Wiz Khalifa indicted in Romania after smoking joint onstage
Wiz Khalifa has been indicted by Romanian authorities after he smoked cannabis onstage.
The 37-year-old rapper — whose real name is Cameron Thomaz — was arrested and charged with illegal drug possession in July after smoking marijuana onstage at the Beach, Please! festival in Costinești.
In a new update from the country’s anti-organized crime prosecutors organization DIICOT, they have confirmed an investigation has been completed and his indictment has been sent “to court for trial.”
A press release from the organization Monday said the “No Sleep” hitmaker was indicted on Oct. 15 for “committing the crime of possession of dangerous drugs, without the right, with a view to consumption [of his] own.”
It stated Khalifa was found with 18.53 grams of cannabis on him, as well as a cannabis cigarette, and his case was submitted to the Constanța Court.
After being arrested and released from custody, the “Black and Yellow” hitmaker — who has 11-year-old son Sebastian with ex-wife Amber Rose and 3-month-old daughter Kaydence with girlfriend Aimee Aguilar — apologized for smoking onstage and insisted he didn’t mean any “disrespect.”
He wrote on X: “Last nights [sic] show was amazing. I didn’t mean any disrespect to the country of Romania by lighting up on stage. They were very respectful and let me go. I’ll be back soon. But without a big ass joint next time.”
Khalifa recently admitted Sebastian’s teachers “expect” him to attend meetings at school while stoned and is “pretty sure” his boy “smells” of the drug.
Asked if he ever goes to parent-teacher conferences while high, Khalifa told Alex Cooper on the “Call Her Daddy” podcast: “Hell yeah. I’m pulling up stoned. They expect it.
“They know what’s up. It’s not like back in the day [where] you’re considered a bad parent if you smoke weed. I’m pretty sure my son smells like weed.
“I don’t know because I can’t smell it, but I’m pretty sure he smells like pot.
“And yeah, I’m pulling up stoned, I’m pulling up high because I want them to connect with the real me. They’re not going to get a fake version of me or this made-up parent that society makes you think that you’re supposed to be.”
