Snoop Dogg Gogeta shoutout and celebrity fans

Post by Dalesy » Mon Jul 01, 2013 10:58 pm

Okay, so Snoop Dogg did an AMA on Reddit (basically a Q&A session with the fans for those not aware), and was asked his thoughts on Dragon Ball Z. This was the result:

So, as awesome as that is on its own, it got me thinking. Are there any other celebrities or famous people who have a noted affection for Dragon Ball?

James Marsters who played Piccolo in Evolution but most notably played Spike in Buffy and Angel was a fan of DBZ before he did DBE.

Kofi Kingston the WWE wrestler said that one the designs for his t-shirt was influenced by Goku face and hair.

FYI, it's now Snoop Lion.

At the B.E.T awards they refereed to him as Snoop Dog. So it doesn't matter

Some dude called Frank Ocean wrote a song called "Pink Matter" which contains the refrain:

That soft pink matter
Cotton candy Majin Buu
Close my eyes and fall into you
My god she’s giving me pleasure


Now, correct me if I'm wrong, but I believe that Mr Ocean is referring to the Female reproductive organs in his lyrics, thereby apparently comparing them to Majin Buu.

Go figure.

Is it just me or does it seem like almost every rapper like to reference DBZ in their songs?

Goku didn't die in GT. The show sucked him off so much, it was impossible to keep him in the world of the living, so he ascended beyond mortality.

I always side eye the people who say "Now my kids/today's kids can experience what I did as a child!" Nigga, who gives a fuck about your childhood? You're an adult now and it was at least 15 years ago. Let the kids have their own experience instead of picking at a corpse.

That's actually not bad. A lot better than some mainstream stuff out there.

Goku's back... decent. That one above was meh, beat was terrible. But I thought this was about celebs and DBZ. I know Justin (BLURRRGGHHH) Bieber watches Kai and enjoys it.

The day he makes a song about DB-DBZ-DBZ KAI is the day I go to jail for beating up a celebrity.

Here are celebrities that I know like db-Dbz-DBGT. Souja Boy, Linkin park, Cleveland Browns HB Peyton Hillis, Wu-Tang Clan, RZA, and most important Akira Toriyama!!!!
