Denied entry was the case that they gave him, as Snoop Dogg’s visa was given the no-go in Britain this week.
And all because of one little brawl in April of last year at Heathrow that left seven officers injured and Snoop and five of his buddies in jail for the night. Come on, he’s a rapper, what do you want?
They never should have denied Snoop and his entourage access to the first-class lounge. Thought he was pissed about that, wonder what he’s going to do about this. You think Snoop takes no for an answer from someone making $10 an hour? Please. So he’s banned from British Airways. Does that apply to all British doorways? Britain’s Home Secretary says yes.
Snoop and Diddy were originally going to postpone the One Love Peace Tour UK, but now that there is only love for one of the duo, they have cancelled the five scheduled dates in Britain. That leaves 65,000 people per show with no love. It’s a sad day in Britain; No juice for their gin.
Officials were also concerned about Snoop’s other arrests, namely last October at John Wayne Airport for carrying a collapsible baton, and then again at Bob Hope Airport for drugs and a handgun. Come on, that happens to the best of us. But the other criminal stuff like the murder case and all that other hassle didn’t help tip the scales in Snoop’s favor.
Snoop did his best to appeal to their finer sensibilities. He even went on MTV to beg for entry. This gem of wisdom came from the Dogg Father:
“I can’t control my drugs and gang-banging past,” he said. “People can see that I now have a different identity and that I’ve changed my lifestyle around completely. We let the Beatles in the U.S.A., so please let me in here.”
Oh that’s right, the Beatles used to wreck shop in their early days. I saw this one video of a Beatles gang-bang, it was terrible. They were some messed up dudes. It was that long hair. I almost totally forgot about the gun-toting havoc they wrought across the entire English countryside. We really did England a favor by letting them come over to the United States, Snoop is right.
Forgive my sarcasm. I guess a visa does get you everywhere you want to be. Hopefully they think that way in Ireland, where he plans to tour. Just chill ‘til the next episode.
Lennon: "There was no P*****g About!"
I must take exception with Ms. Paluch's mention of the Beatles here. I remember reading in a John Lennon book many years ago, how they Beatles and Stones would hit various towns and render themselves disgustingly drunk within an hour, and spend the rest of the evening making utter spectacles of themselves. In Lennon's own words, "there was no pissing about", where drinking was concerned. I feel for Mr. Dogg, as he clearly has mended his ways, and his friend, Mr. Diddy, exhibited what a gentleman he truly is, by refusing to perform with his associate. I bet John Lennon would have been eager to fill his pockets with American dollars should his rubber-lipped friend Mr. Jagger have found himself taken into custody at JFK, or wherever. The English are a curious breed - they are obsessed with politeness while simultaneously prone to prolonged bouts of heavy boozing, often resulting in rampant violence and mayhem. And don't get me started on the drugs. Those mop-heads from the Mersey were awash in every substance known to civilized man, and they knew no shame. Mr Dogg should rethink visiting England anyway. There are plenty of other countries in Australia, or wherever England is...
