Recording artist/designer/actor Andre 3000 (best known for being the other half of Outkast) has been charged with driving 109 mph on a highway in suburban Atlanta.
Henry County Police Capt. Jason Bolton says the entertainer, whose real name is Andre Benjamin, was clocked speeding in a 65 mph zone in his Porsche south of Atlanta about 12:30 a.m. Saturday, March 28th.
The 33-year-old Benjamin is free on $1,200 property bond pending a court date April 29.
Benjamin’s publicist, Eufaula Garrett, did not immediately return a call seeking comment.
Police say Benjamin told them he was going so fast because he missed an exit and had to turn around.
As the Grammy-winning Outkast, Andre 3000 and Big Boi have churned out six platinum-plus albums, including their ubiquitous “Speakerboxxx/The Love Below.”

♫ Cassie feat. Akon - Let’s Get Crazy (full) - listen
My anticipation is building for Cassie’s album because of the new single, “Must Be Love,” featuring Diddy. But also because on Twitter, Diddy won’t stop talking about this amazing Bad Boy comeback! This new track from Cassie and Akon is produced by RedOne, who Akon has seriously put on with the production on Lady Gaga’s #1 hit, “Just Dance,” which also features his artist, Colby O’Donis. It sounds like exactly like something left over from Gaga’s album, The Fame.
♫ Keri Hilson feat. T-Pain & Lil’ Jon - Hey Girl (full) - listen
“Hey Girl” is a track taken from Keri Hilson’s In A Perfect World… sessions that didn’t make the album, but was rumored to be on the official tracklisting.
