Rapper Lil Wayne has confessed to a secret hobby - he's a passionate bowler. The "Lollipop" hitmaker, real name Dwayne Michael Carter, Jr., admits he spends much of his free time playing Nintendo's Wii games console with his daughter Reginae, 10, and has perfected the art of virtual tennis, bowling and golf.

But his sporting interests go deeper than computer games - the hip-hop superstar has invested in his own bowling accessories and owns four custom-made bowling balls.

The eight-time Grammy nominee says, "If you talk to a professional bowler, he would explain or she'll explain how your own ball and your own shoes and perfect lanes are important."
