Snoop Dogg is well known for his love of marijuana as much as he is known for his music. The West Coast legend did something very interesting for a charity auction in the past. Seth Rogen recently revealed how the rapper managed to auction off his blunt for Alzheimer’s.
The actor and his wife Lauren Miller Rogen spoke with Variety, remembering the time Snoop Dogg raised five figures for a charity. According to them, the “Drop It Like It’s Hot” rapper sold a blunt for $10,000 at an Alzheimer’s Charity Auction back in 2016.
Snoop Dogg once auctioned off a blunt on stage for Alzheimer’s. I think it went for $10,000.
If you’re lucky enough to be able to get Snoop Dogg to come perform at your show and auction off a blunt for Alzheimer’s care and research, then I think that speaks very well to an unexpected but effective kind of melding of matters and sensibilities.
Snoop Dogg is regarded as one of the most prominent cannabis activists in the entertainment industry. Snoop has long been outspoken about marijuana’s medical and recreational advantages.
Earlier this year, the rapper made headlines when he was caught lighting up before his halftime performance at Super Bowl LVI in his hometown of Los Angeles. He was recorded by untelevised production cameras, and at this point, Snoop has become synonymous with this behavior.
