Lil Wayne adheres to a strict rule about not eating fast food, but this hasn’t stopped him from promoting it.
On Thursday (May 30), the veteran rapper teamed up with Uber Eats to announce that they have finally welcomed Domino’s pizza on their platform for delivery.

“It took us 10 years but Domino’s is finally on Uber Eats, so we’re giving away $10 million in free Domino’s pizza,” a voiceover says. Weezy then asks for clarification, prompting the phrase “10 Milli” to appear on the screen — a nod to his 2008 blockbuster “A Milli.”
“That’s a lot of millis,” he says while walking down a hallway made up of pizza boxes stacked atop each other as the song plays over the video.
Lil Wayne opened the ESPY Awards last year with a performance of “A Milli,” but with a twist.
The Young Money rapper took the stage at the Dolby Theater in Los Angeles over the summer to treat the crowd to a rendition of the classic joint, which was originally released as part of Tha Carter III.

Instead of reciting all the original lyrics, though, the 41-year-old decided to put a fresh, sports-themed spin on the song while wearing Marc Jacobs x Dr. Martens boots.
In this version, he name-dropped LSU’s Angel Reese, Buffalo Bills’ Damar Hamlin, the NBA’s most recent No. 1 draft pick Victor Wembanyama, Super Bowl champion Deion Sanders and NBA legend Dennis Rodman.
“Thank you,” he said following a roar from the audience. “Welcome to the 2023 ESPYs. Thank you for your time, I appreciate you.”
Later that evening, LeBron James accepted the award for the Best Record-Breaking Performance after becoming the NBA’s all-time leading points scorer earlier that year. During his acceptance speech, he announced he won’t be retiring ahead of the upcoming season.

“I don’t care how many more points I score or what I can or cannot do on the floor,” he said. “The real question for me is: can I play without cheating this game? The day I can’t give everything on the floor is the day I’ll be done. Lucky for you guys, that day is not today.”
