I say that in the most respectful way. Bow Wow went to bat for his man Omarion during an interview with Toure that quickly spiraled out of control. I was ready to rake Bow Wow over the coals when I heard about this video but I changed my mind after watching the vid for myself.
Clearly Toure was being a facetious assh*le! He was never serious about interviewing Bow Wow or Omarion. I was dismayed at Toure’s lack of professionalism. He deliberately confused the guys for other artists, he told Bow Wow that his chain was smaller than Lil’ Wayne’s. Toure sat there yawning during the interview then demanded to know why Bow Wow was using his phone during the interview.
Finally Bow Wow had enough and snapped on Toure. I’m not the biggest Bow Wow fan, but he stood up for his mans and that was an honorable thing to do. It takes a lot to get Big D (Bow Wow’s bodyguard) angry and I’m glad he kept his cool. I see you Big D!!

I see he went from studying Wayne to studying T.I.
This has got to be some sort of reality TV show footage.
I can’t watch the video at work, but based on what Sandra said it sounds like Toure lost his cotton pickin mind for a second. Wendy Williams isn’t even that diserespectful to guests. Too bad Bow Wow didn’t punch him in the eye.
this must be a tv skit..toure has NEVER been so crude to any artist during an interview..im mad that bow wow got real angry OUTSIDE the interview room, however, i applaud bow wow for saying something while omarion was DEAD silent..bow wow is all bark
I actually watched the show and they later mentioned that it was a spoof. But Bow Wow was still upset that he was not warned. I thought that he was particularly hotheaded and it seemed to be a bit of a front especially considering that he’s like 5′4″.
I saw the whole show on Friday nite on BET and Toure apologized because the whole thing was a spoof interview. And when it was all said and done Bow Wow looked dumb for going off. Anybody that watched Black Carpet knows that is not even in Toure’s demeanor at all. But it was all a set-up interview to get a reaction out of them. Omarion was telling Bow Wow it is a time and place to react and that he was not going to trip off this dude. So Bow Wow looked like a fool when it was all said and done.
Is it just me or does Bow Wow now try to act like T.I???
I applaud him for handling it, Toure was outta line…
What are they…lovers now?
This seemed fake to me until bow starting snapping! I guess it could still be a skit like brina said.
@ MZN…….i just said the same thing earlier….they was all giving each other the “googly” eyes on 106 & Park!
Bow Wow’s reaction confirms even more that he has a problem with Chris Brown. He tore up that dressing room on that tour behind jealousy of Chris Brown.
This video was funny ass hell. Thye thought that this was a real interview and you could tell that he sideswiped O with that Chris Brown comment. I applaud O for not slapping the **** outta him for being disrepectful. Bow Wow did remind me of T.I. but he is a little guy also…I guess it is a Napoleon Complex!!!
*They
Well T.I. wrote a lot of Bow Wow’s stuff.
I thought Bow Wow acted completely appropriate for someone who was not in on the joke. I guess this was Punk’d gone wrong. Omarion needs to man up though. Well.. Yeah.
LOL because Omarion had to scoot up to fit on the couch then he scooted back down because he feet wouldn’t touch the floor!
LOL againg @ Bow-Wow leaving then saying he (Toure’) could come out here and see about it too–not, “he can come out here and see about me”. When he got out of the room with Toure’, he said he can come out and talk to Big D and Big Loc. LOL!
Well…I must say…..That was the gayest ish I have ever seen. If “little” bow wow don’t get his T.I. clone a$$ out of here. That nicca couldn’t buss a damn grape. He’s a goofy. Shouts out to TIP, somebody trying to steal ya swagger.
Bow Wow don’t have a problem with Chris Brown that’s retarded just like the person that started the rumor. IT don’t matter who wrote his stuff when he was a child, it’s about whose writing his music right now…HIM! How can you be mad if you went to a interview and was treated like that and you didn’t know it was a spoof interview you wouldn’t be happy either and some of ya’ll can’t say that ya’ll wouldn’t have spazzed out. Some people do, some people don’t. Oh well.
