Lil' Wayne Goes To Prison -- To Shoot 'Go DJ' Video

Closed Ohio State Reformatory was also used for 'Shawshank Redemption.'

Lil' Wayne spent the day in jail on Tuesday.

The rapper was shooting a video for "Go DJ," the next single from his album Tha Carter, at the closed Ohio State Reformatory, according to The Associated Press.

About 30 teens showed up to watch the taping at the 108-year-old prison, which has been used in several films and music videos, most notably in "The Shawshank Redemption," "Air Force One" and a Godsmack video.

The Mansfield Reformatory Preservation Society reportedly needs between $10-$20 million to renovate the closed facility, which was shut down in 1990. Lil' Wayne helped the cause, paying about $2,000 to film his video in the west cellblock.
