‘Cut Up Beautiful’: Ashanti Shuts It Down in Red Minidress

Singer Ashanti is forever going up on the ‘Gram with her stylish photos and a face beat by some of the most coveted hands in the makeup industry.

Whether in a bikini, pantsuit, or a short dress, the former “Princess of Murder Inc. Records” always serves a look that leaves fans drooling.

Even the luxury high-fashion brand had to post a video of the singer to its Instagram, captioning it “ASHANTI is pure PERFECTION.”

Despite enduring a recent foot surgery, which resulted in her wearing a boot decked out with Chanel brooches, not even her medical footwear could get in the way her flaunting her thighs.

“The swag will not be denied!!”

“Mannnnnn even that boot is sexy 😍😍😍😍😍”

“With the bootie on and all. Still hit that pose 👑”

“Foot surgery in Nov but nothing stop miss Ashanti shes unstoppable ❤️❤️❤️ “

During the “Watch What Happens Live” interview, Nelly’s former love interest dodged questions about BET “Tales” creator Irv Gotti who said on “Growing Up Hip Hop: New York” and later “The Wendy Williams Show” that he dated the singer in the 2000s.

She promptly responded by plugging her latest single and upcoming tour forever keeping it cute for the camera.

“I feel like I have a single out called ‘Pretty Little Thing’ featuring Afro Beat. It’s so hot, I’m on two tours this year, one in the U.S. and one in the U.K., and a movie coming out this Saturday and I’m very excited. Bloop!”

Democracy needs journalism it can trust.

This election season, the stakes are higher than usual — and so is the pressure on newsrooms to soften their coverage, stay quiet, or just disappear. Independent reporting, the kind that answers to readers instead of advertisers or political pressure, matters more in a moment like this, not less.

For over 14 years, Atlanta Black Star has stayed independent and reader-funded. We have no corporate owner and no shareholders telling us what to cover or how to cover it. That independence is also our biggest vulnerability: nothing protects it except readers choosing to fund it directly.

Newspaper ad revenue has fallen more than 80% since 2005, and local newsrooms are closing at a rate of roughly two a week nationwide. When outlets go under in a moment like this, it's rarely the independent, reader-funded ones that get to stick around.

We know a request for support isn't why you came here. But without readers choosing to fund this work directly, the depth of reporting we can do at home and abroad shrinks along with everyone else's. If you're not in a position to give, that doesn't change how much we value you as a reader.

If you are able to, a recurring contribution does more for us than a single one-time gift, because it lets us plan the next investigation instead of just the next invoice. It takes about 30 seconds, no long form, no account. Thank you for continuing to support independent journalism and freedom of the press.
