When the children of Snoop Dogg, the famous American rapper, actor and football fan, agreed to their dad’s decision that they should learn to play football, they had only one condition-Snoop had to persuade his friend, the iconic David Beckham, to teach them the nuances of the game.
When contacted, Beckham, currently with LA Galaxy and a committed hip-hop music fan, readily agreed and indeed spent several hours with Snoop and his children. Snoop’s sons, Corde (13) and Cordell (10), and his daughter, Cori (8), were given lessons in free kicks and dribbling by the former English skipper.
Snoop’s spokesman said,
Snoop Dogg loves talking about celebrities he knows. His brood called his bluff when he claimed to know David and insisted on meeting him before they practised soccer. Snoop was really pleased to work with David, as he is a massive football fan. The children loved meeting their hero.
As a deal for teaching his kids soccer skills, Snoop took Beckham to his preferred eating joint, Roscoe’s House of Chicken ‘n’ Waffles. However, according to Snoop’s spokesman, he had been forbidden to go there by his wife, Shante, since Snoop had earlier got involved in trouble there.
Incidentally, Snoop had been arrested for a brawl at the Heathrow airport along with five of his mates in April last year. The coaching session of David Beckham with Snoop’s kids will be aired on January 20 on the reality show Snoop Dog’s Father Hood on the E! Entertainment channel.
