Ashanti's camel toe said "hiiii" & Ja Rule is staring right at it.

Put it away, love. You're almost 40

Someone please tell Ashanti her window for securing the bag via thirst trapping has closed. How is this OK? Many of us would like to wear outfits that our bodies just won't allow, but does that mean we should... simply because we can? As a newly turned 39-year-old, I'm sure she's aware that if she wants to wear certain outfits on stage, it is best to not rock one two sizes too small. After all, that protruding fanny cleavage is working overtime through the PVC and goes without notice by long term tour partner Ja Rule. I just feel like she should do what Beyoncé does and tone up! Otherwise, leave the super-tight leotards well alone. And I'm not criticizing Ashanti's body at all. I find her shape incredibly sexy. She is thick (not fat) and shapely in all the right places, but this fit isn't doing her any favours. Ms. Douglas wore the unflattering garment as she took to the stage at the Orleans Arena in Las Vegas on Saturday. Earlier this week, she announced a UK tour commencing at the start of next year. I attended a family birthday dinner on Wednesday night where one of my cousins had asked myself and my sister if we were up for it. We will see how that pans out I guess, as it will just be the same songs she released 20-years-ago. You just know she'll be performing 'Foolish' and 'Baby Baby Baby' up until she's almost a pensioner. No shade, but she's mostly a throwback artist now (touring-wise). Then again, we may have new music on the horizon as she recently announced to ET that her EP will be dropping on November 15th.

So if she tours, it will probably be at the back of that, alongside the 'Pretty Little Thing' single. If most of you were glued to 'Love Island' this year (I was and for the life of me don't know why as this series was by far the worst season), you will notice that Ashanti's PLT commercial received some serious rotation throughout the ad breaks. As a result of that, her song has been widely received here in the UK. So there's no doubt this will be performed on her UK tour, alongside the new EP material. The UK winter edition of 'Love Island' debuts in January and with her tour kicking off in January, this would serve as some major promo. Get coins! The tour announcement comes after Ashanti flew out to Turkey to perform for Kate Wright and Rio Ferdinand's wedding. Must be nice to still be in demand to someone.
