Thank you internet for once again reminding us all how stupid you can be. The latest proof: Snoop Dogg (or Snoop Lion or Snoop Sabertooth Tiger or whatever), Iggy Azalea and Nick Young’s ongoing social media war.
Brief backstory: ETOnline posted pictures of celebrities without makeup and Azalea was one such celebrity. Snoop Dogg took it upon himself to send out what he thought Azalea looks like with no makeup:
Needless to say, it was not well received. Iggy had some choice words to respond, the best being this now-deleted tweet:
More back and forth, comparing Iggy to White Chicks, more Twitter rants, yada yada. Then Nick “Swaggy P” Young, Azalea’s boyfriend , got involved and decided to stand up for his girl (well done, Swaggy P).
Then Twitter promptly told him to shut up and sit down.
So far, there’s no response from Snoop Lion Dogg, but you can be sure he’s concocting some hilariously stupid response on Instagram.
In all seriousness, these Twitter beefs are so dumb. I don’t understand why Snoop felt the need to call out Iggy in the first place. Did they have a preexisting beef? Who knows. Maybe replying to Snoop once was okay, but turning this into a giant feud for the whole world to see just seems silly. This happens way too often with the rich and famous, and while it’s entertaining for a period of time, ultimately everyone gets bored with it and moves on. It’s time for Snoop and Iggy to move on as well.
Oh, and make sure to tell Swaggy P so he doesn’t embarrass himself again.
