Snoop Dogg

Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr. otherwise known around the world as rapper Snoop Dogg, got his name from his childhood moniker, Snoopy. But unlike the cartoon character he was named after, Snoop was always getting into trouble as a kid, even joining a gang at a young age. He and his bodyguard were accused of killing a rival gang member, Philip Woldemariam but were both acquitted on self-defense. These days, Snoop is busy smoking pot and hanging out with Martha Stewart. Yup, you read that last part right.
