Over the weekend, Wiz Khalifa was reportedly arrested in Romania for consuming marijuana during his performance at the Beach Please! Festival. The rapper was charged with illegal possession of high-risk drugs after being found with over 18 grams of cannabis and consuming more onstage. Footage circulating on social media shows Khalifa smoking during his set and later being escorted by police. In response to the incident, Khalifa issued an apology on social media, expressing his respect for Romania and promising to return without a joint next time. Despite the controversy, Khalifa is set to perform at Drai's Beachclub & Nightclub in Las Vegas later this month. The incident has sparked speculation about Khalifa's potential involvement in psychedelics with the recent launch of his mushroom brand.
