Nelly dismisses reports of marriage to Ashanti

Rapper Nelly has laughed off rumours he's proposed to long-term girlfriend Ashanti, insisting the reports are incredibly far-fetched.

The Hot In Herre hitmaker - born Cornell Haynes Jr - has been dating R&B singer Ashanti since November 2003, but the hip-hop star denies they are set to walk down the aisle anytime soon.
