Wiz Khalifa Sentenced To 9 Months In Romanian Prison! OMG!

Someone pass the rolling papers because this story is absolutely wild.

Wiz Khalifa, Mr. Young, Wild & Free himself, is suddenly not looking very free at all after a Romanian court slapped him with a jaw-dropping nine-month prison sentence over weed. Yes, you read that right. Nine months. For marijuana. In 2025. The universe truly loves irony…

Here’s the tea, per TMZ: after Wiz was initially handed what seemed like a slap-on-the-wrist fine of about $700 over the weed issue, Romanian prosecutors asked to push the case further. On Thursday, the Constanța Court of Appeal sided with them and upgraded the punishment to a full-on prison sentence. That escalated quickly! One minute it’s pocket change, the next it’s lockup abroad. Talk about a buzzkill!

Of course, Wiz’s camp is scrambling to put out this legal fire. Sources say nothing is final yet, and his team is already appealing the decision in hopes of finding an alternative that does not involve their famous client sitting in a Romanian cell.

The whole mess traces back to July 2024, when Wiz was performing at Costinești’s Beach Please! Festival. While vibing onstage and dancing to Dr. Dre and Snoop Dogg’s The Next Episode, Wiz did what Wiz does best and lit up a joint in front of thousands of fans. Common in California? Yes! Legal in Romania? Nope!

Authorities arrested him shortly after the performance and briefly detained him, setting off a legal chain reaction that has now exploded into this mess.

Romania’s drug laws are no joke, and they clearly aren’t impressed by celebrity status or hip-hop culture. While fans online are shaking their heads at how harsh this feels, the reality is that Wiz may be facing an uphill battle.

Still, locking up a rapper for nine months over weed feels like something out of a time capsule.

Will Wiz actually serve time, or will common sense prevail? Stay tuned, because this international weed saga is far from over…
