It's nice to see that some people aren't being affected by the shiteous global economy!

But of course, those that aren't affected are the ones with the millions.

To celebrate Lil' Wayne's 26th birthday, rapper Birdman threw him a huge party on Monday in Miami hotspot Mansion nightclub.

Birdman, who Lil'Wayne calls his "adopted father", really went all out for the event. The two even have matching cross tattoos on their foreheads.

There was large Cash Money Records ice sculpture in the room. And the sculpture was holding bottles of Cristal, which usually retail for $1,000. There were 30 bottles there alone.

Other ice sculptures had $100 bills frozen inside.

But that isn't the best part of the night.

Pretty boy Lil' Wayne got an even better gift from Birdman.

A Lui Vuitton briefcase filled with a MILLION dollars in CASH as a gift!

Seriously!

We hope they both have some really good accountant, cuz you know the IRS is gonna want to see if that money is on the books. And, even if it's a gift, Wayne has to report that money!

Wonder if anyone stayed around for the ice sculptures to melt?

      Ok can someone please expalin to me what this idiots song is all about. I dont know what its called but it pretty much repeats the same thing over and over again throughout the song. I just dont understand the music of our generation. There is no art in it. People are not talented.

      While the american public continues to fund their disgusting extravagance by buying their shit. STOP GIVING THEM YOUR MONEY PEOPLE!!!!

      OHIO FOR OBAMA!!!!



    19. 19

      Lil wayne cant even sing…and this is what we spend our money on only so they can blow it all like its nothing…no respect at all…imagine what one night of fun could do for people around the world who have nothing.



    20. 20

      next.



    21. 21

      Wow. Must be nice having all that money for not having any talent.



    22. 22

      Re: mollymouse – I love seeing the word "bonk" in physical form. How cute!



    23. 23

      HEY BANGO I LEFT A COMMENT ON THE DAVID DUCOHVNY OUCH POST YOU MIGHT FIND FUNNY!!!!



    24. 24

      How cool..Baby just gave wayne a brand new Rolls Royce Phantom a few months ago as well, because his album did so well..If I had that kind of money I would have fun like that to.
      -
      What are you people talking about these dudes have been Rich for like 10 years..Lil Wayne Coined the phrase "Bling Bling" when he was 16..lol So I dont know why you fools say their 15 min is almost up.



    25. 25

      is it just me or does lil wayne seem like really dirty..i don't know, he just seems dirty, it might be his hair or his clothes..love his music though, just not him



    26. 26

      Wow, classy…..not.



    27. 27

      I'm sick of these ignorant no-talents going around flaunting their undeserved wealth. They disgust me. But the country deserves it if it's stupid enough to buy their crap and keep them this rich. Yuck.

      Happy Birthday Lil Weezy!!!



    29. 29

      Silly nigglets!



    30. 30

      Instead of complaining about how people spend their money why do you people try and think of ways to Make your own fortune. No body owes anyone anything. Quit waiting for someone to save the day and make it happen for yourself. Thats what Baby and Wayne did. They come from one of the poorest places in New Orleans.



    31. 31

      Ya, like lil wayne needs another million dollars



    32. 32

      mmm lil wayne so fine. ppl need to stop hatin… looove them.

      That suitcase comes with a long string and a "bend over you are my bitch now" statement



    35. 35

      Ugh, that is SO trashy!



    36. 36

      Perez… Im quite upset w/ you. You of all people should know that Wayne is not 26, but really 28 or 29. His real age was revealed after one of his many arrests.



    37. 37

      I LIKE LOLLIPOPS!



    38. 38

      I dont get what the big deal is with this guy. He's not attractive at all - and the only reason women go nuts over him is because of what you see in the pictures above - the cash. Typical American ugly-pretty relationship stuff going on. I really don't care for rape music. Talking about how much cash you have and how many hoes you bang doesn't appeal to me at all.



