Snoop Dogg says emotional goodbye to beloved family member after tragedy
Snoop Dogg's beloved dog - given to him as a birthday gift from Wiz Khalifa - has died.
The rapper expressed his sadness in two Instagram videos following the loss of French bulldog Juelz. Wiz Khalifa gave his friend the pooch in 2014 as a present for his 43rd birthday.
But in a video yesterday, Snoop, now 53, told the fans the upsetting news. Sitting in the front seat of his car, soundtracked by Weldon Irvine's Morning Sunrise, the hip hop legend shared his grief. The father of four, from Long Beach, California, wrote: "Rip @juelzbroadus [crying emoji]Thank wiz for giving him to me.(sic)"
The rapper then shared a second video, which featured a montage of Juelz with Snoop and his family and friends over the years, with Wiz Khalifa and Charlie Puth's See You Again playing over the top. He wrote: "Miss my dogg @juelzbroadus (sic)"

Juelz had his own Instagram account, which had thousands of followers and documented his adventures with his famous owner over the years.
Meanwhile, Snoop - who has another French bulldog, Frank - recently admitted he is keen to open a food stall at Celtic Park, the Scottish home of his favourite soccer side Celtic.
He told Scotland's Sunday Mail, which is our sister title: 'There has always been the opinion that food at sports stadiums is never good but that ain't got to be the case.
'People know that Snoop is a cook and I would love to bring a pop up burger to a sports stadium to show fans that food at stadiums can be good. It's got to be Celtic Park man, I mean where else am I going to bring it.
"The secret to a good burger is the love in the preparation. The ground beef has got to be mixed with some secret spices, then add a good quality cheese and some maple cured bacon. The Celtic fans are gonna love it, and to make sure they are just right, Snoop is going to be serving them himself.'
But Snoop has no interest in offering his food to Celtic's great rivals rangers. He said: "Am I going to bring my burgers to Rangers as well? Nah, I think we will give that a miss!'
Snoop revealed back in 2012 that he wanted to buy shares in Celtic after watching the Parkhead side beat Barcelona in the Champions League in November that year.
At the time he said: "I got a lot of interest in soccer. It's not a new thing for hip hop stars to invest in sports teams but it is a new thing for hip hop stars to invest in soccer teams...I see how passionate Celtic fans are about their team and I could see myself making an investment if any of the board wanted to sell...I want to bring a bit of Snoop to things."

Dumped Love Island stars spark romance rumours as they cosy up on night out
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) DUMPED Love Island stars sparked romance rumours as they cosied up on a night out. The pair didn't find love in the ITV2 villa, but enjoyed a night out on the outside - with some familiar faces. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Love Island's Malisha and Remell cosied up on a night out Credit: instagram 4 They smiled and danced along as music played Credit: instagram 4 Malisha arrived alongside Emily and Yasmin as a new bombshell trio Credit: Shutterstock Editorial Malisha Jordan and Remell Mullins were both bombshells in the latest series. Malisha, 24, shared an Instagram story of herself and Remell, 24, from a night out. With music playing in the background, the pair sat together and smiled while dancing along. Fellow dumped Islanders including Blu Chegini, Shea Mannings and Caprice Alexandra joined them for the get together. Malisha was one of a trio of bombshell girls who entered the villa, alongside Emily Moran and Yasmin Pettet. During her time on the show, Malisha clashed with fellow villa girl Meg Moore. Namely, over co-star Dejon Noel-Williams - who is coupled up with Meg. After a recoupling, Malisha and Toni Laites were left vulnerable and at risk of being dumped. Both went on a date with new arrival Harrison Solomon - with only one returning to the villa with him. Harrison opted for US star Toni, meaning that Malisha was therefore dumped. Love Island star dumped by bombshell Harrison in cruel twist She said following her exit: "I don't regret anything, I did what I needed to do as a bombshell. "Sometimes the reactions were a bit uncalled for. "I did go into the first chat with an open mind and I said I don't want to have any arguments. "Then it just got heated. I'm not here for the drama… a lot of it was miscommunication. "Dejon was telling her one thing and telling me another. It was a mix up that wasn't necessary. They act like they're not closed, but they are closed off." As for Remell, he and Shea, 25, arrived together as bombshells on Day 3. He coupled up with Alima Gagigo - only to later be axed in a brutal double dumping. Taking to Instagram afterwards, Remell wrote: "And just like that… I'm officially out of the love island villa. What a mad, unforgettable ride. "First off, thank you to every single one of you who's supported me—whether you were backing me to find love, keeping up with the show, or just curious from what you've seen online—I'm genuinely grateful." "My journey might've been shorter than expected, but I walked in as me and walked out as me. No regrets," he continued. "I got to meet some incredible people, make real bonds and live out something most only dream about. "Seeing my name in headlines has been surreal to say the least—but trust, this is just the beginning." "I'm walking out with my head high and my heart full. Can't wait to show you lot what's next 🤞" he concluded, before signing off: "Big love always". Love Island airs on ITV2 and ITVX.

