Snoop Dogg, at 51, is an avid fan of Game of Thrones, while Emilia Clarke, aged 36, counts herself as a fan of Snoop Dogg.
The rapper behind hits like “Drop It Like It’s Hot” and the actress renowned for her portrayal of Daenerys Targaryen in GOT crossed paths backstage after Snoop’s recent concert at London’s O2 Arena.
During their encounter, Snoop showered Clarke with praise, hailing her as an amazing actress with a beautiful spirit, expressing his willingness to protect her character’s dragon eggs anytime. Clarke responded with humor, quipping, “Yes! Can I get that in writing?”
Later, Clarke took to Instagram to share a photo and video of their meeting, dubbing Snoop Dogg as “The man, the myth, the legend,” describing the encounter as a life-altering moment for her teenage self and her present-day self alike.
Snoop Dogg’s concert marked a milestone of 25 years in hip-hop, where he was joined on stage by various artists he has collaborated with over the years. However, Clarke wasn’t the only celebrity to grace the backstage area after the show.
Joining the star-studded lineup was none other than David Beckham, aged 47, accompanied by his sons Roman, 20, and Cruz, 18, who paid a visit to the renowned rapper.
Snoop and Beckham’s friendship spans three decades, rooted in their shared love for winning, hard work, and family values.
Their bond runs so deep that Beckham even made an appearance on Snoop’s former reality show, “Father Hood,” back in 2007, where they attempted to introduce soccer to Snoop’s children.
Reflecting on their enduring friendship, Snoop reminisced about how far they’ve come, seeing each other’s families grow and evolve over the years.
During their backstage reunion, Snoop seized the opportunity to offer Cruz, who recently turned 18, a belated birthday gift and imparted invaluable advice on navigating the music industry, given Cruz’s aspirations as a singer and musician.
