Term-X 7,891 Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 NORMALLY mascot places are taken by small children but 6ft4ins Snoop is desperate to lead out the team when they walk out for the glamour Champions’ League tie next Tuesday.HIP HOP superstar Snoop Dogg is begging Celtic to let him be a mascot when the Hoops take on Italian champions Juventus.The rapper, who now calls himself Snoop Lion after converting to Rastafarianism, said he’s desperate to get a ticket for the glamour Champions’ League tie next Tuesday.And he says if he can’t get his hands on a brief, he’ll settle for leading out the team.His plea comes just months after we revealed how he wanted to invest in Celtic and sign “his man” David Beckham for the Parkhead club.During an interview in Dubai last week, Snoop donned a Celtic scarf and revealed he is desperate to get to the Juventus tie.He said: “It’s the one I need to go to. It’s the game we’ve been waiting for.“I need tickets but I want to walk out with the team like a little kid with the banner. Yes, yes, make it happen.“Hail, hail the Celts are here. Yabadabadoo!”After being told he might end up sitting beside Celtic superfan Rod Stewart, he added: “Do you think I’m sexy?”Snoop was first snapped wearing a Hoops shirt in 2005, though some fans doubt his allegiance to the team as he often wears replica kit of sports clubs from around the world.But last year the Sunday Mail revealed that the rapper was a true fan following Celtic’s 2-1 victory over Barcelona in November.We told how Snoop planned to invest in the club and had even asked Beckham for advice.Snoop, a fan of his home city basketball team the LA Lakers, told reporters in Dubai: “I fell in love with the club and what better way to show my support than to be a part of it.“I just want to learn more about it and I figured if I become a part of it, I’ll do that.”“I love sports, I’m athletic. All around the world there are different sports that dictate that part of the world you live in – and I just want to be a part of it.”And his involvement could bring a splash of showbiz glamour to Parkhead.He added: “I have got a big interest in soccer. It’s not new for hip hop stars to invest in sports teams but it is a new thing for hip hop stars to invest in soccer teams.“I haven’t really thought how much to put in.“I don’t need to run the club but I’d like enough of a percentage to get me on the board and be heard.“I want to bring a bit of Snoop to things.“I am passionate about my sport. The boxes at Celtic would never be the same once I have hosted a party there.”http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/snoop-dogg-asks-celtic-to-let-him-1572312'>http://www.dailyreco...let-him-1572312 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OneMoSalah 8,886 Posted February 3, 2013 Share Posted February 3, 2013 The cunt is off his nut, I'd imagine Neil Lennon would probably headbutt him if he tried leading the team out. Stop smoking that green shiz Snoop. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
