Rapper Lil Wayne has said a video of him stomping on an American flag was taken out of context. Wayne states that he was actually shooting a movie about an emaciated Ethiopian who fell off a boat while attempting to sail to the United States. In the movie, Wayne's character, ulack Shack clings floating half unconscious to a plastic beer cooler that incredibly bumps up against a US aircraft carrier where moments before a fighter jet had landed and deposited then President Bush who went on to give his now famous Iraq "Mission Accomplished' speech. Startled, Wayne's character finds a ladder and begins to climb up deck. On reaching deck ulack finds that the pounding waves had ripped up his clothes. Attempting to find a spot that is out of sight he slips and and gets tangled up in an American flag that had been torn from it's moorings by the sea's high winds. That is where Wayne's troubles begin. "I didn't stomp no damn flag! It was all part of the movie. I was supposed to get tangled up and wrapped up in the thing. Then George Bush is supposed to see me and mistake me for an American Immaculate Conception delivered by the flag. I even asked them (the producers) and they told me not to worry but that it wasn't really an American flag but a Puerto Rican flag with a few extra stars painted on it'.
Lil Wayne was said to be hanging out at an undisclosed location " till the damn heat dies down"
