Rapper Snoop Dogg reacted to Johnny Depp’s victory in the defamation case against Amber Heard by sharing a viral video.
On Instagram, Snoop posted a video of a man, apparently a coach, celebrating his team’s victory in a way that made it a viral meme. “Bag secured,” he captioned his post.
In April, an unidentified woman withdrew a civil lawsuit she filed against Snoop Dogg accusing the American rapper of sexual assault and battery after attending one of his concerts in 2013.
The lawsuit was dropped two months after it was filed in the Central District of California and days before Snoop Dogg, whose real name is Calvin Broadus, was to perform at February’s Super Bowl halftime show near Los Angeles.
The woman was identified as Jane Doe and described as a dancer, model, host, and actress who had worked with Snoop Dogg. The musician, however, said that the woman never worked for him.
The voluntary termination also dropped charges against all other parties named in the lawsuit, including Snoop Dogg’s business entity.
“It is not surprising that the plaintiff dismissed her complaint against the defendants. Her complaint was riddled with false accusations and deficiencies,” a representative for Snoop Dogg said in a statement to Reuters.
Matt Finkelberg, a lawyer for Jane Doe, did not immediately respond to a Reuters request for comment.
Snoop Dogg rejected the allegations through a spokesman who called the claims “simply without merit,” and characterized them as part of a “self-enrichment racketeering scheme” ahead of his Super Bowl performance in February.
