US President Donald Trump is expected to issue up to 100 pardons before he leaves the White House this week - with rapper Lil Wayne reportedly one of the names on the list.

According to Fox News, Lil Wayne - real name Dwyane Carter - is expected to be let off the hook by Trump after authorities found a gold-plated gun and drugs in his bag at a Miami airport in 2019.

Lil Wayne threw his support behind Trump in the lead up to the November election, sharing an image of the pair on Instagram in October after what the rapper called "a great meeting".

There are also rumours that Trump will pardon disgraced zoo owner Joe Exotic, who found viral fame through the Netflix series Tiger King in 2020. He is currently serving a 22-year sentence on murder-for-hire and wildlife-related charges.
