Vibe.com: On...May 8 (2017)...30-year-old actor/rapper (Bow Wow) used a photo of a private jet to plug his upcoming reality show...“Travel day. NYC press run for Growing Up Hip Hop,” he captioned the jet pic. “Lets gooo.”

But...a crafty internet spy...happened to snap a pic of Bow apparently flying coach to New York City...

...(T)he private jet that he posted on Instagram...appears to be from a VIP transportation service out of Fort Lauderdale, Fla...(which) used the exact same image on its website...

Bow seemingly responded...(that) the grainy image of him flying commercial was actually an old pic...add(ing), “Half ya’ll broke mafukkas [sic] still can’t afford a buddy pass on Spirit airlines. Stay out the big boy lane.”

In Bow’s defense, he didn’t actually say that he was flying on that particular jet, but the implication was bad enough...

True, but he hasn't actually confirmed his May 8 travel itinerary, either, has he? Wouldn't that be a more graceful way of handling the situation rather than trying to talk tough and insult the very people who prevented him from being broke? Well, maybe he can use this as a learning experience...

AllHipHop.com: Bow Wow took to Twitter to claim he had a suite to watch the Atlanta Falcons game over the weekend. The only problem was the Falcons weren’t actually playing as it was a bye week for the team.

Or maybe not.

Apparently, this is his idea of generating publicity -- I guess some people have to learn EVERYTHING the hard way. At any rate, it's stories like these that make me proud to be a rock n' roller!
