RUMORVILLE: WHO BROKE UP ASHANTI & NELLY? MELYSSA FORD OR JESSICA “RICH” RABBIT…

“My relationship with Nelly is strictly professional. As the former spokesmodel for Apple Bottoms, our interaction was amicable but limited to work I have not seen or spoken to Nelly in 2 years so the person they are referring to in the media as “Jessica Rabbit” is not me.” states Ms. Ford. She goes on to further say “We shot an Apple Bottom campaign in 2006 in Miami and we taped the Black Poker Stars International Show on BET in Vegas in November 2007.”

“I’ve never met Nelly. I’ve seen him from a distance…I never met this guy. I don’t have his phone number. You definitely never seen me in Vegas or Miami with no Nelly. If you do a search on the internet, you’re not gonna find sh*t because its not me. There’s a lot of Jessica Rabbits out there and it sucks that everyone thinks thats its me…I don’t think its fair people are trying to put the blame on me when there’s no evidence out there at all that it was me.”
