Sharon Stone Drops Bombshell: She Actually Dated Nelly—And It Wasn’t a Fluke
Riley Carter here—just another millennial who’s seen enough celebrity drama to know when something’s real, and when it’s just a TikTok trend. But let me tell you, this one? This one’s got teeth.
Sharon Stone, the iconic screen siren whose name still echoes through every ‘90s thriller fan’s memory, just dropped a bombshell on “Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen” that had fans scrambling for their phones. At 67, she casually admitted she once went on a date with Nelly, the Grammy-winning rapper known for “Hot in Herre” and a career that’s spanned decades. Yes, you read that right—the woman who made audiences gasp in Basic Instinct shared a dinner table with the man who brought Southern rap to mainstream fame. And no, it wasn’t a joke. The moment was so unexpected, even Cohen paused mid-question like he’d heard a ghost.
“I mean, this is crazy enough that I actually might believe it,” Cohen said, leaning into the mic. Then came the question everyone was thinking: “Sharon, did you go on a date with Nelly?” Stone didn’t flinch. She laughed—low, knowing, the kind of laugh that says, “Yeah, I did, and I’m not sorry.” But here’s the twist: they never dated again. “No, I did not,” she replied, deadpan, as if she’d just confirmed she once tried tofu and hated it.
Now, while details remain tight-lipped—no mention of where they met, what they talked about, or whether the dessert was worth it—fans flooded social media with disbelief, admiration, and a healthy dose of chaos. One Instagram comment read: “Ahh! I keep watching her in these clips. I love her transparency.” Another simply typed “Icon” with a flame emoji. A third asked, “Follow-up Q: anybody else you dated that would surprise us?” And honestly? We’re not ready for that answer yet.
But let’s not get distracted by the Nelly thing. Sharon Stone has lived more lives than most people have Netflix subscriptions. Married twice—first to film producer Michael Greenburg (1984–1987), then to journalist Phil Bronstein (1998–2004)—she built a family that now includes three sons: Roan, Laird, and Quinn. All three were spotted together at the LA premiere of Nobody 2, marking a rare red carpet appearance for the reclusive star. After a stroke in 2001, she stepped back from acting to focus on motherhood, saying, “When I reconsidered what value things had to me in life, I really wanted to have children and spend my time with them.” Now that the nest is empty, she’s back—and sharper than ever.
As for Nelly? He’s settled down too—married to Ashanti since December 2023, and welcomed their son Kareem in July 2024. So while the romance between Sharon and Nelly fizzled out, both are clearly thriving in their own lanes. Whether it was a quirky one-off or a secret chapter we’ll never know, one thing’s certain: Sharon Stone still knows how to make headlines—even at 67.
Anyway, that’s the deal. Do with it what you will.
