ICE CUBE - ICE CUBE FIRED TOUR DRIVER

Rapper ICE CUBE recently had to sack his tour bus driver, after he began drinking and partying with fans. Ice Cube, real name O'SHEA JACKSON, was on a 24-city tour promoting his new album LAUGH NOW, CRY LATER, when he noticed his driver enjoying life on the road a little too much. He explains, "We had to fire our bus driver - little too much gin and juice, you know what I'm sayin'? "We started noticing him at sound checks, kind of messing with the equipment. That was cool, we were like, 'Hey, man, put it down, man, leave it alone.' "And then he was at the shows rocking with the crowd. I'm, like, 'Dude, don't we got a 14-hour drive tonight?' "And he's like buzzed. I'm like, 'Dude, you've got to get out of here.' So we had to 86 (sack) the driver."
