It Don't Float His Boat

Filed under: Drugs

rayjdrugs__opt1.jpg

Former sex tape star, Ray J, is finally speaking out about the incident last week when he was kicked out of the Hyatt Regency in Washington D.C. due to an alleged drug find.

Reports were that Ray J was found with "the Boat", also known as PCP.

In response to the media coverage, he has issued the following statement, written completely by his publicists:

"The defamatory statements made by the staff at the Washington D.C. Hyatt accusing me of using the drug 'boat' or PCP are totally false and are an attempt by them to gain publicity for their hotel. These drugs are illegal and since the police were called, I would have been arrested if I had these drugs in my possession. The statements made by the hotel staff are extremely damaging, and I'm contemplating legal action. "

Interesting.

Wonder who to believe, but we doubt the Hyatt wants to be in any way associated with Ray J.

    I think that the Hyatt is just trying to gain publicity, because if the cops were called he wouldve definately been arrested….you know cops just love to arrest celebrities. Im not saying that ray-j is innocent, but the story seems really fishy!

    He has a point…he'd be in jail if all that stuff was found in his room.

    Yea, right. I live in DC and I can assure you anything is possible where the cops are concerned. The Hyatt just wanted this creep out. IF the police came they just looked the other way in exchange for some cash or an autograph. Gimme a break.

    "I'm contemplating legal action. "

    Translation: "I'm trying to borrow money for a lawyer, or looking for one that will work pro bono."

    Wow…not only do you report on things WAAAAAAAAAAAY later than them, but you even STEAL their headlines! Wow…and I thought TMZ were crappy, so what does that make somebody who steal from them? PATHETIC!

  20. Monstr says – reply to this

    …because it's GREAT publicity to have a story that a drug dealer was busted at your business.

    Sorry Ray J, not a lot of hotels are able to dock your "boat", so get over yourself and go to rehab… like the rest of the celebrity rejects.

    Put HIM on the boat and SEND HIM BACK!

    When you cooperate, the police always toss small quantities. Heck they also combine separate bags and don't bother charging minor dealers and users as dealers anymore.

    Sorry Ray-J - DC Hotels have no interest in gaining publicity through you. This town is not LA - If you aren't a politician, or a real star like Bono or Angelina Jolie coming through town, frankly we just don't care. Get over yourself and get off the dope!

    shut the fuck up u racist bitch! U WISH U HAD THOSE DUDEZ MONEY U BROKE BITCH



  34. 34

    Well his point about being arrested there for the drugs is a good one. I really do think if he had drugs on him he would have at least been there until bail was posted. Maybe he bribed them but who knows, but he doesn't seem like he could afford that.



  35. 35

    Having this NON-celebrity idiot, formaldehyde or no formaldehyde, in your hotel is negative publicity in the superlative.
    Any self-respecting hotel would have squelched the entire affair.
    He's as deluded with conceit as Kanye West if he thinks that any hotel would exploit circumstances like this for "publicity".
    Shit. There are some really dumbass people in this world.
    And there will be no "legal action". I'm sure this loser has plenty of time on his hands to "contemplate" a lot. When he should be working for a living.

    That is right Ray J you do not let any racist push you around HELL NO They trying to get they name in the press because you are who you are and that is when they get pushed the hell back. The community will picket they asses ad it will not be pretty when they get called on they lies and bullshizz.

    The ni@@er should have his balls cut off what a pig…..



  39. 39

    I do not think he did it…PCP is not normally used by African Americans..Not trying to be racial at all….I am a nurse, and it is always the same type of person to use it, and he is not that type…I am going to get backlash, and that is okay, as I have statistics to back me up.

  40. Erica says – reply to this

    Okay, I swear. I do PR for a hotel chain. I am responsible for getting them in the press and getting the name "out there." And there is NO WAY that any hotel would promote the story that a rap star was using PCP in one of their rooms as a way to "gain publicity."

    If anything, it detracts from the good name of the hotel. In fact, we've had drunk stars at my hotels. And we do everything we can to get them cleaned up and into their rooms so that nobody gets embarrassed. That is called good service. A hotel should be a safe, quiet, elegant place to spend the night. Not the red light district (Elliot Spitzer), South Central (Ray Jay and his "boat") or any other manifestation of shitty, low class, illegal behavior.

    Ray Jay may be right that the cops would have arrested him if they found PCP. But he's wrong the the hotel is using this incident as a way to get publicity. I guarantee you - he will never get a room there again.

    "attempt by them to gain publicity for their hotel"

    That is the stupidest statement ever, why would a hotel want to be known for having drugs on the premises, stupid moolies.

  44. victim says – reply to this


    44

    I dont know what the truth is but I have stayed at the hotel and the staffs were totally rude and ignorant. They made some rude remarks, refused to answer questions and ignored customers. I already forgot that horrible trip but this ray j story reminds me how bad the hotel was.

    He has a point… if PCP was found, he would have been arrested, not just kicked out.

  49. krissy says – reply to this

    oh yeah, because it's GREAT publicity for a hotel to say, "Drug users stay here!" I know that's where I would want to stay on my vacation. Give me a break. Just confess to it you dumb shit.

    In my line of work I often use large hotels for my conferences, the Hyatt corporation in recent years has become known for thier poor management style. I do not think the Hyatt wants the press surrounding Ray J, I think this is another example of thier piss poor business acumen which I have experienced first hand.
