Representatives for Snoop Dogg are clearing the air after an Instagram comment making the rounds this week was falsely linked to the rap legend.
According to The Hollywood Reporter, a rep for Snoop Dogg confirmed that a comment attributed to him on Hollywood Unlocked’s page—where he appeared to apologize for recent podcast remarks—wasn’t written by him. In other words: that “Snoop apology” IG comment? Fake.
The confusion started after the West Coast icon made headlines for his appearance on the It’s Giving podcast. During the episode, Snoop recalled taking his grandson to see Pixar’s Lightyear in 2022 and being stumped when the film featured a same-sex couple.
“They’re like, ‘She had a baby—with another woman,’” he said of his grandson’s questions. “I didn’t come in for this shit. I just came to watch the goddamn movie… It threw me for a loop.”
Those comments were later scrubbed from the YouTube upload, but not before they sparked backlash. Hollywood Unlocked shared the clip with Ts Madison calling out the apparent contradiction: if Snoop Dogg was uncomfortable answering his grandson’s questions about same-sex couples, how does that square with his music videos that have featured women kissing?
That’s when a comment popped up under HU’s post, allegedly from Snoop Dogg himself. The account claimed, “I was just caught off guard and had no answer for my grandsons… My bad for not knowing the answers for a 6-yr-old. Teach me how to learn. I’m not perfect.”
Sounds like a clean-up moment—except Snoop’s camp says he never typed those words. At this point, it’s unclear who’s behind the fake comment, but the timing shows just how quickly narratives spread once a clip goes viral.
