AWARENESS: LUDACRIS GIVES AWAY 20 CARS TO PEOPLE IN NEED + VIDEO FROM THE EVENT
Car winner Joya Montgomery, Chris “Ludacris” Bridges and Roberta Shields (Luda’s mother) pose for photos at the LudaDay Car Giveaway at Nissan South over the weekend in Atlanta, Georgia.
The rapper/actor gave away 20 cars to needy Atlanta area residents as part of his LudaDay Car giveway, a contest via his Ludacris Foundation which encouraged people to write essays about how they were unable to buy or maintain their vehicles in order to find jobs and get to and from work.

Nicki Minaj Deserves Best New Artist, Ludacris Says
Ludacris knows how good it feels to win a Grammy. The Atlanta-based rapper has three in his collection, and he's hoping his eighth studio album, Ludaversal, brings him a few more. No release date has been set, but it's expected sometime this year.
Heady competition in the high-end headphones business
Rappers 50 Cent and Ludacris recently joined the likes of Lady Gaga and Justin Bieber in the ranks of musicians who either have their own headphones line or models bearing their name. But crescendoing competition doesn't bother Jimmy Iovine ...
read about this earlier this a.m. Very good thing to do. Go Luda!
Ludacris is doing alot of charity work. So proud of his positive direction
I love Luda… You gotta love those who continuously give back!
how nice..
This is great, it’s great to give back
Glad to hear this. Hope it gets much publicity; we usually only hear negative things about hip hop artists.
damn!…how was i NOT in the running for one of these cars lol
That a huge tax deduction
We need more celebrity news like this one.
Luda always gives back to his community
A beautiful thing – Instead of spending the money to by himself another car that he doesn’t need, he used the money to help those in desparate need of transportation.
Pass on the Blessings…
@ 11, couldnt agree with you more.! Thats a really blessing. Most ppl wouldnt do that in a million years, but most ppl are not like Ludacris. Instead of him spending sooo much money on jewelery(like soulja boy) he did the right thing.
Thats a real good look Luda!! Hes one of the best entertainers out whose not really getting that full limelight he deserves I believe.
Great thing he did..Bet CNN won’t even talk about it..They only like the negativity.
Good look, even better look is that they made sure the winners could pay tt&l.
I love this, it must be the greatest feeling for him.
His mom looks really good.
GOOD LOOKING LUDA!!…. That’s all people need is just a little help.. You just change sumones life.. GO LUDA GO… MAYBE A HOUSE NEXT TIME!!! LOL
WOW!!!!! i am truly amazed at his efforts, this is a really admirable deed. i have a newfound respect for CHRIS BRIDGES from now on.
Wow this is amazing Luda your the man. It shows that for once someone put someone else’s needs before his/her own and that shows true character. I’m inspired to do a good deed today… I guess i’ll pay my sister’s car payment so she can use the money toward her books. Keep it going
True, this would only get publicised if he hurt someone. When rappers/black people do something positive it’s not news.
And that is why he is magic… Good job Luda!
Very beautiful Luda. I lov how he stays close 2 the community. Something great will happen for Luda. When u give freely, things jus come back 2 u.
kind
LUDA!
I saw this “story” on t.v.
I think it’s GREAT that he did this.
Most “celebrities” now a days could care less about others – they just keep buying things for themselves. Although people don’t HAVE to give back it is a really good thing to do and more people should do it.
I plan on helping needy children when I’m a bit older – out of college etc.
Nice of him.
Thats whats up!
Do your thang Luda! I Luv it when people give help to those in need!
Nice to see blessed folks giving back.
What a wonderful thing that Luda did! I love seeing people give back to their communities. Ludacris is the definition of a role model.
Great Job!!! I one of the ones who buys your music, so its good to see that my money is going down in vain. Keep it up!
That’s good. I always like hearing about celebs who give back.
Doing great things Luda!

I love Luda ever since Luda came out he continued to grow and grow until he involved into the beautiful man he is today he can teach a lot of rappers a thing or two.

That was very nice of him. I heard on the radio that people were complaining about having to pay taxes on the car….Fucking ingrates. I would’ve snatched the damn keys from them.
Very touching video. Luda was already my boy–he continues to amaze me. He does a lot for his community. People don’t realize that rap music is only one side of a person–its not the whole person and they have many more facets to share with the world.
I know those people are so happy. I wish I could be given a car–no car payments–WHOAH! That is such a blessing.

i love seeing stuff like this it’s lets me know that there are good people out there i also would love to see more stuff like this in the news and not just when it’s celebrities but everyday people as well i do think the news and other media do concentrate on the negative to much
You Go Luda!!!!!!!
Proud of you!!!!!
Luda! Much Love!
everything i want to say has been said, this is a really good look! Chris has always been a charitable person but daaammnnnn boy lol, i am really truly proud of this man. Keep up the good work!!!!!!!
This man will conttinue to be blessed! Thank you Luda for giving back to the community. When I tell you it is hard out here it is hard!
Great going, Luda. Its good to help others in need.
That’s truly beautiful Luda!!!! What a blessing and God Bless you!
I think Ludacris stepped up and did the right thing and many other artist need to do the same instead of rapping and singing about what they got why dont they give more instead of just doing the regular “Im going to donate to this charity” and its never seen. I can appreciate an artist that knows how times are hard right now and acknowledge the ones who need the help. Big props to Luda for helping people stay on their feet and motivating them to keep on moving.
Thanks J. Dakar, keep on doing what you do.
THIS IS WHY I LOVE LUDA!
NOW SOMEONE CALL JAY-Z AND ASK HIM IF I CAN GET A BENTLEY
His ppl raised him right. He helped several Katrina Hurricane victims for a year. And he’s a brilliant actor.
Luda, that’s real admirable. I can appreciate people who do this.
i love this guy !
This is absolutely fantastic of him…he didnt have to ….
God bless you Luda..God loves a cheerful giver and he’ll continue to bless you more and more, Amen..
Yay Luda I knew there was a reason why I loved you. Look at my Boo giving away Cars oh he is amazing. Yeah ladies does your husband give away cars out of the kindness of his heart. lol Just playen yeah but that is a really a wondeful thing. You go Luda.
GG loves it
Philanthropy works…. a different way of “tithing” You are just giving to someone else in direct need. Very Good work, Luda.
Nice !
for this dude to dislike Oprah so much…. ummmm
What a wonderful thing for Luda to do. Very selfless, many should learn from his efforts.
that was sooo nice!!! He just gain a new FAN!!!!
20 scholarships would have been nice. think about it; black people giving each other cars… black people helping each other educate themselves. i think one sounds better.
luda, heart’s in the right place. mind isn’t. [maybe oprah WAS onto something...]
[car giveaway aside. maybe this is all sly commentary on her practices?]
