Rapper Snoop Dogg used to keep cockroaches as a pet for half a year

Rapper Drop It Like It’s Hot revealed in a recent Nardwuar interview that his original intention was to get rid of the cockroach, but he was struck by the insect’s will to live: “In my apartment, there’s a cockroach that I can’t kill. Actually, I tried to kill it when I first moved in but it didn’t die. So I lived it best and usually gave it a name. as my “roommate” for about half a year and so on,” said the rap star.

Snoop is known to be an animal lover.

Over the years, Snoop has shown his love for animals by publicly supporting the plant-based meat company Beyond Meat, offering to adopt an abandoned dog and name it after him. The rapper is also the creator of the Snoop Doggie Doggs brand, a line of dog toys and merchandise.



Snoop Dogg (Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr.) is an American rapper, singer, songwriter, record producer, and actor. The male rapper once made Vietnamese netizens “fever” after collaborating with male singer Son Tung M-TP in the song “Let’s Give You” released in 2019.

Despite a successful career and an admirable fortune, few people know that Snoop Dogg’s wish when he gets old is very simple. He once said, “When I’m not a rapper anymore, I will open an ice cream parlor and change my name to Scoop Dogg”.
