Ep 30. Nelly
- September 13, 2004
In the fast-driving, high-spending world of hip-hop, Nelly is King of Bling. From his multi-platinum selling albums, to his clothing line and movie production company, this media mogul is quickly becoming the richest impresario on the block. Netting almost $150,000 a month, this rap star can afford to buy a his own town of Nellyville - in fact, he hasn't ruled it out.
Known both for his .99 cent band-aids and his hundred thousand dollar diamond-encrusted jewelry, Nelly is a millionaire with street sensibilities. With a platinum and diamond pendant in the shape of a Ram and an '83 Cutlass painted blue and gold, Nelly has found new ways to show his devotion to favorite sports team and spend millions of bucks in the process.
He's also stayed true to his hometown of St. Louis where he lives in a million-dollar lakefront mansion tricked out with tropical fish aquariums. And when he tires of his oceanic playground, Nelly drives to his second St. Louis home, which he calls "his closet", only few miles away.
With a fleet of suped-up cars, millions in customized jewelry, tailor-made suits by his own top-secret designer, and a 300 pound bodyguard, Big B, to protect his all his assets, Nelly is truly living the fabulous life.
