“When tha pimp’s in da crib, drop it like it’s hot.” – Snoop Dogg The above quote means absolutely nothing, but The Situation from Jersey Shore is being sued for screwing over an apparel company called Serious Pimp, and Snoop apparently endorses some of their products … so there’s that. Serious Pimp is slapping Sitch with a lawsuit claiming the reality star made a deal to promote its t-shirts on the show, Facebook, Twitter and various other places. According to the lawsuit, Mike Sorrentino and his brother had the right to approve the t-shirt designs, but never said yay or nay. They just disappeared, allegedly. With the $25,000 advance he got. Serious Pimp planned on co-partnering with The Situation to make a bundle on the shirts, so they want that advance back as well as compensation for lost profit. Maybe The Unit is available to fill in? [Photo: WENN.com]

Snoop Dogg may be a rapper, actor, music mogul and pop culture icon, but that doesn’t mean he can’t shop for a bargain: Dude won $72,000 on The Price is Right! Appearing on the show to benefit his youth football league, he flat out raked it in as he assisted contestants playing for a good cause, having a blast in the process. Snoop said it was his favorite show to watch when he skipped school as a kid, which we imagine was often: “The feeling was still here. It’s like it never left.” Snoop Dogg on The Price is Right On a more poignant and serious note, the one time gangsta added, “The Snoop Youth Football League is something that we created over seven years ago.” “It’s meant to help inner city kids with all the gang violence and drugs and negativity. I wanted to start something positive that could be here 20 years from now.” Hard not to tip your hat to the Doggfather on that one.
On Monday, Snoop Dogg kicked off Celebrity Week on “The Price is Right,” playing alongside the show’s (normal) contestants to raise money for his charity. He was in rare form. Broadcasting platform : YouTube Source : Gossip Cop Discovery Date : 02/01/2012 18:21 Number of articles : 2

‘I’m a square in the movie, and I pretty much maintain that squareness,’ Wiz tells MTV News of his February film with Snoop Dogg. By Rob Markman Wiz Khalifa Photo: MTV News Wiz Khalifa is a pretty cool guy, right? That’s why it’s so hard to imagine the Taylor Gang general as a geek, but in his and Snoop Dogg ‘s upcoming film “Mac & Devin Go to High School,” the Pittsburgh rapper plays just that. “I’m super square in the movie,” Wiz told MTV News, laughing backstage at his and Snoop’s New York concert last week. “I’m a square in the movie, and I pretty much maintain that squareness. I mean, I walk on the wild side, I do some cool things, but I tapped into my nerdy side.” Though the “Mac & Devin” soundtrack hit stores Tuesday, the stoner comedy won’t be out until February. According to Wiz, it wasn’t difficult for him to turn down his cool for the camera. “That’s kind of who I am as a real person too; I was really reserved,” Khalifa said about his high school days at Taylor Allderdice High in Pittsburgh. “I was really fall-backish, so I can totally connect with my character Devin in the movie. It was real easy.” Fans got their first real glimpse of Wiz as Devin in the duo’s “Young, Wild & Free” video . In the clip, which mixes movie scenes with performance footage, Wiz’s character is seen wandering through the school halls looking extremely studious with his shirt buttoned all the way to the top. It was quite the transformation. “I had to do makeup every day to cover my tattoos. I had to spray my hair to get the blond out, but it was cool. It was an experience, and it was really, really fun to be a novice at acting, be brand-new and then have to learn,” Khalifa said. “I watched the movie, and I can actually see myself getting better in the movie.” Are you excited to see “Mac & Devin Go to High School”?
