Rumor Denied - Lil’ Wayne Not In Rehab!
As reported by LilWayneHQ.com yesterday (August 27), rumor had it that Lil Wayne missed his scheduled court date in Arizona because he checked himself into rehab. Now word on the streets is the rapper was a no show not because of addiction treatment, but because he was being treated for some serious dental issues.
According to Mediatakeout.com, the N.O. native was being treated by a dentist in Miami when he was supposed to be in court.
“Lil Wayne has very bad teeth problems,” an alleged insider told the gossip giant. “His dentist spoke with the judge to let him know that Lil Wayne was under his care here in Miami.”

T-Pain Talks “T-Wayne” Album With Lil’ Wayne
With their two most recent collaborations gaining airplay and chart positions, T-Pain and Lil Wayne’s proposed collaborative effort also continues to build momentum.
The T-Wayne project has even gained the support and involvement of several high profile producers, T-Pain told AllHipHop.com during a recent interview promoting his third studio album, Thr33 Rings.
“That’s going down. Heavily,” T-Pain told AllHipHop.com, promising that this project won’t go the way of other rumored superstar collaborations.
“We’ve already got like 25 songs,” T-Pain revealed. “It’s going down after my album drops. Could be the beginning of next year, like January/February.”
Now, with Timbaland and Pharrell Williams having voiced an interest in joining the project, T-Pain says he hopes to bring in superstar rapper/producer Kanye West.
T-Pain and West’s last major collaboration, “Good Life,” won a Grammy Award in 2008 for Best Rap Song.
Throughout the summer, both T-Pain and Lil Wayne have confirmed their desire to create a joint project, capitalizing on the success they’ve had with hit singles like DJ Khaled’s “I’m So Hood” and more recently “Got Money” and “Can’t Believe It,” from Tha Carter III and Thr33 Ringz respectively.
However, T-Pain says the project may be delayed by label red tape, especially if all three multi-platinum producers get involved.
But ultimately, T-Pain says he is determined to deliver the project to the fans.
“If anything, we ain’t making no goals for the date,” T-Pain told AllHipHop.com. “If we really gotta do it as an album and all those labels gotta work together, it’ll come out like, two years from now. So if it just falls into a bunch of leaks or if it falls into a mixtape, that’s fine. We might just take the songs we’ve got and say: ‘Here you go world. T-Wayne project. Right up. For free.”

Lil’ Wayne Misses Court Date, Rumored To Be In Rehab
Lil Wayne has missed his scheduled court date yesterday (August 26). Normally, this would be mentioned as a tidbit in passing, but some sources are reporting the rapper may have been a no show because he just checked himself into rehab.
Lil Wayne was scheduled to appear in a Yuma County, Arizona court room to answer to drug charges.
KYMA Channel 11 is reporting the rapper failed to appear because of an “undisclosed medical procedure.”
According to Mediatakeout.com, however, several sources are claiming “Lil Wayne checked himself into a Florida drug rehab over the weekend.”
The drug charges against Wayne stem from his arrest back in January when federal agents seized 41 grams of ecstasy, 105 grams of marijuana, and 29 grams of cocaine from him.
He is scheduled to show up to court again in October.
Wayne and his camp have not issued any statement addressing the rehab rumors.
