“I give up smoking respect my privacy”, says Snoop Dogg

The hip-hop star, whose real name is Calvin Broadus, made a surprise announcement on social media.

Snoop Dogg, who has built a public persona around his copious marijuana intake, says he is giving up smoking.

“After much consideration & conversation with my family, I’ve decided to give up smoke.

Please respect my privacy at this time,” he posted on Instagram, external, and X.

He did not specify what form of smoking he was stopping, or even whether he was serious.

Some fans speculated that the post was part of a marketing stunt for his cannabis company Leafs By Snoop.
