Kelly Rowland Addresses Viral Excel 'Text' to Nelly in Her 'Dilemma' Music Video

Kelly Rowland opened up about that viral “text message” that she certainly didn’t send to Nelly in their “Dilemma” music video.

“Do you know how much flack I get from that,” Kelly joked on Mythical Kitchen’s Last Meal. “I’m so used to it now.”

“What did you expect,” she said about the message never making it to Nelly. “Because it’s just a draft, my dear.”
