Nelly's birthday celebration came only a few days after he paid tribute to his late sister Jackie Donahue.
As expected, the picture got the attention of fans who took to the comments section to leave their reactions and thoughts. While some joined Jackson in wishing Nelly a happy birthday, others could not stop gushing about the duo's looks as they reminisced over the music video.
Nelly's birthday celebration came only a few days after he paid tribute to his late sister Jackie Donahue who passed away in 2005 from leukemia.
The rapper who is currently a contestant on the ABC dance show, "Dancing With the Stars," teamed up with his partner Daniella Karagach for a moving performance in honor of Donahue.
The duo danced the ballroom rumba to the song "Rich Project" by The Tony Rich Project, which Nelly revealed was one of Donahue's favorite songs before her demise.
Speaking about his sister, Nelly described her as a great big sister who took her responsibility seriously. He added that she was a tough cookie who loved and cared for people around her.
Nelly also said that Donahue would have been pleased with his performances on the show and admitted that it would have put a smile on her face.
Without a doubt, Nelly misses his big sister a great deal and will continue to honor her in his heart. For the rapper, Donahue will always live on, and not even death can break their bond.
