Ja Rule was busy reaffirming the silly American stereotype in Australia recently. The rapper terrified residents in the Sydney suburb of Pyrmont when he forgot the Aussies drive on the left and headed down the righthand lane after being distracted by views of Sydney Harbor.
His publicist Adam Cubito said: “I think he was more interested in looking at the view of Sydney than he was keeping his eyes on the road.”
Ja Rule was in town for his show at the Big Top event at Luna Park Saturday. He appeared on radio station Nova 969 to promote the show and talked about his love for fast cars. The show’s hos, Kate Ritchie, offered him a drive of her mother’s Toyota Seca with her colleagues Merrick Watts and Tim Ross.
“He powered out into Pyrmont with Kate in the front and the show’s other hosts Merrick and Rosso in the car and onto the wrong side of the road,” said Cubito.
“They were all shouting at him to get back on the right side. I think there were a few people ducking out of the way. He obviously thought he was still in America. Luckily there was no damage.”
Ja Rule was set to perform in Australia last month but had troubles with his visa due to his 2007 arrest for possessing a gun.
