It’s Getting Hot In Herre: Joss Stone Dating Nelly? Whatever Next?

I had no idea Nelly was even around anymore because I am not totally switched on when it comes to all things youth and hip hop, but it appears the man who singlehandedly tried to turn BandAids into facial accessories is not only alive, but dating Joss Stone! Yes, he’s allegedly “diggin’ on” the British soul princess.

British soul singer Joss Stone is reportedly dating Amercian rapper Nelly.

The British star has been on several secret dates with the 33-year-old US rap star – who is 12 years her senior – and is said to be smitten with him.

A source revealed: “Joss and Nelly have been out on a few dates. It’s early days but Joss is really happy. It’s great that she has met someone as successful as she is and who understands the pressures of being a performer.”

This means that Joss no longer has to carry through with her threat of becoming a lady-diver.

The music star – who recently performed at a Hollywood awards ceremony for the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation – quipped: “Every girl my age wants to be in a relationship, but I haven’t had one for two years. I think I’ll have to turn lesbian!”

That’s pretty much how the whole gay thing works, so I understand. Can’t find a good man, nestles between the comforting legs of a female acquaintance, finds some sort of happiness to pass the time until the menfolk resume interest, rinse, repeat.
