Ana Navarro did not hesitate to provoke Snoop Dogg with an extremely “sarcastic” comment about his performance at the inauguration event.

Ana Navarro Stirs Controversy with Sarcastic Jab at Snoop Dogg’s Trump Event Performance. Ana Navarro called out Snoop Dogg for performing at a pro-Trump event, sparking a fiery debate on The View. Find out what she said and how others responded.

Ana Navarro’s Sharp Critique

During a heated discussion on The View, Ana Navarro criticized Snoop Dogg for his recent performance at a pro-Trump inauguration event, calling him out with a sarcastic remark. Navarro likened the rapper to a “trained seal,” accusing him of flip-flopping on his stance toward the former president.

Navarro reminded viewers of Snoop’s 2017 criticism of Trump, including the controversial “Lavender” music video, which depicted a mock assassination of a Trump lookalike. “Donald Trump hasn’t changed; you have,” Navarro said, highlighting her disappointment in Snoop’s apparent shift in values.

Snoop Dogg’s Defense of Trump

Snoop Dogg has softened his stance on Trump in recent years, particularly after Trump pardoned Michael “Harry-O” Harris, the founder of Death Row Records, in 2021. In a 2024 interview, Snoop expressed his gratitude, saying, “I have nothing but love and respect for Donald Trump.”

This newfound respect seemingly influenced Snoop’s decision to perform at the Crypto Ball, a pre-inaugural event attended by Trump supporters. However, the move has left some of his fans—and critics like Navarro—questioning his motives.

Mixed Reactions on The View

Not everyone on The View panel shared Navarro’s criticism. Alyssa Farah Griffin defended Snoop and other artists who choose to perform at presidential events, saying, “I don’t come for the artists. If Barack Obama can show up for Trump, why shouldn’t Snoop Dogg?”

This sentiment echoed rapper Nelly’s earlier defense of his performance at Trump’s inaugural ball, where he stated, “I’m not political… I think you should do your homework and figure out what best helps you.”

Navarro’s comments also sparked reactions online, with former co-host Meghan McCain criticizing her remarks and reposting backlash on social media.

A Divisive Debate

Ana Navarro’s pointed critique of Snoop Dogg reignited a broader conversation about the intersection of politics and entertainment. While some see Snoop’s performance as a betrayal of his past convictions, others argue that artists have the right to make their own decisions without judgment.
