Graham Norton Having a Doggy Time

American Rapper Snoop Dogg invited supermodel Elle Macpherson, soul singer Cee-Lo Green and actor Cuba Gooding Jr back to his dressing room for a slap-up feast after they filmed the Graham Norton’s BBC1 chat show last week.

The rapper was in town after playing host to the UK media in a strip club to promote his new album Doggumentary during his second trip to the UK since the ban was lifted. The Grammy Award winning rapper was banned from entering the UK following a brawl between his entourage and security at Heathrow airport in 2006

Sticking to his best behaviour and keeping all entertained with his doggy-style jokes, Snoop, 39, treated all to seven whole chickens and 40 chicken wings courtesy of Nandos, followed by trays of Krispy Kreme doughnuts as desert.

And it's a good job he'd lined his stomach with buckets of his favourite food - chicken because by 1am he was drinking gin at London club Movida, where a gang of ladies joined his table for tequila shots where they partied to the early hours of the morning.

Speaking to URBANWORLD'S OSWORLD, at Movida he said: “'I'm grateful for being here and proving to the authorities that I deserve to be here. I have had so much love and support from the UK.

“When I was a young rapper I would dream of coming here, and when I came I didn't want it to end.”

Christened Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr, Snoop also revealed plans to create his own X Factor-style show. He told URBANWORLD'S OSWORLD: “X Factor is great but I need to do a show that goes straight to the hood.  I want to find that raw untamed talent that hasn't been dressed up all nice for the TV.”
