Soulja Boy Kicked Off Plane For Being Disrespectful (Video)
From TMZ:
Soulja Boy has a lot in common with Alec Baldwin — not that he’s as talented, but he’s definitely as disrespectful on American Airlines, because the renegade rapper got booted from an AA plane after causing a pre-flight scene.
Just like Alec, Soulja was on American Airlines Friday when the flight attendant took the mic and told everyone to sit the f**k down. Soulja, who was standing and walking the aisles, didn’t follow the command.
Just like Alec, a flight attendant approached the rapper and repeated the order and explained the consequences if he didn’t obey.
Just like Alec, the rapper blew her off.
And just like Alec, he was “removed” from the plane.
Unlike Alec, Soulja was actually contrite, telling TMZ, “It was a bad night and me and the flight staff didn’t see eye to eye. In hindsight, I’m extremely sorry for all inconvenience caused to the passengers and employees of the airline.”
Unlike Alec, Soulja probably will not get a Capital One commercial because … well, you know — he’s Soulja Boy, right?
Riff Raff Arrested For Drug Possession (Video)
From TMZ:
The rapper was tooling around Greensboro at around 2:30 AM and bizarrely stopped in the middle of traffic to talk to a bunch of pedestrians … and if we know our Riff Raff, we’re guessing he was pimpin’ it.
Cops approached the vehicle and say they saw an open container of alcohol, which then triggered a full-blown search of the vehicle. That’s when police say they found weed and some sort of powerful narcotic, along with drug paraphernalia.
The former MTV reality star was arrested along with his 2 passengers and taken to jail, where they were booked and released without bail.
Cops say Riff turned on the Southern charm, because he was “not aggressive and polite.”
