Rapper-actor T.I. has been ordered to appear before a judge following his arrest on drug charges while on probation on a federal weapons charge, but it looks like he has not lost his sense of humor.
A tipster spotted the entertainer, also known as Clifford Harris Jr., and his new wife Tameka “Tiny” Cottle at the Uptown Comedy Corner Tuesday night. They caught comedian D. L. Hughley’s 10 p.m. show.
Were you there?
Hughley apparently spotted his famous audience members quickly and cracked a few jokes about T.I.’s legal woes. Ouch!
But T.I. apparently took the ribbing in stride since he and Tiny stuck around for the entire show.
Afterward they chatted with a few fans before taking off, our source says.
The U.S. Attorney handling T.I.’s case isn’t amused, though. A date has not been set for his appearance before the court but it doesn’t seem like it will be any sort of laughing matter.
“We are very disappointed in Mr. Harris’ recent conduct,” U.S. Attorney Sally Yates said in a recent statement. “We will make our sentencing recommendation at the revocation hearing.”

Hope T.I. Makes it through with no problems. The police seem to be the issue I’m sure and illegal search was done. Hmm that 400,000$ car smells of marijuana search it but guess what no maryjane????????? Sounds like a totally bogus reason to search the car if there is no pot

T.I. must stand for Total Idiot. This guy in high school was suspected of murdering a kid and somehow walked away from what is still an open case. Thug for life. He’ll blend in well while living in prison, his home away from home.

I hope TI goes away to prison for a very LOOOOONNNNNNNGGGGG Time. He needs prison. Infact he is so stupid he must want. Well guess what Total Jackass…I hope you serve everyday.
When TI, The Idiot, was at those schools speaking of changed ways and God etc I knew it was just smoke, mirrors an doo doo. HA HA HA.
Toss his as in jail where he belongs.

Cops stop car that they probably followed from the moment he stepped off the plane – searched it based on a smell- didn’t find anything but pills they probably planted. But hey to plant pills in TI’s car considering he just got out of prison – wouldn’t it be great to have him locked back up on my watch – wtfe – hey what was the reason they stopped him in the first place?? No idea huh… Yeah well whatever! I hope he walks away from this cause it is some pure fowl BS!

Whatdoiknow you say you don’t care about this thug but you take the time to comment on it. Hopefully you will never have legal issues or have a child with legal issues then only will you realize he is human like everyone else. P.S. If you don’t like something you usually don’t entertain it.

Well I guess the same legal system that served with Linsey Lohan, Paris Hilton , Richole Ritchie, the Baldwins Snoop has to work for T.I and Tiny. It is called the Justice System For The Rich And Famous.

Looks like Dumbass and Ms.Piggy is in the news again. People come to your senses. He was pulled over because he made an illegal U-Turn! They didn’t find weed, but they found Ecstacy! Planted them on him? They must have planted them in his body, because he failed the drug test!
I hate to see a Black Man to have to be incarcerated, especially for something that he didn’t do. But T.his I.diot has been given more than enough chances to straighten out his life. The snitch!

you all that come to the entertainment section and ask who cares about this are just about as dumb as TI and his wife actions. “If you don’t like it, don’t buy it…” to quote Allen Iverson.

I am very upset that my tax dollars are going to be used to try to prosecute T.I over something as frivilous as Exstasy. We should legalize and control certain drugs, it would save lives here and abroad and money! Many of you already take legal drugs, but demonize other drugs that are less harmful.

@Professional Latino. I agree that some drugs should be legal, while others that are legal should be banned. But, the point is, is that T.I. is a convicted felon on probation. It was illegal for him to take and have these drugs in his possession.

I laugh at the idiots trying to defend this guy. He was pulled over for an illegal u turn. When the car was searched they found a schedule II narcotic on the fool not in his car. They will send him up the river and he will get what he deserves for probation violation. He’ll be stuntin’ like his grandaddy when he finally gets out of prison. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

@ Big C. You are right he is a convicted felon and should have more restrictions on his freedoms than others. But in general I hate to see my tax dollars going to arrest and incarcerate people for simple and private use.

Such talent gone to waste.
The way he can talk over a sampled beat that’s repeated over and over and over and over and over over and over and over.
And then on the next song there’s a sampled loop that’s repeated over and over and over and over over and over and over and over and over and over.
And that tough acting thing where he crosses his arms across his chest and curls his lip upwards.
Pure genius.

I wish someone could explain why this guy is considered to be a “talent”. He jumps around on stage, with sunglasses on, grabbing his crotch, giving the peace sign, and yelling, while his pants are down around his knees. Is that talent? No, I didn’t think so. A lot of these rappers (they all sound the same) push the envelope over and over again, and finally end up murdered by another thug rapper. Just baffles me.

Let me explain something, I enforce laws everyday. I absolutely love T.I’s music especially being from Atlanta. I’ve had the opportunity to meet him and carry a conversation with him on several occassions. I’ll be the 1st to tell you how disappointed I am in him. And to answer some of the folks questions on here, he was pulled over for making an Illegal U-turn in front of the Police. So in a 400,000 car or a Geo prism he was gonna get pulled over, which was the probable cause for the stop. Well, he roll the window down and fresh burning marijuana hit the officer’s nose, which opens up more questions and a more probable cause to search the car and pat him down. So is it the Officer’s fault that T.I.P had pills in his damn pocket, I don’t think so. Again, disapointed in him and he’s gonna be gone for a while cause them FEDS don’t play……

I guess they play “I’m Back” when he gets to the prison. I was a fan, love his music, I was hoping he had learned a lesson; however, this level of stupidity should be punished. Who makes an illegal u-turn when u know you are ridin dirty. The truth is that dude should already be in prison, the Feds did something for him that they never do, and he turns around a fuggs up. Back to the Pokey Pimp!!

I used to like T.I but I am through with him now. Anybody that dumb to carry drugs after given the chances he had been given, deserve to be locked up. I’ll bet when he gets out this time, there won’t be a lot of fans cheering him on. They will all be adults and into something else. He will be forgotten, because he made the judge look bad, and the judge is going to make him pay for it.

T.I. was not supposed to be doing any drugs or be anywhere near them…period. If he or his partner had been smoking dope in the car before the illegal U-Turn is that the cops fault? No is the simple answer. If your card has been marked, you must follow the rules of your probation, break them and you have to accept the consequences, period. Unless you are Paris Hilton of course.
