Summary

Snoop Dogg faced backlash from fans after performing at the “Crypto Ball,” a black-tie event celebrating Donald Trump’s upcoming inauguration.

Snoop, who once criticized Trump in his music and public statements, praised him in 2024 and performed his hit “Nuthin’ but a G Thang” at the $2,500-$5,000 per ticket event hosted by tech moguls.

Fans labeled the performance “embarrassing” and “disrespectful,” citing his past anti-Trump sentiments, including a music video and song that mocked Trump during his first term.

    It’s interesting how the past few months have made it super easy to tell who is an indefensible piece of shit. Lots of previously unassuming-to-“cool” personalities suddenly going whole-hog for fascism in the US.

      Stallone is one I never thought about in a political sense and now I know he’s a piece of shit, and I don’t want you watch him anymore. Gibson was a guy who everyone knew was trash but he just keeps doubling down, Jon voight as well, plus he bit Kramer’a arm that time

        I’ve always prefered Schwarzenegger anyway.

        Not to imply that he hasn’t done his fair share of awful things. But at least he refuses to side with fascists.

          When he was my governor (growing up I could see the capitol dome from my house if you stood on the roof) I remember I was at some event and he was being moved by people, some guy asked him some righty chud identity politics bullshit and Arny just looks over at him with this “I have 0 time for your bullshit” face and just says

          “Maybe don’t be asshole, hm?” And turns to talk to someone else

          Arnold isn’t perfect, at all. He might be the only Republican I’ve seen earn even a micro ounce of respect, though

          He’s one of Trump’s “special ambassador to Hollywood”

          AKA boot licker

          On top of being a piece of shit already
