Weezy Cheating His Canadian Fans?

Jul 01 | by Natasha

I received several e-mails from disgruntled Lil Waynefans this weekend. Apparently, Mr. Carter was supposed to do a Canadian tour stopping at several cities kicking off Sunday after his stint at Summerfest in Florida. However, he failed to show up at his first stop at Montreal's Tribe Hyperclub, as well as didn't show up at the other place he was scheduled to host at that night in Montreal. And now, I'm told that he has cancelled all the rest of the Canadian dates. No reasons were given as to why he failed to show up and cancelled upcoming dates. And his fans are fuming because they paid good money in this recession (upwards of $1500 for a table and $150 for a regular ticket) and some won't be getting a refund for most of it. And some folks are calling foul on the club owners since apparently they knew he wasn't going to show up Sunday night. But they didn't tell the guests who paid their money for the tix. So people just waited all night in vain and were extra pissy. Here's one reader's account of what went down:

Yesterday June the 29th, I went to a club named Tribe Hyperclub, Lil' Wayne was to perform and host the event. The tickets the first day were 20$ and it went up every day some people I know even paid 150$. Me and my girls grabbed a table upstairs for 1500$. The club was packed everybody was all dressed up, but Lil' Wayne never showed up. Today when I went on your page I saw that Lil' Wayne performed in South Florida over the weekend. I think this was a scam I don't even know if Lil' Wayne was really coming, apparently one of the reasons he did not make it was because he was and I quote "too f*cked up". Throughout the whole night we heard bouncers saying that Weezy was stuck at the border and another one said he was on the plane. I want to sue the organizers on the ground of false advertising since they never delivered what they had told us.

Let me find out Wayne's getting a cut of that ticket money even when he's not showing up. This ish is quite suspect.

Meanwhile, he just announced his deal with Halo Champagne--his own brand/company. He teamed up with Voirin-Jumeh and Milestone Brands to launch the brand. Here's a snippet of the press release: Superstar rapper, Lil’ Wayne is putting his genius into another industry. The Billboard chart topper, "Lollipop" video, introduced to the world his new champagne, Halo. Halo, which will be in stores the fall of 2008, features four different champagnes, Halo Brut, Halo Brut Vintage, Halo Rose, and Halo Pinnacle. “Champagne is for celebrating,” said Wayne about his new top shelf project. “I’m ready to put my foot in a new door,” added the charismatic New Orleans native. “There are so many different business opportunities; I want to take advantage of it all." Interesting. Too bad there was no Halo for his Canadian fans.

I think it was the club

I think it was the club owners and organizers using a well known celebrity to scam people out of money ... Especially if you look at those crazy prices they were charging people ... If I was them I would be suing or whooping somebody's ass about my money :P

Not every woman gets down like that huh. I never said that I didn't know that it happens Justice. I think its simply hilarious that someone is 'proud' and boasts about their sexual encounters with people they don't know and will never see again. Believe it or not, there are 'good girls' left. I don't proclaim to be a saint, but I have never had a one night stand, would not participate in that groupie craziness and definitely wouldn't boast and brag about having done so. Like I said, it's pure hilarity in deed.

The concert got cancelled

The concert got cancelled because Lil' Wayne had felony charges (drugs or gun possession, one of the two). Alot of dissapointed fans. But its happened before with other entertainers, I think the promoters need to check these things out before promoting an event.

That's what they get for paying $150-$1500, to see Lil' Wayne. I like some of the m/f's music too, but that's preposterous!! All that money to do what? Get shot or get in a fight or get looked at directly by him. Ain't!

LiL Wayne was also scheduled

LiL Wayne was also scheduled to perform today (Canada Day) at Circa Nightclub in Toronto. While everyone was else was willing to dish out $50+ dollars to see him, I knew hiss a$$ wouldn't show up. And I was proven right just now by reading this post. I don't rate LiL Wayne at all. Toronto people are the wrong people to piss off. This sn't something we'll forget. Club promoters down here probably thought he really would show up. Many other performers have shown up on time no problem, but Weezy is one dude I knew for a fact wouldn't be coming. To my friends who paid good money... I TOLD YOU SOOO!
