Could Tyga be headed to jail?
The 26-year-old rapper has reportedly landed in legal hot water after failing to appear in court on Tuesday. According to TMZ, Tyga was expected to appear for questioning about his finances after a former landlord was granted a $480,000 judgment for unpaid rent and damages to the Malibu property.
The judge has reportedly now issued a bench warrant for Tyga's arrest -- meaning that he could go to jail -- for skipping out on the scheduled questioning.
TMZ's report also notes that Tyga's over-the-top birthday gift to girlfriend Kylie Jenner, a $200,000 Mercedes Maybach, has raised some red flags in the case. Attorneys for his former landlord reportedly claim that the purchase was a fraudulent transfer of assets that should have instead been allocated to the judgment.
Earlier this summer, Tyga signed a new lease on a home located just blocks from Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's Bel-Air estate. A source told ET in June that the 12,800-square-foot pad came with the steep price of $46,500 per month. Around that same time, Jenner took the Snapchat to show off a pair of matching, diamond-encrusted watches, while the couple shopped around for luxury vehicles.
And it was just last year that Tyga presented his ladylove with another pricey birthday gift: a $320,000 Ferrari 482 Italia.
