The Grammy-winning R&B musicians formally shared the details of their upcoming co-headlining residency at Resorts World Las Vegas on Wednesday, Nov. 11 after first announcing the news on Dancing with the Stars the previous night.

The stars first announced their 10-show The Boy Is Mine Residency, which kicks off on Memorial Day weekend and runs through July, while taking the DWTS stage for a guest performance of their hit of the same name on Grammys night Tuesday, Nov. 10.

Speaking with PEOPLE after sharing news in the episode dedicated to all-things Grammy Awards, Brandy, 47, called the duo’s 2027 residency a “dream come true” — and teased that it’s going to be “fire.”

“We’re so, so, so excited. We’re so blessed. This is a dream come true,” Brandy told PEOPLE of the forthcoming Vegas shows. “I’ve wanted this for us for such a long time and it’s finally here.”

“She truly did manifest it though,” Monica added of her collaborator. “She started talking about it and I’d never thought about it before in a serious sense. And then I’m thinking, ‘We’re in one place. We get a chance to create this world for everyone to come and join us and be a part of it.’ ”

Both of “The Boy Is Mine” singers also teased a bit of what fans can expect from the residency.

“So when you step into Resorts World, we’re gonna take you back into a walk of what the ‘90s were like, what real music was like, what the nostalgia that they get a chance to see a little bit of now,” Monica teased to PEOPLE of the upcoming shows. “We’ll get to really take a deep dive and give you guys an inside view of it.”

“It’s gonna be fire, breathing dragons,” added Brandy.

The Boy Is Mine Residency at Las Vegas’s Resorts World Theatre begins May 29, with subsequent shows on May 30, June 2, June 4, June 5, July 9, July 10, July 14, July 16 and July 17. Tickets go on sale Friday, Nov. 20 at 10 a.m. PT.

The 10-show run comes on the heels of Brandy and Monica’s first-ever co-headlining The Boy Is Mine Tour, which concluded in December 2025.

While announcing the tour in June 2025, Brandy revealed on CBS Mornings there had been interest in the two going on the road together since 1998 — though touring back then wasn’t likely, as Brandy and Monica weren’t exactly on good terms. After the release of their hit duet, the duo famously had a fight backstage while rehearsing for a performance at the 1998 MTV Video Music Awards, and their feud persisted for years.

At the time, Monica said, the feud “started as nothing and it really did turn into something.” Both stars also pointed out that lived in two different places — Brandy in Los Angeles and Monica in Atlanta — and were very young.

“People forget too, I was 17, she was 18 when we did the record,” Monica said on CBS Mornings at the time. “People forget that you’re having this conversation about children, basically. You’re inciting a riot amongst children! We were teenagers!”

Now, the collaborators have a strong friendship, which Brandy told PEOPLE during Tuesday’s DWTS is thanks to “chemistry.” Monica added that their bond keeps them from becoming “lonely” in their careers in the entertainment world.

The musicians, Monica explained, “get a chance to experience parts of each other’s lives that are somewhat different when we’re alone. And it’s good to have someone to be on the road, on the stage with. Once you do a solo, it does get lonely sometimes.”

“Even when you’re very successful, it’s still very lonely. So this isn’t that,” Monica said, as Brandy added, “We got each other.”
