'I don't want to go to jail!' T-Pain's Australian tour in crisis as he risks being denied entry into the country due to parking ticket from 10 years ago

He's been entertaining fans for over a decade with hits like Buy U a Drank, I'm N Luv (Wit A Stripper), and Church.

But now T-Pain's Australian tour could be in jeopardy due to a previous issue with US police from 2007, when he was caught driving with a suspended license.

According to The Daily Telegraph, this could cause problems with customs for the 31-year-old, who is due to fly to Perth on Saturday for a concert the following day.

'They're like, you got a parking ticket in 2007, you can't come here.'

The rapper said that he was trying to 'fix' the issue, and is hoping to make the concert as scheduled on Sunday.
