Got Money

If anyone is worried about this financial crisis, they needn't be: Rapper Lil Wayne is not struggling for money. You can all breathe a sigh of relief.

The notorious drug addict celebrated his 26th birthday last night in Miami and was presented with his gift from Birdman: A case full of one million dollars. Was he playing Deal or No Deal? Anyway, the photo's caption reads, "Lil Wayne is happy after receiving a million dollars as a birthday present." Gee, you think? And why does this guy need a million dollars anyway? It's not like he's hurting for money after selling tons of albums. When you can freeze money and put it inside an ice sculpture, that's a pretty good indication that you don't need any more.

that is so klassy I almost shat myself.
i used to pump the Hot Boyz in my old convertable in the late 90's not realizing lil wayne was actually younger than my 19 year old self and talking about drive bys and crack at the tender age of 16 (wayne that is)
I guess 16 ain't what it used to be.
What an innocent moron I was.

the money they make is the record company's; they could be headed down the same dumb financially ignorant path as many other has -been celeberties. M.C. Hammer, Vanilla Ice, Jackson, Tyson… the list is endless. If you save your money (no matter how you make it or how much), do not f*ing blow it. This is a cliche waiting to happen.

That's quite a clever way to display ones gross wealth. It's much classier than how I go around with money taped to my my clothes shouting, I'm rich, bitches. Thats how I like to display my benjamins.

Maybe MC Hammer should have asked for a briefcase full of a million dollars instead of a backpack full of gold lame and safety goggles.

I think I am ok with someone not thinking outside the box for a gift when it is A MILLION DOLLARS IN SAID BOX. It's not like a $20 Home Depot giftcard (Thanks, Uncle Jack).

How classy. This makes me admire him more, cause why waste money donating or helping people when you can just give it so someone that already has milions. Love it.

LAL, name me 5 pop stars (notice I am not limiting this to drug smuggling black rappers) of the same age that significantly "give back" to the people.

No. 14 jujubees says:

Paris gives back to the people. She did have a cd and she gave many the gift of the herps. That's more personal than some stupid autograph.

No. 15 jujubees says:

Oh, and hair extensions. She gave us the gift of hair to glue in your head. You think p diddy has extensions. He just has lame Gatsby parties and I'm never invited so screw him.

No. 20 fucked up is the new normal says:

deimos i totally agree- you would think with all that money he would get a cooler looking ice sculpture. a money sign? played out. also, instead of having cool lights or a fog machine (isnt that what rich people have at parties?) they should have some sort of machine that "makes it rain benjamins" on all of the far poorer people at the party. AND, that brief case full of money didn't even look neatly organized. sheesh.
