Brown & Bow Wow Rejected From Cash Money Party
R&B singer Chris Brown and rapper Bow Wow were left red-faced during a recent night out in New York City, after they failed to crash a star-studded party hosted by rap crew Cash Money.
The Kiss Kiss hitmaker and the hip-hop star reportedly crashed a listening party for rapper Drake's new album at MSR studios, hosted by bosses at his incarcerated mentor Lil Wayne's record label on Wednesday (02Jun10).
The pair were reportedly turned away because they weren't on the invited guest list - but it wasn't the only rejection the duo faced that night.
According to the New York Post, the pals were turned away again by security at another hotspot, celebrity nightclub SL - because their entourage was too big.
A source says, "They showed up with a huge entourage all trying to get in, but they were totally denied at the door."
Plies Pulls Vh1 Hip Hop Performance To Meet Fans
Rapper Plies scrapped his planned performance at the VH1 Hip-Hop Honors on Thursday (03Jun10), so he could greet his fans on a promo tour for his new album.
The star was due to play a set at the event in New York, which celebrated the artists and musical influences of the U.S.' southern states.
However, Plies - real name Algernod Washington - decided his devotees were more important, and pulled out of the ceremony to continue the promotion of his new record, Goon Affiliated.
He tells AllHipHop.com, "I had to make a choice between personally meeting with my fans during my album promo tour or performing at the VH1 Hip-Hop Honors and the choice was easy - fans come first."
Rap pioneers and southern natives Jermaine Dupri, Master P And The 2 Live Crew were all saluted at the show, which airs in America on Monday (07Jun10).
