Snoop Dogg Banned from Australia
Posted in Snoop Dogg, World Tour on the September 8, 2008
It looks like England isn’t the only place where Snoop Dogg is having visa problems. He can now add Australia to the list of countries who don’t want him. The rapper was refused permission to even apply for a visa to Australia back in 2007 because of his criminal records. Immigration officials recently cleared the way for an October tour visit until a bunch of public complaints came in. A senior immigration official said that “as a result of public concern and interest” the immigration authority will be taking a “more thorough assessment” of Snoop’s character. It looks like Australia’s going to be crossed off his world tour list.
Snoop’s Troop Gets Busted
Posted in Drugs, Snoop Dogg on the August 2, 2008
Sources report that Snoop Dogg’s tour bus was pulled over by police on Interstate 35, south of Dallas, on Thursday afternoon. Two people were arrested for marijuana possession. State troopers initially pulled over the bus for expired stickers and discovered some marijuana after a routine inspection. The rapper was not arrested but two people in his entourage were. The two members of Snoop’s dog pound were arrested and booked in the Navarro County Jail. Since Snoop wasn’t arrested, he was free to continue on with his tour schedule which had him performing in Dallas this past Thursday. It’s a good thing he didn’t miss it.

Posted in CMT Awards, Rapper, Singers, Snoop Dogg, TV Show on the April 21, 2008
He has a reality show, showed up to the CMT Music Awards looking like a Western vampire and now, Snoop Dogg is set to make an appearance on the ABC daytime soap ‘One Life to Live’ with two episodes featuring him scheduled to air next month. They apparently worked the rapper into a bachelorette party storyline where he’ll perform the tracks ‘Sensual Seduction’ and ‘Life of da Party’. It is also being reported that Snoop reworked the show’s theme and will replace the original theme on the two episodes in which he features. Snoop also reveals that he’s actually a fan of the show saying “I’ve been a fan of ‘One Life to Live’ since I was a baby. My momma always had it on the tube in the crib growing up. The opportunity to change up the theme song and give it some of my flavor will make the show the life of the party.â€
Doggy Heart Attack
Posted in News, Snoop Dogg on the January 21, 2008
Nate Dogg, the cousin of Snoop Dogg, has reportedly suffered what was described as a heart attack. TMZ obtained the 911 call that was made and the caller has to be the most nonchalant person to ever walk the planet. It almost sounds like she’s making an everyday call and not for a guy who’s life may be on the line.
Since the original incident, reports are saying that Nate actually suffered a stroke and not a heart attack. The 38-year old rapper is currently in a medical rehab facility recovering from the stroke but no other information on his condition has been made available.

Rapper Pimp C, real name Chad Butler, has been laid to rest. He was found dead last week in his room at Hollywood’s Mondrian Hotel. His funeral took place in Port Arthur, Texas where KFDM-TV cameras caught the hearse pulling up to the Robert A. Bowers Civic Center in the rapper’s hometown.
According to KFDM, fellow rappers Jay-Z and Snoop Dogg planned on attending but did not show up. His one time collaborator C-Murder wasn’t able to show up either as he is currently on house arrest awaiting a murder retrial.
John Mayer is Gangsta
Posted in John Mayer, Music, Music People, Performance, Rap Music, Rock, Rumor, Singers, Snoop Dogg, Song on the December 13, 2007
Who knew that John Mayer has it in him to be a gangsta? He’s a closet Snoop Dogg fan!
Paparazzi caught up with the ever-eccentric crooner as he left a party at the Chateau Marmont on Monday. He was pimpin’ in the passenger seat of a black Mercedes as a Snoop rhyme was blasting from the speakers.
In a poor attempt to avoid answering any pap questions, John actually pulled a Paris Hilton by talking on a cell phone. But he actually one-ups the blonde socialite by having a phone at each ear! How would it even be possible to carry a conversation on two phones with people screaming questions at you?
