In an appearance on Red Table Talk, Snoop Dogg revealed that the reason he lashed out on Gayle King is because he wanted to protect Kobe Bryant's wife Vanessa. As previously reported, shortly after Kobe's death, during an inteview with Lisa Leslie, Gayle King bought up Kobe's past sexual assault case. Snoop went off on social media, calling King a “funky dog haired b*tch.” After receiving backlash, he later publicly apologized.
Snoop explained, “I wanted to make sure that what I said was said the right way. And I wanted to make sure that the message was across that we love Kobe and be respectful of Vanessa and those kids. That’s what the whole intent was. To protect that woman and them babies over there because she’s still grieving and let’s give them that respect.” Jada: “Right.”
Snoop’s Red Table Talk appearance will air today on Facebook Watch at 12pm est.
