The Grammy-nominated rapper was taken into federal immigration custody in the Atlanta area early Sunday. An official says the rapper is a British citizen who overstayed his visa and is also has a felony conviction.

Lovato had tweeted: “So far 21 savage memes have been my favourite part of the Super Bowl.” She later clarified she wasn’t laughing “at anyone getting deported.”
