Lil Wayne and Chris Brown allegedly misused pandemic relief aid on lavish parties, private jets, designer clothes and even “mystery women.”
According to a new report from Business Insider, the pair are among a number of celebrities who received payouts from the Shuttered Venue Operations Grant, a government initiative designed to support independent venues and arts organizations facing challenges during the pandemic.
Lil Wayne reportedly received a whopping $8.9 million from the little-known pandemic relief program, which helped finance his lavish lifestyle for two years.
Like Lil Wayne, Chris Brown also applied to the fund, receiving a $10 million grant.
He paid himself more than half of the money and billed taxpayers another $80,000 for his 33rd birthday party. Among the expenses for the bash was $2,100 for nude models in body paint.
