Celebrity Nerds confirms what you always knew, deep in your heart of hearts: that stars are nerds like us. Send in your own confirmations of this fact right here.
Now, we don't have photographic evidence of this one, so Wayne, if you happen to be a reader, feel free to snap a pic of yourself with the console. Either way, we have enough proof to proudly classify Lil' Wayne a... you know, nerd.
GTR has published a video of the New Orleans-born rapper having a conversation with KRS-One during which he says he's got an "Xbox that has every game from A-Z, Atari, Nintendo, pong, movies & even
porn." Whoa. Where can we get one of those? Wayne
claims that the Xbox was a gift... but we bet he
hacked it himself. Video is embedded after the break.

Got a modded Xbox and you know it
Make a GTR vid where you talk about it
Then throw it like
This a way, that a way
This a way, that a way
Engadget makes a post for everybody to see then
Deemed a nerd and tossed over the wall of the VIP like
This a way, that a way
This a way, that a way
You hit the nail on the head.
It's as the saying goes "You can pay for school.. but you can't buy class.."
look between his eyebrows. i swear thats a crude rendering of some male genitals pointing to the right.
Yeah, and I'm the king of england! HAH.
Featured?
Really?
I Bet he has an X-Box 360 Karaoke Game...
Will Nintendo be filling a lawsuit against him? He's certainly got more money than your average gamer geek.
Sorry, what?
Couldn't understand a word coming from his mouth in that video!
This is the stupidest engadget story i've ever seen.
Oh, I doubt that.

lol, go laura
tou che
Lil Wayne didn't mod his own Xbox, he states that someone gave him an Xbox that has everything. So how would this classify him as a "Nerd"...?
The title of the article was misspelled. This was actually supposed to be files under "Celebrity Nads."
So he steals video games?
how the hell can you pay to listen to this......how sounds like how i'd speak if im forced to talk while brushing my teeth..... after a night of binge drinking.....and with a serious case of laryngitis.
*He sounds like.......
And rappers aren't known for hyperbole, so you know it's true.
wow he needs to learn to speak english. do rappers think english is just a waste of time or something
They think education is a waste of time. They get "mo' monies" from slapping their bitches and selling crack coke to the poor souls on the street. Rapping just nets them respect yo.
(Not my respect though. Can't respect the fool, nor someone that steals.)
lol because you two speak great english..
@ cory:
Maybe you should learn to do research into why many ppl dont particularly care for the english language, and why historically, its deliberate perversion was/is a form of resistance.
@ Justin:
Your generalizations are making an ass out of you. Are you even vaguely familiar w/ the topic? Rappers for the most part have always pointed out the socioeconomic ramifications of a lack of education or limited access to it. Party, women, materialism... seem to be the order of the day, but on the one or two serious tracks on any album, the unmistakable messages are ever present. Rap has changed much, but social and political commentary - especially as they affect the above - remain an inextricable part.
Re your precious english: didnt Charles himself remind Americans that not even they were very familiar w/ the language?
BTW, this is not really about Lil Wayne or rappers, is it? ;)
@Cory
It's not that Lil Wayne though that learning English was a waste of time, its that he was too busy practicing French!

I bet his xbox pours his codeine for him too..
@Fernando,
Lil Wayne is smart, he had straight A's when he was in school.
and hes in college at the moment getting A's
woah. people believe what wayne says in 2009?
Wow, his xbox plays porn? That's CRAZY! It must have been modded to play DVDs or video files. NO other xbox does that!
Lil' Wayne needs a modded brain
you're all at work, he's playing video games, or partying, or flying a helicopter, or doing anything he wants
I'll take that life
Well this boosts his "street cred" in my book.
He aint look like no nerd. A nerd is a nerd btw he looks and not how much of an artist he is.
I've been to the should I say inner, inner city twice for I thought were legit purposes; one guy thought I was an employee of Microsoft saying "do you work for Microsoft" after I saw it was hacked. He didn't tell me that on Craigslist, neither did I buy it from him. He just wanted to get rid of it.
The other time a guy was paranoid giving me a different address and then saying to meet on a street "...". I was looking for a unlocked Iphone that could be used on other networks (like boss prefs on the old iphones) but what I saw was a whole mod of games and such.
All three aint nerds, they have intelligence in many things but that doesn't make them nerds. I would never hack an Xbox; Lil' Wayne didn't have the money at the time. But that's still NG.
Damn..thats tha boy Weezy poppin up everywhere..eveeenn on Engadget..
Are you guys guna cover Soul Ja boy too? hes big on xbox
how does him having a xbox with porn and every game on the market classify as him having a moddified one, the dude got money to burn
What up
To all rappers shut up with ya shuttin up
And keep your shirt on, at least a button up
Yuck, is they rhymers or strippin males?
Outta work jerks since they shut down Chippendale's
Sorry, I'm anti-wayne
xbox has nintendo. i lol'ed literally.
Is there a little "cock" tattoo in between his glabella underneath the cross?
Basically everyone here is narked off because they refuse to believe anything outside their preference of music, is actually music. And as the 3rd post down said, only english speaking people/people who talk properly can actually mod things.
Y'know, because speaking is the main principle of modding an xbox.
@(Unverified)
"Y'know, because speaking is the main principle of modding an xbox."
hell yeah im guessing a guy like me with 5 words in his vocabulary has no chance of modding a xbox or building computers or hacking the piss out of ipods
ps: English is my second langue,
did he mention 360 or is it the old one
did anyone not just think wayne is super rich and he has all those games because he bought them?
To all the people who come on here to say that Wayne sucks, i would just love to see you guys compare car collections, and im not talking about model cars. this guy makes more money in a month than some of u make in a lifetime and then you guys call him a loser. WOW
