Bow Wow is done staying quiet. After social media lit up with comments about his recent weight gain, the rapper-turned-actor decided to address it head-on in a fiery Instagram Live.
“They call me fat,” he said, visibly fed up. “Y’all don’t understand how this feels. Y’all been playing with me too long.”

But Bow Wow made it crystal clear—this isn’t about falling off. It’s about stepping into a new role. “If I have a role to do, I’m gonna get fat,” he said, suggesting that his current look is intentional and tied to an acting gig.
And he wasn’t just venting—he was also motivating. Speaking directly to the women and men grinding through tough seasons, Bow Wow raised a toast. “This shot is to the top. We’re not gonna stop. We’re gonna keep living, keep taking this thing higher.”
While critics might be stuck on his weight, Bow Wow is focused on elevation—professionally and personally. The message? Don’t judge the journey if you don’t know the destination.
Let’s be clear—Bow Wow didn’t owe anyone an explanation, but he gave one anyway. And he made it count.
