Lil Jon Has Miley's Number, Literally
April 16 2009, Published 9:46 a.m. ET
Sometimes truth really is stranger than fiction.
Superstar rapper with dreadlocks, grills and a catalogue of lewd and lascivious material gets a new phone number -- that of a teen queen whose target audience has a bedtime.
Sure enough, the far-fetched scenario is a reality, as rapper Lil Jon Wednesday said he was in shock after realizing his new phone number used to belong to Hannah Montana star Miley Cyrus.
“HOW COME I JUS GOT A NEW PHONE NUMBER AND ITS F***** MILEY CIRUS OLD NUMBER!!!” Lil Jon wrote last week on his Twitter page. “STOP CALLIN ME LIL DAMN GIRLS!!!! TRUE STORY!! NO BS!!”
The rapper -- whose first album in five years, Crunk Rock, hits stores this summer -- elaborated on the mishap in detail this week.
“I was basically in shock, like how did that happen?!” he said in a statement to Access Hollywood. “Especially when I get texts like ‘CONGRATULATIONS ON TEEN VOGUE!’”
Lil Jon said he was not especially upset about the cute, albeit pesky, coincidence.
“Yeah, I like Miley! My son likes her show!” he said. “I’ll probably run into her at some award show.” (Photo: WENN)
