DL Hughley Calls Out Snoop Dogg: “Look in the Mirror” Amid Trump Inauguration Backlash

By -




Comedian and political commentator DL Hughley isn’t holding back when it comes to Snoop Dogg’s controversial performance at an event tied to Donald Trump’s inauguration. After the rap legend faced intense backlash from fans and critics alike, Hughley weighed in with a pointed message: "Look at the man in the mirror."

From Outspoken Critic to Surprise Performer

Snoop Dogg, once one of Trump’s most vocal celebrity critics—going as far as mocking him in music videos—stunned the hip-hop world by taking the stage at a post-inauguration event. Fans who had cheered his previous anti-Trump stance felt blindsided, with many accusing him of selling out.

DL Hughley’s Sharp Response

Never one to bite his tongue, Hughley took to social media to call out the Doggfather’s apparent about-face. “If you stand for something, you gotta stand all the time,” Hughley said. “You can’t talk about what’s wrong with a man and then go perform for him like it’s all good. You gotta look at the man in the mirror.”

Snoop Fires Back: “I Do Me”

Snoop, unfazed by the criticism, defended his decision, insisting that his performance was about music, not politics. “At the end of the day, I spread love,” he said in an Instagram video. “I’ve performed for presidents before. Ain’t nothing changed.”

A Divided Fanbase

The moment has sparked intense debate within the hip-hop community. Some argue that music and politics should be separate, while others believe that artists should stay true to their words, especially when it comes to figures as divisive as Trump.

Will Snoop and Hughley Keep the Smoke Coming?

With two outspoken cultural figures going head-to-head, this feud might not be over. Whether Snoop chooses to respond further or let the criticism roll off his back remains to be seen. But one thing is clear—when it comes to politics and hip-hop, the conversation is far from over.

    Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has vowed to shut down news network Al Jazeera following the passage Monday of a  sweeping law  allowing the government to ban foreign networks perceived as posing a threat to national security. Netanyahu said he intended “to act immediately in accordance with the new law” to stop the Qatari-based news outlet’s activity in the country, according to a post on social media platform X following the passage of the law. Al Jazeera Media Network, which has produced dogged, on the ground reporting of Israel’s war against Hamas in Gaza,  slammed the decision  in a statement, vowing it would not stop the network from continuing its “bold and professional coverage.” The new law gives the prime minister and communications minister authority to order the temporary closure of foreign networks operating in Israel – powers that rights groups say could have far-reaching implications on international media coverage of...

  Trump and Harris during their September presidential debate. Forbes found at least 100 billionaires in the corners of either former President Donald Trump or Vice President Kamala Harris—with many more backing Harris—but unlike the world’s richest man Elon Musk, who stumps extensively on Trump’s behalf, many have elected to watch from the sidelines, like Warren Buffett and Mark Zuckerberg. Key Facts Our breakdown records 76 billionaires supporting Harris and 49 backing Trump so far (see the lists for both below). Many more billionaires may still financially back a candidate, but their donations won’t be learned until after the election, when final Federal Election Commission reports are issued in December. Billionaires leaning toward Harris may seem incongruous, since she often criticizes Trump for advocating for policies favorable toward billionaires—but there are practical reasons why the ultra wealthy may favor Harris. A  letter  signed by more than a dozen billionai...
