.com and find out. Then that will make you shut the fuck up and prove you dont know what your talking about. Mario Winans did that beat and they will tell you why on that website. Fool.

    Anyway… scratch that. My girl Ashanti lookin good as always. Cant wait for da new video. Go head shany!

  19. LMAO at some of you FOOLS!

    Whoever said Ashanti is old…. I really aint even gonna comment on dat one. Cause 27 is NOT old. Shoot. She dont even look 27 anyway. Now Nelly on da other hand… I think he is like 35 or somewhere around there. But thats not old either. Ya aint old untill you reach 54. :) NAWWW I’m just kiddin.

  20. good music is hard to come by these days

  21. Dame

    Lol @ 81 I agree 27 is not old I’ll will be 27 next mth and I feel great. Lol

  22. Happy Birthday Ashanti in advance!!! I love the dress.

  23. mzsweetface

    Hey Baby??? It’s been a while since her last CD and already she is proving there is no growth. Maybe she needs to go back to school and learn some neew words. I’m tired of bubble gum music. I hope she “brings it” this time. I like Ashanti even though she can’t sing but she has a lot riding on this comeback.

  24. Lady Architect

    Ashanti looks great…I guess she has to ride on her beautiful image cause she has no talent…but then again this is nothing new in the present times…..I think she should push back her album to January cause the amount of good music coming out in the next 2 months…there’s virtually no room for her to sell right about now. Kepp up the publicity work though…She has great marketing.

  25. WOW… I will say this, the people that love this girl should be happy that all the HATERS…oh excuse me just people with opinions…. they should be happy that they keep talking about her… even though it’s bad things they say… like mama used to say, worry when they stop talking about you… right now Ole Girl Ashanti who by the way is gorgeous, her style game is tight…. she is VERY RELEVANT…. so if you really don’t like her and want her to go away maybe you should keep your hate, oh my bad your opinion to yourself and not even look nor write about her when she on these post and just maybe you’ll get your wish… BUT i think you all secretely love this girl… the artist i dont care for, i never even read about, nor do i look at their pics and i damn sure don’t WASTE MY TIME writing about them…. so it’s safe to say I LIKE ASHANTI… i guess part of it is i Love the underdog……. GET EM GIRL!

  26. SugaSay

    She looks cute sans that sequins getup. But please I beg of you, do not torture the masses with your voice! Its a weak nasaly mess! Oh, and can you take your BF with you? His voice is equally annoying….

  27. bailey

    ENOUGH ALREADY ASHANTI WITH THE FU$$ EM DRESSES FOR EVERY EVENT AND EVERY HOUR OF THE DAY!

    LOVE YA…..BUT ENOUGH IS ENOUGH

    SWITCH IT UP A BIT-YOU GOING TO HARD FOR THE SEX KITTEN LOOK

    IT DOESN’T TAKE MUCH EFFORT TO PUT ON A SHORT OR TIGHT MINI DRESS AND STILLETTO HEELS…… …SHOW US RANGE FROM CASUAL TO GLAM….

    YOUR STUCK ON HOOKER, AND IT’S DEFINITELY TIME TO SWITCH IT UP

    JUST MY OBSERVATION & I ALREADY KNOW SHE COULD CARE LESS

  28. Sade-Love Is Stronger Than Pride

    I only got love for Ashanti because she is a fellow Libra like me. Keyshia Cole’s birthday is on the 15th, I didnt know she was a Libra too.

  29. chacha123

    I like Ashanti and being with my boy and fellow St. Louisian Nelly doesn’t hurt either. She’s very pretty and talented in my opinion. I understand that everyone has his opinion but it seems that most on the loop don’t like her whether it be her songs, clothes, singing, dancing, etc. The only thing I would want is for her to pick better tv/movie roles. Anyway, there are worse singers out there but again, everyone is entitled to his opinion.

  30. knockkey

    TEAM CIARA TEAM ASHANTI. CIARA OWN HER VRESION ON MY DEAR, TI THAT IS NOT A GOOD LOOK TO REPLACE THE GOODIES QUEEN. WHEN WILL THE AMA AIRED.

  31. dee

    i wish she’d go away already…..DAMN!!!

  32. LMAO at some of you FOOLS!

    At 83…. well happy B-day in advance. Hope you have a good one. :)

    Like I said to some of you fools… 27 is not old. Its not even CLOSE to old. I swear… some of you fools will find the SMALLEST thing to hate on. But thats ok. When Mary J. first came out, some people were hating on her too the way people hate on Ashanti. And look how successful Mary J. is now. Exactly. So I have high hopes for my girl Ashanti.

    Thats the problem with some of us black folks today. Instead of hating, yall need to be celebrating. That we have another young black female who is doing her thing and will continue to shine whether yall like it or not. No matter how much it KILLS some of you… Ashanti is a happy, young, talented hot black female. Singer/songwritter/actress/ and I have to say I LOVE that perfume homegirl is selling. Precious Jewel smells sooo good.

    Ashanti was asked once in an interview if she is bothered by the haters. She said No and that they only make her stonger. She really thinks some of them are funny. As do I. So go ahead. Hate. Cause you will only be doing my girl a favor. :)

  33. cs

    Good for her. I’ve always liked Ashanti. I wish her well.

  34. charlee

    i bet she loving THESE BABYDOLL DRESSES…cause we all know its hiding her CHUNKY MIDDLE

  35. Not a fan at all but she looks very beautiful……. that dress and shoes are NICE.

  36. Johhnnyy

    can you post the pictures of ashanti’s KING magazine scanes.

  37. MySpace Addons

    She looks stunning in these pictures – I still love her!

  38. gllahone

    Damn, Ashanti has a body, nice figure. I see why Nelly don’t make music anymore.

  39. lnana

    This girl is so dry and boring and she has no talent, no personal syle, she just copies styles from other people or whatever’s in. Why would anybody want to hear the same old nasally whinney voice with no range. She needs to go away forever, we have enough non-singers out right now-like rhianna.

  40. Ashanti stay looking fab! But a comeback? I wish she would just “go back”! Your time has came and passed. Ain’t nobody really looking to buy your album boo.

  41. R&B Thug

    HOW IN THE WORLD DID UNIVERSAL ALLOW THAT GARBAGE TO BE A SINGLE!! FAKE ASS KEISHA COLE RECORD. SHE’S HAMMERING THE NAIL IN THE COFFIN WITH THIS ONE! YUCK! BABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABY WAIT… OK BABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABYBABY
