British pop star Ed Sheeran has made a jaw-dropping revelation about a wild encounter with American rap legend Snoop Dogg, one that left him temporarily blind.
The “Perfect” singer took to TikTok to share a short clip of himself hanging out with Snoop, who could be seen rolling what appeared to be a blunt. In the caption, Ed Sheeran wrote, “Last time I smoked with Snoop I lost my ability to see.”
While it’s unclear exactly when the smoke session took place, Sheeran’s humorous and candid admission has gone viral, sparking laughter and surprise from fans across the globe. The British crooner is not exactly known for his party lifestyle, making the revelation even more unexpected.
This isn’t the first time Sheeran has opened up about his experiences with celebrity smokers. In a previous interview, he described Nigerian superstar Burna Boy as one of the “heaviest” weed smokers he’s ever encountered. The two have worked together on several tracks, including Stormzy’s UK chart-topper “Own It” and Burna Boy’s emotional hit “For My Hand” off his Love, Damini album.
As for Snoop Dogg, his love for marijuana is legendary. In a hilarious twist last year, the West Coast icon sent fans into a frenzy when he announced he was “giving up smoke.” The buzz quickly fizzled after it turned out to be a clever marketing ploy for a smokeless stove brand; a classic Snoop move.
Ed Sheeran’s blunt confession adds another layer to his laid-back, everyman charm, and proves once again that when you hang with Snoop, you better be ready for a trip, literally.
The moral? Don’t try to keep up with Snoop unless you’re ready to lose more than your cool.
