"He's a great actor," gushes executive producer Pam Veasey of Nelly, whose only major thespian credit to date is 2005's The Longest Yard. "He really stepped up."

So I told you about it earlier and now here is the first official pic of NELLY as Sean John's new underwear model. Diddy had this to say:“Nelly has the attitude, the swagger, and most of all the physique that our customers can both aspire and relate to … And let’s be honest, all of the ladies out there are going to be thanking us for this campaign.”
Looks like the rumors are true. NELLY will be wearing Diddy's draws. The 'Body on Me' MC has been tapped as the spokes model for Sean John's new line of underwear.
And looks like CHRIS BROWN & NE-YO will be taking the "beef" to bubble-gum as both R&B'ers have signed on to re-imagine the theme songs for Wrigley's.
Both songs will be unveiled during a central park show. Hmmm, I smell a dance off!Tuesday, July 22, 2008

Hey! What do you want from me? It's summer, folks are on Vay Kay & laying low. So you'll take this post and you'll like it. Monday, July 14, 2008
And then there's Ashanti. Yawn. I'm sorry girlie. I really am. But you are just so extra regular. 
And of course the Sengalese pipm Akon played along with the "What happens in Vegas..." theme.Tuesday, June 24, 2008
New Era & Belvedere teamed up to host a private dinner honoring NELLY last night at STK in WeHo.The rapper/singer (I know I'm wrong for that one) looked kinda fly in his summer cashmere white. But notice who'e missing from the pics below...
The homie JD rolled through, even though I sware dude was in yesterday's pics from Italy's Fashion Week.
JILL MARIE JONES and TRACEY EDMONDS both came through looking beautiful. I love love love Jill's skirt and damn if Tracey's Herve Lager dress won't be worn in a different color to erry event this summer.
And TISHA CAMBELL (So is this split with Duane the real or what T?) came through...hmmm, questionable look mama. But your bag is hot.
So notice Nelly's boo - Ashanti - skipped the event. Perhaps she was out promoting her album (which isn't doing so hot) or perhaps the rumors (despite Nelly's insistance) are true and there is trouble in pint-sized paradise. Hmmm.

One track for sure that won't make it is "Best Thing" because as previously reported, JD produced another version with 16 bars from Hov.

Remember when NELLY promised "BIG THINGS" for his forthcoming album (the first in 4 years) Brass Knuckles?Tuesday, March 25, 2008
KANYE WEST is the latest name to hit the streets in a long line of guests on LIL' WAYNE'S much anticipated Tha Carter III (due out in May on Cash Money/Universal).
When asked about the album, Weezy was surprisingly humble about it.
“I hope it sells well,” Wayne said of the album. “I never boast because I know you can come out and not sell one record. I put my all into it, it’s me on a platter so if you don’t like it, then you don’t like me.”
Wayne told Billboard in February that Hurricane Chris, Corey Gunz, Tyga, Jibbs, Shanell, Kidd Kidd, Mack Maine and Lil’ Mama have recorded features for the album. In addition, the rapper has worked with Alchemist and Cool & Dre. 
NELLY'S BACK WITH BRASS KNUCKLES
Nelly is putting the finishing touches on his first album in four years, Brass Knuckles, due June 24th via Universal Records.
Rap-Up.com has exclusively reveal that the album will also feature collaborations with T.I., LL Cool J, Chuck D, Akon, and Ciara, who is featured on the Jermaine Dupri-produced “Stepped On My J’s.” The track is a tribute to Nike Air Jordans, which Nelly describes as “‘Grillz’ and ‘Air Force Ones’ on steroids.”
“I love Jordans. I’ve been wearing Jordans since I can remember. Ciara loves Jordans and I thought it was a crazy fit. Ciara, J.D., and I are all from the Jordan era. The song is bananas! I can’t wait for people to hear it ’cause CiCi got busy,” Nelly tells Rap-Up.com.
You can check out his first single off the album "Party People" featuring Fergie in our new music section.ESTELLE'S NO. 1 IN THE U.K. THANKS TO AN AMERICAN BOY

Her new album Shine, is out April 29th in the U.S. and March 31st in the U.K.
And finally....
FABOLOUS WANTS WHAT JAY HAS...
According to reports on MTV.com, Fabolous is looking to release a new LP sometime in August and is taking a que from Jay-Z and Lupe Fiasco, preparing a concept album, adapted from a film.
“What Jay-Z did with American Gangster… he took that Frank Lucas character and put it in the frame of his Jay character,” Fab opined. “That’s what I wanna do. I don’t wanna say I that I’m actually the character, but take some of his scenarios or some things I went through and tell it in my tone.”
Yup.
