Meek Mill Failed Drug Test; Blamed It On Protein Shake

While it was initially reported that Meek Mill's probation hearing had to do with travel violations, there may be more to it.

TMZ is now claiming that Meek failed a piss test because he handed the lab technician a cup filled with cold water.

Meek apparently told the tech that this was because he is a bodybuilder, and all the protein shakes he drinks make his urine watery (and cold.)

Nicki Minaj vouched for Meek in court, telling the judge Meek doesn't do drugs and she would have never let him drink all of those protein shakes if she knew they would affect his pee like that.

The judge didn't seem impressed with either explanation.

It's not looking good for Meek's short term freedom, which should be decided next week.
