Snoop Dogg wants back into the UK after being banned, and he's trying to get David Beckham, Paul McCartney and, uh, John Lennon to help him out.
The Doggfather, according to the Mirror, has contacted his boy Becks (who appeared on his reality show) as well as Sir Paul to enlist their influence in letting him back into the UK. He got 86ed from the UK after that insane airport slap-up a couple years back.
Of course, Snoop says he's also trying to get Madonna (not a UK citizen) and John Lennon (deceased) to help him out.

with obama now as president will this become the new role model to aspire to for black youth, or will it be the prison culture thuggery this snoop idiot represents? Look at where it got them all this last decade and a half?
Please follow Obama as a true hero, not this snoop zero...he will keep the black man down because he makes money with black people being held down, like jackson and sharpton and simmons...figure it out black people, do your homework like obama did and become somebody.
down with gloryfying prison culture and its garb and droopy drawers look

How is wearing baggy pants glorifiying prison? Because it is a black man wearing it, and all black men will end up in prison? Its a fashion. Just like those tight as can be jeans and shirts that the white boys were. And now the white boys are wearing the tight jeans sagged with the small and tight shirts. This screams, GAY so it is glorifying being gay? At least when a boy wears the baggy clothes you may see a little boxer short here or there, but not much else, but the white boy look shows way more. Which from seeing how tight those pants are isn't a good thing. You should make sure you have something to show before trying to show it.
I am white and will take the baggy look any day over the "I am gay but will never admit so look at me" look.

tlo - see below. Maybe this will answer your question. The below is an excerpt from the New York Times and is common knowledge to most.
First of all, the baggy pants, or saggin?, as it is called,
originated with prisoners, who were not given belts, so their pants
sagged. In addition, many hip-hop-inspired fashion labels, starting
with Cross Colors and Karl Kani and now with Sean John and Rocawear,
began making strides in the marketplace and culture by designing jeans
cut specifically for blacks. (Other labels designed for whites were
often too tight, so people bought them several sizes too big to fit
better.)

If the Brits have any brains, they will make the Snoop Dogg ban permanent.
