Nelly and Shantel Jackson
The show “Nellyville” aired last week and to solid
cable ratings for the BET network (1,000,000 viewers). Nelly lets
viewers into his home in St. Louis, Missouri, where he is raising
his four children. The rapper, who recently turned 40, looks as
young as ever. On the show, Nelly is good with his kids and that‘s
admirable.
Nelly’s look alike daughter Chanel recently lost her
boyfriend Mario, who died under tragic circumstances.
The rapper
tries to comfort his daughter and helps her put things in
perspective. Nelly’s new girlfriend, Shantel Jackson, 29, the money
loving ex-fiancée of wealthy boxer Floyd Mayweather, tried to
inquire about hooking Nelly’s daughter up with a “wholesome” young
man and was rebuffed (as it‘s way too soon). She shut Shantel down
(LOL).

It’s evident Nelly’s daughter is skeptical about
Shantel, as she’s probably figured out what many already believe,
she’s after him for money and fame. Shantel has very expensive
tastes, which she developed while dating Floyd “Money Is No Object”
Mayweather. Shantel pretended to be sweet, but used Mayweather,
taking so much from him and betrayed him in the process. It’s clear
she never loved him - only his money.
When the boxer dumped her for aborting his unborn
twins and lying to him that it was a miscarriage due to him
stressing her out, she ran low on funds and needed another man with
money. Enter Nelly. However, the rapper has experienced financial
setbacks from heavy spending and is just now getting back on his
feet (this resulted in Shantel suing Mayweather for a host of things
as a cash grab to live the high life again).
Nellyville
Nelly has kids to take care of and their financial
futures to plan for. Shantel needs to be mindful of that and respect
it. Nelly cannot afford for Shantel to take from his finances for
use on her infamous shopping sprees, as seen in Instagram when she
was still dating Mayweather. Be nice Shantel and leave that man’s
money alone.
Side Bar: Nelly recently did a funny
interview and when asked "As a single dad, do you have the sex talk
with your daughter?" to which he humorously responded "No! Just say
'All boys are scum.'" The rapper further stated "You know, little
boys around my daughters, I'm a proud member of the NRA (National
Rifle Association).
