Nelly is letting it all hang out.
The St. Louis rapper found himself in the headlines after a video of him receiving oral sex leaked. The explicit clip was posted to Nelly’s Instagram Story on Tuesday (Feb. 8). It was quickly deleted but not before it was recorded and reshared online.
Nelly’s name started to trend as social media weighed in on the size of his anatomy, posting memes and jokes at his expense. His ex Ashanti also began trending.

Nelly tells TMZ that the video is old and was never intended to be shared publicly. In a statement, he apologized to the woman.
“I sincerely apologize to the young lady and her family, this is unwanted publicity for her/them,” he said. “This was an old video that was private and never meant to go public.”
Nelly’s team claims that he may have been hacked. They are investigating a breach and are worried that more of his personal information could end up online, including financial information, personal documents, and passwords.
Nelly may have learned about the viral clip while conducting a live interview with Kevin Hart for Barstool Sports.
“Oh God,” Nelly said while looking down at his phone. But he kept smiling and continuing with the interview.
Love how cocky Nelly was a minute after realizing his dick was all over the internet 😂😂 Shrugging it off and laughing while he shows it to Kevin pic.twitter.com/VIgjWk3WwZ
