Love & Hip Hop’s Lil Scrappy Trades Jail Time For Public Speaking To High Schoolers!

It's no secret that one of my guilty pleasures is the cray-cray drama of Love & Hip Hop Atlanta.  But, if I'm going to be totally honest, trying to figure out Lil' Scrappy's secret language is something I look forward to each Monday.  I honestly think that if I could get Shay to go away (man, she bugs!), Scrappy and I would be the best of friends.

Sure, he may not be in the running for Father of the Year, but there is something about Scrappy that is so endearing.  Now, he's won my heart over even more as he's planning to start preaching sobriety and clean living to teens.  Don't even try to tell me it's PR.  I don't care.  I lov-is-nigh-ee it!

Rumor Fix has learned that Scrappy agreed to go to rehab for marijuana addiction and speak to young adults about good choices in exchange for jail time.  As you recall, the reality star and rapper just had a pee-related probation violation.

As I type, Scrappy is finishing up a thirty day in-treatment program for the ganja, and he is now claiming he's a changed man.  He's already volunteered to speak to teens about just saying to no drugs and the "thug life."

Scrappy tells the site, “I feel really blessed to have had the opportunity to address the reasons for my addictions.  I took my treatment very seriously and met the challenges presented to me. I’m a changed man for the better. Kids need to know the consequences of their actions. The kids can learn from my mistakes along with my road to recovery.”

For his precious daughter's sake, I hope he's being legit.  In the meantime, I will totes biz-nigh-ee at any of these "speaking engagements" if one comes to a convention center near me!

TELL US-DO YOU THINK SCRAPPY IS A CHANGED MAN?  WILL HIS SPEAKING ENGAGEMENTS BE POSITIVE FOR TEENS?
