High-profile artists like Lil Wayne, Chris Brown, and Marshmello allegedly misused millions in COVID-19 relief funds, diverting support meant for struggling venues to luxury lifestyles.
Lil Wayne's $8.9 million grant included $1.3 million for private jet travel and $460,000 on designer clothing, alongside questionable expenses for a music festival promoting his marijuana brand.
Chris Brown's CBE Touring received $10 million, with $5.1 million directed to him personally, including almost $80,000 for extravagant elements at his 33rd birthday party.
Marshmello reportedly allocated his entire $9.9 million SVOG grant to himself, leveraging income from touring to justify the claim despite its inconsistency with actual needs.
