Brandy and Monica are taking “The Boy Is Mine” to Las Vegas, announcing their first-ever residency on Tuesday night after reuniting to perform their Grammy-winning duet live on Dancing With the Stars.
The R&B icons performed the 1998 classic on the show’s first-ever Grammy Night, Tuesday 10 November, and confirmed the news immediately afterwards. The residency, officially titled “The Boy Is Mine”, will run for 10 shows at the Resorts World Theatre at Resorts World Las Vegas, beginning on 29 May 2027 and concluding on 17 July.
Ten dates across May, June and July
The dates are 29 and 30 May, 2, 4 and 5 June, and 9, 10, 14, 16 and 17 July. The residency, produced by the Black Promoters Collective, will celebrate both women’s individual catalogues, their shared musical history and nearly three decades of “Bronica”, the nickname fans gave the duo. It follows their sold-out co-headlining “The Boy Is Mine” tour.
Tickets go on general sale on Friday 20 November at 10 a.m. PT through AXS. Presales begin this week, with an American Express presale and an artist presale reported for 11 November, followed by local presales. Reports differ on the exact presale dates — Billboard lists 17, 18 and 19 November, while Variety gives 11 and 12 November — so fans should check the official listing before buying.
A duet that spent 13 weeks at No. 1
“The Boy Is Mine” spent 13 weeks at No. 1 on the Billboard Hot 100 in 1999 and won a Grammy, and it remains one of the defining R&B duets of its era. Brandy first revealed her desire for a Las Vegas residency with Monica nearly two years ago, and Tuesday’s announcement makes it real.
For both singers, the residency is a first. Neither has held a Las Vegas residency before, and the 10-date run puts them among a select group of R&B acts to headline the Strip on their own terms.
The residency also continues a run of good news for the duo, whose sold-out tour proved the appetite for their shared catalogue is as strong now as it was in 1998.