Love Island hunk sparks concern as fans convinced he's suffered painful injury – did you see it?
Click to share on X/Twitter (Opens in new window) Click to share on Facebook (Opens in new window) LOVE Island fans are convinced Conor may have suffered a painful injury before the show after spotting a clue on the show. The rugby player, 25, recently sparked concern after he showed off his pearly white gnashers while in the villa. Sign up for the Entertainment newsletter Sign up 4 Love Island fans noticed Conor's missing tooth on the right upper row Credit: Eroteme 4 Some viewers think it may be a result of a rugby injury Credit: Eroteme 4 Many viewers have defended Conor's natural teeth Credit: Eroteme Eagle-eyed fans were quick to spot a tooth missing from his upper right set and asked whether it might have happened on the show. One viewer wrote: "Not to be rude in the dental situation?" along with a picture of Conor and his missing tooth. But many fans took to reddit to explain that the missing tooth was likely a result of him playing rugby. This person shared: "Dental implants are very expensive and the process is long. He might not mind missing a side tooth which is fine! Genetic condition or a rugby injury perhaps? It's really not a big deal or anyone's place to judge." A second said: "He's played full contact rugby for years, I assume that was the cause. From following other players, they won't get a permanent fix until they retire from rugby because the chance is high it will just get damaged again." "Conor's teeth actually give his face character, they suit him. They are clean and look nice. Also he's a rugby player they tend to lose teeth it's high contact," a third commented. Another added: "He's a rugby player. There is literally no point getting your teeth done before you retire. My husband was missing his front tooth from rugby when I met him…I sorted that straight out ha!" While several other people defended the star's natural teeth. This viewer said: "It costs a fortune to get dental implants for regular people. He's attractive in any case. Better than the Turkey teeth." "I'd rather have real teeth like this than those piano keys the rest of them have got in their mouths," someone else fumed. Love Island star sparks fears she'll quit the show after tense bust-up saying 'she's going to walk' This person posted: "Teeth are unique to people? You're being rude. We don't all have turkey teeth! He probably lost it with rugby or whatever but yeah.. his teeth are unique to him." Conor's time in the villa hasn't been completely plain sailing after love interest Megan was dumped from the villa during a shock public vote. Since then, actress Megan has revealed that Conor slid into her DMs in the past. She told heatworld in an interview: "It's so funny, right? So on day one, Conor told me that he followed me on Instagram four years ago, and I never followed him back. "But then since coming out, I've seen that he follows me on TikTok and he's actually commented on one of my TikToks. "Again, I've not followed him back or even realised he had commented on one." She laughed: "So, yeah, it's nice that he's still trying four years later. "It's worked out for him now, I suppose." Eagle-eyed fans went wild over the theory that Megan and Conor knew each other before entering the villa - after photos seemingly showed them at the same nightclub. Old snaps show Megan with a pal in a night club, while another picture supposedly clocks Conor in the same club long before they entered the ITV2 dating show. The speculation comes after Megan was voted the least favourite girl by the public after an ugly split from Tommy. The Irish star was booted out the villa after finding herself in the bottom three girls, along with Shakira, Megan and Toni. The brunette bombshell's departure followed days of drama after she cracked on with Conor while in a couple with Tommy.

This is Paris's coolest flea market – here's why it's a must-visit
French style – whether it's fits, furniture or trinkety things – is the definition of chic. But you won't find the best gems in mega-chain stores or fast fashion shops: you'll find them with a good old rummage in a flea market. As you'd expect, Paris is full of flea markets, and it can be tricky to decipher which are the biggest, best and when they're all trading – that's why we've just updated our brilliant roundup. So, what's our favourite flea market in Paris? It's Marché aux Puces de St-Ouen! But calling it just a market wouldn't really be fair. As our Time Out Paris writer Alix Leridon puts it, 'Marché aux puces de Saint-Ouennot … is like a whole other world.' This place is pretty huge – and famous, too (it features in Woody Allen's Midnight in Paris). Marché aux Puces de St-Ouen actually comprises twelve covered markets and five different shopping streets, spread over no less than seven hectares. Dauphine Market is the biggest of the bunch, and is also arguably the prettiest and most eclectic (so head here if you're browsing and not after anything specific). It's nestled under the glass roof of the main hall, and to find it look out for Futuro House (the massive, orange saucer-shaped spaceship thing). This place has been open since 1991, and today is home to around 150 different sellers. You'll find seventeenth and eighteenth-century antiques alongside stalls selling vinyls, prints and clothes. If you're book-shopping, head to the Passage – that's the place to be for rare editions and retro copies of classic works and lovely art books, as well as enough postcards to fulfill your wildest collector dreams. But there's plenty more than that to explore at this super-flea. Have a read about it in more detail on our page here. Check out our roundup of the best flea markets in Paris.
