Brandy and Monica, whose Grammy-winning duet “The Boy is Mine” dominated music charts in 1998, are reuniting after nearly 30 years. The duo will serve as co-headliners for their first-ever joint tour, with 24 arena shows across the U.S., beginning in October and running through December. They’ll also be joined by more R&B stars: Kelly Rowland, Muni Long, and Jamal Roberts will appear as special guests. Though they also collaborated on the 2012 single ”It All Belongs to Me," Brandy, 46, and Monica, 44, rarely perform together. They performed “The Boy is Mine” on TV only once, during the 1998 MTV VMAs, and have very few documented live performances together in the 27 years since. They last reunited in 2024, when they joined Ariana Grande for a remix of “The Boy Is Mine” and made cameo appearances in the music video for her song of the same name. At the time, Monica said that working with Grande helped her repair her relationship with Brandy after years of rumored feuding. Now, the “Angel of Mine” singer says their tour is the next chapter in their “musical marriage.”
