Just because you're a world famous rapper, it doesn't mean you can do what you want, where you want. That's a lesson Lil Wayne had to learn the hard way. According to a new report, the "Glory" rapper was booted off a private jet by the pilot after lighting up joints with his crew.
Wayne and his posse were taking a flight from Ft. Lauderdale to an unknown location when they told the pilot that they wanted to smoke weed and sip sizzurp while in flight, TMZ reports. The pilot rejected Wayne's requests, citing safety hazards. However, once the plane took off, the Young Money rapper and his crew lit up anyway.
However, the pilot held true to his word and promptly turned the private jet around. Wayne and his crew were in the air for a total of 17 minutes. Later, he was photographed leaving the aircraft with a joint and cup in hand.
The grounded plane incident is a mild embarrassment for Wayne, but it's not the only scandal to rock the rapper in recent months. Weezy is currently in the midst of a slowly escalating feud between himself, his former mentor and Cash Money partner Birdman and Birdman's new protégé Young Thug.
Last week, news broke that Birdman (real name: Jeffery Lamar Williams) and Young Thug (real name: Bryan Williams) has hired a hit on Wayne (real name: Dwayne Carter) in a Bloods-related shooting. Though Wayne's tour bus suffered $20,000 in damages, neither the rapper nor the dozen people travelling were hurt when Bloods member Jimmy Winfrey opened fire on his vehicle.
That's not all, after Wayne sued Birdman and Cash Money for $50 million over unpaid royalties, Birdman turned around and sued Jay Z's TIDAL for the same amount after Wayne dropped the Free Weezy Album on the streaming service.
