Nelly x Nelly’s Night In Vegas. Word around here in Hollywood is that Nelly is making his rounds to the major TV networks pitching a variety TV show called “Nelly’s Night in Vegas.” Fresh off of Snoop’s TV deal with MTV and MC Hammer’s deal with A&E, Nelly is looking to cash in on the trend.

According to Variety, the show would be about Nelly interacting with celebs and performing various skits. Nelly officially stated:

“I was thinking about what was missing on TV, and when this idea came about, it made sense for me. We do have talkshows, but no one’s speaking from the pop culture perspective. Let’s get a little more pop, a little more edge, a little bit younger, and not look like you’re sitting in the principal’s office. As a performer, that’s the type of show you look forward to going on.”

The show has some big time producers attached including the producer of “The Daily Show” and “The Biggest Loser” so studios are listening. As always, we’ll keep you updated once we hear a deal is in place. There are a couple more rappers out here still shopping their shows around too so expect to hear some noise soon!
