Her pops, her management,” Nelly told The Breakfast Club. “I’m gonna tell you what really threw me, right?

She called me one night, just out of the blue, and said, ‘Yo, Nelly, listen, me and my friends, we made a routine to ‘Hot in Herre’ last night and I wanna ask you a really big favor.’""Now, I’m in St.

Louis, and she’s in Houston.

She said, ‘I got two shows in Houston tomorrow and the next day.

Can you come down to Houston and just perform it?

I don’t wanna disrespect you.

I don’t really have a budget like that," the crooner recalled.“Now, listen to her.

She says she doesn’t really have a budget.

But she said, ‘What I will do is send my plane.

I’ll get your room and all of that.

And we only have like $50,000.’ I said, ‘Can you put that in a McDonald’s bag?’ I said, ‘But I would’ve done it for free,'” added Nelly.It is worth mentioning here that Taylor and Nelly performed Just a Dream at the 2011 show.
