“Now, OK, I was trying to imagine Snoop as a granddad. So how many grandkids do you actually have?” Jennifer asked.

“Actually, I have a total of 12 grandkids,” Snoop responded, as Jennifer seemed taken aback and asked, “12?!”

“Yes, yes I do. And they’re different ages, ranges, sizes and I love them all the same way,” Snoop said.

“Actually, my oldest grandson, his birthday is today so I’m on my way to his birthday party when I leave here,” Snoop continued.”He’s going to be 9 years old, that’s Zion Broadus.”

When Jennifer then asked what the grandkids call him, Snoop answered, “Well, [Zion] was the first one to name me. He used to call me Papa Noop, because he couldn’t say Snoop, so he started calling me Papa Noop. And then as time went by, he learned how to say Snoop, so now I’m Papa Snoop.”

If you missed it, Snoop explained why he turned down a huge amount of money to post naughty content on OnlyFans.
