Nelly to Star in New Reality Show with Floyd Mayweather's Ex Shantel Jackson
Rapper Nelly will be coming to our television screens soon through a reality show alongside his girlfriend Shantel Jackson.
The Hollywood Reporter recently confirmed the 39-year-old Real Husbands Of Hollywood star will once again appear on the small screen by way of his own reality TV show.
The unnamed eight-episode program will reportedly be an hour long and will follow Nelly as he juggles his rap career, being co-owner of the Charlotte Bobcats NBA team and his controversial relationship with Floyd Mayweather's ex-girlfriend Shantel aka Miss Jackson.
During Mayweather's long running feud with the rapper, he previously claimed Miss Jackson, 29, told him that her relationship with Nelly was only publicity for a reality show that she was hoping to launch.
"I'm not mad about any relationship or them [Nelly and Miss Jackson] hanging out. She [Miss Jackson] like to come and tell me, 'Well, it's all for publicity. I gotta do what's best for me. I'm using it as stepping stone so I can get my reality show started'", he said.
The world boxing champ, 37, and Jackson broke up earlier this year when he blasted her on social media for an alleged abortion.
Sharing a picture of the alleged paperwork from the procedure on his Facebook page, he wrote "The real reason me and Shantel Christine Jackson @missjackson broke up was because she got a abortion, and I'm totally against killing babies. She killed our twin babies". #ShantelJackson #FloydMayweather #TheMoneyTeam #TMT
The music video model has since started a relationship with Nelly and claims to be in love with the rapper. However, their upcoming show will undoubtedly be filled with drama due to the controversy their relationship has courted over recent months.
An air date for the show is yet to be confirmed.
