Nelly and Snoop Dogg are no strangers to acting as their film and television roles are just as popular as their music. Recently, the two rappers were cast in an episode of The CW's "90210." The show has featured quite a few rappers in its short run.

Snoop Dogg has played in many films, including a few serious roles. However, the rapper's most-famous film role was likely Soul Plane. Snoop's scene will not be a major one on "90210." He will be shown at a local car wash in the episode, but Nelly's role will be a little bigger.

In 2005, Nelly made a famous appearance on The Longest Yard. Nelly has also made small appearances on such shows as "CSI: New York." His appearance on "90210" is a chance for Nelly to market his new music. In the episode, Nelly will be playing himself as he is filming a new video. There has not been any news about when the episode of the show will broadcast. It is likely to air sometime towards the end of the current season.
