Lil Jon Twitterview
By Dana Flax
Known as the ambassador to all things crunk (crunk music, Crunk!!! Energy Drink and, you know, the "pimp cup"), Lil Jon possesses no shortage of enthusiasm. That's why we asked him if he'd join us for a high-energy Twitterview, where we could get the lowdown on his new album "Crunk Rock," his personal grills-hygiene habits and his epicurean tastes.
Check out our exclusive Twitterview with LJ (Be warned: There's plenty of caps lock), then follow @WonderwallMSN and @LILJIZZEL to ensure plenty of celeb news bites and YEAHs populate your Twitter timeline.
