Rapper Snoop Dogg admits he smoked cannabis in the bathroom of the White House after tricking security guards.

Dogg, 42, whose real name is Calvin Cordozar Broadus Jr, said he once puffed on marijuana in the bathroom at the official residence of president Barack Obama in Washington DC, reported Contactmusic.

"(I've smoked) in the bathroom (of the White House). Not in the White House, but in the bathroom," he said on a TV chat show.

The 'Young, Wild and Free' hitmaker tricked security into thinking he was going to the toilet and he even managed to persuade them to let him light a napkin.
 

"I said (to the security guards), 'May I use the bathroom for a second?' And they said, 'What are you gonna do, number one or number two?'

"I said, 'Number two.' So I said, 'Look, when I do the Number two, I usually, you know, have a cigarette or light something to get the aroma right'. And they said, 'Well you know what? You can light a piece of napkin.' I said, 'I'll do that," he added.
