‘Hollow’ Singer Tori Kelly Engaged To Basketball Player Boyfriend André Murillo
“Hollow” singer Tori Kelly is now engaged to her basketball player boyfriend André Murillo!
The 24-year-old confirmed the news via a black and white photo of the two of them. Kelly is holding both of hands to her face, and it showed her beautiful engagement ring. The “Hallelujah” singer simply captioned the snap by saying “I love you” to Murillo.
Murillo, who is of German descent, also uploaded another photo of the two of them hugging each other via his Instagram account. He captioned their picture by quoting a traditional wedding vow. Towards the end of his caption, Murillo called Kelly his best friend.
According to People, Kelly first rose to fame after she gained a huge following on YouTube for posting her original songs, as well as some covers. She later on signed with Justin Bieber's manager, Scooter Braun, and released “Unbreakable Smile” in 2015. In 2016, she was nominated for best new artist at the Grammy Awards. She has also collaborated with the likes of Ed Sheeran and has lent her voice to the animated film, “Sing.”
In 2015, Kelly spoke with Entertainment Weekly about her album, as well as her nomination at the Grammys. According to Kelly, things hadn’t sunk in yet at that time. “That’s one of the best things that can happen to an artist. All my life I even just wanted to attend the Grammys, like just be there, so the fact that I’m nominated for Best New Artist, it feels like a dream,” she said.
Kelly also talked about her collaboration with Sheeran and said that she wants to be able to work with her “good friend” again someday. “I’d definitely like to get back in the studio with Ed. We just have the one song together, ‘I Was Made For Loving You,’ and after that we became really good friends. But I would love to work with him again. I’d like to work with Pharrell Williams again because we never really finished the song we were going to do, so that would be cool. Justin would be amazing. It’d be cool to do something with Coldplay, and Ryan Tedder’s amazing,” she said.
