'I mean, this is crazy enough that I actually might believe it,' Cohen, 57, said. 'Sharon, did you go on a date with Nelly?'
'Yes, I did,' Stone admitted with a burst of laughter.
However, the 'Total Recall' actress and 'Hot in Herre' rapper apparently did not hit it off, because Stone also admitted that the pair never went out again.

Although Stone did not share any additional details about her and Nelly's romantic rendezvous, her fans rushed to social media to express their surprise about the stunning revelation.
'Ahh! I keep watching her in these clips. I love her transparency,' one person wrote on Instagram.

'Follow-up Q: anybody else you dated that would surprise us?' inquired a third.
Despite not hitting it off with the 'Country Grammar' artist, Stone has still had her fair share of relationships over the years.
She was married to film producer Michael Greenburg, 74, from 1984 to 1987, and later went on to marry journalist Phil Bronstein, also 74, from 1998 to 2004.

Before Stone and Bronstein's split, the pair adopted a son, Roan, 25, in 2000. The 'Nobody 2' star then adopted her second son, Laird, 20, in 2005, followed by her third son, Quinn, 19, one year later.
Stone made a rare red carpet appearance with all three of her sons at the Los Angeles premiere of 'Nobody 2' on Aug. 11.
Besides her marriages to Greenburg and Bronstein, the 'Casino' star was romantically linked to comedian Garry Shandling, filmmaker William Macdonald and assistant director Bob Wagner.

After suffering a stroke in September 2001, Stone decided to put her acting career on hold to focus on her family and loved ones.
Now, as an empty nester, the 'Sliver' actress has decided to return to her life on the big screen.
'When I reconsidered what value things had to me in life, I really wanted to have children and spend my time with them,' Stone told Today during an interview published Monday.
'And I only really worked as much as I needed to to support my family,' she added. 'But now my children have left the nest, and now I'm back to work.'
As for Nelly, he married his longtime on-again, off-again girlfriend, Ashanti, in December 2023.
The couple later welcomed a baby son, Kareem, on July 18, 2024.
