Snoop Dogg Files for Divorce
Associated Press ^ | May 25, 2004 | ANTHONY BREZNICAN

LOS ANGELES - Snoop Dogg is getting a divizzle. The rapper/actor has filed for divorce from Shante Broadus, according to papers filed with Los Angeles Superior Court on Friday.

They have been married since 1997 and have three children: Corde, 9; Cordell, 7; and Cori, 4. He is seeking joint custody.

Snoop, born Calvin Broadus, cited general "irreconcilable differences" for the breakup.

"The only thing I want to say is Mr. Broadus hopes that the divorce can be as amicable as possible," Snoop's attorney, Robert Nachshin, told The Associated Press on Monday.

Snoop, 32, co-stars in the new movie "Soul Plane," which opens Friday. He also has appeared in the movies "Baby Boy" and "Starsky & Hutch," starred in MTV's "Doggy Fizzle Televizzle" comedy show and helped popularize new slang that adds a lot of unnecessary Zs and Ls to words.

He first made a name for himself more than 10 years ago, rapping about street violence, gangs, sex and marijuana. Recently, he has embraced the pimp style popular with many rappers while branching out into hosting porn videos (some filmed in his own backyard, according to his web site) and other sexually explicit material such as the "Girls Gone Wild" series.

Gee, I wonder... could this have contributed to the marriage's breakdown? Nah! Silly thought.

Heavens. And to think how perilously close I came to not living long enough to witness this: The New American Renaissance. < /sarcasm>

"three children: Corde, 9; Cordell, 7; and Cori, 4."

Must be a story as to why people would pick such similar names for their children. Maybe "Cor" stands for "heart" or maybe some numerology mumbo-jumbo. Anybody know?

When you're stoned out of your effin' mind twenty-four/seven, three hundred and sixty five: having almost exactly the same name for all three kids nearly triples your chances of getting it right, whenever you call after one/all of 'em. :)

That may explain why Mrs. Dogg sent Snoopy to the Dogg pound.
