JT recently put Lil Uzi Vert’s ride-or-die status to the test in a hilarious stunt for Elle magazine’s Phoning It In series. The setup? Call her boyfriend with an off-the-wall story and see how he reacts.
Before picking up the phone, JT told the crew she had the perfect scenario in mind. She would tell Uzi that her niece had been caught shoplifting at a Lululemon store and, somehow, she was the one being blamed. The twist was that the store supposedly charged her with child neglect and claimed she was being taken to jail.
When she got Uzi on the line, JT calmly explained the situation and added that she needed $50,000 for bail. Without hesitating, Uzi responded with, “What I gotta do?” and asked her to send over the exact location so he could get there. While he sounded a little irritated by the whole thing, he still made it clear that he was ready to step in and help.
That was JT’s cue to drop the bomb: it was all a joke. The moment she revealed the truth, Uzi ended the call right away, which only made the prank more entertaining for everyone watching.
The entire exchange fit perfectly with Phoning It In’s theme, where celebrities scroll through their contacts, dream up outrageous situations, and see how the other person handles it. In JT’s case, the prank showed two things. First, Uzi was willing to shell out a huge amount of money and rush to her side if she was really in trouble. Second, he has zero patience for being played.
It was the kind of lighthearted moment that fans love to see, mixing humor with a genuine glimpse into the couple’s dynamic. Even if it was fake, JT proved her man would be there if it ever got real.
