Marijuana connoisseur Snoop Dogg (Snoop Lion? Snoopzilla?) has revealed that he’s also something of a history buff – though his sources would probably not be approved by your high school history teacher.
During a recent interview with a British journalist working at the New York Post, Snoop Dogg waxed lyrical about his love for boob-filled fantasy series Game of Thrones.
However, like a man who reads Playboy for the articles, Snoop’s not a GoT fanboy for the hotties, no – he’s all about the history.
After adopting a “plummy” accent, the D-O-double-G told the journo:
“I watch it for historic reasons, to try to understand what this world was based on before I got here.”
Uh…huh. I mean, Westeros is like the past in that there are swords as weapons, and no iPhones, but it’s different in that there are fire-breathing dragons and it’s entirely fictional.
“I like to know how we got from there, to here, and the similarities between then and now,” Snoop said.
Snoop Dogg has officially sipped too much gin and juice.
And what has the series taught him about this world of ours? “That kings still rule and a bitch fucked everything up, in every situation!”
Well, there you have it. A condensed history of the world up to the present day, by Snoop Dogg.

Umm, GRRM said he was inspired by the English war of the Roses.
Um, inspired doesn't even mean loosely based on. It just mean it sparked an idea in his mind. GoT is not even remotely like the war of roses, apart from the bit where everyone is fighting over being in charge. If that was the only standard then Star Wars is also a historic retelling. Nothing in GoT is real and it is 100% fiction. Unless you believe there were actual zombies, dragons and magic.
Somehow I doubt Snoop Dogg knows that!