    39. 39

      What are they going to do with this money? Anything wise or practical?

      Nah, these 'artists' are going to blow it all on, in no particular order:

      Bling
      Bitches
      Blow
      Bentleys
      Bachelor Pads

      Hope you enjoy it while it lasts fellas, because it never does.

      Re: lefty lady – lol thanks lefty i would so bonk people over the head for that cash hahahaha!!! bonk, snatch, and run hahaha!



    43. 43

      How disgusting. Like as if they need that much money those PIGS. That's just getting worse; they're not celebrating his birthday they're celebrating how greedy they are. Like why would you want to have money sculptures on display. I'm sure the IRS will be alerted to this anyways.

      Re: ElektrickaMel – yea, and you know at the end of the night they had all the girls they wanted and did horrible, unspeakable things to them.



    47. 47

      Re: SoCal rocks – dont forget he coined the ever so masterful "call me so i can get it juicy for you" and "lick lick lick lick lick you like a lolly pop" yeah he will be rolling in the money for ever…rolling my eyes hahaha! why why do they have millionsssssss!!!! how can i too achieve that cash and party status i need to work on some catch phrases but see when white people say shit like that it just doesnt work…



    48. 48

      Soap is so much cheaper than a million.
      Buy him soap….Wash that fool.



    49. 49

      $1,000 bottle of Cristal? Is that only in LA & New York? I've seen bottles in our LIQUOR stores for less than $300.



    50. 50

      IRS Audit coming soon!



    51. 51

      Absolutely disgusting and offensive. Idiots should not have access to that much money, even if their sh!tty rapping earned it for them.



    52. 52

      Ummm… he DID adopt lil wayne when he was 9 years old after his father died. Abd U agree with #3, Lil Wayne is one ugly motherfucker.



    53. 53

      Natale #6. why are you steamed? They earned it fair and square. You just hate to see black people with money don't you? Broke bitch. can't blame that on imaginary "welfare".



    54. 54

      disgusting!!!!!



    55. 55

      Un fuck'n believable, people are loosing their homes, and then we have this shit, "look at me" i have money and i will waste it



    56. 56

      I wish I could stay 26 as long as Lil Wayne has. He's been 26 for 4 years!



    57. 57

      Ugh, they are such n ig ge r s



    58. 58

      now that's very provocative.all those who actually pay to buy this fucktard's music should see this cos it's like he's laughing at all of u, while you're struggling to live in a kinda decent way,he lives in extreme luxury.
      p.s.is it just me or he does have a serious case of the methface?



    59. 59

      The ONLY reason Lil Wayne is making HALF as much money as his ass is, simply put, is because right now rap/hip hop in general has been seriously lacking.. I remember when people used to laugh at Lil Wayne when he was compared to being half as great as some of the people who used to be out- Since everybody else hasn't been doin their thing, he had his moment to shine, and as much as I hate to say it.. I seriously hope "his moment" is done.. He's not attractive in the slightest, his raps have absolutley no emotional depth to them, let alone are usually packed with cheesy rhymes most people could make up in their sleep, he can only sing when he uses that autotone shit, and the only reason anyone likes ANYTHING he does is because he pays for hott beats and usually has a chorus that is catchy as fuck- one I'm sure he prob. doesn't even right..



    60. 60

      I also think it's extremely fucking tacky of them to be more concerned with looking like "ballers" and going to this sort of extreme for the public to observe when the economy is going through such a hard time right now and everyone is feeling it.. No he doesn't owe anyone anything but the fact that this guy would prob. be a nobody with nothing if WE didn't support him as an artist and he isn't thoughtful enough to take into consideration what an arrogant asshole it makes him look to be throwing money around like that now.. It doesn't make him look amazing, doesn't make him look "gangsta"- it makes him look fucking ignorant and unappreciative, with that kind of money they should be thankful and greatful they were as blessed as they were to find a fanbase to support that shit and their new found lifestyle, instead they are throwing $100 into fucking ice sculptures and giving eachother a suitcase with a million dollars in it because it makes them look extremley fucking cool yo lmao



    61. 61

      BIG WUP- no class, low life, crack heads with a couple of bucks, and they have to flaunt it like they're better than everyone else !!!! Spanish saying " dress a monkey in silk, but they're still a monkey"– no racial slur intended. really look it up - google it.



