Rapper Nelly Insulted During Poker Game
4 years ago08 Feb
Hip Hop star Nelly has hit the headlines after a casino rant went viral, the rapper unhappy about a fellow player slagged off his play and told him to âget under my nuts!â
The 45-year old Texan double Grammy award-winner â whose real name is Cornell Iral Haynes Jr. â can be seen and heard arguing with a pit boss at the Mohegan Sun Casino in Connecticut, according to TMZ.
The Mohegan Sun itself, however, said that the footage âdoes not look to beâ from their casino, while several other casinos also said it wasnât from their establishments.
The del Lago Resort & Casino where Nelly performed last Saturday evening, told CTPost news outlet "we can confirm that the video was not shot at del Lago Resort & Casino."
Wherever the incident actually happened, it appears that the confrontation arose over a game of Casino Holdâem, with a fellow player of the table game reportedly telling Nelly âyou donât know how to playâ.
This was followed by the âget under my nutsâ insult, with Nelly replying âget off my nuts, bro!â before the floor became involved.
With the casino employee claiming not to have heard the insults, a by now irate Nelly complained several times that:
âI expect you to be on their side.â
Another player at the table can then be heard asking to cash out and leaving the table.
Nelly is far from the first rapper to court problems and controversy at casinos.
We reported last year on Meek Millâs run in with The Cosmopolitan Casino in Las Vegas, the rapper calling the casino âracist as hellâ after being denied entry, posting the confrontation with security on Instagram
In 2018 we reported on Public Enemy legend Flavor Flav being assaulted in the lounge of the South Point Casino in Las Vegas, his attacker cited for misdemeanour battery, with video footage again going viral via TMZâŚ
