Rapper Bow Wow became the centre of attention yesterday when his social media gaffe hit the headlines. 

It even inspired the #BowWowChallenge on Twitter with people putting their best 'Fake it till you make it' posts. 

The man himself appeared on US radio this morning and needless to say the first thing that was discussed was his gaffe. 

“I took the Greyhound in here this morning man,” Bow Wow joked, referring to the US based bus company. 

“It’s a scientific method to my madness,” he said, alluding to his upcoming reality show Growing Up Hip Hop“You got to watch the show. Everything is for the show.”

So he was in on it all the time? That's kind of disappointing to be honest. 

As one of the radio show's presenters clarified: “It was a troll. I believe he was trolling for this to happen. Maybe it’ll be in the show. I know for a fact that Bow Wow is too smart, that he thought he could get away with this.”

What do you think? Was the rapper actually trolling or is this just an elaborate cover up? Let us know in the comments.
