Snoop Dogg Bleeped on Live Golden Globes Stage – Here’s What He Really Said
During the 2026 Golden Globes on Sunday, January 11, rapper Snoop Dogg caused a stir when part of his live presentation was censored on television. The rapper took the stage to present the first-ever Best Podcast award, bringing his signature energy to the ceremony.
As he walked out, Snoop entered to the sound of his 2004 hit, “Drop It Like It’s Hot.” He immediately addressed the audience, saying, “Stop the music! I need y’all to loosen up a little bit. This is the double-G’s, the double-G’s, it’s the Golden Globes, and you’re with the D-O-double-G. So, make sure you enjoy yourself, don’t be no stiff biff! Move around a little bit!”
He then talked about the significance of the podcast category. “Best Podcast is a very important category for me, because, before podcasts, I was what y’all would listen to driving around in your cars. To you podcasters, you better hope I don’t get in that game,” Snoop said. “Shout-out to the Golden Globes for putting the podcast category in this awards show. And shout-out to all of the podcasters. You all are winners, but the real winner is…”
At that point, Snoop said something that was bleeped during the live broadcast. According to Entertainment Weekly, who were present at the ceremony, he said, “I’m high as a m***** right now. Y’all had me here too damn long!”

Snoop then announced that Amy Poehler had won the award for her podcast, Good Hang. Later in the evening, Teyana Taylor was also censored after saying, “Oh my God, this s** is heavy,” when accepting her award for One Battle After Another.
Beyond the Golden Globes, Snoop Dogg has remained active in music. In 2024, he released a new album titled Missionary, entirely produced by Dr. Dre. The project is seen as a spiritual follow-up to his debut album Doggystyle and features high-profile guests such as Eminem, 50 Cent, Method Man, and Sting. The album received positive reviews for both Snoop’s lyrics and Dr. Dre’s production.
Snoop also released a surprise album, Iz It a Crime?, in May 2025 and has continued to be recognized for his influence. In April 2025, Time Magazine named him one of the world’s most influential people. Cannabis has been a well-known part of his public image since the start of his career. Despite a brief period in 2002 when he claimed to quit, Snoop has openly admitted to heavy usage over the years. In 2023, he teased giving up smoking again, though he later clarified it was part of a promotional campaign for a smokeless fire pit.
Snoop Dogg’s brief censorship at the Golden Globes highlights both his candid personality and the challenges of live television. His presence on stage reminded viewers why he remains one of the most iconic figures in music and pop culture.
