Snoop Dogg smokes a BLUNT following dinner with Don Cheadle… after setting internet alight by declaring he was ‘quitting smoking’
Snoop Dogg smoked a blunt in the backseat of a black SUV after dining in Santa Monica on Wednesday night, nearly a week after fooling many into believing he was giving up the habit.
The 52-year-old rap superstar had enjoyed a hearty Italian meal at Giorgio Baldi’s with his famous friend Don Cheadle.
The Oscar nominee — who turns 59 next Wednesday — was all smiles after hanging out with Snoop (born Calvin Broadus).
Don and Dogg have been friends for at least five years since he won a $100 chili-eating contest in 2018 when he appeared on VH1’s Martha & Snoop’s Potluck Dinner Party.
Cheadle wore a black leather jacket over a matching T-shirt and jeans, as well as a shiny white pair of sneakers.

Meanwhile, the 16-time Grammy nominee showed off his love for cannabis in a shiny green jacket, white durag and sneakers, as well as matching Death Row AOP $88 ‘Weed Hoodie’ and $69 ‘Weed Joggers.’
Last Thursday, Snoop – who has 185.6 million followers on social media – issued a shocking, down-to-earth statement: ‘I’m quitting smoking. After much thought and conversations with my family, I decided to quit smoking. Please respect my privacy at this time.”
On Monday, Dogg revealed that he was only trying to go viral to hype the ad campaign for Solo Stove’s $349.99 limited edition ‘The Snoop Stove – Bonfire 2.0 + Stand’.
“I know what you’re thinking: Snoop! Smoke is actually your thing!’ the Long Beach resident clarified.
‘But I’m done. I’m going smokeless. Solo Stove fixed fireplace. They take the smoke out.”
By Thursday, Snoop shared a video of him happily smoking a blunt and dancing along to Peso Pluma and Jasiel Nuñez’s 2023 song Lagunas before saying to the camera, “Happy Thanksgiving!”
Dogg will next produce and star as Jaycen Jenning in Charles Stone III’s football comedy The Underdoggs, which hits U.S. theaters on January 26 for Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer.
The That’s How We Ballin rapper will also produce and voice Scratch in John D. Eraklis and Tara Nicole Whitaker’s long-delayed animated musical Pierre the Pigeon-Hawk.
