Chet Haze

Aspiring rapper Chet Haze made the news again. It’s been less than a week since I talked about the 24-year-old, third son of Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson. Chet recently tried to enlighten the world by refusing to stop dropping the “beautiful” n-word. He was very upset about being called out for his use of an offensive term. Chet’s blinded by his own wealth and privilege. He wants to be seen as an authentic rapper and feels like dropping the n-word gives him street cred. Dude is extremely clueless.

Chet’s been in London for the past week. He Instagrammed this picture ^^^ with the following caption: “This trip was a movie. Coming back to LA focused on this music sh*t. Bout to be recording and releasing a lot more. Stay tuned.” This weekend, London got a real taste of Chet Haze. He trashed a hotel room to prove how much of a rap star he is. Or maybe he was blitzed out of his mind. Chet reportedly threw a tantrum about three women who wouldn’t sleep with him, and the fact that no one had any cocaine to give him:

British detectives are hunting Hollywood star Tom Hank’s son after he allegedly smashed up a hotel room in a sex and drugs row. Chester Hanks is said to have gone berserk, causing £1,200 worth of damage when he took three girls back after a late night party.

Shocked staff called police next morning after discovering shattered glass and a TV set ripped off the wall in the four-star room near Gatwick.

A source claimed: “He was pretty obnoxious once he started drinking at the club. He kept saying ‘do you know who I am?’ Nobody was all that impressed and that was clearly annoying him. Nobody recognised him. He then went back to the hotel with a British actor friend and three female promoters. He was sick in the car park and then went up to the room and got really loud.

“He asked the girls if they would join him in the bed, but they are not like that. So he started screaming and making a right noise. He saw some sprinkled make-up called banana powder and started asking ‘who’s got the coke?’ But nobody did drugs there. Then he started shouting that he was not going to share it with another man.”

The source added: “Then all you could hear was this smashing and crashing. Next morning he was gone but the room was trashed. Everything was smashed and there was glass all over the floor.”

Hanks is the third eldest of his famous A-lister father’s four sons. His attempt to make his name in hip hop as ‘Chet Haze’ has brought him ridicule for adopting black culture despite his privileged white upbringing.

In a text to the Sunday Mirror, Chester called the claims “a slanderous bold-faced lie.” He also threatened the “full force of my legal team” but would not comment further.

Just a guess, but Chet Haze promising “the full force of my legal team” probably means, “I’m going to call my dad to bail me out of this situation.” I can’t even imagine how Tom and Rita felt to hear his news. It’s pretty freaking sad.

Chet has a history of drug and alcohol use. Last November, he claimed to be 60 days clean and sober after completing rehab for cocaine addiction. In 2011, Chet told Vice magazine that he always raps about weed because “I wanted to rap about something that I do.” He also added, “I’m not some caricature of a person who just drinks and smokes weed and parties all the time. I’m more complex than that.” Unfortunately, smashing up a hotel room makes Chet look like exactly like a party-boy caricature. I hope he gets help soon.
