This article has been mentioned by a media organization:

"Sounding out Snoop Doggy". The Star Online Malaysia Entertainment. March 8, 2005.

This article has been viewed enough times in a single week to appear in the Top 25 Report 2 times. The weeks in which this happened:

Mercedes Moné

In the second paragraph of the Personal Life section, it is stated that Mercedes Moné is a NJPW wrestler and, while she does wrestle for NJPW, she is currently signed to AEW, so I think that should be reflected here. Doikey18 (talk) 23:45, 30 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Unrelated, but the name "Philip Woldemariam" has been misspelt as "Philip Woldermariam" in this article. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2600:8801:9A29:FF00:D0AE:64D2:A254:5E63 (talk) 00:04, 31 July 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Number of Grammy nominations

At the end of the first paragraph, it says Snoop has 17 Grammy nominations. However, according to Snoop’s Grammy page (https://www.grammy.com/artists/calvin-broadus/14274) he has 16 nominations, not 17. SeanShimamoto (talk) 15:49, 27 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
