Snoop Lion, formerly Snoop Dogg, has confessed that he'll never be a real Rastafarian because he'll never be able to give up pork.

The rapper-turned-reggae star, 41, explained: "You gotta understand, I was fed this sh** from a baby. I believe I was eating meat from six months old.

"My Mama said I threw down that bottle fast and said: 'Hand me some of that meat'.

"Me and porky pig, we agree with each other."

Snoop's new album, Reincarnated and accompanying documentary of the same name are out now.
