According to TMZ.com, the corporate arm of AXE body spray products is considering dropping rapper T.I. as a spokesman.
Although T.I.’s image still graces the company’s website, TMZ reports that AXE is not happy with the news of T.I.’s arrest for possession of the controlled substance ecstasy.
A rep for AXE tells TMZ they’re “troubled by [T.I.’s] arrest” and have been forced into “reviewing our promotional activities” with the rapper. Translation — it doesn’t look good for T.I.
T.I. — real name Clifford Harris — locked down a deal with AXE earlier this year after promising the company that he was “working to become a more positive role model.”
T.I. will be alright. Everyone makes mistakes. The road to redemption is littered with the souls of those who never made it. It is a tough road to walk. At least he wasn’t arrested for domestic abuse.
