Bow Wow gets dragged by the internet for lying about his lavish lifestyle

The internet will always find out.

It's one of the basic rules of the internet -- don't lie because you will inevitably be called out, especially if you're a public figure.

Bow Wow seemed to have forgotten his internet handbook when he posted this picture of luxury cars and a private jet to his social media feeds.

The image would suggest that the rapper was traveling by private jet for his Growing Up Hip Hop press tour, which makes this Twitter user's tweet so embarrassing.

Al_Khee shared a picture of Bow Wow on his Twitter with the message, "So this guy lil bow wow is on my flight to NY. But on instagram he posted a picture of a private jet captioned "traveling to NY today" smh."

The tweet opened up an internet investigation.

Twitter users tracked down the picture Bow Wow used for the posts that he's probably now regretting.

The rapper has kept quiet about his social media blunder, but the evidence is highly suspicious.

Twitter had an absolute field day dragging the rapper for his alleged lie.

We get that the rapper might feel pressure to project a certain image, but there's no shame living among the normals, Bow Wow.
