A flight attendant was pleasantly surprised when she thought rapper Snoop Dog was on the same flight as her – but later got an unexpected surprise.
Southwest Airlines flight attendant Chrissy Lofton was on a flight to Fort Lauderdale, Florida when she spotted a Snoop Dogg look-alike and quickly asked to click a photo with him.
In a video later released by Timothy Graham, the Snoop Dogg lookalike’s cousin, Lofton is heard saying, “You make me feel so small!” before quickly offering her phone to click pictures.
The flight attendant posted the images to her Instagram with the caption: “I had Snoop Dogg on my flight to Fort Lauderdale today. He’s the sweetest.’

But she was later roasted by Instagram users for assuming the unknown man was Snoop Dogg.
One user wrote: ‘Chrissy, sit down, I have something to tell you…’
While another wrote: ‘Why did he make you believe he was Snoop Dogg?’
One user also joked: ‘No, auntie, that’s his hood brother Snoop Dugg’
Fans also soon started saying that Lofton looked like Martha Stewart.
One user joked: ‘Bull Dogg & Martha Soupwart’, while another said: ‘Snoop and Martha from Temu’.
Graham also posted the video with the caption, “Man these people taking pictures with my cuzin cause they say he looks like Snoop Dog”

Graham also posted the video with the caption, “Man these people are taking pictures with my cuzin because they say he looks like Snoop Dog.”
He later took down the video, but it was shared on X, quickly went viral and was reshared across the internet.
At some point, the video reached Snoop Dogg himself and he posted it to his Instagram with laughing emoticons as the caption.
It is not the first time that someone has pretended to be a rapper in public. In 2022, Rio de Janeiro resident Jorge Toledo went viral for his striking resemblance to Snoop Dogg.

Snoop Dogg finally heard the video in February 2020 and joked, ‘I found my cousin in Brazil’
Toledo said he initially gained recognition as Snoop Dogg’s doppelgänger after strangers approached him at a carnival in Rio de Janeiro and told him he reminded them of the rapper.
‘I’ve always had beautiful hair. At the fair they flat out said I looked like Snoop. It didn’t really matter to me,” he said. “I like him, but I’ve always listened to Michael Jackson more.”
The married father adopted Snoop Dogg’s hairstyle and became a social media star.
“I made and posted braids,” he recalls. ‘It became a meme. My friend posted a video. Snoop saw it.”
Snoop Dogg eventually caught wind of the video in February 2020 and joked, “I found my cousin in Brazil.”
The hip-hop icon’s doppelgänger later had his Instagram account shut down in July, but a court ordered the network to reactivate it.
