It appears life is far from a “Gangsta’s Paradise” for Grammy-winning rapper/actor Coolio, 45, who was arrested at Los Angeles International Airport this past Friday for possession of crack cocaine. Coolio was in route to catch a Southwest Airlines flight and was stopped by a screener when going through security, according to the New York Times. The star was detained by the Los Angeles Police Department and released after posting $10,000 bail.-QS
