>The rapper, hip-hop icon and business mogul has teamed with GLAAD to back Spirit Day, an annual initiative that rallies thousands of celebrities, influential voices, media outlets, studios, brands, corporations, sports teams, tech leaders and more to wear purple and show support for LGBTQ youth. This year’s installment takes place today, Oct. 16, and finds Snoop showing his support by wearing purple while having a conversation with The Voice contestant Jeremy Beloate, an out member of the LGBTQ community who competed on Team Snoop on the NBC reality series.
>Snoop and Beloate talk about their friendship since meeting on The Voice and tease new music. Beloate tells Snoop about his own experience with bullying as a kid while sharing advice he has for others who might be experiencing the same.
>Snoop has taken his support a step further by collaborating with Beloate on a new song titled “Love is Love” that is featured in a new episode of Snoop’s animated children’s series Doggyland on YouTube. Beloate voices a puppy named Zippy that joins the Doggyland family to sing about love. The cast of characters is led by the Snoop-voiced Bow Wizzle, a main character that serves as the adult mentor.

You don’t HAVE to do that Snoop, just treat them with respect and like people.
Dude you did Trump’s inauguration we know you’re a sell out just doing this to „save“ your image so you keep getting money. Get out of here XD
It’s ironic because the morale of the story for lightyear is the serenity prayer…
He already showed himself
This would be a good step forward . . . if he acknowledged his previous ignorance. He has taken no accountability for putting his small mindedness out into the world, and this would’ve been a perfect opportunity to acknowledge that and to move forward. Since he didn’t, it feels like a PR move to save his „wholesome family friendly“ image.
60-year-old multimillionaire „rebels“ take orders from their publicists and business managers — nothing to see here . . .
Snoop only cares that he’s losing money. Make him poor
Snoop is MAGA so he’s not getting respect back
This is the definition of performative – he’s seems pretty cool with Trump – so I don’t think he cares about queer folks.
How is he still relevant?
Snoop is a sell-out, I’m done with him.
worst part of all of this was having to defend Lightyear
He’s had these the whole time is the confusing part
Too little, too late.
How crazy is it that Snoop Dogg, who rapped “…Bitch get on your knees and then start juggling, my motherfucking nuts in yo mouth…” has the audacity to say an animated, lesbian couple sharing a quick kiss somehow harms kids. That’s some old, white man level of cluelessness.
If someone had told me years ago that Snoop Dogg would have a children’s show, I would have gotten an explicit lyrics sticker from all the cussing.
