2/19/09 Nelly Plans New TV Show In Vegas

[fearless31666]

It looks like Nelly may be hitting your television soon with a new variety show called "Nelly's Night in Vegas." The new weekly show is being created by "The Daily Show" co-creator Madeleine Smithberg and Dave Broome, producer of "The Biggest Loser." The new show will be filmed in Planet Hollywood's Las Vegas hotel and will feature performances, guest appearances, some type of gaming element and Nelly's own house band.

"I was thinking about what was missing on TV, and when this idea came about, it made sense for me," Nelly said. "We do have talk shows, but no one's speaking from the pop culture perspective. Let's get a little more pop, a little more edge, a little bit younger, and not look like you're sitting in the principal's office.”
