According to the New York Daily News, Andre 3000 of the hip-hop duo Outkast has been charged with driving 109 mph on a highway in suburban Atlanta.

Henry County Police Capt. Jason Bolton says the entertainer, whose real name is Andre Benjamin, was clocked speeding in a 65-mph zone in his Porsche south of Atlanta about 12:30 a.m. Saturday.

The 33-year-old Benjamin is free on $1,200 property bond pending a court date April 29. Cops say he told them he was going so fast because he missed an exit and had to turn around.

    They were cool cops if the bail was only 1,200. The media really cised it. As soon as he got to jail he paid them and left. We’ll see what happens in court though, I doubt any jail time, might suspend his license for a while.

    Ok I admit that 109 is a little to much for a 65mph zone, but other than that, why is this news. People get caught speeding all the time. People post bail all the time. People miss their exits all the time. This is not news.
