When it comes to politics and religion, most celebs want to stay out of the limelight since they’ll never be able to please everyone, but not Snoop. This “Drop It Like It’s Hot” singer has made several changes in his life, including changing his name from Snoop Dogg to Snoop Lion after having a spiritual awakening last summer in Jamaica that subsequently helped him create his Reincarnated album (also a documentary).
Featured on the album is even a song called “No Guns Allowed,” in which Snoop, his daughter and Drake team up for an anti-arms statement. Thinking back to the beginning of his career, it’s hard to believe this is the same guy.
Whether or not his beliefs on gay marriage stemmed from his spiritual awakening or whether they’ve simply always been his beliefs isn’t known, but one thing is certain. The rapper who previously pleaded for people to NOT vote for Mitt Romney is in favor of gay marriage.
“People can do what they want and as they please,” said Snoop to HuffPost, regarding his views on Proposition 8. “Satisfy yourself accordingly. I have no issues with nobody, I live for me and I live my life doing what I do, so you should have the right to do whatever you want to do.”
The right to do whatever you want are true words for the rapper who lives the way he wants to live—happily making music and smoking 81 blunts a day.
