Snoop Dogg has said he is ready to invest in Celtic Football Club - and would even take on being the club mascot.
The Grammy-winning rapper has revealed that he would be 'crazy not to' put some of his millions into the Parkhead club.
He said the story of his pal Ryan Reynolds buying Welsh club Wrexham has inspired him to do something similar for the Hoops.

In an interview with the Sunday Mail, he said: “I love what Ryan has done with Wrexham – it’s just a great story.
“Investing in a sports team has been something I have been looking at for a long time – if the chance came to invest in Celtic, I would be crazy not to take a look at it.
"I have watched so much soccer in Europe but I have never seen fans like the Celtic fans. There is something so special about them.
“There is a reason why their fans are talked about across Europe – the best players and coaches in the world tell you there is nowhere like Celtic Park and I want to be a part of that.
"Their mascot is a hound – you couldn’t make that up.
"Snoop Dogg becomes Hoopy the Hound – that’s gotta be a match made in heaven. The headlines write themselves."
