There’s two things people say you should never work with in film: kids, and animals.
Lil Pump broke at least half of that golden rule.
While shooting a music video, Lil Pump was handed a snake. The snake, however, was not into it.
RELATED STORIES
For those that don’t know…
Lil Pump is a rapper responsible for everyone saying “Gucci gang” a lot.
He’s collaborated with some of the biggest names in the genre, like Kanye West and Lil Wayne, among others.
He was shooting a new music video when the snake incident happened.
Sporting holo sneakers, dyed dreads, and more jewelry than I’ve ever seen in my life, he was ready to handle a snake.
I gotta tell you, at no point in my life have I been ready to handle a snake.
They were using a LIVE snake in the video.
The snake handler brought the snake over while Lil Pump sat waiting on a prop set of stairs.
He reached out to take the snake, and that’s when the snake went, “NAH.”
That had to hurt.
The moment that he took hold of the snake, it coiled back and bit him right on the hand.
Lil Pump jumped away immediately, which is still calmer than what I would have done, which is immediately sprint for the nearest exist and maybe cry.
He walked up to his friend who was recording.
I’m guessing Lil Pump was hoping for a cool Instagram video where he handled a snake.
What he got was a cool Instagram story where he got super bitten by a snake.
Everyone around him was shocked.
“Look at my hand, bruh! That snake bit the [expletive] outta me!” He said, holding up his bloody hand.
“Yo, I just got bit by a snake, [expletive]! I got bit by a snake!”
The comments blew up.
Justin Bieber censoring himself is the funniest thing I’ve ever seen. Why…did he do that?
Anyway, to quote The Wedding Singer : “That’s information that would have been useful to me YESTERDAY! “
Someone offered to show him how it’s really done.
“Next time I will bring a cool sweet giant snake, just let me know,” @jayprehistoricpets offered.
I’m 99% sure I saw him in a Dolan Twins video (yes, I just admitted that). That guy has some crazy pets.
One person had a GREAT observation.
Yeah, one of those “expletive” uses up there was to censor that word.
Others were quick to point out that Lil Pump is of Latin descent, but that…still doesn’t mean he can say it.
Enrique had jokes.
Lil SNAKE? When is his album dropping? The snake, I mean. I’d maybe listen to some melodic hisses for like 30 seconds.
Anyway, if anyone is looking for a Lil Pump parody name, this is it.
While Instagram had some sympathy, Twitter spared nothing.
“Oh no! That’s pretty scary for a poor reptile, hope it wasn’t traumatized.”
Twitter is on another level, y’all. They don’t care who you are, they are gonna come for you and it’s gonna make me laugh.
King Bach could relate.
When he was around a snake much, much smaller than the one who bit Lil Pump, Bach was terrified.
“He bit Lil Pump yesterday, he’s not gonna get me today.”
That’s gold.
He got on his Instagram story later to talk about it more.
And by talk about it, I mean he was pretty mad at the snake for messing up his ring game.
I kinda get that. Sometimes you just want to wear your jewelry without a snake bite getting in the way. Relatable problems!
Anyway.
“[Expletive] it. I’m not even mad that the snake biting me, I’m mad because I can’t even wear my two-fingered Esskeetit ring.”
“Esskeetit” is a song by Lil Pump, just fyi.
He had to take it off immediately.
“This [expletive] hurt like a [expletive]! I gotta take this [expletive] right off. Aw, [expletive]! Listen man, [expletive] that snake. That [expletive] hurt.”
So, it sounds like he just might resent that snake a little.
