Flo Rida Busted for DUI in $1.7 Million Ride

By Kiki Von Glinow Posted Jun 9th 2011 10:25AM

Flo Rida, born Tramar Dillard, couldn't keep his drinking on the down 'Low' and was pulled over by Miami police early this morning before being arrested for suspicion of DUI, according to TMZ. But we have a feeling that Flo Rida won't have any problem posting his bail -- the rapper was cruising in a $1.7 million whip, a black Bugatti, at the time of his arrest.

The 'Low' singer was pulled over after officers saw him swerving in his lane at 3:30 AM -- a little too early for a routine morning coffee run. After the cops smelled alcohol on the rapper, he was given a field sobriety test which confirmed police suspicion that he had thrown one too many back. His calculated blood alcohol level was more than twice the legal limit.

How about a joy ride without the booze next time, Flo.

You mean normal name like Jason Lee's son, Inspektor Pilot? Or Demi and Bruce's children, Tallulah, Scout, and Rumer? Or Penn Jillete's daughter, Moxie Crimefighter? Yeah it's "just those black folks" who give their children stupid names....

One of the best name changes, and it made him millions, was the genius who changed Eldrick Woods to Tiger Woods

By He's out there!

Hmmmm...let's ask Lady GaGa! Oh, she's a white celebrity with a weird name! Duh dude! They are simply using stage names that set the apart make them memorable. There are many non-Black celebrities (singers, actors, wrestlers, etc)that do the same thing. No big deal and definitely not just a Black thing either!

Usually it's because they can't spell the rediculous name that their momma gave them.

By Bryan

It's their way of pretending they are gangstas from da hood, when they are really just wussies.

By yvette

What an idiot...he can afford a car that expensive but can't afford a taxi ride or a limo. Just another dumb celebrity on the way to self destruction. I just hope he doesn't hurt anyone innocent...I am sure he will do it again.

Flo Rida is a dumb name... it sounds like a bad name for a maxi pad.

The FLO RIDA is he recognition of Florida , where he came from. The 305.

By npinkflipflops

KTBeliebs! ;~)....dude, or whatever. Please, please PLEASE refrain from calling somebody else stupid and then proceed with whatEVER that was you posted on here. When you're ignorant, and you try to call somebody else stupid...well, it just loses it's effect.

KTBeliebs! ;~) you are the one who is stupid..we never said we didn't know where he got his name. Besides who are you calling stupid where did you learn to spell. I grew up in Florida and was taught to spell in school. Great praise for a drunk driver , you wouldn't be saying that if he killed one of your loved ones with his stupidity.

By hello kitty

He was probably depressant because he has to live in a cheap motel because he spent everything on his car.

By Sherwood

Probably has a bunch of kids out there too that he's not supporting.

By RJ

...hey TMZ, couldn't you have posted a picture of the ride or one like it??? I mean that's the interesting part of the article not another celeb getting a DUI!

By bob

This is the problem with America: rappers and basketball players making MILLIONS and researchers working in labs trying find a cure for AIDS and CANCER making sixty thousand(MAYBE) a year!! We have lost our priorities!!

By CC

You blame the entertainers and basketball players, blame the consumers. Its in demand. I personally would never buy his music--but someone is, parents have to teach the value of money and not support this, I'm sure most responsible adults aren't buying his music for themselves--they have bills to pay. And often there has to be some form of outlet for hardworking folks, thus enter sports--and again, the consumers decide how much the players make by how much they will pay to go to a game...fix the minds of men that waste money, and we can then apply money to the real issues.
