Nelly ‘arrested for ecstasy possession’ in Missouri and has glassy eyes in mugshot as he expects baby with wife Ashanti
NELLY has been arrested for the possession of drugs.
The rapper is most known for his massive hits including Hot In Herre and Dilemma.
According to arrest records, Nelly, 49, was arrested in Maryland Heights, Missouri, a suburb outside St. Louis.
He was cited for possession of four ecstasy pills and having no insurance.
The Grillz rapper was pulled over by the Maryland Heights Police Department early Wednesday morning and was taken into custody around 4:45 am.
He has since been released.
In his mugshot first obtained by TMZ, the rap music star slightly smiled while wearing a white T-shirt underneath a black hooded sweatshirt.
Nelly, full name Cornell Haynes II, is currently expecting a baby with his wife singer Ashanti.
AWW BABY!
Back in April, Ashanti posted a video on her Instagram profile with the caption, "Baby baby baby baby…."
The clip showed the Foolish singer preparing to hit the stage as her mom asked her how long it was until showtime.
Ashanti walked out behind a curtain to show her mom a positive pregnancy test and revealed, "About nine months."
The video also seemed to promote the at-home fertility test brand, Proov.
