Latto Recalls Bringing Loaded Glock 17 To LAX & Getting Locked Up

Latto is no stranger to getting flamed on social media, and while she certainly navigates the hate from internet trolls like a pro, it has to be exhausting being criticized so publicly and regularly. While she's recently faced backlash for working with Dr. Luke on "Lottery," seemingly twisting the truth about her willingness to work with other female artists for free, and wearing the same panties twice, the rap diva is now rightfully being slammed for bringing a loaded weapon to LAX with her. She shared the story on Twitter earlier this weekend, though many were quick to inform her it's not exactly the flex she seems to think.

"Bitches PUSSC ain't taking NUN!!!" the 24-year-old posted on Friday (March 17) afternoon. "I got [locked] up in da airport... GODDAMN forgot da gun," a fan wrote in response, earning Latto's attention. "True story!!!" she responded before further explaining the situation when another follower asked her to give "more insight" into her previous arrest ahead of a work trip. "Went to LAX [with] a loaded Glock 17 in my [Birkin]," her post began.

Latto's LAX Nightmare

Apparently, Latto was locked up but let out after just a few hours. "Booked a $75K jet to my show in Alabama and still made it on time," the Ohio-born rhymer flexed. "No cap in my rap TUH." In another post, she confirmed that the LAX incident was different from another one in Atlanta when a female cop allegedly kept trying to make her "cough hard." She told Twitter, "I was profiled for 'looking like' [some] bitch that robbed a n*gga... I'm not no robber man

. Jail is NOT for me btw

."

Unsurprisingly, haters almost instantly began ridiculing the 777 hitmaker for bragging about something so immature and potentially dangerous. "Why do you walk around w a Glock in your bag? Is that supposed to be cute?" someone asked Latto. "Why in the world would you need a loaded Glock, you are not hood and you have no opps," another user pointed out.

if this was true it would've made headlines + you would be on the no fly list but the only time you're on headlines it's about panties or nicki minaj.
