She served up sin with a side of Southern charm — and business was always booming. This week on Melanin Mayhem, we peel back the bedsheets on Nellie Jackson, the legendary Natchez madam who turned her brothel into the hottest hoe house in Mississippi. She wasn’t just turning tricks — she was turning profits, protecting her girls, and playing the game better than most men in power. Nellie wasn’t just in the business of pleasure — she was the plug, the protector, and the queen of a red-light empire that stayed lit for decades. But when the curtains finally closed, it wasn’t the law that came for her — it was something far more fatal.
Sex, secrets, and a fire that burned more than just the house down — this is one hell of a story.
