Malice of Clipse Accused of Stealing Hot Dog in Chicago

Rapper Gene Thornton, known as Malice of the duo Clipse, was visiting Chicago for the Lollapalooza festival when employee Roberta “Poochie” Jackson of The Wiener’s Circle accused him of taking a Polish sausage (a “glizzy”) without paying. The Wiener’s Circle, a well‑known Lincoln Park eatery famous for Chicago‑style hot dogs, says the missing item was worth $9. Jackson posted a video online asserting the claim, and the story quickly went viral. As of now, Malice has not issued a public response to the allegation.