I don’t know why people say that Bow Wow tries to immitate T.I. Bow Wow is what 19? 20? He is still learning who HE is, and in doing so his persona will change/evolve as he grows as a man.
Both Bow Wow and T.I. are short men, so they probably have the same short man complex.
Smokie, did you hear and see how he just flew into a southern accent?
Was that a hot dog Big D was eating or a hamburger???
I agree with Sunflower & Sandra Rose. Toure’ deserved everything Bow Wow said to him. He was being so disrespectful. If it were meant to be a spoof, that should have been made apparent. It was clear the (I’m assuming) producer [the asian chick] had no idea what was going on because he was explaining himself to her. If it were a spoof, don’t you think the staff would have been in on it. Furthermore, what does his height have to do with anything??? He can’t be pissed because he’s short?! Get real people.
Ok, I finally got to see the video and I still ain’t mad at Bow Wow. He obviously didn’t know it was a joke and reacted to the blatant disrepect. What was next short jokes? The lil southern roughneck accent was a bit much, but I guess that is what he thought sounded the toughest.
Towards the end of the video, you can hear Toure say it was a joke. Based on Toure’s past interviews, he is very professional, so I knew it was a joke from the beginning of the interview. Bow Wow on the other hand, was very unprofessional. How did he start popping off at the mouth then tell his body guards to handle it. Hilarious!

He proved what? Dude, your name is Bow Wow. He needs to sit down somewhere. Too many tirades lately, the boy needs a nap and some warm milk. *sigh*
I don’t know why you all are so suprised that he acts like T.I.
I mean T.I is his ghost writer.
I can see why Bow Wow reacted that way, but you also have to realize that he’s only 20. Men that age ALWAYS have something to prove.
PS. Every male with a “gangsta” complex act that way, or believe they should anyway.
Bow Wow please calm your little ass down…you’re not built like that!
If you notice that little ni**a was talking and WALKING til he got outside and saw Big D!! Then ALL tuffness came out! LOL
Why was Omarion giggling like a straight **** and did Bow Wow grab Omarion’s hand as they were leaving?!
This video was edited, you can see when it skips… It was funny when Big D was like “take the camera off me” lol…
Why that Chineese woman seem like she set the whole thing up?
Toure probaly would’ve whipped Bow Wow lil ass!!
Wow let me find out!!! I did hear a lil bit of TI in some of the things he said, however u had to know that Toure was playin but of course Bow Wow was not having it. It was almost a turn on to see him act so hard, the funny part is how he said c’mon O let’s go he not about to play u like that & his ass got right up & walked out the room behind him!! OK we know who wears the pants!! (lol) jus playin although if they thought Toure was serious Omarion should have stood up for himself & said something!!
I WATCHED THE SHOW. TOURE WAS OUT OF LINE, BUT BOW WOW’S REACTION MADE HIMSELF LOOK LIKE A FOOL. HE SAT THERE TAKING TOURE’S SH** FOR AT LEAST FIVE MINUTES. THEN FLIPS OUT. FIRST, HE JUMPS UP LIKE HE’S ABOUT TO WHOOP TOURE ASS. TOURE IS LOOKING AT HIM WITH NO EMOTION. BOW WOW WALKS AWAY FROM TOURE. STOPS WITH HIS BACK TURNED AWAY FROM TOURE THEN START TALKING SH** AND CUSSING. THEN CALMS DOWN WALKS OUT THE ROOM AND STARTED YELLING. “COME OUT HERE AND SAY THAT. BIG D HANDLE THAT.” TOURE COMES OUT THE ROOM CALM. BOW WOW BEHIND THREE DUDES ALL TALLER THAN HIM TALKING SH**. TOURE WAS SO CALM, WHICH MADE IT LOOK LIKE BOW WOW WAS THROWING A DAMN TEMPER-TANTRUM.
OMARION HANDLE THE SITUATION LIKE A MAN. EVERYONE WAS CALM EXCEPT BOW WOW. HE’S ALL BARK….CHIHUAHUA.
