Snoop Dogg calls Queen Elizabeth 'a fan' as he fondly recounts his relationship with British royal family

LONDON, UNITED KINGDOM: Snoop Dogg has fondly recalled his relationship with the late Queen Elizabeth.

During an interview on the UK radio station Capital FM with DJ Jordan North on July 23, the rapper affectionately spoke about his experiences with the British monarch, calling her "my girl" and "a fan" of his music, according to People magazine.

When North inquired about the rapper's plans in the UK, Snoop mentioned, "I'll go by the palace, see if they let me in," referring to the Buckingham Palace.

North then said, "Well, I've heard the future king, [Prince] William, is a huge Snoop fan," to which Snoop responded, "Well, the Queen was a fan too. Rest in peace to the Queen, that was my girl. You know what I'm saying?"

"So, just may want to go up and, you know, see what you do," Snoop remarked.

Snoop Dogg’s longstanding relationship with the British monarchy

Snoop had previously mentioned his relationship with Queen Elizabeth when he revealed to DJ Whoo Kid that she intervened to prevent a ban on his entry to the UK in 1994 when he was embroiled in first and second-degree murder charges.

During that time, certain parties in the UK sought to prevent Snoop from visiting and performing in the country due to his legal issues.

Per Snoop’s account, Queen Elizabeth resolved the matter by allowing his entry to the United Kingdom.

"Guess who came to my defense? Just take a guess," he said during the DJ Whoo Kid interview. "The Queen. The Queen said, 'This man has done nothing in our country. He can come.'"

Snoop continued, "The Queen…bow down…when the Queen speaks, bow down. That's [Prince] Harry and William's grandmother, you dig?"

Snoop also suggested that Prince Harry and Prince William may have influenced her decision to support him, saying, "You think they weren't there, saying, 'Grandma, please let him in, grandma. He's OK. We love his music.'"

Additionally, Snoop pretended to imitate the Queen's response, saying, "'You know Harry, I'll let him in for you. He's not so bad after all and he's quite cute," before adding, "The Queen, that's my gal."

Snoop even paid tribute to Prince William by releasing a song titled ‘Wet,’ in honor of his bachelor party in 2010.

“When I heard the royal family wanted to have me perform in celebration of Prince William’s marriage, I knew I had to give them a little something. ‘Wet’ is the perfect anthem for Prince William or any playa to get the club smoking," the rapper said at the time, according to Rolling Stone.

Snoop's conversation with Capital FM came about before he participated in the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, where he carried the opening torch and later worked as an NBC correspondent covering the games.
