Mike Epps Tells Fans To Stay Buckled After Arrested With Loaded Firearm At Airport
Although he may face serious legal charges for taking a loaded gun through the airport, Epps has revealed his lack of drama. To that end, he posted a video that began with him giving a “shout-out” and apologizing to his fans for any “negativity” about the gun charge at the airport.
“I had a long night, I had a show in my hometown, and I totally forgot that I had my gun in my bag. Now, if you want to know why I carry a gun…I carry money all the time and wear stuff neat, and these men are here robbing people,” he explained.
After clarifying that he didn’t do anything “wrong,” the stand-up comedian added that he uses a gun to protect himself whenever he moves without his safety. “I’m still in a positive mood, and sorry that it happened. All I can tell you is that the world is crazy; stay connected,” the Gotham Independent Film Award winner concluded.
After Epps’ fans finished watching the Instagram video, they took to the comments to show their solidarity with him. While several people told her she didn’t need to explain herself to anyone, one fan wrote, “Better stuck with one, then [sic] without one.”
Singer El DeBarge commented, “My brother bless you and yours. You are a great inspiration to us all. Thank you for bringing Joy into this world Please keep us laughing, we need it Mike.” One fan praised the “Meet the Blacks” star for “always being honest,” and expressed joy that she is doing well.
In the midst of chaos, TMZ reported that the Indianapolis native was found with a .38-caliber Smith & Wesson in one of his bags in the aisle of a TSA checkpoint over the weekend. Although the firearm had four unloaded rounds in the chamber, all items were collected as evidence.
Airport officials confirmed to the news outlet that a report of the incident has been forwarded to the Marion County Prosecutor’s Office to determine whether charges should be filed against Epps, who was not arrested at the scene.

When the “Welcome Home Roscoe Jenkins” actor walked down the aisle in 2019, his celebrity friends showed up for him in great style. According to The Blast, one star was Snoop Dogg, who would rather skip that year’s BET Awards than miss his friend’s wedding.
The “Drop It Like It’s Hot” rapper went to the beachside event with his wife Shante, who wore a chic black dress with a low neckline that emphasized her ample bosom. The entrepreneur matched her outfit with highlighted braids, silver jewelry on her neck, left wrist and fingers, and full face glam.
Dogg and Shante were joined by “The Upshaws” star Omar Ray and rapper TI, who appeared after presenting a posthumous award to the family of the late Nipsey Hussle at the BETs. The sweet ceremony, held at the Pelican Hills Resort in Newport Beach, California, saw Shante and her beau show off their dance moves at the reception.
At the after party, Epps and his then-bride, Kyra Robinson, wowed their guests with an unforgettable performance from Doug E. Fresh and The Whispers. The legendary 60’s band’s inclusion was so good that Snoop praised his friend for it.
Turns out, the “Chai Tea with Heidi” rapper has more good news to celebrate as singer Monica previously informed him that she won a BET Award in the Best Inspirational Gospel Song Award category.
She beat out other gospel contenders like Erica Campbell, Tori Kelly, and Kirk Franklin to earn the nod for “Blessing Me Again,” which she co-produced with Rance Allen.
