Bow Wow is defending himself after being dragged on Twitter for hosting $1,000 meet-and-greets with fans, offering the expensive package for his upcoming Millennium Tour: Turned Up! alongside Mario, Keri Hilson and others.
The 35-year-old rapper and actor was charging the hefty amount for a “Diamond VIP Package,” which offers fans a 30-45 mounted personal meet-and-greet with Bow Wow, as well as a tour of his bus and backstage lounge, according to his website.
Those who pay for the Diamond Package also get a handful of various freebies.
Bow Wow Dragged On Twitter For Expensive Meet-And-Greet Packages
However, the cost of the experience quickly spread online, with one viral video showing a fan going in on Bow Wow over the price of the meet-and-greet, comparing his price tag to that of Chris Brown, who similarly charged “a rack for a meet-and-greet.”
“So Deaconess Bowlorain Wowardon decided that she was gonna hop on Chris Brown’s bandwagon and charge a rack for a meet-and-greet,” the fan said. “Now while we know that meet-and-greets are not new … what [Brown] did was set the tone for what a backstage experience is supposed to be like, especially when you spending $1,000 to see your favorite artist.”
Why did she call Bow Wow that name?!

The fan in question went on to say “there is a level of celebrity that you have to be in order to obtain $1,000 per person.” She added that Bow Wow’s VIP package should be “$250, at the most,” and said she would get it “off a Groupon for $75.”
“The facts are what they are: Bow Wow, sister girl, you are not that level of celebrity,” she added. “At the most, $250. Maybe I’ll get it off a Groupon for $75, but ain’t no way in this hell or the next one that you getting $1,000. Even though you’re giving quite a bit, it’s still not $1,000 worth.”
However, Bow Wow took to Twitter on Sunday and addressed the reactions to his VIP package, defending the price tag while emphasizing the “private” experience that it offers.

The rapper added that he does offer a much cheaper meet-and-greet Gold Package, which costs $150, but doesn’t allow for the personal and private experiences of the Diamond Package.
Bow Wow likened the cheaper package to a “standard picture taking.”

He went on to say that those who pony up for the VIP experience “will gain more private time with me… and will gain access to my private club and everything you can name.”
“As for my special VIP meet and greet experience .. They will gain more access more private time with me also will gain access to my private club and everything you can name,” he added. “There are 3 different packages to choose from. It’s all about how close do you want your experience to be.”
