Fresh off of celebrating her 40th birthday on Oct. 13, Ashanti debuted a new hair color that had fans gasping for air. The “Princess of Hip Hop and R&B” took to Instagram on Wednesday, Oct. 14, to show everyone her fabulous cotton candy pink tresses while rocking a multicolored dress. In the caption, she thanked everyone for their birthday wishes.
“Overwhelmed with love and gratitude. Thankful for all the blessings, lessons, reasons and seasons. I cannot express how happy I am for this next chapter in life. Thank all of you guys for the endless love and support throughout all of these years.”
She continued, “The ups and downs the ins and outs the friends and foes. Everything happens for a reason and in Gods time. Thank you guys for all of your birthday wishes I truly appreciate you so much. Love y’all. 10/13 ♎️♎️♎️🎉🎉🎉🥳🥳🥳”
Many people left “happy birthday” comments under the photo — including rappers Fat Joe and Juelz Santana as well as Tiny’s daughter Zonnique.
But the “Mesmerized” singer didn’t stop there. On Oct. 16, “Shan” took to Instagram to give fans a full look of her hair while twirling around and dipping it low.
“A lil strawberry short cake 🍓🍓 #bday recap 🎉🎉🎉♎️,” she captioned the video.
Fans couldn’t help but to rave over the singer’s sexy look.

“Snow Cone 🍧 Flow 😘.”
Ashanti celebrated her birthday in Antigua with family and friends. She posted a series of photos of her lounging on a yacht while soaking up the sun. The photos displayed her fit body in a sexy silver bikini.
This was the second time we saw Ashanti in Antigua this year. She was on the island in January taking multiple bikini pics while kickin’ it at the beach and by the pool.
If you follow Ashanti on the ‘Gram, seeing the singer celebrate her birthday on a tropical island was no surprise. In the last few years, the New Yorker has documented her travels to the Caribbean through Instagram sharing jaw-dropping photos of her wearing skimpy bathing suits that typically send her followers into a frenzy.
