: T-Pain loves to sing about spending money. And it appears to MediaTakeOut.com that he's doing so in real life. In an interview with King Magazine, the R&B singer admitted to purchasing his own private jet. Here's some highlights from the interview:
KING: Was the private jet really necessary? T-PAIN: I upgraded! It's a G4 I had wrapped. I ain't pay the whole $5 Mil. I bought it used from a company that sells planes.But the best part, the magazine claims that the cost of maintaining T-Pain's jet (fuel, pilots, insurance and repairs) is a whopping $1M a year. And that doesn't tips to the ... err ... stewardesses ...KING: What perks come with your plane? T-PAIN: Man, we got 14 seats, a couch, a CD player with speakers under the seats and a color TV. You can f*ck with the smoke detectors and smoke on that b*tch, drink till you throw up, f*ck in the bathroom - it's ridiculous. I'll call up Exotic Flights and get a stewardess. And the best thing about it - they can't wear drawers ... They kinda like strippers. A lot of them don't speak English. It's very convenient.
Why in the world would he by a plane? Artists, mainly Black one's, spend their money on depreciable goods all the time...Rims..Cars.jewelry people are just plotting to steal...I mean wake up Brothers and sisters. think about the future.he'll have to pay for maintenance regardless if he uses it or not...I love his music..can't take nothing away..but you have to think about rainy days too...how many more bartenders and strippers can we stand him singing about before we get sick of him...i'm sure that day will come..stop Being a Jack ass
Isn't this DUMB? You bought a private jet for $3M, u spend $1M a year for fuel....that means that for each year you have that Jet, you loose $1M. In 10 years (God help you that much) , you would have lost 7M on Fuel and don't have anything else yielding you income , no investments, no nothing ?????????? T-PAIN, with all due respect, YOU ARE A BIG FOOL!! You illiterates need to brush up your intelligence. You have all the money to pay your way through the best business school in the world... consider that at this early age or else you will be lucky if you have a Luxury car of your own in 5yrs.
Lying azz, black bastard! He's caked up BUT not to the point of OWNING a LearJet. He does fractional-ownership of a corporate Jet flight provider(like high-profile celebrity and business people do) but they NEVER BUY the plane(kinda like a timeshare) and they do split the maintenance fees among the owners. I know 'cause I've done the same thing for a boat/yacht program I was in until I bought my own boat. I guess lying does get you in the news, huh?
well, hes gassed because hes on just about every record right now with every famous artist, so he feels like he has to upgrade his lifestyle and live large..this is a little excessive but hes young and doesnt seem like he has much sense right now..hes caught up in the hype..lets hope he doesnt fall into the MC Hammer trap..Hammer had the gold toilet seats and all that, now look at him..Pain better keep writing, producing and recording like a mutha f*cker because to maintain this lavish lifestyle is gonna keep costing him..he also better do like Keyshia Cole and have a portfolio and an accountant
Hardcore, if he paid 3M, he prolly owns the damn thing. Especially if he bought it used. I hope he doesn't tour with a lot of equipment or a large crew. He seems to have limited space available on the plane with all them stewardesses taking up all the room. At least they pack light (the stewardesses that is :>).
He better watch it! T-Pain isn't as good as he thinks he is; you can't sing hooks forever and think you are going to be around in 10 years!
He is going to regret this [EXPLETIVE]! And the comment about the pantyless stewardesses; that's just trifling!! They are f***ing these foreign bitches and no tellin what everyone got! No wonder AIDS and STD's are all over the place!!
the Black race can't afford you no more. There used to be a time, we'd see someone like you singin', clownin', yassuh-bossin'... and we wouldn't do anything. Folks liked that. You were good. Homey kind of [EXPLETIVE]. When they needed somebody to mistreat, call a name or two, they paraded you.Reminded them of the good old days. Not no more. The day of the Geechee is gone, boy. And you're going with it.
QUOTED FROM A SOILDER'S STORY
half the people on this website probably helped pay for it.. damn dummies.
That's why I don't buy their music. Just a bunch of dummies i can not afford to support.
Black artist are a joke, for real and they are only getting worst. Concerts being cancelled and fight. They are so weak and unprofessional. Not just rap but R&B as well. Black music and the artist are a bunch of bull these days.
YOU HAVE TO BE A COMPLETE MORON AND IDIOT TO BELIEVE THIS CRAP.. THIS GUY IS A COMPLETE IDIOT. IF U MORONS BELIEVES THIS CRAP THEN YOU'RE JUST AS STUPID.. DO YOUR RESEARCH, A GULFSTREAM G4 COSTS $35 MILLION. YOU CAN'T GET A USED ONE FOR LESS THEN $20 MILLION. LOOK IT UP. ONLY WEALTHY ATHLETES, ACTORS, AND CEO'S HAVE THE MONEY TO PURCHASE A G4, NOT A GHETTO AZZ N I G G E R FROM THE STREETS
A private jet for $3 mill? I think not! And he is married talking about fukking in bathrooms? Ugh he is just like Snoop has a reality show about FAMILY and his WIFE! And checking out women on the show and sh!t! Do you know how that looks to people? And how it makes your wife look? Anyway T-Pain got money with all them songs and touring but this is gotta be false.
Um,if that purchase is made, it's a stupid purchase. Yeah it's his $$$ but he's not on that level financially to make that type of purchase. Also I see him as a fad, his voice is computer generated and he always talks about big ass and strippers. I mean I don't think that equals longetivity. Now if he was on Jay or Bill Gates Level, he can buy planes. Also I believe he's married and he's talking about [EXPLETIVE] some foreign whores? That's disrepectful and classless. You can already tell he get caught up in the hype of what we cally Hollywood.
he shouldwait until he releases a few more albums and get a personal stock broker or talk to a financial advisor before doing something that takes 1million a year to maintain. you can charter a personal plane from so many places and still be chilling. i think the point is being able to smoke weed and impress hookers you have to pay for. invest in property buy an apartment building and make it into luxury apartemnt stupid. god i wish i had some money.
his voice is computer generated ......his voice is computer generated ......his voice is computer generated ......his voice is computer generated ......his voice is computer generated ......his voice is computer generated ......his voice is computer generated ......his voice is computer generated ......his voice is computer generated ......stupid is as stupid does.....want some chocolates?
FOR EVERYBODY THAT GOT SOMETHING TO SAY ABOUT T-PAIN AND THE WAY HE SPENDS HIS MONEY---MIND YOUR OWN FREAKIN BUSINESS BECAUSE IF YOU IGNORANT SONS OF BEECHES KNEW ANYTHING YOU WOULD KNOW THAT IN JULY HE HELD HIS FIRST HOMETOWN CONCERT FOR US TALLAHASSEEANS AND DONATED ALL PROCEEDS...DID U HEAR ME...A-L-L PROCEEDS TO ONE OF OUR LOCAL COMMUNITY CENTERS FOR AFTERSCHOOL CHILDREN...ITS CALLED WALKER FORD COMMUNITY CENTER...LOOK IT UP IF U WANNA BECOME A LITTLE SMARTER THAN YOU ARE...WE ARE PROUD OF T-PAIN...HE'S DEFINATELY OUR TALLAHASSEE HERO!
