14 DAY TRIAL // Rapper Bow Wow, who broke on the scene as Lil’ Bow Wow, is now being targeted on the Internet by the online community for getting drunk behind the wheel and even taking to Twitter to boast about it. According to celebrity gossip website TMZ, the rapper took the tweets down after he sobered up, but the damage had already been done by that time.
Bow Wow had been drinking with his good friend Chris Brown, who is also not a stranger to getting behind the wheel after one drink too many. Shortly after leaving the club, presumably also in Brown’s company, from what the tweets seem to imply, Bow Wow took to Twitter to say he was completely smashed up and should not be driving – yet he was.
“The Artist Formerly Known as Lil’ Bow Wow, who partied with Brown and Akon last night at LIV nightclub at the Fontainbleau in Miami, posted a message to his Twitter page just past midnight that read, ‘Face numb im whippin the lambo. Tispy as [expletive]. Just left @livmiami.’ A few minutes later, Mr. Wow wrote, ‘Im [expletive]-ed up!!! Ohhhh damn. Y i drive the lambo. Chris might have to drive after next spot.’ BTW, the tweet isn’t enough for cops to make an arrest,” TMZ says.
Hours later, presumably after a downpour of complaints from his followers, Bow Wow removed his tweets about driving the Lamborghini after a night out drinking. “Apologize for that tweet. it was stupid and immature. not a way i want to kick my #2010 year off. i got too much good stuff lined up. my bad,” the rapper wrote by means of an apology to his fans who, most often than not, also see him as a role model.
Still, followers who saw the tweets are not yet ready to let Bow Wow get off the hook that easily. Some have even gone ahead and taken snaps of the tweets in question so that, should he ever deny their existence, they have something to prove their story. Either way, the kind of example that Bow Wow set the other night was not the right one and the least he could do now would be to issue an official apology, some say.
