Nelly Partially Drops His Pants for Sean John Underwear
The first ad for Diddy's Sean John underwear line featuring Nelly has been revealed, but the ad only features half the underwear.
Said Diddy: "[Nelly has the attitude, the swagger, and most of all the physique that our customers can both aspire and relate to … And let's be honest, all of the ladies out there are going to be thanking us for this campaign."
While the ladies may be pleased, the folks unhappy with the saggy pants trend certainly won't be.
One more AFTER THE JUMP...

Well, Sis, I'd like him to pull his pants up before I pull them down. I don't like that pants hanging off the booty style. I'm an old fashioned kinda' I mean, queen. Whenever I saw a young guy with his pants saggin' off his pants I shunned him, and he had to find someone else to go into the bushes with...most the time...well, when I was half sober.

"pants saggin' off his ass"
Monday withdrawal, baby. Shoulda' brought a flask to work with me. They don't care here.

"And let's be honest, all of the ladies out there are going to be thanking us for this campaign."
...and we ALL know that 'the ladies' are exactly who's going to be purchasing and wearing diddly's panties.
So why not have Nelly model the panties for the ladies?
I understand Lil Kim is going to be modeling jockstraps and cups in diddly's next ad campaign.

geez...nelly sure can't sell his music anymore, so he resorts to selling undies.
how lame

First all, who wants to buy ANYTHING from douchey-ass Sean Jean? Any true hood boy knows that Roca Wear is the business.
That said, I'd have Nelly over to my place and have him switch up into a little somethin' somethin' from my private collection.

Nelly is the hotness. But this photo is not.
Lose the pants completly and show us what he's working with. You know for all the ladies...
Posted by: David@GentsCanineSociety | Jul 28, 2008 2:40:42 PM
Dave, I second that! Lose the trou, there, Nelly!
Unless, of course, Beckham and his Armani bulge spoiled it for everyone...

How sad, sad, sad..."Nelly has the attitude, the swagger, and most of all the physique that our customers can both aspire and relate to … And let's be honest, all of the ladies out there are going to be thanking us for this campaign." YUK! I don't think so.

The tats are the best part! Tats are rebellious, too many are self indulgent, but none is too squeaky clean!

I have no problem with saggy pants, but where are his feet?? This picture makes him look like a midget..
Posted by: David | Jul 28, 2008 6:16:06 PM
TY
for me
Tats are masks guys put on to hide themselves. It denotes (for me) psychological weakness/ fright at being totaly naked / vulnerable. I also include piercings in with tats
Anyway; 1 is tolerable, but more than one when one gets old with wrinkly saggy skin will look like Slvadore Dali melting clocks
I just do not find tats and piercings nice to look at on a guy.

He looks like he's trying to fart.
Posted by: anon | Jul 28, 2008 6:30:52 PM
Eh, he's got a good body but otherwise the photo is just like every other ad you might see in a gay magazine hawking underpants. As a side note it's moderately interesting that mainstream advertising continues to sexualize male models outside the gay media market.
But ever since he came on the scene, I've idly wondered why he chose to call himself "Nelly" given the actual meaning of the word and the rampant homophobia in the hip-hop world.

Nice physique, but horrible tats. I agree, one (tasteful) tattoo is ok, but when someone inks up their body, it's an incredible turnoff. At least piercings can be taken out.
The lowrider pants are SO over, too. Don't they realize that started in prison?
But my question is, who in their right mind would wear junk by Sean John anyway?
Posted by: Chad | Jul 28, 2008 10:06:53 PM
Only ladies? Come on. P Diddy perhaps is being evasive on the issue of the general appeal of this torso. So many straights are, actually.

Just another "entertainer" who spends more time doing 'roids and shaving his pubes then turning out decent music.

I like a hot, hunky & hung black man, but, it sure ain't Nelly. Couldn't Sean have have found a better stud to model for him.
Posted by: GEOFF | Jul 29, 2008 9:44:15 AM
Geoff, i agree with you. Sure don't turn me on.
Posted by: MICHAEL | Jul 29, 2008 9:46:29 AM
Guys, i agree with you both. Nelly sure don't get me hard at all. Now Tyson.....

you know, Mike, given that it's Lil Kim, that actually might be hot. it's too bad she went under the knife, but she's got serious sex appeal. she knows how to extrude sex.
