Brandy and Monica Unveil Las Vegas Residency for The Boy Is Mine

November 13, 2026

Brandy and Monica have just given R&B fans nationwide a fresh reason to book a plane, rally their crew and plan the ultimate Las Vegas–style girls’ night out. The Grammy-winning duo unveiled their first-ever Las Vegas residency last night, on Nov. 10, and the group chats have been buzzing ever since.

While on “Dancing With the Stars,” the pair shared the news in all-white ensembles and promptly posted the specifics online. “The Boy Is Mine Vegas Residency” is slated to begin at Resorts World Las Vegas on May 29, 2027. With this announcement, Brandy and Monica join a legendary roster of performers including Mary J. Blige, Usher, and Mariah Carey, who have made their mark in Sin City.

Public tickets will go on sale on Nov. 20.

Brandy And Monica Describe Their Las Vegas Residency as a Long-Awaited Dream

Backstage, the duo chatted with Good Morning America about teaming up and coordinating their all-white looks. Brandy sported lengthy platinum-blonde waves with a tidy middle part, wearing a high-neck white satin top beneath a crisp white jacket. Gold hoops, a nose ring and glowing rosy makeup finished the look.

“We’re so thrilled. I mean, this is a dream come true. It’s been a long time coming,” she said.

Brandy also thanked Monica for taking on the residency with her and conceded there’s a lot to accomplish. The pair indicated the show would demand roughly six months of preparation. Fans can expect a musical ride spanning from 1994 to the present.

Beside her, Monica cinched an ivory satin button-down with a pleated satin wrap and added drama with wide satin trousers and fluffy white feather panels. Her jet-black hair flowed in long, layered waves, complemented by a smoky eye and a nude lip.

For Monica, the collaboration feels right because of who they are. “It’s really the perfect blend of personalities and voices,” she said. She also credited the bond they’ve built behind the scenes. “You have to cultivate rapport and a relationship to do something of this magnitude,” Monica explained.

Collaborating on these tours brings out the best in both of them, Monica added. She joked that she handles the wardrobe and fashion, while Brandy stays focused on the music and the stage performances.

The Vegas announcement comes on the heels of a tour that’s still a hot topic.
