Snoop Dogg is terrified of horses.

The 51-year-old rapper has admitted he’s never filmed with the animals in any of his music videos or movies over the years because he finds them too scary and he has no idea where his phobia came from.


He made the revelation in an episode of his YouTube series “Double G News” during his chat with guest Tiffany Haddish, who revealed her childhood dream of wanting to raise horses on a farm — prompting the hip-hop star to confess: “I’m scared of horses.”

Haddish then asked: “What? As big as you are?”


Snoop told her: “To this day, too. I don’t know why I’m just f—ing scared of them … [I’m] so serious. You ain’t never seen me in a scene with a horse. I’ve been in a scene with ostriches, iguanas, all kinds of s—. Ain’t never been in a scene with a horse, like, get that motherf—er away from me. I don’t know why!”

He went on to reveal his wife Shante Broadus doesn’t share his fear and actually had her own horse for some time because she loved riding so much. However, Snoop refused to go anywhere near the animal.

When Haddish joked the rapper may have fallen off a horse in a previous life, Snoop said: “I think I may have been the Headless Horseman [in my past life].”

He went on to say: “I understand what a horse means to people. Maybe one day somebody can introduce me to a baby horse. … A little jacka– or something that I can learn how to be around.”
