Lil Uzi Vert has revealed why they didn’t look happy when it was time to blow out the candles on their birthday cake this week.

A video of Uzi celebrating their 27th birthday went viral on Sunday (July 31). When asked to blow out sparkler candles and make a wish, the Philly rapper answered, “How? I don’t wish.”

Lil Uzi Vert took to Twitter on Tuesday (August 2) to explain why they acted that way, revealing they were actually excited inside, but scared to show their emotions.

“Everytime I have a bday dinner I reflect on my past and it makes me sad,” they wrote. “I don’t know why it’s just like that hug I never had ….. i be so excited in my head but be scared 2 show it. crazy man ….thank you for loving me for me y’all. hate my bday lollll.”

I was like damn why you do that she was like because I love you … I was like no you don’t she was like yes I do … I was like no you don’t she was like yes I do Jatavia Johnson a mess.”

However, Lil Uzi Vert did look excited while celebrating their birthday in the club, where they brought a ton of cash and hung out with James Harden and NAV. Their girlfriend, City Girls’ JT, also wished them a happy birthday with an Instagram montage, along with a caption declaring her love for them.
