On February 6, the NFL hosted its annual Honors ceremony, celebrating the best and brightest in sports entertainment. The event, hosted by Snoop Dogg, was filled with memorable moments, but one particular joke from the rap legend had the crowd in stitches.
Snoop Dogg Roasts Bill Belichick’s Relationship
During one of his comedic segments, Snoop Dogg addressed the widely-discussed relationship between NFL coach Bill Belichick, 72, and Jordon Hudson, 24. The two have been dating since 2023, and their 48-year age difference has sparked significant conversation.
“I remember when the Cowboys were good, when the Chiefs were bad… and I remember—what was it—Bill Belichick’s girlfriend wasn’t even born yet?”
The audience erupted in laughter, and even Belichick and Hudson were seen sharing a chuckle at the joke, showing they were good sports about the lighthearted roast.
Snoop Dogg Faces Backlash Over Trump Performance
In other news, Snoop Dogg continues to receive criticism after performing at a pre-inaugural event for Donald Trump. The backlash stems from controversial remarks Trump made during his campaign, including an offensive comment about Haitian people.
A resurfaced clip of Snoop from 2016 has added fuel to the controversy. In the clip, the rapper criticized Black artists who performed at Trump’s inauguration, making his recent decision appear contradictory to some fans.
Activists and Fans React to Snoop’s Decision
Kevin Powell, a well-known activist, publicly condemned Snoop Dogg’s choice, arguing that the rapper does not value his fans from marginalized communities. Additionally, Snoop reportedly lost 20,000 followers on his X account following the performance.
Snoop Dogg Responds to the Backlash
Despite the controversy, Snoop Dogg defended his decision in an Instagram video, where he dismissed the backlash and reaffirmed his identity:
“Y’all can’t hate enough on me, I love too much. Get your life right, stop worrying about mine. I’m cool, I’m together. Still a Black man. Still a hundred percent Black. I ain’t going nowhere, cuh!”
With Snoop continuing to command attention on and off the stage, it’s clear that he remains unapologetic and steadfast in his beliefs, even amid criticism.
