Either a sign of how big a deal Red Bull's Crashed Ice contest in St. Paul has become, or how much Lil Jon's career is on ice, the Atlanta rapper has agreed to fly up to Minnesota in a subzero-degree week to headline the roller-derby-on-ice's official after-party at Myth nightclub in Maplewood on Saturday. Here's the really shocking thing about the show: Tickets are a mere $15, plus fees. Click here to buy them online.

The grill-toothed King of Crunk, whose last real hit was "Snap Yo Fingers" in 2006, lists a gig in Las Vegas tonight as his other tour date of the moment. He's still considered a big enough celebrity, though, to be lined up for an all-star season of NBC's "Celebrity Apprentice" that's slated to start March 3.
