Ashanti & Nelly Throw The Sweetest Car-Themed First Birthday Party For Baby KK
Ashanti showed up glowing in a white graphic tee that read “MOM” in big blue bubble letters, complete with a cartoon of baby KK printed underneath. The R&B princess paired her top with high-rise denim shorts with rhinestone fringe, oversized hoops, and layered necklaces. She topped off her fashion look a sleek ponytail and natural glam makeup.
Nelly kept it casual in a matching “DAD” tee and distressed denim shorts. KK wore his own custom baby version of the t-shirt – and looked adorable.
If there’s one thing these reality TV stars love, it’s a color-coordinated family activity.

According to People, baby KK made an entrance in a miniature white Lamborghini, wearing tiny sunglasses and a crown. The toddler was smiling, waving, and taking it all in—celebrity baby behavior activated.
And yes, there were famous guests. LL Cool J and his wife Simone Smith, singer Lloyd, and Louisa Kiwana Olafuyi, the co-creator of Kunda & Friends, joined the fancy toddler soiree.
Guests were treated to delicious eats from Evelyn’s Kitchen and Cuts & Slices, plus desserts by Toni’s Minis and Hanoli Cakes NY. Hot Wheels gift bags made sure every kid left smiling.
Ahead of the official party, Ashanti shared a short video from a private pre-turnup moment on Instagram, captioning it: “omg I was crying this morning… ð©ð¢ð¥¹I’m still debating what I’m posting for his birthday. Lol”
It was subtle but full of emotion – clearly, the new mom is soaking in every second of this new chapter.
