Lil Wayne Denies Inviting Hooker to His Miami Mansion
(Entertainment Wise) – Well, it’s certainly been an eventful week at the Lil Wayne household to say the least. Following an elaborate hoax misleading police that four people had been shot at the notorious rapper’s Miami bachelor pad, a hooker arrived at the scene – but not for Young Weezy, apparently.
The prostitute turned up at Wayne’s Miami Beach house claiming she had been personally requested by the hip-hop heavyweight, while he says she was definitely not invited to the party. By him anyway.
TMZ report sources close to the rapper assure someone has totally got it in for the 32-year-old and this is just another harassing incident haunting the music mogul in the last two weeks. On Wednesday, he became the latest victim of ‘swatting’ – a seriously crazy stunt which lead to a SWAT team clearing the star’s small palace after reports four men had been shot and wounded inside.

As part of Love Life Week, the Love Life Foundation was honored to produce the 1974-75 World Champion Golden State Warrior Day.
It’s a shame that our first Bay Area World Championship team’s unique accolades had been lost in the pre social media era and the cultural revolution of the 1970s.
The 1975 NBA World Championship team were invited back to the City of Oakland last Friday, to be properly celebrated for their ground-breaking performance in 1975.
The heartwarming ceremony highlighted the recent passing of the legendary coach of that team, Al Attlles, and his former players Clifford Ray and Charles Dudley were on hand to represent the “Cardiac Kids” as they were called back then for their ability to make great comeback victories during their run for the title.
Warriors great Chris Mullin and former spiritual advisor Gary Reeves gave heartfelt testimonies of their experiences under Attles’ leadership and their relationship with the inspiration they received from the NBA 1975 World Champion Golden State Warriors.
The City of Oakland provided proclamations to all parties with speeches made by city leadership including Mayor Sheng Thao and Deputy Mayor Dr. Kimberly Mayfield and activity host Love Life non-profit founder and Executive Director Donald E. Lacy Jr..
There will be a celebration of life event Nov. 9 honoring Attles’ legacy at Alameda College.
