Snoop Dogg on friendship with late Queen Elizabeth, who ‘was a fan’ of his music: ‘That’s my girl’

Snoop Dogg recently shared details about his relationship with the late Queen Elizabeth II, calling her “my woman.”

During a July 23 interview on British radio station Capital FM, Snoop, real name Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr., and host Jordan North discussed the rapper’s royal connections over tea at London’s luxurious Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park Hotel.

“I will go through [Buckingham Palace]”See if they’ll let me in,” Snoop told North after being asked about his plans while in the country.

North replied, “Oh, I hear the future king, William, is a big fan of Snoop.”

“Yeah, the Queen’s a fan too,” the “Drop It Like It’s Hot” rapper said, adding, “Rest in peace Queen, that’s my girl. You know what I mean? So you might wanna go there and, you know, see what you get up to.”

“I’m pretty sure you can go into the palace — you’re Snoop Dogg, you can do whatever you want,” North replied.

Snoop previously revealed to The Guardian that Queen Elizabeth II – who died in 2022 – intervened to stop his deportation from the UK in the 90s.

While he was touring the country in 1994, there were calls for his deportation because he faced murder charges in Los Angeles. The charges were later dismissed.

Snoop shared that when some people tried to kick him out of the UK, the late queen told him that her “grandchildren” Prince William and Prince Harry “love” him. According to the rapper, Queen Elizabeth defended him and said he “did nothing wrong in the UK,” leading to him being allowed to continue performing in the country.
