The hilarious glacier incident comes after Ludacris playfully highlighted the difference between August and September Virgos, as zodiac season officially begins on August 22.
In a post on Instagram, the singer, who was born on September 11, compares the two types, clearly preferring the September Virgo, just like himself.
“The August Virgos bring a dynamic mix of expressiveness and practicality, influenced by the energies of the Leo-Virgo border,” he said.
‘September Virgos, on the other hand, are very precise in their organization and have analytical skills. In this they benefit from the influence of Mercury.’