    62. 62

      Obscene trash, that's what those people are.



    63. 63

      actualy lil wayne calls birdman his adopted father not the other way around



    64. 64

      Re: jerseygirl1
      aunque el mono se viste en seda, mono se queda =) lol yeah i heard it before, but these fools will think its racial



    65. 65

      and also lil wayne and birdman have so much money because they are always making albums they work everyday on there songs. lil wayne was rapping when he was 13. He obviously knows what the fuck hes doing, to still be doing so dam good a decade n half later. Do your research next time you want to talk shit…



    66. 66

      Hmmmm…economy's in the toilet, a lot of Americans can't afford healthcare, and these two no-talent jerkoffs are doing this. Those guys suck.



    67. 67

      THAT KIND OF MONEY ANYMORE BECAUSE OF ILLEGAL DOWNLOADING. THAT MONEY WAS BORROWED AND THEN RETURNED AFTER THE PHOTOS WERE TAKING. NICE TRY MORONS. VERY FEW PEOPLE GET TO BE OPRAH, AND RAPPERS YEARS AGO MADE MILLIONS AND MILLIONS BUT THEY DON'T TODAY
      CANADA ROCKS BITCHES.



    68. 68

      fuck these lowlife fucks



    69. 69

      Stayed around waiting for the ice sculpture to melt? Are you kidding me? I would have brought a blow torch, hijacked it and ran straight to the ladies room.



    70. 70

      Birdman's big COCK is what he got LATER and we all know that. We have all seen the holding hands, kissing on the lips picture. And forgive me—but it's very "rapperish" to have money EVERYHWERE like that. Can you imagine Brad Pitt having a party like that? I'll bet not.



    71. 71

      ”stayed around for the ice sculptures to melt” i swear thats what i was thinking the whole time….



    72. 72

      OH you didnt know? It's been long rumored in the hiphop community that Birdman and Lil Wayne are on the dl. Kissing each other full on the lips and calling him your adopted father does NOT make it okay Wayne. No matter how many ways you spin it, it's still suspect.



    73. 73

      Um…don't be confused. They are "hood rich". They have money for the moment. Yet they're spending it all up. Their children and children's children will be broke if they don't go broke first. You don't see Warren Buffet and Bill Gates buying stupid superfluous things like this. THOSE are the people who will never be affected by the economy.



    74. 74

      And yes tis true…the music biz is in the tanker. NO real money is in that.



    75. 75

      IT'S NOT MY TASTE BUT I WOULD HAVE LOVED A GIFT BAG OR SOMETHING!!!! LOL. SOME OF YAL ON HERE ARE BIG TIME JEALOUS!!!!! WHY BE MAD AT THEM AND WISH THEM FAILURE BECAUSE THEY ARE DIFFERENT??/ HUH HUH. WHERE IS THAT REALLY COMING FROM…JEALOUSY…LE IT GO AND WORK ON YOUR OWN STUFF.



    76. 76

      Gaudy, trashy, tacky, ridiculous, ill-mannered, pompous, ignorant, ill-bred, inbred, overrated, non-talented, completely lacking in taste, overly-inked, badly dressed, grotesque…..yes, there are more words to describe these morons but I didn't want to waste any more time typing them.



    77. 77

      Dumb A**es!



    78. 78

      What a bunch of pathetic motherfuckers! Why don't you build a playground for some inner city kids, or start a shelter with that money? I actually know a chick who works for the IRS and does audits, I'm printing out this article for her, seriously.
