It looks like ESSENCE Festival 2016 main stage performer Ciara has arrived in New Orleans, and her handsome fiancé, NFL quarterback Russell Wilson is by her side.

The soon-to-be Wilsons arrived in such high spirits, they literally sang through the streets. Ciara, Wilson and NFL running back Robert Turbin posted a hilarious video showing them singing a hilariously off-key rendition of Dru Hill’s 90s hit single “Beauty.”

Thankfully, Ciara’s splendid vocals kept the song’s tune and melody in tact, but as she herself hinted in the caption, the fellas may want to “stick to football.”

A couple that laughs together stays together. Watch their fun impromptu music video and give us one reason not to love this couple even more?

There’s still time to buy tickets to see Ciara perform along with Kendrick Lamar and Diddy and the Bad Boy Family at ESSENCE Festival 2016 tonight. Click here to purchase tickets for tonight’s show.
