Brandy and Monica will play Resorts World Las Vegas on ten dates between May 29 and July 17, 2027. The run, billed as “The Boy Is Mine Vegas Residency,” is the first Las Vegas residency for both singers and the first one staged by the Black Promoters Collective.

The announcement came on Tuesday night, after the two artists performed their collaborative hit “The Boy Is Mine” on “Dancing With the Stars” during that show’s Grammy-themed episode.

The residency grows out of a sold-out tour rather than a fresh idea. The “The Boy Is Mine” tour concluded in December 2025, with each artist trading off to perform hits and deep cuts from their respective catalogues. The two kept working together afterwards, appearing at the St. Lucia Jazz & Arts Festival and sharing a co-headlining bill at the 2026 Essence Festival of Culture. Variety reviewed the Los Angeles tour stop.

How did a one-off tour turn into a residency?

Monica described the shift in a statement shared with Variety: “Originally, it was planned as a one and done, but I’ll be honest, after the first night, I realized it was far deeper.”

What she names as the mechanism is plainer. Communication, she said, and the discipline of keeping outside opinion from crowding out the two of them. “Communication is key,” Monica said, describing a partnership that lets one artist raise an objection without other people’s feelings becoming their own problem.

A tour built on two catalogues sharing one stage asked them to negotiate, night after night, in front of a crowd. A residency asks for the same negotiation on a fixed calendar, with the same room waiting on ten separate nights. That is the deeper thing Monica was describing.

What does this change for Black Promoters Collective?

Shelby Joyner, President of Black Promoters Collective, framed the move as a step change for her company. “BPC is proud to be working with Brandy and Monica again,” Joyner said in a statement. “We saw on The Boy Is Mine tour how much it meant to fans to see them share a stage, and I’m excited to build on what we created together.”

On the residency itself, Joyner said: “Bringing The Boy Is Mine to Las Vegas as Black Promoters Collective’s first residency is a big moment for us. We’ve built BPC by betting on artists we believe in and listening to their fans.”

For a promoter whose business has been built on tours, a residency in a single Las Vegas room carries different risks. A tour can move a show to a city that sells well; a residency cannot. Ten dates at one address concentrate both the audience and the downside.

The residency spans seven weeks and two blocks of dates, and it puts both artists and both partners on the same Las Vegas stage for a longer stretch than either has attempted there. The sold-out tour already proved the demand. Whether ten nights in one room can hold it is the part nobody has answered.
