Caught rotten: Bow Wow gets caught lying about his ‘private jet’

It doesn’t get much more embarrassing than this.

Do we all remember Bow Wow? The rapper formerly known as Lil Bow Wow who also starred in movies like Like Mike and The Fast and the Furious: Tokyo Drift? Well, the now 30-year-old rapper (yep, we feel hella old too) took to Instagram yesterday to share, what to many celebrities would be, a fairly standard picture of his private jet. “Travel day. NYC press run for Growing Up Hip Hop. Lets go. I promise to bring y'all the hottest show EVER,” read the caption on the impressive image.

However, one eagle-eyed fan, who also happened to be in the air that day, was a little surprised when Bow Wow walked onto his flight. Sharing the sighting on Snapchat and then on Twitter, the user said: “So Bow Wow is on my flight to NY. But on Instagram he posted a picture of a private jet”.

It has since been revealed that Bow Wow downloaded the stock image from the internet - and as you would expect, Twitter is not letting him away with it.
