Snoop Dogg Busted for Marijuana in Norway

Snoop Dogg Busted for Marijuana in Norway - as part of the news series by GeoBeats.

While most celebrities eventually move way from their party going ways, that statement doesn’t apply to Snoop Dogg. The famous rap artist was busted with 8 grams of marijuana and a substantial amount of cash while passing through an airport in Norway. Snoop Dogg was in Norway to perform at a musical festival but a drug detection dog stopped the rapper in his tracks. His violation fine totaled nearly $9000. Snoop Dogg is an avid supporter of marijuana, being the same guy who wanted to discuss advocating marijuana legalization with President Obama. In his words - “I would change the aroma of the room and then we could start conversing after we had that aroma change. You know what I’m talking about?”

This is the rapper’s second time in 2012 getting caught with marijuana. This past January, at a border checkpoint in Texas, officials discovered the drug in Snoop Dogg’s tour bus, charging him with a misdemeanor offense. Even though Snoop has a medical marijuana prescription in California, that privilege doesn’t apply out of state or out of country.
