Look Out, Ace! Watch Elephant Man Serenade ‘Love Island’ Star Chelley on Billboard’s Caribbean Music Awards Livestream

A new bombshell enters the villa! Elephant Man took a moment on Billboard‘s Caribbean Music Awards red-carpet livestream to serenade Love Island USA star Chelley Bissainthe with his latest hit “Pretty Baby.”

Chelley co-hosted Billboard‘s live pre-show (which streamed on the Billboard News YouTube page and the Billboard Hip-Hop/R&B X page) alongside Billboard staff writer Kyle Denis, and when the Jamaican legend stopped by, the duo asked if he would sing a little of his Connie Francis-interpolating track.

“Well, you know, because she’s so beautiful, I just gotta say…” Elephant Man said as he turned to serenade Bissainthe, lamenting the fact that he didn’t have a rose to offer her. The dancehall star then performed a (heavily edited) version of his raunchy track, singing to Chelley: “My pretty, pretty baby/ This ain’t no maybe/ Whenever you’re lonely, girl you can phone me/ My pretty, pretty baby, have me runnin’ back to you-ooh-ooh.” He then notably changed his lyric “we can f— for hours next to the flowers” to “we can talk for hours next to the flowers” — this was a live broadcast, after all.

Elephant Man’s “Pretty Baby” dropped last month and takes many lyrical liberties compared to the late Francis’ “Pretty Little Baby,” which went viral this year — more than six decades after its 1962 release — thanks to its popularity on TikTok.

After spending her summer in Fiji as part of the Love Island USA cast, Chelley left the villa paired up with Ace Green, and the couple are still together more than a month later (though Green was back home in Los Angeles on Thursday night while Bissainthe hosted the Billboard livestream in New York). The Haitian-American reality star is a vocal fan of dancehall music and jumped at the chance to co-host Billboard‘s Caribbean Music Awards red-carpet show, telling Denis that she’s been introducing her villa bestie Olandria to her favorite island music too.
