Nelly Arrested In St. Louis For Ecstasy Possession

Rapper Nelly had a rocky morning.

According to reports, around 4:45 am on Wednesday (Aug. 7), the “Ride Wit Me” artist was arrested in the St. Louis area for possession of a controlled substance and not having insurance. It’s said that Nelly, 49, real name Cornell Haynes II, had four ecstasy pills in his possession during the arrest. He was taken to the Maryland Heights Police Department and has since been released.

This incident comes after a performance Nelly gave last year where several fans speculated he was high while on stage. As previously reported, in January 2023, Nelly hit the stage at Juicy Fest in Australia. Amid his set, however, concertgoers noticed he appeared to struggle to keep his eyes open, and instead kept rolling them and strangely smiling.
