Rapper Nelly in rape claim

RAPPER Nelly has been accused of raping a woman on his tour bus.

The American musician, 42, was arrested yesterday in Washington state soon after the alleged incident.

His lawyer said the claim was “devoid of credibility and is motivated by greed and vindictiveness”.

Nelly, who had hits with Hot in Here, and Dilemma featuring Kelly Rowland, is touring with male duo Florida Georgia Line.
