(*Apologies Hip Hop Fans, but I gotta post this foolishness. 1. It’s relevant to my Hot97 Celebrity Drama audience. 2. I find it amusing even though I don’t enjoy teenybopper music. And 3. I like to diversify, lol. Eh, not really. )

So, we’ve all seen this video where BowWow barks at Toure from BET and storms out of an interview (even threatening to pummel Toure with a bodyguard). And I actually sympathized with the pup’s reaction, given the obnoxious line of questioning. Like, “Omarion, you were great in the “Naked” video” [which was actually Marques Houston's video] and “Bow wow, how much did your chain cost? Its smaller than Lil Wayne’s.”

But, of course….there’s a backstory. According to my inside sources, this whole segment was actually taped during the summer for BET’s Black Carpet show (No diss to the hardworking and talented people who work behind the scenes there). Toure was attempting to “punk” BowWow and Omarion, in what was supposed to be a “hell” interview (like hell date…groan). The duo didn’t get the joke, but maybe because the questions were more mean than funny. Ali G’s prank interviews work because they confuse the subjects with bizarre questions that let them make fools of themselves. If you attack the subject, their defense goes up, and the funny is lost.

Anyways, because Bow wow got so pissed off, the episode never aired. But afterward Toure apologized to the artists and explained the prank. And more recently, I hear that Bow Wow approached Toure and apologized for his terrible T.I.-impersonation, lol…..So its all kumbayya.

But, my sources say BowWow and Co are the ones who allegedly leaked this video to the web, as well as another one, to help the buzz on that Face Off album, and the upcoming Bow Wow Omarion Xmas special.

This second video is even more flattering, right?….absolutely completely not.

Team BowWow, this video is not a good look.
